Learning to love your body isn’t a linear journey Learning to love your body isn’t a linear journey and it often doesn’t have a clear and definitive end. I’ve worked for the better part of a decade on my relationship with my body. I’ve done a lot of work. I’ve honored her, encouraged her, I’ve chosen to see her as good. It’s been an intentional journey to really break down and know my body is good, just as it it. 

But just when I think I have evolved past being critical of myself I go to try on swimsuits and boom I’m back. This past weekend I went to try on swimsuits. It was a last minute decision and I just popped in a store. I talked to an associate and realized she was picking things and putting them into a fitting room for me. I could feel my pulse starting to race. Initially I was frustrated with myself for feeling insecure about trying on suits but then I remembered that this is a journey. I politely told the sales associate that I just didn’t think I was ready to try on. In the kindest way she said, it’s fine, I’ll mark some things down and when you feel ready just come back. 

I’m telling you this story because sometimes it’s easy to look at people who share their lives online and think they some how have mastered living themselves in a way that you can never achieve. The truth is that for many people it’s something we still struggle with from time to time.

Just remind yourself that like most things in life there is no medal for being the most secure person in the room. Give yourself grace and just repeat after me, my body is good just as it is.

Camo Athleisure and My Avocado Bag

The first fashion post I wrote was on athleisure outfits.  It was kind of the first post I had written that made me think, ok, maybe I can do this.  Before that post my blog was less than a hobby but that post really gave me the courage to see if I could really launch something that people would be interested in.  Turns out they were.

I love to dress up and wear fancy things but this is not  a daily reality for me.   I am in gym clothes many days because of my tight schedule between pick up and drop off.  I try, when I can, to get home, grab a shower and put on something more than yoga pants but it doesn’t happen every day.  Because of that I want to make sure my gym clothes are cute too.

Bonus is this is the season of comfy and warm so if we can make those things happen in a stylish way I am all in.

Sweater // Top // Leggings // Bag

I love camo for casual wear.  I don’t know why but it is such a fun print to me.  I really like that it combines several neutral and drab colors and you can pair it with a lot of things.  I prefer camo in bottoms rather than tops so this season I have a pair of leggings, joggers and a skinny pair of pants.

The Avocado Bag.

Let me tell you a little about my bag.  I saw a bag similar to this on a big retailers website.  I initially was going to order it and then I started thinking about Kayla and all of the amazing bags she has made me over the years.  I called her and asked if she wanted to make an avocado bag for me, so random I know, and she of course said yes.  You know you have good friends when you call and ask them to make random veggie bags for you.

This bag has turned out to be one of my favorites.  It is big and spacious and I bring it everywhere.  Bonus is that it’s canvas so I can clean it easily when it get dirty.

Real Life.

I am sitting here trying to think of an end to this blog post and I have to be honest with you, the endings are the hardest for me.  I do not know why but I struggle to end most of my blog posts.  So rather than forcing myself to come up with something cute to say I will end with this.  It’s ok to admit something doesn’t come easy for you.

Have a wonderful week!

XO,

Tippy
