BODY SHAMING : Stand for yourself :: Swimsuitforall 2017 summer collection

Did you ever stop and think about how often we are told to change our appearance? Magazines constantly offer tips about how to lose weight “in days,” appear slimmer “instantly,” and hide our “imperfections”… without actually knowing anything about us, much less our appearance. This is one example of body-shaming, and it is everywhere.

Body shaming is defined as inappropriate negative statements and attitudes toward another person's weight or size. It can also reach into the discrimination against individuals who may be overweight. In particular, there are negative attitudes in the media and elsewhere about celebrities who are "too fat" or who have not gotten rid of "baby weight" in an appropriate amount of time. A backlash against body shaming has resulted in the coining of the term itself and attempts to bring a more positive attitude toward diverse body sizes and styles.

From a human resources standpoint, body shaming in the workplace could lead to a lawsuit. From a parenting standpoint, it is important to be sure that your children are not being victimized for being a few pounds overweight. Children who are cyber bullied may be too embarrassed to tell their parents, and can be ridiculed in social networks. Body shaming, fat shaming, and other bullying can create negative self images, and if your kid turns out to be the bully you could end up on the wrong end of a lawsuit.

 Sitcoms so frequently use overweight characters’ bodies as the basis of many of the show’s jokes. It has become the norm to criticize aspects of our bodies as some type of bonding experience with friends – if we all hate our bodies; it somehow makes us feel connected and united. Body-shaming (criticizing yourself or others because of some aspect of physical appearance) can lead to a vicious cycle of judgment and criticism. Messages from the media and from each other often imply that we should want to change, that we should care about looking slimmer, smaller, and tanner. And if we don’t, we worry that we are at risk of being the target of someone else’s body-shaming comments.

In case you skipped something, you are perfect and beautiful JUST the way you are. 
Identify who in your life is body-positive. Spending time with these people can be especially helpful while you are struggling with your own internalized body-shaming, and help you view yourself – and others – more positively.
We spend so much time witnessing advertisements about how to make our eyelashes millimeters longer and how to get whiter teeth that it’d be nice to counter some of that by celebrating what we do have. Maybe, despite your body image struggles, you love a new hairstyle you discovered. Maybe you’ve noticed how much stronger you feel with balanced eating. Find something physical or nonphysical that makes you YOU and celebrate it every day.

4 Tips On How to Travel with Style : CABINZERO



Summer is here, and with it comes the joy of traveling abroad for a long vacation. Most men have it simple; they just need to pack a few shirts, trousers, shorts, and an extra pair of shoes. However, while most women look forward to hitting the beach and exploring new places, they can’t help worrying about packing all the clothes they will need for the trip. The idea of trying to manage countless outfits and accessories for a single trip can seem intimidating and can sour your mood before a trip. If you are worried about packing for your trip, don’t sweat it. This article has you covered for the summer. Here are 4 tips that will make it simple for you to look stylish and chic while you enjoy your summer trip:

Don’t forget your makeup. If you usually wear it, do bring some on your trip. You don’t need to go all out; just stick to the basics. Instead of wasting space, bring an elaborate contour kit or eye shadow palette. Bring a few tubes of lipstick or lipgloss, some bronzer, liner, and mascara. Remember to bring plenty of sunscreen and enough lotion to keep your skin moisturized for the duration of your trip.



While on holiday, it's advisable to simplify your beauty routine. The same principle applies to your hair. Bring tiny, travel-sized containers for your shampoo, conditioner, and other styling products. You can also find travel-sized versions for most perfumes, lotions, and even soaps. Also, there are mini styling devices that are perfect for traveling. You can find mini curlers or straighteners that won’t take up much space in your luggage. If you have short hair, just let it air dry instead of bringing a dryer with you. It’s also important to keep things simple, so stick to ponytails, braids, and buns for fuss-free, low maintenance hairstyles.

Double-duty shoes are a must. When packing for vacation, bring comfortable shoes. They should be easy to walk in, and they definitely shouldn’t be painful, nor should they leave blisters on your feet. If you’re confused about what shoes to take with you, stick to three pairs: sneakers, sturdy sandals, and heels. Your heels should be simple to walk in (stilettos don’t count). You can also add a pair of sturdy flats if you don’t wear sneakers. Numerous flats and sandals adorned with beads, stones, shimmer, and other stylish elements complement a variety of outfits. Buy long-lasting, high-quality shoes that you can continue wearing throughout your trip.

Consider unconventional approaches: Purchasing locally can significantly simplify your life. For instance, countries in the Middle East, Asia, and Central America have plenty of jewelry stores. You can buy a number of unique and gorgeous accessories, such as beaded jewelry, bangles, and wooden bracelets, from a number of different holiday destinations. You will help local businesses this way and bring home some wonderful souvenirs once your trip is over.



The same idea applies to clothes. Pack a few comfortable clothes you love. Buy the rest from local markets. Most of the clothes found in Asia and Africa are cheap, pretty, and colorful. You will have a wonderful time wearing them on your holiday and can even take them home. If you are traveling abroad with your family or a group of friends, consider sharing your clothes among yourselves, especially if you wear similar sizes. Even if your sizes differ, you can still share accessories, scarves, makeup, and toiletries. You can even make use of shampoos and soaps provided by your hotel. In case you’re traveling with kids, it’s essential that you do a little research about the location so you know what to pack for them. Lastly, pack all your things in a large bag or suitcase with a sturdy zipper. You should also have a large carry-on to bring all your essentials and souvenirs back home. 

This can be made possible with The 'Classic' ultra-light cabin and travel bag in Urban Camo features a large 44-liter capacity, side compression straps, top and side handles, a front zipped pocket, an inside zipped pocket, and mesh pockets. Classic 44L Ultralight Cabin Bag—Urban Camo is perfect for a summer trip. The bag is comfortable to carry, stylish, and offers ample space for lightweight travel.

This bag is much cooler than the proper military camouflage prints. CabinZero is one of our most popular lines.

RACISM IN THE FASHION INDUSTRY

Being black is never a crime, I can go over and over again about how this affects my career as a black girl. Trying to be on top, I work twice harder so I can fit in. I am done trying to fit in, I changed this 2yrs ago. I give my terms and conditions for working with any brand.

In the fashion industry racism has eaten into the system, its trying to change now but watch runway shows how many black girls photos are reposted on the Instagram pages by the top brands they work with. Now you might be wondering what I mean by black skin, I mean black people with the Dark colored skin. The light skinned ones get to work since they look a little like the white people.

I am a fashion model and lifestyle blogger I collaborate with brands, keep to the terms and conditions and still yet some brands still find it difficult to feature black bloggers on their website and Social Medias. Quality work, well written post, much sales gained and It all stops at the blog.
Most magazines and photoshoots featuring black models and white models together give room to the white skinned person to stay in front. This is so wicked, I can not remember how my skin color offended anyone. The fashion world is full of white-washed runways and black is all an addition.
You keep hearing words like “We’ve already got a black girl,” “It’s not our creative vision,” “Our customer isn’t ready yet.” These are the excuses you get to hear time and time.

Do you know that there are white brands who only work with light and white skinned individuals? Yes. But the sad story is that even when the black brands come up they still go for white skinned individuals. This has been on my mind and If sharing will help how pained I am then so be it.

I wrote an email to an online clothing website, I use to work for and I asked why their Instagram page is white washed and I was replied that It is their management to decide.
It has been a long time view in the fashion industry. Everyone at one point have asked his/herself what the problem is? The black nation need to step up in everything, not just in the fashion industry.

In life, there are constants and there are variables. One of my constants is that I am Black; another is that I will be proud of that regardless of how those around me feel, but that doesn't mean I don't wish for a little warmer welcome in the fashion industry. And that speaks to the variables: I can’t control how people feel about people of color or how blackness is perceived. Fashion’s way of whitewashing cultures will hold us back until it begins to understand the subliminal messages it conveys every time women of color are left out of a runway line-up, and aren't represented in the pages of magazines or catered to appropriately in the beauty aisle. #lynettenylander

No matter where and how Far I go with my journey, after being born into a Christian home, being black is another  thing I will always love, be grateful and die with.
