Why Plus-Size Models ARE Beautiful

The model industry has been accepting plus size models for all kinds of magazines. This is great to finally start seeing in magazines, instead of focusing on the women who look starved which was never all that attractive. This may be the world changing for the better and showing society that you don't need to be stick thin to look beautiful and rock a bikini. So many girls have grown up self-conscious about their bodies, making themselves sick just to look like a photoshopped model on the cover of a playboy or Victoria's Secret magazine.

For one, let's talk about Jada Sezer who is absolutely gorgeous. Not only does she look hot af in this picture, but looks totally normal and happy with herself. Plus, this may just be the angle but she doesn't even look that plus size to me. She looks pretty average sized, healthy, normal and happy. This is the kind of woman who should be posing in front of the camera.

Or how about Ashley Graham who got chosen to be in Joe Jonas's music video, "Toothbrush". Not only does she look like a goddess but a woman who is completely comfortable in her skin. Her everything is on point in this photo... everything. I believe that she is the very first plus-size model to be in a music video which I find to be a little sad. I mean why can't women as gorgeous as Ashley not be able to be in a music video? Because her waist is too big, that's ridiculous.

I think yesterday's models are just so old fashioned. Young girls today need to be able to understand that just because you aren't a size two doesn't mean you're any less beautiful than a size 16. I'm not necessarily one to speak for bigger built women considering I am the opposite. But I know people who are bigger than I am but their personalities are just the same as mine. Yesterday's models need to change into today's models which may even lessen eating disorders. One of the main causes for eating disorders are when young girls are hating their bodies because they feel imperfect compared to a slimmer model.


One of my favorite models who I don't think is slim but beautiful is Kate Upton. She just looks beautiful no matter what she is wearing. She isn't skinny and she isn't plus sized either oh I know... she is normal! That is why I look up to her because she looks so happy and healthy. Plus she looks sexy in like every photo she takes. Kate has done so many photoshoots and looks so amazing every time. She is what every young girl should be looking at. She isn't stick thin nor unhealthy, she is a combination of plus and beauty.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
