Amalie The Label - Chamika Linen Blend Bustier Double Tie Back Midi Dress in White

For years, I was told not to accept my body. That accepting it, with its softness, stretch marks and bumps, was somehow wrong. People told me I looked better when I was unwell, as if thinness was the only thing worth striving for and confidence could only come from fitting into some narrow beauty standard. But that is complete rubbish. Because right now, I am the heaviest and softest I have ever been but also the most confident I have ever felt. I hope these images inspire you to take photos of yourself and really see your beauty. Your body is more than just a shape. It is love. It is stardust and everything wonderful. It will change throughout your life, and that change might feel uncomfortable. But every scar holds a story. Every line a chapter in your book and every roll is a reminder of nights spent with friends, laughing on the couch over pizza. You do not owe anyone thinness or prettiness and your worth has nothing to do with your appearance. We need to stop chasing society’s impossible idea of beauty and start creating our own. Our bodies are meant to be different, and that is what makes them special. So keep showing up for yourself, even when it feels hard. Embrace the changes because growth comes through discomfort. And evolving into the person you are meant to be is worth every step along the way. 📸 by the incredible thebarefiles 👗 showpo
