Hey Bold Queens,
As of recently , R&B singer Jazmine Sullivan has been giving us some major style on and off the stage. The creativity and design within her pieces captivated us so much ,that today we rounded up 8 times the she served us with style !Check out the images below along with quotations from Sullivan’s newly interview with Huffington Post on body positive images and messages.
Sullivan, within her interview stated “I know that I represent a lot of women out there who aren’t used to seeing themselves portrayed, and I’m happy to be that woman. I feel everybody needs to see themselves. Everybody needs to be able to look up to someone and see somebody that looks or acts like them so that they can be inspired.”
“There aren’t a lot of plus size women in the industry, but I’m one. I feel like I made it through to some degree through the other side, to say the least. But they aren’t a lot,”
“Love yourself the way you are…it’s a constant struggle, so I don’t want to preach something that’s unrealistic,” Sullivan said. “Because where I’m at, I’m constantly reminding myself of my good qualities and trying to affirm myself positively. So I understand sometimes you’re just not feeling yourself, but you have to love yourself for who you are.”
“I feel it’s all about representation. So I feel like I’m needed as far as being seen on covers and in magazines,” she said.
“Women who look like me, women with regular bodies need to see women that look like themselves. So I would love to be one of those women to represent them.”
