Lol @FashIntern it's possible that's the reason, but I think really I used to be very self conscious about my butt full stop because I grew up with very modest dressing guidelines, so anything that would emphasise it or point out that I have one would frustrate me. But I think I'm learning to embrace it now - it may not be traditional figure flattery goals, but someone mentioned on the other thread that I shouldn't just focus on the parts of my body that I want to hide (like my lower stomach, upper arms & upper legs), but also the parts I like (such as my waist, bubble butt, long neck & nails). Does it sound weird to want to show off nails, lol?
@BlondeAmbition I actually just rediscovered an A-line skirt that I thought I had lost! I might do a WIW with it (I've commented in the past that I prefer to keep my knees & most of my legs covered, but this slightly above-the-knee length actually looks more flattering on my short height). I think the belt width really depends on the silhouette of the clothing in section -
an A-line skirt works better for me with a thin belt if it already has a medium width, structured waistband. If it doesn't, a wider belt can help create that. Anyway, I'll never know until I try, so time to experiment!
