A Fashionable Condition

Timing & posture is everything.

I thought I’d share what my standard work uniform looks like. Of course there are multiple variations on a theme, but it’s all a lot like this. A skirt w tights occasionally gets in there, but I love pockets (Especially at work!!) & easy to wear clothes, so jeans/pants get a lot of play. I also thought it would be quite reality based to share what my other 10 or so pics look like before I get the ONE that looks like the goddess I imagine myself to be. The ones that expose all the twists, bends, odd angles & shitty posture my body naturally prefers. There’s no trick camera angles to disguise my real body, but once in a while, I get the exact pic I wanted. I hope this will help others to show themselves as they are because self pride/love is where it’s at & only YOU can do it!! If you don’t bring attention to yourself, it’s beyond easy to ignore a person w a disabling condition. Automatic invisibility is yr super power that you never wanted.

Given all this fashion honesty, I’m def holding my breath for Ford Models Crip Division to call re: my highly paid, diva like contract they want me to sign. I’m just the Crip they’re looking for.
