Freckly Shoulders and White Legs
Tuesday, April 29th, 2008
So during one of my plane rides over the weekend I sat next to a woman who was wearing self tanner. For those of you who don’t know self tanner stinks!!! It sort of smells the same as when you come out of a tanning bed, burnt skin. That is the closest thing I can think of to describe the smell. Anyways it was awful. The smell got stuck in my sinuses and gave me a headache and tickled the back of my throat.
I think we all need to stand up against this. What is wrong with white skin? or as I like to call it my beautiful porcelain skin with freckles. Someone first decided to be tan was very beautiful. Then we all found out that the sun ages us so fast that the beauty doesn’t last very long and it gives us cancer. So then we decided to lather ourselves up with a stinky lotion that dyes our skin an odd orange color.
One time while wearing self tanner someone asked me if I had Native American in my blood. I felt stupid. Another time I tried the spray tan and my feet faded really weird and half my toes and feet were bright white and the other half orange and someone asked me if it was a birthmark. Ha Ha!!! It did look like one.
So I propose we all take a stand and bring back into style white legs and freckly shoulders. And if there is a little stubble on your legs who cares! It can be beautiful, we just need to show people it is.
I agree, sun gives us cancer and self tanner stinks! Let’s take a stand and while we are at it can we take a stand and bring back that being chubby is beautiful and makes us more desirable?
also could you write about why and when you shaved your head.
Yes, lets bring back the whiter and chubbier your are the sexier you are.
Great idea Natelli. Love it.
crap. I wear self tanner all the time. In fact, I was just about to go put some on so I could be tan for you at work tomorrow. Just for you, Im coming to work white tomorrow.
if white and chubby are sexy – I am one smokin babe!
Ooh-la-la! I agree, self tanner is so smelly. Bob hates it, and would rather I go to a tanning booth than wear that stuff. But the older I get I care less. Besides the real motivation is getting in shape–I think you can pull off just about any skin color if your legs are more toned (my life long goal:-).
I am stalking your blog Tam! I must say it’s one of my favorite blogs. Well, I have the tan but I am plenty chubby so I am half way there! ~ Marie
