I try to be kind to it. Despite everything, it takes me where I want to go, it picks up my DD and snuggles her and hugs my DH. It may not look the way I want it to, but that is not a measure of its worth. I try to remind myself of this when I have to repurchase trousers to get ones that fit. Trousers are especially unforgiving to me.</p> <p>::Hugs:: and please be as kind to yourself as you would another member of YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1172166 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:45:08 +0000 amiable 1172166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous, and I feel exactly the same way about my body right now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1172165 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:44:53 +0000 Deborah 1172165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Totally understand how you feel:)&nbsp; But you look F A B U L O U S!&nbsp; That blouse is so gorgeous and the cobalt is divine on you.&nbsp;&nbsp; Hang in there, all will get back to normal but in the meantime just know that no one else would know and you do look wonderful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1172164 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:44:42 +0000 Anonymous 1172164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, don't let the stress get you down.&nbsp; You look ready for fun.&nbsp; I hope that it was a good day. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1172158 Thu, 20 Feb 2014 03:41:14 +0000 Day Vies 1172158@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always going to love love love cobalt paired with black and white.

Love that shirt, and booties, and wow for the nude hose! I feel your pain, as&nbsp; I too feel like&nbsp;my own body is&nbsp;undermining all my efforts to loose a bit of weight right now.&nbsp;I started&nbsp;a low carb diet on 5th Jan, and after some water weight of 7 pounds or so&nbsp;went&nbsp;off&nbsp;in &nbsp;the first 2 weeks, then all the process&nbsp;stopped, and even put on back 1 pound last week...so frustrating, but we'll keep on doing the right thing anyway, no?:-)</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1171313 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 12:32:12 +0000 Jaime 1171313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon I totally understand (and share)&nbsp;the feeling of your body being out of control, but from the outside point of view you look absolutely fabulous in your clothes, including this outfit!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-dalmation#post-1171311 Wed, 19 Feb 2014 12:30:07 +0000 Anonymous 1171311@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am sorry your body is fighting with you -- you look great, so I think you are succeeding in fably dressing the body you have now.

Time to wear a skirt with nude hose!</p> <p>Today's outfit started with my cobalt knit pencil skirt and nude hose. I then added my ivory and black dalmation print front wrap, hi-lo blouse. I love the print top with the colourful skirt. For footwear I decided to play up the cobalt colour and went with my cobalt/purple suede booties. I went with my black/white handbag and a ring for accessories.</p> <p>What do you think? Does this work together? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blouse: Dorothy Perkins Petite<br />Skirt: Cleo Petite<br />Hose: Hue<br />Booties: Aerosoles<br />Handbag: Danier Leather (thrifted)</p> <p>P.S. I'm going through a bad spot of negative body imaging right now thanks to my endocrine imbalance being completely out of control. Stress tends to affect my levels and as a result, despite watching every little bit I eat and going to the gym regularly again, I continue to put weight on. Some of my clothes aren't fitting as well as they did previously so it's making it harder to choose items and outfits that not only physically fit but also make me feel good. Don't you just sometimes feel like your own body is the enemy? Oh well….I know eventually everything will get back on track. Just having one of those moments, you know?</p> <p> </p>
