Mondays KFOR-TV, Rise & Shine style segment: Fluffy Fur (faux) I still remember the second time, in my life, (there are many others!) I ever felt fat. To be clear, feeling fat is relative, every individual has a threshold of what that means (weight/look) for them. I was 16 years old, 510 and a mere 125 lbs. Ha, already for some of you the thought of 125lbs IS fat! For me, however, 125lbs was a bone fragment. I was skin & bones. Still, it was Christmas morning, I put on my brand new genuine Coyote fur coat and felt like the Michelin man. I felt 5 times my original size. I felt awkward and self conscious. I never wore the coat out in public to my parents (the givers) chagrin. I kept the coat, I wore it in the house and I loved sleeping on it. Eventually I went to college, moved into the sorority house where the coat was stolen. I have more fur coat stories, all culminating into the same basic premise, I dont wear them because I feel fat, no, rather I feel huge! A part of felling huge, I realize, is the shear size of my almost 6 body frame....which, I agree, tall people do have some advantages. But, feelings are feelings, and Ive learned that no matter how, special, expensive or designer something is, if the wearer doesnt feel thin, or, in essence, beautiful, it doesnt matter how wonderful it is, she wont wear it! Tune in Monday morning for my, how to wear this seasons hottest trend, fur (faux), and not look fat on Rise & Shine.
