V Magazine: Shape issue

Recently V Magazine in the states did a shape issue and… WOW! It was just stunning. I know this has been out for some time but it’s my blog and I’ll post what I want! Having spent 10 years working on women's magazines I have seen first hand how influential they can be to a young woman's confidence and just how important it is for women to see ALL shapes and sizes in the media. I don’t support an unhealthy lifestyle, but I do believe it is ok to be bigger than a size 10 if that is your natural body shape. This is a fantastic example of what should be common in mainstream media (and not needing a special issue to do so)
