Winnie Harlowe

clothing, wedding dress, woman, dress, bride, If you're going to follow models on Instagram, you should consider following Winnie Harlowe.

Winnie has a skin condition called vitiligo, does that make her any less gorgeous? No! She's living proof that any "flaws" you might have really aren't flaws, because the best beauty is natural beauty.

Joanna Thangiah

cartoon, sketch, drawing, 115, eutTHRt, Joanna Thangiah is by far one of my favorite instagrammers. Her style is so unique and eye-grabbing, and each drawing is slightly different—just the way real women are! The women in her pictures all have "flaws"—rolls of fat, body hair, blemishes, etc. But that isn't the main point of the pictures, because a woman is worth more than her body, whether it's perfectly airbrushed or perfectly imperfect. She draws real women with her own artistic twist and pairs them with motivational, quirky, or feminist phrases.

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Why is it now in the last 25-30 years we "need" and have self image nonsense? Oh maybe because people are overweight and everyone has to make them feel ok about themselves. Ridiculous.

--unsatisfied with their bodies. So maybe next time think about that before you say something rude and that justifies making fun of/bully people for their weight.

Ashley Graham should be on this list!

I love this!!

@Liz no honey, it's because the situation is so desperate we actually developed freakin' illnesses because of body image; it's because teen girls who are slim as a stick throw up their lunch; it's because 99% of women no matter what their shape are--
