Hey everyone! I’ve been getting some messages lately asking why I haven’t made an outfit post in a while. Last week, I came across a really awful page about myself and my weight here. A lot of really mean things were said about me, but what worries me the most are the people who are setting unrealistic, dangerous, and very unhealthy goals for themselves. At the time, I thought it would be best for everyone if I stopped posting photos of my outfits, so people would stop using them for such terrible purposes. There were a few days where I was really depressed over all of this. I’ve since realized that I can’t control what people use my photos for, and that since I still enjoy sharing my personal style posts with you guys, that it would be silly to let this stop me. I’m happy with who I am, so I shouldn’t let something like that make me feel any differently.

21. darcyallan said: You’re not only beautiful inside & out, you grace the world with your beautiful creative talents in fashions and in photos. You’re unique, special and such a role model to many girls around the world! Don’t let these horrible ppl tarnish any of that
22. with-drops-of-jupiter said: your body and style is beautiful of course, but your soul matches it completely. your face and expression is enchanting, and never listen to those who feel the need to lash out on others to feel better about themselves.
23. briarashes said: OMG! I can’t believe people have the time to do crap like that. Just so you know you are just fabulous! And so is your pink and purple hair and have amazing clothes (I want your closet). People in this world can be incredibly awful sometimes, and that comes out of jealously….
24. degraala said: I’m so sorry that happened to you, but I think it’s important to note that those people are probably sick, even if that doesn’t excuse what they said.
25. milanstarr said: you are so beautiful! don’t let people bring you down; you’re perfect just the way you are. wow. that’s cheesy. but true!

31. maidensheart said: What horrible things to say! You’re so beautiful and I’m so glad you’re not letting this stop you as I love seeing all your lovely outfits.
32. grittttty said: People like that are always looking to bring down others because they are insecure with themselves. You’re lovely!

37. vampiresarecreeps said: Ohhhhh that’s horrible :( but I’m glad you won’t stop doing something that you enjoy, because we love your style! Did you comment on the thread and confront the posters? I’m not sure if it would have mattered except for standing up for yourself.
