Breaking News in Melissa’s world!!  AKA: This picture is a big deal!!! 

Last night, I wore this to karaoke. I tucked my shirt in for the first time in years and didn’t feel self conscious about my stomach, hips or butt. I felt, dare I say it? slim. Attractive. Maybe even a little sexy. With my skinny jeans and a brown riding boots I felt like I looked pretty and casual. It spilled over into my mood, my attitude, and my walk. 🙂

Amazing that something so simple as tucking in shirt into a pair of skinny jeans can change your entire attitude and how you feel about yourself and your body. 

Body confidence, FTW! 🙂

I’m having a good body day. I had to meet my sister-in-law at her place of work in downtown Lincoln before I went to work this morning to pick up some things she had for me before I leave for Fargo tomorrow. As I was crossing the busy street, I noticed a couple of guys standing next to the building, smoking. The one guy was staring at me, and then nudged his friend to do the same. They both just stared at me, smiling! It was fantastic! I stood there talking to her for a minute and they were still both looking at me and checking me out. I’m feeling pretty good about myself, not gonna lie!

Then, when I came into work, there was a guy in the lobby filling out a job application. As I came in, he turned and looked me up and down, smiled and said ‘hi’. I said ‘hi’ back and went into the newsroom.

And to think I couldn’t decide what to wear this morning! White jean skirt and green tee FTW! 🙂

Pardon the bathroom-non-smiling selfie! I just about got caught taking the photo! Whoops! 🙂

Happy Hump Day friends!
