HELLO DEAR FABULOUS ONE...YES I'M TALKING TO YOU, CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOUR AND TELL YOURSELF HOW FABULOUS YOU ARE. OF COURSE NOT IN AN ARROGANT/EGOTISTICAL TYPE OF WAY, BUT IN A 'I AM FRIGGING FABULOUS' KIND OF WAY.......
YOU FINDING THAT HARD?...DON'T WORRY I DID AT THE START.....
SO OKAY I WOULD LIKE FOR YOU TO GRAB A PEN AND WRITE DOWN ATLEAST 3-5 FABULOUS THINGS ABOUT YOUR LIFE. HERE ARE A FEW OF MINE FOR EXAMPLE: (IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER) 1. ROOF OVER MY HEAD 2. LOVING FAMILY AND FRIENDSHIP CIRCLE 3. MY LITTLE PURPLE LORRY CAR THAT GET'S ME FROM A-B. WHATEVER IS ON YOUR 'FAB' LIST CAN YOU NOW STICK IT ON A WALL OR FRIDGE, SO YOU ARE ABLE TO VISIBLY SEE IT EVERY SINGLE DAY. IDEALLY I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO WAKE UP TO IT AND HAVE IT AS A FIRST THOUGHT IN THE MORNING. ONE TINY LAST THING I'D LOVE YOU FOR TO DO (SORRY FOR THE DEMANDS) IS TO GRAB ANOTHER BIT OF CLEAR PAPER AND DRAW A BIG FAT CIRCLE ON IT, THEN NAME YOUR CIRCLE 'HAPPY SPOT'. YOU CAN WRITE EXAMPLES OF THE ONE THING THAT IMMEDIATELY MAKES YOU SMILE IN YOUR MIND AROUND THE SPOT OR KEEP THE SPOT SURROUNDINGS CLEAR. WHAT INSTANTLY MAKES YOU THINK OF HAPPINESS? (E.G. MINE IS SEEING MY BAE SMILE (SICKENING I KNOW)), THEN STICK YOUR HAPPY SPOT (WHICH YOU CAN COLOUR) ALSO ON YOUR WALL/FRIDGE/ETC. NOW YOU HAVE TO TAP THAT VERY SPOT (YOUR HAPPY SPOT) EVERY SINGLE MORNING AND SMILE.
AGAIN SORRY NOT SORRY FOR ALL THE DRAMATIC DEMANDS, BUT I HEAR AND EXPERIENCE SO MANY PEOPLE AROUND ME WHO LACK SO MUCH CONFIDENCE. WHETHER THAT BE OF THEIR BODY IMAGE OR GENERAL OUTLOOK ON LIFE. THERE ARE SO MANY OCCASIONS WHERE I WANT TO SHAKE THEM AND SAY 'YOU ARE FRIGGIN FABULOUS!!', BUT NO ONE (LIKE ME) CAN REALLY TELL YOU TO BE CONFIDENT BY DOING X, Y AND Z, AS CONFIDENCE HAS TO COME FROM WITHIN YOU OR QUITE SIMPLY LOOKING AT YOURSELF DIFFERENTLY, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I HAD TO DO......AND I DON'T GIVE A CRUMBS IF IT ALL SOUNDS CHEESY BECAUSE IT BLOODY FRIGGIN WORKS!
I ALSO KNOW THAT ALOT OF MY BODY CONFIDENCE STEMS FROM THE CLOTHES I CHOOSE TO PUT ON MY BODY AND SKIN. PIECES THAT ARE QUITE SIMPLY ABLE TO MAKE ME FEEL FABULOUS INSIDE AND OUT WHEN I STEP OUTSIDE MY FRONT DOOR (I KNOW I OVERUSE THAT F WORD!!). THIS BLOUSE FOR EXAMPLE IS AN EPITOME OF THAT VERY FEELING. IT'S JUST SO 80'S JOAN COLLINS FROM DYNASTY THAT I INSTANTLY FEEL IN LOVE WITH IT. THE SHEER SHINE HAD ME BOUNCING ALL AROUND LONDON WITH A HUGE CHESHIRE CAT SMILE ON MY FACE. ME BEING A HUGE FAN OF THE GLITZY GLAM OF THE EIGHTIES, WAS SO WAS THRILLED TO FIND THIS VINTAGE BARGAIN PIECE. TALKING OF SHEER I'M ALL ABOUT THE SHEER TIGHTS AT THE MOMENT, AS I'VE FOUND THAT ADDING A SHEER OR FISHNETS TO YOUR LOOK IMMEDIATELY CREATIVE SOMETHING MORE DETAILED AND FUNKY.
OH YOU CAN SEE THAT I'M STILL OBSESSED WITH DENIM, AND COULDN'T RESIST CONTRASTING THE TEXTURE OF THE SHINY BLOUSE AGAINST THE THICKNESS OF THE VINTAGE WRANGLER DENIM. OOOOPS YEP THE CHUNKY TOUGH BLACK BOOTS ARE BACK WITH THIS LOOK (I DID WARN YOU THAT YOU'LL BE SEEING ALOOOOT MORE OF THEM!). ACCESSORY WISE THE FOREVER GIVING FAUX FUR STOLE WAS VITAL (BECAUSE IT'S FRIGGING FREEZING) AND ME BELOVED CIRCLE 70S SHADES ADD ANOTHER LEVEL OF FABULOUSNESS DON'T YA THINK.....
SO THERE YOU HAVE A STARTER INSIGHT INTO 'HOW TO FEEL FABULOUS'. AFTER A WHILE YOU DON'T NEED TO LOOK AT ANY LIST OR PRESS A HAPPY BUTTON BECAUSE YOU JUST FEEL IT IN YOUR SOUL. (I'M SUCH A HIPPY!!) XXX
