Edit to add: I just want to say a huge thank you to this community and also the friend who first introduced me to this sub. ❤️ My confidence is growing so quickly. If you had told me a year ago I would be publicly posting a pic of myself in a swimsuit WITH fresh medical scars and feeling cute as hell, I never would have believed you. Such a thing felt almost inconceivable. Yet here I am. 😊

6/27/2026: Thrifted this super comfy Torrid dress and wanted to see if I could style it in a less "it's wine o' clock" mom way lol. Not that there's anything wrong with wine mom fashion! It's just not my particular taste. Unfortunately it was way too hot for fishnets and a flannel which would have been my go-to, but I still liked the look.
