I mean, just go watch the new Shakira and Beyonce video, Beautiful Liar. I normally take zero interest visually in female celebrities, because I don't find them attractive. Shakira and Beyonce, however, I could really get used to. Small waist, big hips and butt, nice hourglass figures. I'm in like Flynn.
Do you still wish skinny was in? Do you like the curvy look that is coming in? Do you think that curvy still isn't in? Share your thoughts.

I'm all for the curvey look, though I doubt you'll ever see it become big in the fashion world. Speaking of which, I don't find the typical Kate Moss, heroin chic, skinny-as-a-rail fashion model look to be attractive at all. Plus the fact that some of these models are literally dying to stay thin!

truthfully, i find the skinny look repulsive. it honestly baffles me how a woman can starve herself to a size that 95% of the female population is not, just because some magazine says that they are fat. I'm 5'10" and proportioned just fine 36-25-37. There is no way that I would want to be a size 1... I'd look like skelator. I think that woman should embrace their natural curves.

Personally, I'm glad curvy is coming back.
Now I can give Atkins a break, lol. J/K...I gave Atkins a break a long time ago. It's hard to live without carbs for 12 day stretches at a time, lol.
I'll never see a size 5 again, at least not on me, but the hubs seems to have a harder time keeping his hands off me now than when I was 22, dark, skinny & hot. Whatever works, I say. Nature made us curvy and curvy we shall be. hahahaha

i more like the trend now, women being curvy and not skinny. Skinny women looked like all bones, and nothing appealing in that. And most men likes their women to have a little flesh
