Saturday again? That means it’s time for your LiFE Weekend Round Up for Week 71! Let me just say this, in the immortal words of Destiny’s Child: I don’t think you’re ready for this jelly. For real, y’all. It’s been a good week for Lingerie Is For Everyone, with lots of excellent posts and pictures…
I have a complicated relationship with my legs … As a kid, they were forever mosquito bitten with skinned knees in the summer and trapped under scratchy tights in the winter. They were utility-only, forgettable, if not a little marred by rural life. As a teen they were strong and lean and thick from sports,…
I used to avoid mirrors. For years I was forced to stand in front of mirrors, bullied by narcissistic parents who only cared about the shame they felt my body brought upon them. My fat was their failure, a shame to be worn like a hessian sack on my head, their words like the toll…
It’s Monday/Funday once again, friends – you know what that means: time to slip into something more comfortable, set up that tripod and snap snap snap!
“I must have flowers, always, and always.” ― Claude Monet {CW: the complexity of gendered beauty, body image} I have fought my femininity for as long as I can remember. I wasn’t raised to embrace it because brains always trump beauty in my family’s collective philosophy. But can’t we have both? How am I in my…

Content Warning: Please be aware that this post features topics like weight, weight loss, body shame, etc. If those are challenging topics for you, please proceed with caution. Not the sexiest post, but an important one for me. I have been conspicuously absent in the weekly Lingerie Is For Everyone link ups for awhile now…
It’s hard for me to believe that we’ve all been doing this little lingerie meme for more than half the year! Next week is Week 32 and I couldn’t be happier with the participation and all the amazing people I have connected with over lingerie, of all things! Every week ya’ll knock my proverbial socks…

Welcome to the premier post of Lingerie Is For Everyone! For so long, lingerie has been called “unmentionables”. Well, Lingerie Is For Everyone is here to change that. Not only is lingerie completely unmentionable, it’s worthy of celebration! No matter your gender or sexuality, no matter the size or shape of your body, no matter…
Trigger/Content Warning: child abuse, verbal abuse, eating disorders, body dysmorphia I’d like to thank all of you who commented and tweeted kind and healing words in response to my post the other day about my anxiety about doctor visits and body autonomy. It was a hard post to write and share and it’s been interesting…
“…most writers, and most other artists, too, are primarily motivated in their desperate vocation by a desire to find and to separate truth from the complex of lies and evasions they live in, and I think that this impulse is what makes their work not so much a profession as a vocation, a true calling.”…
Fuck yeah give it to me, this is heaven, what I truly want.
Use your words, baby. Tell me what you want.
