Id make a snarkastic comment here about “the power of editing yada yada yada” but Im too in awe of the power of editing to come up with anything.
You’d never know it was FREEZING outside.
You’d never know I was feeling like an awkward, spastic gazelle.
AND, on top of it all, you can even see a snippet of my Seuss-sleeve.
Thank YOU for voting for me and thanks to FILA for staying true to the Real Women concept and portraying me precisely as I am (70 second video below).
