I’ve always had a big butt. Even when I was 95 pounds in sixth grade, I had a big butt. So naturally I was thrilled to hear about the new trend this summer. Oh, didn’t you hear? Big butts are in for the summer! Last week the NY Daily News made the big announcement. Those [...]

Something revolutionary happened on Monday. Starting at the beginning of next year, the popular German magazine Brigitte will no longer hire models to pose for their magazine. The magazine announced today that they will now feature “real” women in their magazine in an attempt to combat what they perceive as the unhealthy effects of ultra-thin [...]

The other night I saw the documentary that is currently in theaters about the fashion magazine Vogue and it’s prominent Editor in Chief, Anna Wintour. I have to say that I really enjoyed the movie and found the subject matter fascinating. For those of you who don’t know, the character Miranda Priestly in the popular [...]

The Ever Shrinking Screen Actors Guild
Posted in Body Image, Celebrities, Culture, Fashion, Media and body image on January 26, 2009 | 4 Comments »
I was watching the SAG awards with a friend last night and after about a half an hour I turned to my friend and asked “Is it just me or are these actresses getting skinnier?!” I mean, actresses have always been small, but this is like a completely new kind of thin. I remember in [...]
“Slim Down For The Gown!”

One of my best friends is getting married and she recently pointed out to me that she and her fiance noticed how rail thin some of the girls who model wedding dresses are these days. She was particularly taken back with this designer and encouraged me to write about the intense pressure bride’s feel to [...]

Posted in Body Image, Culture, Fashion, Magazine, Media, Models, tagged Men's Body Image on November 11, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I stopped reading fashion and tabloid magazines a long time ago. Mostly because I found that they made me feel worse about myself rather than better. I have spoken to many women whose experience is similar to mine. In fact, many studies have shown that women’s self-esteem goes down after reading fashion magazines. But what [...]
“Plus Size” and the Normalization of Thin
Posted in Body Image, Culture, Fashion, Magazine, Media, Models, tagged Halloween, Plus-Size, Ridiculous Labels on October 27, 2008 | 16 Comments »
I was flipping through a flyer I received in the mail the other day for Halloween costumes and was honestly surprised when I came across pictures of “plus-size costumes.” Don’t get me wrong. I am all for costumes coming in all shapes and sizes (especially because traditionally they have been made for skinny girls who [...]
