Everyone has days where they don’t feel so great. Usually I cope with those days by burrowing under blankets and wearing comfy clothes while snacking on forbidden foods. But sometimes you can’t hide away. There were errands to run and family events to attend. So here I was, with damp straggly hair, no makeup and bad skin running around Grey Lynn looking for baby clothing.

Yet looking at these pictures it seems my unattractive fat day was all in my mind. By dressing in a way that made me feel crazy confident I actually had a great time and didn’t feel self-conscious at all.

So my advice? Flaunt what you have and don’t let your negative thoughts ruin your day.
