The wonderful world of strapless bras may seem like an unknown land. Sure, if you’ve never experimented with wearing a bra without sleeves, you could find the idea a little intimidating. It doesn’t have to be. You simply need to do a little research first.

Here are seven things you should know about strapless bras:

1.  Yes, there are strapless bras out there that stay in place

One of the biggest concerns women have when getting bras without sleeves is that they won’t stay up. That’s a huge myth. Of course, these bras don’t have straps, which means that they are less secure. However, there are a couple of ways you can ensure that they stay up. Make sure that you avoid moisturizing before you put your bra on so that your skin is not oily. You could also use some tape to keep your lingerie firmly in place.

2.  The support comes from the band

Worried about getting the support that you need? Don’t panic. When it comes to a bra without straps, you don’t need to stress about not getting enough support. In fact, one of the things that many women simply don’t realize is that the majority of the support comes from the band anyway. If you invest in a quality strapless bra with a thick and sturdy band, you can be certain that it will give your breasts a high level of support.

3.  Correct sizing is everything

Do you know what size you are? If you’re unsure of your proper bra size, it could be time to get measured once again. When you wear a bra that is either too small or too large for your size and shape, you will have a problem. That rule stands whether you’re buying a bra without sleeves or one that has some straps. Before you decide to buy some new lingerie, take a moment to ensure that you’re confident in both your cup and band size.

4.  They aren’t the same as convertible bras

Think that strapless bras and convertible bras are the same? Think again! There’s one major difference between these two types of lingerie. As the name suggests, convertible bras can be converted to two different types of lingerie. You can either wear them as a bra without sleeves or one with them. It gives you the choice and you can use the lingerie in a variety of situations. On the other hand, if you buy a completely strapless bra, you usually can’t clip any straps onto it. Simple.

5.  Strapless bras work for DD+ cup sizes

If you’re looking for something that will lift and support your bust, you’ll love the Deco Wire-Free Strapless Bra. This ultra sexy piece of lingerie is both strapless and wireless. Every woman should own at least one strapless bra that she can depend on. Why not give the Deco Wire-Free Strapless Bra a try for yourself and consider whether it suits you or not? It will support your DD bust and make a wonderful addition to your lingerie wardrobe.

6.  You need to find the right one

Of course, it should go without saying that finding the right strapless bra for you will be something of a process. When you first start looking around, there are a few different things that you might want to consider. In some situations, it’s best to try on the various types of bra until you find the right one for you. If you’re new to this area of lingerie, take the time to book a fitting at a local lingerie store and ask for help from the fitter when choosing the correct piece for you.

7.  They are ideal for evening wear

With the holidays just around the corner, you may be planning your festive outfits already. Many pieces of evening wear, such as glamorous dresses and the like, are strapless. It should go without saying that you can’t wear a standard bra with one of these outfits. With that in mind, searching for the perfect strapless bra ahead of time could be the answer. Be sure to try the bra with the outfit you have in mind. That way, it should fit your classy outfit seamlessly.

How often do you check out the condition of your bras? Most of us never think to inspect our lingerie. Let’s face it, we have better things to do! Still, making sure that it’s still in the best possible condition is the key to feeling comfortable, confident, and supported. If your bra band is stretched out, you will feel none of the above.

Here are ten signs to look out for: 

1.  Your bra feels looser than before

One of the first signs that you should be aware of is simple – your bra feels looser.  Now, the truth of the matter is that all bras will start to feel looser over time. That’s natural. However, should you feel that it is much bigger for you than it once was, that’s a bad sign. You need to do something about it. The chances are that your bra band has stretched much further than you might expect.

2.  You can more than two fingers beneath it

Here’s a quick and easy test you can try for yourself. While wearing your bra, take two fingers and see if you can fit them between the band material and your skin. If you can, try it again with three fingers. You should not be able to do this comfortably if your bra fits you correctly. When you notice that there is a gulf between the fabric and your back, it’s time to get a new bra as soon as you can!

3.  The color has faded a little

When you first get a brand new bra, you will notice that it is bright and colorful. However, the more you wash and wear the bra, the more than tone will fade. One of the first places that you will notice this is on the band. Take a close look at it. If you see that the color looks different, it’s a sign that the material is pulling, stretching, and old. Yikes.

4.  It looks dirty (even after you wash it)

Equally, you may also find that the bra looks dirty even when you’ve washed it. This is particularly true when it comes to white bras. These pieces of lingerie tend to start to go gray when you’ve had them for a long period. When you see that the color is changing, you will likely notice a couple of differences when it comes to the condition of the material as well. It’s at this point that the band may have stretched.

5.  The stitching has come out!

Have you taken a close look at the stitching recently? When your band starts to stretch, it will ultimately force the stitching out of the material. This happens through sheer pressure and nothing less. A few stray threads might not be a huge deal. Then again, should you notice that a whole lot of the threads have started to fray, it means that there’s been a lot of wear and tear going on.

6.  It no longer feels elastic

Many bras actually feel quite elastic. That’s because they use an elastic material to make the band flexible and give you some extra support. If your bra was once extremely stretchy and comfortable, you should keep checking it over time. Should you find that it is suddenly brittle or stiff, that means that the elastic has worn out altogether.

7.  Your bra moves when you walk

When you’re walking down the street, notice how your bra feels on your skin. Are you comfortable? Is it staying in the same position? When you’re wearing the right bra size and it’s not too old, you should find that your lingerie stays firmly in place. If that’s not the case, you are not getting everything that you need from your bra. Not by a long shot. Do something about it and simply throw it out (or recycle it!).

8.  And sometimes when you don’t

Worse still, if your bra moves around when you’re sitting down, that is a major issue. You need your bra to support you and stay in one place. When the band has begun to stretch beyond repair, though, you will find that it naturally moves from side to side. The chances are that this is pretty uncomfortable, to say the least.

9.  You no longer feel supported

Quick question: Do you feel that your breasts are supported? It may be something that you haven’t given much thought to recently. However, all women deserve to feel that they are supported and comfortable. That’s why we advise investing in high-end, high-quality pieces of lingerie. When that level of support disappears for good, the bra is of no use to you any longer.

10.  You have noticed a tear

Finally, one of the biggest telltale signs that your bra band is stretched out is that there’s a tear. When you see small rips and tears in the material of your lingerie, it could be time to wave goodbye to it forever. Sure, you might want to hold onto the piece, especially if it happens to be one of your favorites. But doing so is a mistake. All good things must come to an end, after all. Bye, bra!

Calling all curvaceous ladies: It’s time to quit hiding your best features under layers of material and start showing them off in all their glory. Highlighting your assets is all about choosing the right clothing pieces for you.

Not sure where to begin? Here are six trends you can try for yourself that will accentuate your body shape: 

1.  Learn the art of color-blocking

If you’ve yet to hear about the art of color-blocking, you’re in for a treat. This is a fashion term that simply means that you use color blocks to accentuate the best aspects of your body. The idea here is that you choose dresses, skirts, and tops that have large panels of color. For example, you may wish to choose a skirt that has two panels which rest on either side of your hips. These will mimic your natural curves and accentuate them well.

2.  Invest in vertically striped pieces

Stripes are a huge fashion yet again, which means that it’s well worth giving them a go for yourself. One of the best things that you can do here is to choose vertical stripes. This pattern is one of the most flattering. The stripes will flow downward on your dress or any other item of clothing and following the flow of your curves. Should you have an hourglass or pear-shaped figure, you will find that this particular look works well.

3.  Choose the right bra for each outfit

Of course, it should go without saying that having the right bra for your clothing is key. When you’re choosing a killer outfit, you should always consider the cut of the clothes and how they will work with your lingerie. It’s essential that you choose a bra which flatters your figure and works with whatever clothing you may decide on. Often enough, the best way to work this out is to try on a few different styles when dressing. Give it a go!

4.  Give high-waisted pants a shot

The high-waisted pants trend is one that no curvaceous lady should skip. It’s basically made for us! There’s something uniquely flattering and beautiful about some stunning jeans or shorts that have this feature. Whether you try this trend with a loose blouse or something more fitted, you’re sure to see that it has a truly brilliant effect. Take the time to seek out various styles and see which ones work for your own shape.

5.  Try out a lower neckline too

Never underestimate the power of a low neckline. Should you have large breasts, you need to ensure that you flatter them rather than trying to hide them away. While you might find that a high neckline has its place (in certain situations), it is rarely the most suitable look. Instead, you might want to go for something lower than shows off your curves while still looking classic and womanly. Pair this type of look with a plunge bra or even a push-up bra for an awe-inspiring aesthetic. Play around and see what works.

6.  Match flowing tops with fitted pants

Fashion is all about creating the right balance between your clothing. If you’re a fan of boho style flowing tops, you have a whole load to work with here. Match this look with a fitted pair of pants, such as some leggings or even jeans, to make a dynamic duo. Alternately, you could turn this fashion trend on its head. Why not opt for a flowing skirt but then combine that with a fitted bodycon top? The choice, as always, is completely yours!

Are you ready to start showing off your curves and loving your shape more than ever? The answer should be a gigantic yes! Switching up your wardrobe and opting for pieces that work with your figure is the smartest way to go. Hopefully, our exclusive advice will have helped you do just that. If you’re hoping to start a new chapter when it comes to your fashion this fall, it’s time to simply turn the page. Good luck and happy shopping.

Your mental health is just as important as your physical health!

You need to ensure that you look after your mental state just as much as the rest of you. We all go through highs and lows during our life. Maintaining a strong mindset is all about doing small, simple things to keep you feeling positive.

Here are seven healthy habits to start: 

1.  Start meditating

Have you considered meditating? If you feel as though you’re always too busy to relax, this could be the way to go. Taking some time to sit alone and get some headspace could be a fantastic way to unwind. Should you find that you can’t meditate by yourself, there are loads of tools that you can use. For example, you could find some apps that help you to learn how to meditate and switch off. Give it a go!

2.  Have some ‘you time’

Everybody needs some time alone now and then. You might feel obliged to help your family and friends when they need you. However, don’t overlook the fact that you also need to have some space from time to time. When you always give yourself (and your time) to other people, it ends up taking a toll on you. You will feel depleted, drained, and tired. Don’t let that happen. Set some time aside for yourself.

3.  Embrace your body

Do you love your body? No matter what your shape or size is, the answer should be a giant yes. We all need to learn to embrace our figures and love every single inch of ourselves. When you get hung up on your flaws and the things you think need improving, it can hurt you in more ways than you know. That has to stop. Take the time to start appreciating your body and loving it each day.

4.  Keep a journal

Writing can be a truly cathartic exercise. When you’re feeling stressed out or burned out, one of the best things you can do for yourself is get a pen and start writing down your thoughts. This habit can help you to learn to be more honest with yourself. You might discover that there are things that have been getting to you without you realizing it. Why not grab an old sketchbook and give it a go today?

5.  Start mindful eating

Eating should be a supreme pleasure. When you sit down for a meal, don’t make the mistake of simply rushing through it and moving on. You might be busy, but you should always take the time to enjoy the food that you eat and make the most of it. If you fail to do so, you will never have a positive relationship with your diet. Make your food look beautiful on the plate before you dig in and enjoy the act of eating it. You never know, it might just be the best thing that you ever do.

6.  Get active outdoors

Sure, it might be fall but that doesn’t mean that you should stay inside every single evening. Instead, take the time to get out and get active. You might want to go for a run or take a walk in the park. Being physically active means that you will boost your mental well-being as well as your fitness levels. Make this habit a core part of your life and you will soon start to reap the rewards of your hard work.

7.  Listen to positive podcasts

Looking for a way to de-stress and chill out? You might just have found it. Listening to engaging and exciting podcasts could be the way to go. There are many out there that you might want to try.

If you’re at all interested in the body positivity movement, you might find that it’s helpful to listen to some podcasts on this subject matter. For example, you could try listening to Call Your Girlfriend or Stuff Your Mom Never Told You. Start looking today and see what you can find out there.

Are you going to try some of these mentally healthy habits? You need to take care of yourself, especially during the colder and darker months of the year. Starting to take active steps toward this goal is the only way to ensure that you will lead a happy and healthy life.

If your cash flow is tight, finding the right bra can be something of a minefield. We all know that high-quality lingerie is worth investing in, so how can you save yourself some cash?

Let’s take a look at what you need to know and how you can bag the best bra on a budget.

The danger of scrimping on a bra

Before we go any further, it’s worth noting one thing: Buying a super cheap bra will not save you any money in the long-term. One of the biggest mistakes that women make when it comes to choosing lingerie is opting for the cheapest deal. The problem here is that these items are likely to be low quality. That means that a) they won’t offer you the support that your breasts need and b) they will start to wear out all too soon.

Let’s face it, having to replace your bras every few weeks is certainly more expensive than having to do so every few months. If you find yourself dealing with worn out, broken bras on a regular basis, you need to do something about it. The chances are that you’re buying cheap and cheerful lingerie that simply will not do the job at all.

The best budget bra options to buy

We already know that buying quality items is the only way forward. However, it’s worth noting that you can still get a real deal if you shop around. Choosing basic, yet quality items could help you to save money in the long run. For example, investing heavily in a few high-quality t-shirt bras is a smart move for your bank account. Doing so means that you have some wonderful everyday bras that you can wear with any given outfit.

When it comes to choosing bras, you need to make sure that you know what you’re looking for. Avoid lingerie that is too thin and flimsy. Instead, you should opt for pieces that have decent, thick material and a thick band too. Bras with minute details are often relatively good quality, and so you should also look for this telltale sign.

The most versatile styles of lingerie

Of course, when you’re looking to buy a bra on a budget, you shouldn’t overlook the versatility factor. If you can wear this piece of lingerie in a whole range of situations, you should find that it’s worth its weight in gold. You might want to choose a bra that is ideal for the office but, equally, can be worn with a stunning evening gown look. So, with that point firmly in mind, what are the most versatile pieces of lingerie on the market?

Choosing a beautiful convertible bra could be the answer to your lingerie prayers. These types of bras are ideal as you can change them around to suit your outfit. The ability to remove the straps means that you can even wear this style of lingerie with a strapless dress. On the other hand, a bra like this one suits most occasions. It will work under a simple blouse, t-shirt, or even a sweater. Plus, it can be packed for a weekend trip or week-long vacation and worn with a myriad of outfits.

How to save money on lingerie

Saving money when you’re buying lingerie takes a little hard work and a whole load of expertise. You don’t want to overpay for high-quality lingerie but, at the same time, you don’t want to end up scrimping and getting a poor quality product.

Here are just a few tips that you might want to keep in mind when it comes to shopping and looking after your bras:

• – Keep your eye out for sales and discount vouchers
• – Join mailing lists so that you’re always the first to know about sales
• – Take care of the lingerie that you already have
• – Make sure that you store it correctly too

Following these simple tips could be just the thing to help you save money and find the best bra on a budget. Keep in mind that shopping during the sales season and being savvy when it comes to the quality of item you buy is absolutely key.

Now that you’ve got the details, what on earth are you waiting for? Treating yourself to some gorgeous lingerie is a surefire way to brighten your mood and lift you up. Why not start looking for cute styles today and see whether you can find something that fits the bill?

Do your breasts need an extra boost? Loving your shape is one thing but, sometimes, it’s nice to have the option to turn up the volume on your boobs. If you’re looking for a way to add an extra boost to your bust, you’ve come to the right place.

Here are five tips that will help you to make the most of your natural features:

1.  Avoid bras that are too small

One of the common myths when it comes to boosting your bust is that a small bra will do the trick. Cramming your breasts into a cup size that is completely wrong for them will not help them look any bigger. What’s more, you will likely find that this technique means you end up with breasts that overflow and look bizarre.

Equally, if you find that the band size is too small, you could end up with marks on your back and pain. Before you invest in a brand new piece of lingerie, it’s always worth getting fitted by a professional. That way, you can get a bra that is just the right size for you or, if you can’t find that one, your sister size. The latter will also fit your breasts well.

2.  Try a statement push-up bra

Have you ever worn a push-up bra? If you’ve shied away from these sexy pieces of lingerie, it could be time to take the leap and treat yourself to one. As the name suggests, these bras accentuate your breasts and help them to look perky and supported.

Of course, it’s worth noting that they will not actually make your boobs any larger than they are. Unless there’s padding here, you will find that the look of your breasts is much the same. However, you could find that they ultimately change the appearance of your silhouette, drawing a little more attention to your bust area.

3.  Avoid minimizer bras

Do you wear minimizer bras? Many ladies wear these bras without realizing it. Despite this fact, these pieces of lingerie actually make your breasts look a little smaller than they are. This effect is not what you’re going for at the moment. That’s why you ought to take the time to check out the bras that you currently wear on a regular basis. Should you find that some of them fall into this category, it could be time to switch them up.

4.  Get a bra with padding

Needless to say, one of the simplest ways in which you can make your breasts appear slightly larger than they are is to choose a bra with padding. For example, you could benefit from a gorgeous padded plunge bra. From the moment that you slip this stunning piece of lingerie on, you’re sure to notice a real difference in your bust. Accentuating this part of your body, the bra may do wonders for you.

Getting a little more oomph in your breast area could help certain outfits fit you better and give you a little extra confidence. Many women find that having a padded bra gives them more options when it comes to their wardrobe. If you don’t already own one of these beauties, now could be the perfect time to make a real investment in one.

5.  Use the power of support

When it comes to bras, you should never underestimate the power of support. Getting the proper level of support from your lingerie means that your breasts will remain high up in a perky position. Of course, finding a bra that gives you that level of security is a tricky feat. The first step here is choosing a high-quality, high-end piece of lingerie. You also need to opt for a bra with a thick band, as much of the support comes from this part of the bra.

Remember

Body positivity and empowerment is about being happy and content with the skin you’re in! However, that doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t highlight your favorite assets. You have the choice to do whatever you please with your body. That’s the point. Should you wish to boost your bust and give it a little extra something, go right ahead. Using these quick and simple tips you can get the form you’re looking for in no time at all! Try it now!

Has lingerie terminology got you all muddled up? Are you confused when you read certain product descriptions? If you’re not au fait with all the jargon, you could be forgiven for getting a tad confused.

One of the bras that baffles many people is the unlined bra. What is it? Is it comfortable? Should you buy one? In this guide, we’re answering all of your questions and more.

What is an unlined bra?

You might have heard whispers of this type of bra before, but do you actually know what it is? If you’re feeling a little confused, you’re likely not alone. An unlined bra is just what it says on the tin, though. It’s a bra that doesn’t have underwire or lining. You may have seen pieces of lingerie like this before now and wondered what the deal was.

Luckily, we’re here to help. Demystifying the wonderful world of lingerie is kind of our deal. We have a broad range of unlined bras which may well make a perfect addition to your current lingerie repertoire. With that in mind, let’s take a deeper look at the basics.

But wait, what about support?

We know what you’re thinking. If there’s no wire beneath the cup, how on earth are you going to get the support that you need? Don’t panic. It’s true that unlined bras usually consist of one piece of material that stretches across each breast. There’s nothing below that which is why many large breasted women tend to steer clear of them.

However, there’s something else that you ought to know. The fact that these bras are unlined has no bearing on whether or not they offer you support. When you invest in a quality piece of lingerie, you will see that there is a wealth of detail, stitching, and panels. All of the above help to give your breasts the support that they need.

How comfortable is this type of bra?

Next up, let’s deal with your burning question – how comfortable is an unlined bra? Well, the answer is pretty comfortable. However, you need to make sure that you choose the right bra for you. Should you pick a bra that is not the right size, you may find that you don’t get what you need from this bra.

Equally, it’s always worth trying on a piece of lingerie to check whether it suits your size and shape. As every woman’s shape is unique, you can never be sure how well something will fit until you try it for yourself. Much of the support here comes from the band. Choosing the right unlined bra option will give you the lift and support you need.

Should you invest in one?

Now that you know all there is to know about unlined bras, the question is simple: Should you invest in one? If you’re looking for a way to spice up your current lingerie looks, you might just have found it. Perhaps the most intriguing thing about these types of lingerie is that they come in a range of sexy and alluring looks. It could be worth shopping around until you find a bra that suits your personal sense of style.

Pro tips

Ready to try an unlined bra for yourself? If you fancy mixing up your lingerie game, there’s never been a better time to get a little experimental. Start searching for your ideal bra today and see what you can find. Trying out something new could be a fantastic move.

You’ve treated yourself to a stunning new low-cut top and can’t wait to take it for a spin. When the time is right, you pull it out of your drawer and slip it on. There’s just one problem – your bra is on show. Needless to say, it’s not the look that you were going for.

Here’s how you can choose the right style of bra for your brand new outfit:

It can be tricky to find bras for low-cut tops

When it comes to low-cut tops, you have quite a unique challenge. You need to make sure that you’re comfortable in the piece and that your bra supports you. However, the last thing you want is for any part of your bra to be on show while you’re wearing it.

Of course, the best way to figure this out is to try on a range of bras and see how they happen to work with your outfit. It’s simply a case of trial and error. The more lingerie styles you try on, the more likely it is that you will find that one that’s right for you.

Every top has a different cut

Not all low-cut tops are made equal. And that’s your biggest problem. Whenever you buy a new top, you may find that it doesn’t align with the other clothes that you have. Modern-day fashion comes in a myriad of choices. While that’s a wonderful thing in terms of having the ability to express yourself, it means that you can’t guarantee the shape of any piece that you happen to buy.

That’s why you will need to try every top that you buy with a range of lingerie. When you try it on in the store, you should get at least a vague idea of how well it fits. You will see whether the bra you’re wearing at the time is on show or not. Use that as a guideline.

Getting the right cup size is essential

Before you choose the right piece of lingerie, there’s one thing that you absolutely have to get right – your cup size! Should you wear one that is a size too small, you run the risk of your breasts flowing over the top of it.

Add that to a low-cut top and you most certainly have a recipe for disaster. If it’s been a while since you’ve got yourself professionally measured, you might want to book an appointment. That way, you won’t have this problem when it comes to choosing your bra.

Plunge bras could be the answer

Have you ever tried a plunge bra? If the answer is no, you don’t know what you’re missing. As the name suggests, these bras plunge downward in the cup. That means that you can wear them with a whole range of tops and they won’t show at all. Of course, you should know that the style of plunge bras will vary from lingerie to lingerie. You will need to try out different ones before you find the one for you.

Before you buy your dream plunge bra, be sure to read the description. That way, you can see what to expect when it comes. Some bras even have convertible backs so that you can wear them with tricky dress styles. For instance, if you don’t want to have the straps showing at the back, you could alter them to suit you. Simple.

But you should also try a demi cup

But wait, what if your top is just a little low-cut? If you don’t need a plunge bra, it could be worth looking into a demi cup bra. These bras have a low-cut cup that will still give you the coverage and support that you hope for. Again, you can get a variety of styles and looks here. If you’re hoping to wear your bra with a sheer top, for example, opting for a bare tone demi cup bra could be the way to go. Try it for yourself.

Remember

The fact is that finding the right bra is often a case of trial and error. You need to take the time to try out a whole load of styles before you find the one that suits you. It’s that simple. Luckily, there’s a load of bra types – plunge and demi cup included – that will likely work with this type of outfit. Start shopping today and see what you can find!

Body positivity isn’t something that happens overnight. It’s a journey. You have to work at it every single day. That may sound difficult but breaking it down into small and simple habits could be the key to getting it right.

Here are seven small but significant body positive habits to start today: 

1.  Take your time getting dressed

How do you start each day? Most of us roll out of bed, make a cup of coffee, pull on some clothes, and rush out the door. It’s time to change things up! Leaving yourself a little more time each morning (by setting your alarm back 20 minutes!) could make all the difference. Taking a little extra time when you’re getting dressed is a positive habit to start. Choose some amazing lingerie and an outfit that makes you feel stunning. You deserve it.

2.  Give yourself a compliment

When was the last time you complimented yourself? Each morning, why not start the day by noting something nice about the way that you look or feel. It doesn’t make you vain to do this – it makes you confident. Think about one of the features that you adore about yourself. Then, take a minute to compliment yourself on it. It’s a small habit that could change the way you feel when you leave the house.

3.  Say this mantra to yourself

‘My body is not my identity!’ Your physical form is just one part of you and you have so much more to offer the world. Rather than getting hung up on the parts of your body that you call flaws (but we call individualities!), be proud of who you are. Repeat this mantra to yourself a few times and really believe the truth behind it. You are a whole person.

4.  Find workouts you enjoy

Are you exercising because you think you have to? Stop it! That’s not the reason you should be sitting on an exercise bike. There’s one major reason that you should lead an active lifestyle and that’s because it can be a whole load of fun. Whether you jog to work or try a dance class afterward, taking the time to move and express yourself with your body is a positive thing to do. Try it for yourself!

5.  Be grateful for your body

If you’re in the habit of being overly critical about your body, it’s time to stop once and for all. You have to be absolutely grateful and thankful for your body. When you’re feeling a little down, take a moment to get yourself in check. Realize that your body is important and beautiful. Say thank you for it and, if it helps, try listing all of the reasons it is so very wonderful.

6.  Smile at yourself in the mirror

This next body positive habit may sound a little odd, but give it a chance. When you look in the mirror before you leave the house, give yourself a little smile. Doing so will change how you look and, believe it or not, how you feel too. Research suggests that smiling can help to lower your stress levels and improve your mood. Remembering to do this small, yet powerful thing each and every day could have some serious benefits!

7.  Get a proper night’s sleep

Sleep is the foundation of your life! When you fail to get the rest that you need, it shows in more ways than you realize. The fact of the matter is that you won’t function as well when you’re sleep deprived as you otherwise would. You might notice that you have dips in your mood, your confidence, and your ability to do things. All of the above is bad for your mental health. Getting into a great night routine is one of the greatest things you can do.

Do these body positive habits sound familiar to you? Do you already do some of them? If you’re looking for a way to improve your life and boost your happiness levels, you may just have found seven of them. Try these for yourself and see if they make a difference.
