I gained 3 pants sizes after recovering from bulimia + excessive dieting. I'm still working on the confidence as a transmasc person, there's the added layer of being "too short" or "too soft" to be a man, but your videos have really been helping me. Thank you ❤
You're gorgeous! Not trying to compare or anything, but as a 23 year old female whose always been skinny, slim, slender, thin, started to feel self conscious around the age of 12-13. Plus, I have scars all over my body, from injuries, accidents... and that's my biggest insecurity. But sometimes, I dare myself. And sometimes, I feel comfortable in my skin. I'm still working on my self confidence, but thank you for making this video 💕
Omg I’m in the same place as you! I’m 19 and I’ve only recently been comfortable with showing the scars on my chest, though I’m still trying to push myself to wear stuff that shows the scars on my shoulders and arms. I’ve never met someone with the same insecurity, so lots of love to you❤
@@lovejessicablair How are you reacting when you wear those outfits, but people stare & make nasty comments ALL THE TIME ?😔 (I guess here in Germany it's even a bit worse when you try to express yourself as a chubby person😭)
As a person who lost a lot of weight in the last 3 years, you're videos and posts on instagram have really helped me embrace my body and just wear whatever I want. Really not caring at all about anybody or anything but my happiness really helped and it put me in a great mental space. Thanks a lot
i think i'm on the skinny side, but i've always been insecure of my stomach because it doesn't look like the perfect ones that all of my friends and influencers have... so i thought that low rise just wasn't for me. but you know what i did? i pierced my belly button, because my stomach deserves to be shown off too. i slowly forced myself to wear more low rise clothes and i love how i look... thank you so much for making this video, i think it'll be very helpful to many people.
As a plus size teen I look up to you more than my own mom and since I've been watching your content I've been able to get out of my comfort zones relating to my body. Thank you so so much. Pleas Keep making amazing content!
You are the hero we need and we deserve! Your giving old gals (42) like me confidence back!!! I lost weight went through some stuff and gained it back. I was fairly confident before when I was chubbier but after I put weight back on and the emotional stuff it really knocked me. I feel like I’m getting back to me now and your helping just by encouraging me to explore what I like! Thanks! Also you are so pretty and well dressed! Edited coz my ebullient flow of words came out in one massive long run on sentence.
I don’t wear low rise b/c at 5 ft tall, they make my legs look about 6 inches long, so I’m obsessed with high rise, which make me feel long legged…BUT, love the low rise on you!
Absolutely loved that intro. It really resonated a lot with me since I had a similar journey with my own personal style and hearing you say that sometimes you're still scared made me feel a lot better about how I have been scared recently now that the weather is getting warmer and I really want to try showing more skin this summer.
Hi Jess! Watching you really makes my plus size heart warm. I remember shopping for a prom dress in the maternity section of the mall and being so ashamed that I picked out the most middle age going-to-work black dress just to avoid the embarrassment. Being from an Asian country is much more traumatizing since the people normally are petite and skinny that clothes usually comes in freesize (XS-M). Thrift stores and Shein (no shame here) really opened up the opportunity for me to love clothes and have them fit my body type. Youre my inspiration for trying out styles that I wasn't comfortable to see myself in before. Thanks for existing in the internet 🥰
My struggle is being fat AND short. Most plus size clothing assumes the wearer is also super tall so all clothes end up being way too long for me 😭 I have such a cute sternum tattoo I wanna show off but every crop top I get comes down so low over my tummy that I have to tuck it into my bra if I ever wanna show skin. (Also pants and maxi skirts go past my ankles 🥲)
I was always insecure about my body as a child and as a teen, always wearing baggy clothes to hide my stomach and big thighs. But for the past two years I've gained more confidence and started to make a wardrobe that reflects my personal style. Now whenever I enter a thrift shop I first look at the skirt section because I'm not afraid to show my legs anymore. Also, finding your channel was a blessing
Pale skin, dark body hair girlie here (that hates shaving). Wearing bathing suits is difficult, showing off my arms is difficult. I love love love your attitude towards wearing clothes that make you feel good regardless of what others think, and I thank you for being so intentional about sharing that bravery, for being a model :)
People getting more confidence has to be the biggest glow up fr, it’s so beautiful to see ppl being fashionable and wearing whatever they want! Also I looove your fit inspos 🫶🏻💘💘
You are a comfort person to me. Please never stop posting videos on youtube and also on insta and tiktok. I absolutely love your content and your vibe. You're just so sweet and warm and beautiful.
Thank you for always just being you. I had a life altering surgery on my stomach and it was/can be mentally intense for me. You are helping me break down the fear and just embrace my skin. Love you 🤟💕✨
omg tysm. as someone who is most likely considered fat this helped me. overtime ive gained a bit of confidence in my body but im still insecure. im very short for my age and especially as a teen i look like im 10. and my stomach is big plus i have whats considered an “outie” belly button so i feel insecure wearing crop tops (unless with high rise jeans/shorts) and low rise jeans, and sometimes tank tops bc my arms look bulky. but this video made me feel a lot better so ty and yippie!
I'm an M, but I absolutely adore your style and always feel so inspired with your ideas about reconnecting and finding peace with yourself! I also struggle with depression and once I unfollowed russian bloggers, your channel became a new comfort zone for me. I found your videos about self-acceptance and feeling comfortable in sex/relationships so relatable, since I've never enjoyed interest from my peers and my classmates added to it, treating me as if I was the most disgusting human they knew (i never really understood why), so I didn't feel like I could find love and feel loved, not until recently. Finally, you are absolutely stunning, and I believe you can rock every look! It's such a pleasure to watch you shine!❤
Hey Jessica! Idk if anyone else said this or had it happen but in the begining and end of vid when you had the mic there was no audio. Otherthen that it was a great video! Love your content! Being older, I love seeing how confident young ladies are these days and it makes me so happy for all of you!
yea i noticed that the audio only came out of the left side of my headphones but there should be audio! you might have to turn the volume up a bit. i’ll try figuring out the mic situation for my next vid! thank you so much though, your kind words mean so much to me 🥺💗💗🫶
@@lovejessicablair yeah i turned on mono audio so that it would stop only coming from my left headphone so maybe your editing software has smth like that as a fix if this problem comes up again :]
I admire your confidence and determination to just wear whatever you like! I hope I reach the same level of confidence and not giving a shit about other people's opinions some day.. Props to you! ♥
The first video short of yours that I watched was the...pov fat girl who finally threw the cardigans away...and seeing that totally changed me!! That's all I needed to completely change the way I viewed myself, and my body. I live now in acceptance of me, and that's an incredible gift ❤ Btw...I don't think you're fat at all. I think you're beautiful, smart, and gutsy...Love it❤🍀🥂🎉
hope this doesn't come off wrong, but I just wanted to point out that a lot of people actually call themselves "fat" intentionally, to reinforce the idea that "fat" doesn't mean "bad"! so while it's clear you meant it positively, saying something like "I don't think you're fat" can come off ...not exactly negative, but not as the compliment it was intended to be.
thank u ur an icon, as a plus size girlie my thought has always been i had to 'wait' to be thinner to wear them, and my mother doesn't want me to wear 'unflattering' clothes for my size which i don't blame her for. But i do appreciate the relationship u have with ur mom where u both wear what is comfortable/cool. idk if this makes sense, but ty for ur content.
@@moon-moth1 Hi, you're very sweet thank you for ur reply. I agree w you! I think because of my shyness i always just listened to her because she would be the one buying my clothes haha. Now that I'm older I should work up the courage to tell her it's okay for me to wear whatever. Plus size is beautiful!
Aww this video wasn't a mess it was great! I personally just love to see your different outfits! Your style is very different from mine...you always make me want to try being a little more trendy Y2K rather than like what I sort of call "time traveler chic" so you know old fashioned maybe a little witchy is sort of my thing, but I don't know maybe I should mix it up with more "current eras" (like maybe enter the 20th century more often!) Anyway love your stuff so much! Take care!
Hi!! You joke a lot about dying inside and being unwell mentally so I just want to say I genuinely hope you’re in a good place and have a good support system!! Sending love💖💖
i know you say this is for the girls, but i am very fascinated with your style as a man, it makes me want to wear a skirt again... im just super obsessed with your style and your videos, they give me so much comfort, even if it's not for someone like me
Every time I see the skirt over the jeans look I just think it looks bizzare, like it doesn't register as fashion to me. more like somebody forgot they were wearing jeans already lol. wearing them with skinny jeans would probably look better IMO
do you actually wear the low rise outfits out all day comfortably? i'm asking cause i got a stomach too and it sounds so uncomfortable, like it would be on the verge of slipping too far down any second... or is it no problem when the fit is perfect?
Great video! Thanks so much for uploading! I've been following you for about 9 months now and I can say that you really helped me a lot with my own body image. Thank you❤
The pants under skirt reminds me SOO much of this girl I went to school with who would do that and I always secretly loved it but never said anything but i’ve been so nervous to do jeans under skirt but I love this sm
I support ppl wearing what they wanna wear, but wow I cannot imagine wanting to wear low rise jeans. In middle school and high school those were the only jeans they were selling, we were all constantly having to pull our pants up 🥲 literally so uncomfortable.
that line about that you are focusing on that * you * want to wear and that makes * you * comfortable - totally agree!!! my fashion, and even, gender expression is * for me *. I don't even care about pass now, like, why should i care about some rando guy on bus station thinking about my gender? that rando guy thinks about gender in third biology class books terms which were written in the last century. even if he will use right pronouns on me, he will be wrong about my gender anyway because he never heard about xenogenders so why to worry? [not saying that everyone should think that way, i know it's important for a lot of people to pass, just talking about my personal expirience] getting * my * outfits and creating my way of fashion, my way to express through clothes boosted my self esteem to the sky, i am slaying, i feel powerful, hot and it's the best feeling ever (especially after beating ed) and if someone can't handle go(thicccc) god, well, feel sorry for them because their life must be boring as hell >:P
I don't personally really like most of your outfits, but your confidence and the way you've come to accept yourself is so heartwarming and beautiful. Stay safe 💝
I kind of feel like an imposter here, but as someone who has the ‘conventional body type’, im still insecure. Your videos help me get confidence to wear whatever i want, so thank you!
I just came across this channel and find it interesting. I look at your videos and it says that there are 170...I don't see that many?? What am I missing? Why do you do this if it makes you want to literally die???!!!
Our bodies are beautiful, but we also have to take care of our bodies. Advocating for brands to sell sizes bigger than XL is kind of absurd in my opinion. Nobody is “naturally “ an XL, that’s an excuse. We need to promote healthy eating and exercise in addition to makeup, skincare and fashion. Beauty comes from within. It may be a controversial opinion, and I get it’s a fashion video, but I would definitely like to see an emphasis on health and working out in these types of communities
this is a hugeeee misconception because of diet culture and social media, genetics mean that people can be any size and still be healthy inside, skinny people can still be ill or unhealthy babe, its not just immediately a lack of health or understanding of food, i know of fat people who go to the gym, eat beautifully healthy dietician recommended foods every day and honestly are doing much better than most people, but people with attitudes like yours still harrass them or spread misconception just because you dont understand how actually different bodies can be and how the clothing industry is literally built on making people feel insecure and incorrectly labelling sizes, sizes are literally different at every brand
@@esha7975 I'm not claiming all skinny people are healthy. I'm claiming that if you exercise and eat healthy, as an overweight person, you will eventually shed weight and become thinner. Which is healthy.
@@epicmeow7688 nope, exercising doesn't always help u shed weight...it can sometimes build up muscle strength and resistance which will actually make you gain weight... so eating healthy and exercising will keep u fit but its not necessary that you'll lose weight. It's just a misconception for ppl who love putting out their opinions without doing all of the research.
@@rishika3410 It helps you burn excess fat, which is what "losing weight" typically means. Gaining muscle is a plus. Gaining excess fat is not. There's no need to argue in a comment section on a comment that has 6 likes.
@@rishika3410doing consistent cardio definitely will make you lose weight. And our body is designed to be way more active than what our sedentary lifestyle is used to. That's why sport is highly recommanded
If you think it'll be something you'll look back and wish you did. Wear the damn clothes you want while you still can. One day you'll be too old and incapable to do anything for yourself. Enjoy this life
I just can't wrap my head around low-rise clothes. I hate them so much. No matter how hard i try to somehow wear them it just makes me feel uncomfortable. Not because of how much they show just because they feel wrong :'D at some point in life I started wearing mid and highrise stuff and I'll never be going back I guess
