"Wearing tight clothing has never been something I truly enjoyed; I didn't want to attract attention to myself . . . not that kind of attention, anyway. It wasn't until [last May on a weekend trip] when I felt comfortable to not only pack a few fitted outfits but also commit to wearing them when we went out to celebrate. Ultimately, I was at ease because I knew my own intentions and I felt so good wearing something that made me feel beautiful. I realised that all these years, I was so focussed on other people's opinions, and never focussed on how something like a simple and sexy dress made me feel. I decided to focus on what makes me feel good, and I certainly do not regret that decision."
