Yes, ladies. You are NOT a cow being herded to the slaughter house. Although you might feel like it sometimes. Especially if your 4-year-old head buts you in the derrière while he pushes you with his hands saying "moooooove mommy!". Then another offspring yells "Push harder Adam! Mommy has two tummy's!". Um. Really boys? But we love them, don't we? This blog post is not about cows or kids making fun of their mum or going to the slaughter house. I use this analogy because as women we often have immense pressure to look a certain way and if we don't we feel like over-sized human beings. My personal mission is to do two things: 1. Find a need, fill a need. 2. teach women that we are NOT a number. We are NOT a size. That's it. Plain and simple.
When women come into my boutique and it's their first time experiencing LuLaRoe I tell them right off the bat (after a warm greeting while trampling through my boys play room--AKA our house):
"You are not a number. You are not a size. Wear what makes you feel beautiful, confident and comfortable. just. as. you. are."
Usually women pause, smile...then say something along the lines of "of course!". But it's when I urge her to try on a different size & a new style then she walks out of the changing room with a whole new outfit. Her face face says it all. Her posture changes and how she walks. There's never a need for words at that moment. Which is a good thing because as soon as she gazes into the mirror there are no words for how she feels. The clothes are that soft. Most importantly they feel and make her look even more gorgeous! She feel sexy, beautiful and like she could conquer the world!
What many women don't know about fashion is this: Wear what makes you feel amazing. Yes there are some rules and guidelines (pretty basic and I'll cover in another post) and while I wouldn't recommend breaking these rules they're definitely bendable. Wear that hot pink leopard printed skirt with neon orange stripes up top. Go ahead--BE DARING! Discover who you are in your clothes. Worry about what you think and feel.
Close your eyes. Jump up and down. Do a little shimmy. How do your clothes make you feel?
Like you're a cow? CHANGE! If they make you feel like royalty or a badass then walk out that door woman! Conquer your day in style! Let'em stare at you. You're million dollar gorgeous! :) And don't forget to take a pic and let me know how you rocked your personality today!
