Why do the manufacturers of bras think that in order to feel sexy I have to have big boobs? I don't have them and I don't want them! But I simply cannot find attractive (you know, like satin, lace, that sorta thing) bras in my size that don't have tons of padding.
The ones that are padding-free, non push-ups are made out of t-shirt fabric. They are modeled by girls in sweatpants.
I am totally not against push-up bras -I'm not in the camp that would call them "false advertising." (After all, nothing's for sale ;) It's just that I am really happy to have the body I have. I like being small busted. But sometimes I don't want to wear a t-shirt bra. Sometimes I want something prettier.
Am I alone in this?
*I say "only" because I know some of my guy friends might be uncomfortable or at least uninterested in the subject matter, but if you are a guy with 2 cents on this? Please share!

Collection: Glasses
Apparently, I horde glasses. Whenever I get new ones, I keep the old ones and sometimes still wear them, despite the out-of-date prescription!
I used to really have a problem with the shape and girth my nose. So as a teen (because my nose was so impossible to diminish in any way), I really wanted glasses to hide behind. Finally, at age 14, I got an eye exam and my first pair. Thick, plastic, tortoise-shell perfection. They eventually got smashed (in a totally worth it manner) and I began a long and frustrating relationship with America's Best Contacts and Eyeglasses.
Here you may enjoy viewing my collection, sans one pair I cannot find. I'm afraid there is no avoiding seeing my nose many times also, unless of course you were to close your computer and walk away which I recommend you do immediately.

3. These were my one and only's for years. *true love*
4. Copying James
5. Ms. Professional
6. All at once?
7. These ones are my everyday go-to glasses. They go on my face as soon as I wake up in the morning. Every day.

Honesty, a confession
I am very self-conscious about all the freckles/moles on my face. They aren't the cute, light-orange ones like ginger people have, they are dark and irregular and hard to cover up. But after watching Mean Girls and wishing Lindsay Lohan would turn it out instead of wearing so much make-up, I decided to show you the honest, unedited version of the photo of myself that I included in my post earlier.
