This weeks Aussie Curve theme is "Vulnerable Side"... for me that is my arms, I hate having them naked, I feel very vulnerable when they are not covered. But this is why I am doing Aussie Curves, to take me out of my comfort zone :)
Meaning of "Vulnerable"
- Capable of or susceptible to being wounded or hurt
- Open to moral attack, criticism, temptation, etc
- (of a place) open to assult
I believe this one looks much better with the arms covered up...
Today I am wearing:
Cardigan: 'Autograph'
Tunic: 'Autograph'
Leggings: 'ASOS Curve'
Shoes: 'Vans' Not sure where, but know it was a shoe shop in Byron Bay
Headpiece: 'The Rainbow Shop'
Necklace: 'Markets'
Earrings: 'Gypsy Fair'

Thanks for your courage in posting this week. I think you look beautiful in each photos. The voice in your head is the only difference. Thanks for participating in this week's challenge. Every post - including yours - takes power away from that little voice.xx
ReplyDeleteI think you are gorgeous arms covered or uncovered and that is one very cute headband
ReplyDeleteI like your new blog :)
ReplyDeleteMy vulnerable area is my arms as well. I literally feel naked when they are exposed, which is only bedtime and after shower!
Yours look nice, shapely and smooth actually. If mine were like yours I would totally go sleeveless.
I used to think I needed to somehow learn to show them to accept them. Now I realise I can accept them but still not really like them.
It seems arms is a common theme for a lot of women, but noone should ever be offended by somebody elses arms - you look great, i love the leggings!
ReplyDeleteYou don't have "big" arms at all!! you look great without the jacket!!!!! You def do not need to hide behind it! :)
ReplyDeleteWith and without the cardigan you look great. Well done!

Thanks Elle, maybe over summer I might try and brave it over summer :)
DeleteI honestly would not think anything of your arms! You look lovely, and that floral headband is the shit! x
ReplyDeleteThanks Sophie, love my headbands, as for the arms a work in progress :)
DeleteI think with or without totally works. LOVE those leggings. Get those arms out in the world lady, I'm sure they'll appreciate the opportunity. ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Melissa, maybe this summer they might get out and about a bit :)
DeleteNo no no Jackie - the cover up draws the eye up and down your torso which of course elongates you and looks great. But you would get the same affect with a vest or something sleeveless - your arms are just arms, nothing more nothing less and if I saw you on the street the things I would be thinking are 1. great leggings and 2. AWESOME shoes!
ReplyDeleteThanks for that Rachel, slowly building up the confidence to wear sleeveless, maybe this summer might be the one :)
DeleteLooks great with and without the cardigan!
