MY POWER SILHOUETTE – FIT AND FLARE

Fit and Flare on Belle Meets World blog

Hey, hey, hey my strong, beautiful women! Thank you so much to everyone for the birthday wishes and the support as I recently announced the evolution of this blog.

As I said the other day, new content and focus is coming to the blog, but style will still be a part of my story – how can it not be? What I wear is what gives me my power!! Each and every day.

And that’s how I’ll talk about style in this new grown-ass version of Belle Meets World – with power and purpose. Because in my world, clothing gives me energy and character. I find strength in knowing exactly what works best for my body. Which brings me to today’s topic…

My power silhouette. There is nothing I feel more confident in than a fit and flare look. I’m talking about a tight top and a big circle flared skirt. When in doubt, I will always go for this silhouette – for work, for weddings, for special events, everything. It highlights my waist, minimizes my hips, doesn’t show too much skin and is perfectly girly – all things I personally like in a look.

Let me tell you – people notice. When I wear this outfit, I get more compliments than any other look I own. Today 3 women and 1 man stopped me on the street to ask me where this skirt was from and to tell me I looked great. This is not bragging. This is fact! Last time I wore it, the same thing happened.

So what it is it about fit and flare for me?? I think it’s because this is the silhouette that removes all my body insecurities – every woman has them! When I’m wearing this, I’m not worried about jiggly bits or panty lines or the parts I don’t like. They are all covered. I walk taller and focus on what’s important – not all the body image nonsense. I get shit done.

And while I’m learning how to be a grown-ass woman – one who loves herself and her body – boosting my power with a killer outfit gets me one step closer to who I need to be.

Do you know what your power silhouette is? Give it some thought! Consider what makes you feel amazing – then wear it, whatever it is, all. the. time.
