Even in sweatpants & a sports bra.

Girls have this bad habit of not letting themselves believe or say that they're pretty. SO many of us are allergic to compliments- batting them away with denials or disbelief. Heaven forbid you sit in a circle of females and declare yourself attractive. You'll probably be automatically dismissed as conceited or obsessed with yourself.

But you know what I've realized? There's no beauty quota. Nowhere is it written that there can only be X number of beautiful women in the world, and the rest are shit out of luck. When you declare yourself beautiful you're not secretly saying you're more beautiful than someone else, you are simply.making.a.statement. And you shouldn't feel bad about speaking the truth.

You're not a bitch, you're not stuck up, you're not delusional. You're just beautiful.

“Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and it may be necessary from time to time to give a stupid or misinformed beholder a black eye.” Miss Piggy
I'll say it first... I'm fucking gorgeous. Your turn!
