Clothing!!!

I will be the first to admit that I am a slave to shopping... especially clothing. I will also be the first to admit that sometimes it's hard to feel good about yourself when fashion is not on your side that season. But you know how you always have that piece of clothing you love.... and even when you feel down in the dumps (especially after shopping and finding nothing), wearing it makes things seem not quite so bad? You know what I am talking about... it always seems to be that sweatshirt with like 90 holes in it - cause it's comfy... Well what if the next time you were making yourself feel better, you were also sending a message - both to yourself and the world- about how you want to feel? Sending a message that: you won't be defined by a size; that you wont be limited by what others think; that you want people to not just accept things for what they are, but to really think about them. Here are 4 sites you might want to check out, if for no other reason then to get you thinking

So: Buy it, Wear it, Love it!

We Are Proud -At its heart,WeAreProud® is a movement.

"In 2010, WAP introduced a high end label dubbed “Body Politic" which embodies the idea of clothing with a higher purpose. Each product is meticulously chosen for it's fabric quality and keeps the company's policy of being hand printed but adds to this authenticity by also being CUSTOM TAILORED.
