The last prompt was about embracing something that scares me. Most of the things that scare me about fashion I've already tackled in the past few challenges or I just can't do - like wear high heels because I broke my big toe 6 years ago and that makes wearing heels is painful. This left me only two options - wear make-up/lipstick or embrace my curves. Since make-up takes time, money, and some skills, I chose the latter. Embracing my curves scares me for reasons I won't go into, and I know that some of my outfits in the past have been curvalicious, but that was incidental and they were still scary to wear. Today I wore something purposely to show off the waist I have been trimming in water aerobics. A friend noticed at church and I didn't cower away, but owned it. Plus, at church there was an empowering lesson about the divine potential of women, so how can I be ashamed of being a woman and having the body God blessed me with?

So if you've got it, flaunt it - modestly.
