Have you ever met someone or seen someone that you just have a girl crush on? You look at them and think "Wow. She's got some killer style." or maybe "Man, she looks good for her age." or "She is just so fun to watch!"
I have a
couple of these girl crushes. These are women that I honestly don't know but I just love to follow them. Not in a weird sleezy way. Just in a... wow... I-love-how-she-owns-it kinda way.
There's one actress that I am fascinated with. Ruby Rose. There is just something about her. She's beautiful, sure. But that's not it... she's so comfortable with herself. She just owns who she is and doesn't apologize for it.
She has this calm confidence about her.
I admire that calm confidence.
There's a woman I follow on Instagram. Her feed is called Silver Disobedience. She's an over 50 model. She wears her silver hair long and youthful. She has an edgy vibe about her and I just love how she owns her style.
There is nothing more attractive than a woman truly comfortable in her own skin. Owns her flaws. Wears what she wants and loves. And doesn't concern herself with what other people think. She's just happy being her.
These women inspire me to continue to work on myself. I've come a long way over the last 10 years... from a nervous, low self-esteem, why-bother kinda person...
to a confident business owner that is designing her life.
My life isn't perfect and I'm not perfect. I'm not trying to be perfect. I'm working on achieving that calm confidence to be exactly who I am.
Doesn't that sound amazing?
I'm starting a program that is part of the Style Club. It is called
Your Daily Style Boost. Starting February 1st, when you sign up, you will begin receiving daily emails from me with an easy, slightly stretchy personal challenge and lesson. A quick read and you're off to take on the day!
PS. I am a serious Disney fan. I visit Disney World 3 to 4 times a year. Oh yeah, I'm wanna of "those" people. But hey... I'm owning it. Here's what else... I LOVE me some Disney tunes. I have a Pandora station dedicated to Disney songs. They are truly inspirational. Don't believe me?
Well, just watch and listen to this amazing tune... "Try Everything" and be inspired...
