Paris Hilton size 14…Really????

If anyone happened to catch the front page of Heat this week you will have seen the declaration ‘Size 14 is the new sexy!’ Personally I think sex appeal has absolutely nothing to do with your dress size but let’s go with it for a minute.
Flick through to page six and cue the before and after pics of our fav celebs sporting their new ‘size 14′ figures. Among them…Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Britney Spears and Heidi Range of Sugarbabes fame – in what universe are ANY of these celebs a size 14?! Sure the use of dodgy photo angles and baggy clothes may make these ladies look a little bigger than usual but come on people, who are they kidding?!
What I don’t understand is what this article is trying to achieve? Is it trying to make us ‘normal’ people feel better about ourselves?? Realistically, all it is doing is forming a completely distorted image of size in our heads, and for the more impressionable readers, making them feel bigger than they actually are!
The truth of the matter is true sex appeal is all about confidence, embracing what you are and making the most of it – regardless of your size. I’m sure I’m not the only woman tired of being ‘too fat’ or ‘too skinny’ to be sexy. Whether you’re a Kate Moss or a Marilyn Monroe, a pair of kitten heels, sexy dress and a sassy attitude is all you need to unleash your inner sex goddess – and that ladies will last much longer than ‘the new sexy!’
