I have a theory about our insecurities about our appearance and I’m curious to know if you agree with me: . . So here goes: The one thing that we are the MOST insecure about is most often the ONE thing that other people wouldn’t even notice unless you point it out to them. . . Mine is showing my feet. Odd really, considering I come from an Indian / Muslim background - we are brought up to always take our shoes off on entering the home - and also because my pedicure lady of 17 years always told me I had the nicest feet of all her clients. . . But still, having completely bare feet in a photo makes me feel truly vulnerable and slightly uncomfortable << SWIPE to see how I was thinking about cropping this, and then decided to just go for it! >> . . What’s your Achilles heel (no pun intended!) . 📸 by @frescoclicks who made me feel at ease, even though I was barefoot! . . . . . . . . . #ambarina #beautypassionista #ambarinastyle #30plus2020 #fashiondiaries #fashionblogger #fashionblog #fashionaddict #stylishmum #beautyaddict #glowy #beautypost #indianbeauty #indianbeautyblogger #indianbeautyvlogger #nomakeupmakeup #statementstyle #indianbeautyblog #fashionshoot #whatiworetoday #dailyoutfit #outfitinspo #lessismore #ootd #dresslikeme #wearwhatiwear #barefoot #barefootbeauty #whatweworeonwednesday @elizas_everyday @mummyyastesstyle #wearwhatyouwantwednesday @find.fashionhomebeauty (at Natura Bissé) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8LRLvjFswlzHl4ZSwEDgy7ZlgWF8BXM1QqrUI0/?igshid=1vwhsb62535s6

STEPPING OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE This is not my normal pose, but it felt so good to push myself to do something I normally wouldn’t (I know it’s not a big thing, but you know, baby steps) So maybe just posing for a photograph in a different way isn’t going to change the world, (ok, not maybe, definitely), but I can be so awkward in front of the camera that for me, this is how someone else, maybe someone younger, cooler, less self-conscious would pose Certainly not someone like me, who clams up whenever I need to pose for someone (give me a selfie in the privacy of my home any day). I don’t know what it is that holds me back. I really can’t put words to it. Is it the fear of being laughed at? Is it that I feel I’ll get it wrong? Whatever ‘wrong’ is? Is it a case of ‘imposter syndrome’? Whatever it is, I decided 2020 is the year to bite the bullet and go for it - whatever it is. So many times I’ve skirted the issue when a photographer has suggested do a shoot together, literally to the point of ghosting messages - yes, I’ve been that person But this is the year I’m changing all that. So when @frescoclicks suggested a shoot, I went for it with open arms, and guess what? I loved it. Granted, it took a while for me to warm up and not feel too nervous, but after a while, I kinda eased into it. (I think you can probably see the nerves in this pic, but I’m posting it anyway, as a reminder to myself - you know that cliche… Feel the fear and do it anyway. WHAT ‘COMFORT ZONE’ CHALLENGES HAVE YOU SET FOR YOURSELF?

I wasn’t going to write a long or slushy post, but… you know… :) Happy new year to you all! I’m leaving 2019 feeling blessed, full of love and gratitude, heading into this new year and new decade, ready to embrace it with hope, love and excited for what life may have in store. I want to thank you all for all your love, support, messages, comments and even sharing my account, encouraging me to keep going... I couldn’t have asked for a better start to 2020... I woke up to 10K!!! (If I’d known, I might have done the cliched 10K huge balloons insta-pic, but then again, probably not! 😍) If there’s one thing I’m taking from the past decade it’s to be present in the moment, enjoy and be grateful for the good times and to learn and grow from the bad. Life throws you curveballs; that’s just how life is. It’s not a bad thing, it’s just part of life - the key is how you respond to the those curveballs - they don’t define you but how you respond to them does. And on that note, I wish you all contentment, health & blessings in 2020 and always! . . . . . . . #ambarina #beautypassionista #ambarinastyle #beauty #30plus2020 #ootd #designerfashion #luxurybeauty #skincareroutine #brownbeauty #indianbeauty #browngirlsclub #indianbeautyguru #makeuptutorial #10K #newyear #newyearnewyou #newyearresolutions #newyearintentions #happynewyear #2020 #fitnessfemale #femalefitness #workout #eatclean #ketosis #bulletproofcoffee #personaltrainer #2020vision #2020goals (at London, United Kingdom) https://www.instagram.com/p/B6xvNZPF-R_/?igshid=1tuoeggnfc47z
