#CurvesAreSexy, So Much So, That I’m Finally Embracing My #CurvesInBikinis

March 18, 2015 By Emme Rogers 4 Comments

If you’ve been here for awhile you might remember me writing about the simple truth that #CurvesAreSexy, as well as on my 2010 New Year’s Resolution to trim down.  Truth be told, while I am not a dieter, up until that 2010 New Year’s Resolution, I was always a little insecure about my body.  I do have a bit of a belly after all and am quite curvaceous.  That 2010 New Year’s Resolution shifted this for me.  Thanks to the support of readers, I began to see myself the way they saw me, as a beautiful woman with sexy curves. I can’t thank my community of readers enough for this, as this very much put a salacious strut in my step and improved my confidence in myself.

Emme Rogers roamancing Zurich!

Why am I writing about this now? Because yesterday I saw Jeannie Mack (Nomadic Chick)’s Coming Out of the Closet: I’m Size XX post (inspired by Meagan Collin’s I Have Curves, And I Travel – Deal With It!), and it made me smile and reminded me how far I’ve come since 2010.  But it’s a journey … and a long one.  For instance, all my life I didn’t think I could wear a bikini, which is why Jeannie’s mention of Ashley Graham and SwimsuitsForAll’s #CurvesInBikinis pleased me so …

… you see not only did I get the guts up last year to shoot my own Roamancing spoof on the Swimsuit Illustrated edition of Swiss Views , but on the urging of one of the lovely women at Bare Basics in Steveston, I tried on my first bikini ever.  And she was absolutely right, the bikini actually flattered my figure.  Now, while I am generally game to expose myself in my stories, I don’t in my personal life, so as I wandered to the pool that first day in the bikini, I was feeling more than a little insecure. That disappeared in a flash, as the women at the pool began to compliment me on my new swim attire.  Gradually I am feeling more and more at home in that bikini, even going so far as to dance in the snow in it!

A year ago I was horrified at the thought of wearing a bikini, let alone dancing in the snow in it!

Thank you Jeannie, Ashley, Meagan, SwimsuitsForAll and Bare Basics! I am liking this new joie de vive version of myself, in which I am loving #CurvesInBikinis as I dance!

Kisses,

Emme  xoxo

    What a wonderful message and spirit! When I married my wife, I married her for her. Curves and all. In fact, without everything about her she isn’t the woman I know and love. Sure she might think I’m biased when I tell her she looks beautiful, and maybe I am, but bias is not required to identify beauty. No one should ever feel shame for who they are or how they look.

Sample the “Drink Me” Potion at Your Own Risk

Don't try to find a beginning or an end to this site, because there's not one. That will only cause you frustration and I don't have the money for your therapy bills. Mine are already expensive enough.
