Perfect Advice

"There is no such thing as personal style without self acceptance. There isn't a woman in the world that doesn't have body issues. You're you. We will find your style" - Stacy London
I always get asked, How can I be stylish if I don't look like a model, or how can I be stylish if I hate my shape so much? The question plagues me because I can't formulate the right answer without sounding too self-help optimistic, like "everyone is beautiful in their own way" or "beauty is from the inside". While I absolutely believe those statements are true, I really loved the way London's quote answered the question about dealing with body issues in a personal and achievable way. Carry this quote along with you for the best advice a stylist could ever give you!
