” You know I would talk to you if you were lighter, if your nose wasn’t so wide and if your lips weren’t so big”
Those words stung and crushed the little girl I was at 13. That comment came from a boy I had a HUGE crush on who I was hoping one day would ask me to be his girlfriend. I will never forget those words and how they made me feel. It took me a while to realize that not everyone is going to have the same opinions as me on who and what is beautiful. I realized that trying to fit into a mold no matter what you think you are suppose to look like is toxic and exhausting. So regardless of how you look whether you are black/brown/yellow/mocha/white, you are beautiful. Everyone has their own struggle and beauty isn’t only skin deep. Believing that first is key, everyone else will follow.
I came across these pics of “ethnic” dolls and made me think of the Band, as a few of my friends were called when we went to Toronto.
Check out how fly those outfits and the confidence those dolls are exuding. I decided to name each doll after the members 🙂

Perfect pic of The Band. We Rock!!!
We definitely do. Love love this pic!
Great post Win!!!! And that is very true…confidence is inspiring…we are all in some respect looking for affirmation from another and those who dont need that much are who we tend to look to…because we feel they have the answer…but we in truth should find that within ourselves…we werent born with manuals so no one really has the right or wrong answer…so dont suppress yours…
This is a great! I like this post. And screw that bastard. When people are not use to good things they don’t know what to do with it.
The Pic is HOT! I like me 🙂
