[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm overweight and give off a very polished look. It's all in the way you carry yourself. My make up is always impeccable. I wear high end workout clothing. Large diamond studs (mine are fake from nordstrom but no one would ever know). A little bit of self tanner goes a long way. Understated designer bag. As for hair, my advice is that if you're a brunette, go dark. Light brown, washed out hair doesn't work for anyone. Do a deep, rich brown and it will lighten your face and give you a more polished, exotic look.[/quote] I'm sorry, but overweight says "I don't give a fuck," not "polished."[/quote] I'm sorry, but the person who wrote this is cruel, crass, and about as unpolished as you can get: I am not overweight -- in fact, I am formerly anorexic and thank God have left those days behind -- but I am mightily aware that anyone who feels this kind of comment is appropriate to post even anonymously is weighed down with emotional baggage. To the person who posted this: I hope you feel better about yourself soon. From the vantage point of 50, I've learned that this kind of comment comes most readily from someone whose insecurities, anxieties, or 'other stuff' gets in the way of kindness. To the poster who realizes polished comes in all kinds of ways, kudos to you.[/quote] Wow, PP you are an ass. My best friend has a physical impairment that no one sees and no one knows about, just one or two of us close friends. Some might consider her overweight. Mostly, men love her and women (who do not know her) hate her. Honestly, my best friend is gorgeous. She is outgoing, happy, accomplished, successful, educated, kind and generous. She has a great life and a great family. She keeps haters at bay, smartly. She should be the type who is smug, snarky and a nasty (according to the behavior on this board) - like the male "big swinging dick" syndrome (read: teeny tiny peeny IRL). But she is wise and knows that life is short, and nasty people are a dime a dozen. She is loaded, but dresses very casually. Sometimes yoga pants and sneakers, for example. But she is such a great person to know, that she comes across as polished to me and everyone that knows her. She has her life together better than anyone, and she is not a jerk about it. That kind of person is the most polished to me. Anyone that knows her wants to be just like her, and she is always asked for advice because of how successful she is. [/quote]
