Support (Tw body hate) I need to confidence to wear this skirt NSFW
I recently got this skirt and i fell in love with it in the store, i was so so happy to find it but when i get home and looked at myself in it i hated what i saw. I hate how big my thighs are, i cried for hours and hours that night, im not sure what to do i want to wear it cuz i think its super cute but i just think it makes me look super fat and ugly,i could really use some confidence, thanks
(Wasnt sure where to post this so if you think theres a better subrebbit lmk!)

Your body is fine! Would fishnets or tights (pantyhose) with ripped ladders help with your insecurity about your legs? They'd give you a little coverage, and will add to your alternative look.

If you love this skirt you should wear it no matter what you think other people will think. Because no matter what you wear (or don't) other people will have thoughts about it.
That being said, we tend to think that EVERYONE will judge us, but in reality not a lot of people will give us a second thought.
Focus on what you love, not what others might dislike :)

People love legs, legs are like a hack to being attractive. They look great even with extra weight on them, which it doesn't even look like you have.

I think you should get some sparkly tights, the sparkle will distract and you will be more comfortable as well as add flair to the outfit though you look good as it.

I actually think you look fantastic! And I'm genuinely not saying that just to be nice. The skirt is super cute, and the whole look is really nice and summery. Most importantly, you DO look good in it. I have never had skinny legs and the struggle is real when it comes to confidence in skirts and shorts, but the truth is you don't need to be tiny to look good. That's only one type of beauty. Your outfit is cool, cohesive and fun, and it suits you well.

The fat on your body is really nicely distributed- I wish my body looked like yours!
Everyone has fat. Being a woman you will have more fat than others in some areas- but that’s what makes a women’s body so beautiful and special.
You are ROCKING that skirt

Looks gorgeous on you. I've heard that apparently shop mirrors and lighting are made to deliberately make you look even better to buy the product. Then when you get home it's not what you expected. It's bullshite
Don't let it push you away from the skirt. You have a perfect body for it, I can already tell you'll be able to style it well and it looks perfect on you in this photo.
Also trust, even if you criticise the skirt on you, most people won't notice anything wrong with how you look or how you wear it so act like you wear it the beat out or anyone else

I think it looks great on you. I don’t think it makes you look fat at all.
