Blah is all I have to say about today. My friends were all very supportive of my decisions, which was really realllllly helpful. I also talked to him a lot, which makes me feel so much better too. WE ARE NOT BREAKING UP. I have no intention on ever ending it with this boy, he is amazing. I am just not able to give myself completely to him right now, and I want to get there so bad! He deserves nothing less. IT IS SO HARD not to run back to him now and say I am sorry for putting him through this. But I already did put him through it, now I have to make it all worth it. I have never done anything like this before in my life, it’s really weird. I feel like once I get over the shock maybe I will feel better and learn something. But right now I just want him back, I keep having flash backs of all the amazing times we have had. I know this is a good thing, and years from now (after our happily ever after) I will not regret doing it. I just have to push through it. HELP?

Hello people from FYCG!!!! It is nice to meet you!! My name is Mandy, and I am trying to break into the modeling world. Want to learn more about me? Read this! And pass it on. UPDATE: I have been sort of down lately. ONLY because my agencies suck at getting back to me. I am with two, and haven’t gotten work from either. The first one is in Ohio, which is understandable because I am in PA. The second one is in PA, but I was out of the country for 3 months so I’m pretty sure they forgot about me. I went to NYC, was denied. Came home kept a positive spirit. Now I am working at ModCloth.com, and going to school. I am in the process of updating my portfolio, so that should be fun! :) Everything has been tough because, none of my agencies believe in me. I just need one person to believe in me as much as I believe in myself and it will be smooth sailing from there. I want to push boundaries like Crystal Renn does. It is just harder than I expected to get there. Do you know anyone who could help me?

Thinking hard…

Ladies (and Gents, if any gents follow me) I am trying to figure out if I should pursue my modeling in a bigger city. If I did this I would first visit all the major cities, go to the best agencies (Ford, Willhemina, etc.) and see what they think. I would be smart not to move without having any big interest.

Problem #1- My parents find it very important that I get my degree… (I will be a junior in college next fall).

Problem #2- I worry if I do not do it soon I will be too old! :( I already look too old, I am 20 and people think I am 24ish… :(

Problem #3- Am I ready? I feel as though I am, but I can never be positive.

If you have a huge paragraph of advice send it to- fashion4curves1@gmail.com, if not answer it here… I really need your help followers.

What do you think?

About a month ago I did this shoot. Just got this image! It shows the many faces of me. A lot of them are a little silly lol. I am trying to figure out what I look better doing… Do you like me more emotional looking (more high fashion) or happy (commercial) when it comes to modeling?

Hello my big busted friends! Please tell me you do not look like this on the beach!! This girl has amazing curves, and needs to be showing them off in a different way!! Quick rules for swimwear! Rule #1- See a little muffin top? Fix this by getting bottoms that fit, maybe a size up from what you would expect. Find the happy medium of tight and falling off. :D Ones with ties on the sides are way to easy to pull off… And harder to keep up. Rule #2- Her chest is quite large… (as if you didn’t notice). I would suggest leaving more for the imagination. There are several bathing suits that you can get that offer great support but still show a little cleavage. <look at previous post for some alternatives> Rule #3- Do not discriminate against the one-peice… I know I do it, I worry that I won’t get a good tan.. TANS ARE OVERRATED, skin cancer is real! Rule #4- Feel comfortable! If you are the type of person who likes to play beach volleyball or jump around like crazy in the water, get a bathing suit that will keep up. Not one like this where you could fall out at any moment! All of these tips help you look and feel your best! :)

Ok, good model (like usual), but the dress&#8230; Well, its not that bad&#8230; Actually it is not bad at all, pair it with a light brown waist belt and it would look brilliant. But you see how the dress jutts out underneath her breasts? That adds inches to her stomach. She is probably a smaller than what she looks like in this picture. If the dress was tighter right underneath there, or (like I said) add a belt it would solve this issue. &#187;Always remember ladies&#8230; If you are a pear or triangle or any shape with a waist ALWAYS make sure you show that off! Always be confident in your best feature. If you don&#8217;t know what it is, send me a picture of you to my e-mail, I will help. :)&#171; Anyways, do you agree with this belt idea?
