So I just finished hanging up all my spring/summer clothes. Finally. While doing so, something my fiance said to me popped in my head. "You haven't been looking very feminine lately." When he initially said that to me, I wasn't offended. I defended myself and moved on. But lately, his comment has been pricking me in the eyeball. I lost a lot of weight recently, and consequently, none of my clothes fit the way they used to - which means that nothing is tight. So if I put two and two together in the enlightened fashion that I do, well fitting to tight clothing = feminine. Of course he's going to say that's not it or it's not what he meant, but it's really easy to read into the fact that I'm not looking feminine anymore because my clothes don't fit me like a glove. Call me crazy but I thought that you can look feminine no matter what if your hair is done, you have earrings in your ears, have makeup on your face, carry a purse, wear heels, and switch when you walk. But I guess that's not enough. I don't know if anyone has ever noticed, but Janet Jackson wears baggy clothes all the time, but still looks fancy fresh. But what I'm learning is that mister man doesn't like anything baggy on me.
There's a fine line I tell ya. I'm 27 years old and I don't wear tight revealing clothes like I used to. But yet there's always a way for a 27 year old woman to done tailor made clothes that give her the appearance of a nice silhouette. Unfortunately, I don't have tailor made clothing money. So what is a girl to do while she's broke and skinny? I guess suck it up and keep it moving while she tries desperately to gain weight all the while holding fast to her self-esteem. I'm beautiful no matter what and I have to remember that. Bump what everyone else says. Feminine or not, I'm me.

does it really mean tight? I think maybe because you don't have to get up and go out on a daily to go to work maybe you aren't putting forth as much effort in your day to day stuff...could that be it? because when you go to the hall or have a function you get dressed but maybe on the regular you aren't putting that jac pazzaz into things...i don't know...
you know me of all people is like the LEAST femine of all of us...
but today i actually got complaments on my hair, dress, eyebrows, like did you get your hair done, did you get your eyebrows done...to which all the answers are NO..
but what i did do is put forth effort to pick up accessories etc...
*shurgs*
i don't know i am just saying...you look good to me...but i too know jac and when jac is on it she's on it when it comes to the clothes, accessories, make up the whole nine...
so it might not be all about "tight"
just a thought
