Flipside: So happy you CAN wear.....

Kelly · Hermes

1. Heels. I have always had no problem running or whatever in them, and I took ballroom dance lessons (in heels) for years so I feel comfortable in them. But I guess I never thought about it until a couple months ago at my uncle's wedding, my cousin's boyfriend came up to me at the end of the night and complimented me because he said I was the only woman on the dance floor who "seemed to know what she was doing in them."

2. Glasses, if I want. I have a prescription that I need for driving, and I needed them in school for lectures, but in my day-to-day life I don't really need them. So I can wear them (or not) if my outfit calls for it.

Hmmm, I'll try to think of more. I feel like there is way more that I shy away from than I feel lucky about!

Suasoria · Chanel

I never feel like my boobs are too big or too small for different styles/cuts. They're just right. They're great, in fact. I have no problem wearing sleeveless or short-sleeved tops. My arms are perfectly fine. I'm happy with my general size and shape.

At five foot six, I usually don't have to hem pants and skirts.

I'm totally comfortable in heels around three, three and a half inches for all-day wear, and higher is okay for an evening or other short stint. In fact I prefer some heel height other than very casual occasions.

I have no trouble with flip-flops, either. The strap between the toes doesn't bug me like it does for some people.

And my ankles are lovely so there's no issues there, although I think people obsess about their ankles unnecessarily. They're intended to be functional, not decorative, and they're strange and knobby. Big whoop.

fairywings · Dooney & Bourke

Heels. I'm only 5'2" so I can pull off even the highest heels.
I'm petite and can wear leggings which is nice because they're so comfy even though they're skintight.
Short skirts are not problem because when you have legs on the short side, it doesn't look obscene!

Kitty · Hermes

Short skirts -- I like my legs.

Pants -- I'm pretty tall, so I rarely have to hem and most pants fit me without alterations.

Form fitting stuff -- I'm not skinny by any means, but I think I have a decent shape and a flat tummy.

greendiamond · Marc Jacobs

skirts. I have very lean and muscular legs. they may not fit in boots, but hey look great in a skirt with heels.

wrap dresses. They are too boobtastic for work, but for going out, they look nice on my hourglass shaped frame.

bright colors. my skin tone can pull off anything but yellow.

ILoveChoo · Hermes

heels- I'm short so the extra height isn't too much, and I have no problem walking/ running in them (I attribute this to years of dance too, ttara. Mine wasn't ballroom though.)

skirts/ dresses - not short skirts, but I look awesome in knee length skirts

bumblebee · Coach

People have told me that I'm a "hat person," so I guess I am glad that I can wear hats, even though I only do occasionally.

I'm more of an apple shape, so I have long legs that look good in mini-skirts and skinny jeans, so I am happy that I can wear those. Of course, this is counteracted by the short/chubby upper half of my body, but I won't dwell on that here in the positive thread!

sydney · Kate Spade

For me:

Skinny jeans

Sky high heels - love 'em
