The Miseducation of Beauty

Is this how we’re representing women now???

Here’s another question: Is this what YOU look like?

These pictures are from the new issue of Love Magazine, they are suppose to be the most beautiful women in the world and the most perfect bodies in the world. **Laughing on the inside** Get outta here. I can’t imagine how this is perfection and they all look the same. Shouldn’t we be celebrating perfection in women that actually exists? You can’t say that a supermodel, or a celebrity for that matter, has the most perfect body in the world when its their JOB to maintain a certain look. “Perfection” is relative anyway because if I say that my body and my look is perfect for me then that’s IT, that also means that its gonna be perfect for you too.

The editor of Love Magazine, Katie Brand said, “it was interesting studying them all in the same pose”…. **Hand goes up in the classroom** These pictures look like they should read, “I’D RATHER GO NAKED THAN WEAR FUR”, otherwise what then is the purpose of these images? Celebrating beauty? OK, maybe IF that’s your intention but here they’re just being depicted as perfect. Interesting? No. Beautiful? YES (I’m not a hater).  Models? YES…. but what else are they suppose to look like???

Beauty is INTERESTING and MYSTERIOUS… beauty is VARIETY and WARMTH… and beauty isn’t always PERFECT….

… but hey, maybe that’s just MY house…

Fur….. cruel or fashion?

So… in Lew of the poll posted, I thought it would be a good idea to get some real feedback on how people feel about fur. We’ve all seen the ” I’D RATHER GO NAKED THAN WEAR FUR ADS, RIGHT?

Whats do you think about this? Its OK if you don’t feel any remorse for aninals…. and even though some people wear fake fur… is it still promoting fur as a whole??

Weigh in ladies! Can Fashion Exist without fur?
