This body-positive model reminds us that size is just a number (and that number doesn’t matter)

While you probably don’t want to cut off all the tags on your clothes (sometimes washing instructions and stuff are nice), a body-positive blogger reminded us on Instagram that when it comes to clothes, size does not matter. The British Megan Jayne Crabbe runs bodyposipanda and has used her harrowing struggles with eating disorders as inspiration to help others learn to accept their bodies just as they are. And that includes not worrying what size pants you wear.
In her post, Crabbe wrote:
"Fun fact: these are officially the largest size jeans I own, and guess what? The number on the label has absolutely zero effect on how I feel while wearing them!"

If you’ve ever squeezed yourself into the size you thought you should be rather than wearing the size you actually are because going up a clothing size made you feel bad about yourself, Crabbe is here to remind you how that’s completely unnecessary. She wrote:
"If you're still squishing yourself into uncomfortable clothes because you don't wanna buy the next size up — I swear it'll be worth it. Your comfort is important, and the actual number doesn't matter one bit 😘💜💙💚🌈🌞"
When you look at Crabbe in her adorable pink crop top and her AMAZING ripped, floral jeans, you don’t think for one second about what size she is wearing, right? So, there’s no need to stress about the size of your clothes if they make you feel good about yourself. And her post is a fabulous reminder that size is just a number — and that number doesn’t matter.
