I will be honest here, I am not in love with the way I look at the moment. I have some extra pounds from a year of truly living my best life. I haven't stuck to any type of workout regimen and I have been eating like I am still in my 20's (hi slower metabolism - you can go get back to where you used to be any time now thaaanks). Even though I feel that I am thriving in most aspects of life at the moment, loving the body I am in is not one of them.
Beginning of March, I forgot to hit "pause" on my Rent The Runway Unlimited subscription and was suddenly thrown back into the wonderful world of renting everyday clothes to spruce up my closet. Even though it was an accident I think it happened at the perfect time. I have been struggling with outfit creativity just because things don't fit or I don't feel comfortable in how I look in them.
So when my subscription renewed and my boyfriend said "Hey! I want to get dressed up and take you out!" instead of feeling dread, which that feeling went through me while prepping for our trip to NYC, I got excited. I knew even though I wasn't feeling comfortable or confident in items in my own closet, I knew Rent The Runway had something that would. And it did.
When this John + Jenn Maurice dress arrived, I instantly loved the print and so on trend. I loved the olive green color and knew it would compliment my hair color well. I was just a little nervous about the fit. A bodycon dress while feeling a little down on myself was a bold choice but I can say that it made me feel like a million bucks.
I am here to tell you if you are second guessing yourself because you are not sure if you look good enough - always wear the dress. In the mean time, I will be here trying to take my own advice too.
