I thought i was watching this on ×1.5 speed.
Me too
If you put it on 0.75x it fixes that
She does talk fast. I know people like that, and was able to adjust. The good thing about that is that she gets a lot of information out without wasting time in the video. We can be thankful for that.
I'm actually watching this (and many other videos) at 2x speed. :D
Same but love her anyways
Your title might be click baity, but the respectful way you discuss the content is so perfect and more than makes up for it. Thank you for this one :)
How is it click bait?
In the first 5 seconds of the video she states "I knew you guys would click on it because you think that about yourselves". She titled it the way she did for the right reason at least. Regardless, that was the least important part of my comment. I was merely trying to state my appreciation for how she handled a sensitive topic with such respect and positivity.
I think it's shitty to play on women's negative emotions about themselves to get clicks, especially since she just bashed beauty bloggers for being bad role models for her younger sister in a previous video.
@@lindsaygoodwin3140 blah blah
@@user-jy9rq8nj7q I'm sorry, it doesn't matter how positive the message is, she's playing on people's insecurities to get clicks. That's not nice to do.
Shortly before this video she made a video on how to pose generally, it was the same exact advicen and was lively and full of body positivity. This was a redundant video that was produced to get clicks by exploiting the insecurities of women she can't relate to. And it surprised me because she used to produce great body positivity content before she blew up.
Fortunately, she didn't seem to continue this kind of clickbaiting, hopefully it was a one off. However, after this video, I started watching her less and less, and now I don't watch her anymore.
I don't understand why people are so shocked by the word "fat". This video was very positive and didn't shame anyone. She even included photos of many inspirational curvy models as examples. Some women really need to learn to have confidence and self love. Look within yourself and truly love the person that you are. Look at your assets and take advantage of them girlfriends. Everyone is beautiful and have a gift to offer this world. :)
The title was clickbaity but as long as the message is good thats all that matters :)
Those models weren’t curvy, they were fat.
Fat is not an insult
Thin is not a compliment 😏
everybody wantstobeacat I’m sorry, let me rephrase that. They were obese. It’s not healthy to be that size. Facts don’t care about your feelings. When you are that big, the heart will be under constant stress, which will increase the chance of a heart attack. Having few extra pounds is not a big deal, but being 100 pounds overweight is absolutely wrong, and none of those women should promote unhealthy lifestyles. The simple reason why they do it? Money.
@@vahemirzoyan7715 actually you are wrong. Science and facts actually don't agree with you 💁 However the diet industry has been feeding everyone these lies for a very long time so your mistake is understandable.
However these bigger women aren't promoting any lifestyle at all, they are just existing. Meanwhile the number of celebrity who are endorsing dangerous weightloss pills or "detox" diarrhea teas is still way too high. Who's really promoting an unhealthy lifestyle here?
Unhealthy people, thin or fat, have the right to exist publicly. Fat-shaming is proven to worsen everyone's health. So can we stop there?
Any one else love how she changes places all the time?
Elly Kovy I get bored really easily and this really combatted that disinterest. Actually watched all the video, which isn’t the most common thing for me!
Thanks for pointing that out!! I feel it help with keeping the viewers attention!
To the people who say she feeds off peoples insecurities: at my heaviest weight, i would have loved her advice. How many times have i been at a beautiful place and asked someone to take a photo of myself just to be so disapointed at home because i looked bad in the photo. Even now at a lower weight i still had those struggles and it took me some time to realize: there are unflattering positions. With tips on how to pose, you get photos you will be proud to hang on your walls. Photos that will make you smile and not make you think "oh that photo would look better without me in it". These kinds of tips help my self esteem because they show me without any photoshop how beautiful i can be. They make me proud of myself
I have absolutely no photos of myself at my heaviest because I was so insecure, having this kind of advice be available combined with the message of self acceptance, I might've actually been confident enough to take photos of myself then.
Exactly! Have gained weight and have to lose because of my back, and the last trips we did with my lover I didn't like the pictures he took of me, even if he tells me x10000 times that I'm so beautiful. I don't feel like it. These tips are so great and she is so positive, help a bit in my self esteem and maybe, in a month when I'll go to Bucarest, I will like me in pictures a little bit more! The key is self confidence, love yourself and grow our self esteem! We're like plants, we just have to continue to grow and transform in a beautiful flower!
@@minapaoli1102 you got it girl :). Self confidence is so important and if learning how to pose helps with that, then that is awesome
Love this! And this advice works for women of any shape! I'm pretty slender but I think we all take photos once in a while where we think "I look like I'm 30 pounds heavier than I am!" I never realized that when I hold my arm flat to my body and have it closest to the camera, that's why my arm looks larger than it feels in real life. The advice she gives is very positive and can help us feel like the best version of ourselves.
True! I have photos from the exact same day and I like myself in one picture and in the other one I just don't. There a just tricks for good angles and I appreciate her video!
"Why you are FAT in photos?"
Me:*looks down*
Me:... Because I am fat...
Manuela Martinez 😂😂😂😂😂
Was going to write the same...but knew someone would beat me to it 😂
Let me add.....theres no QUICK fixing it
HAHAHAHA SAME!!! Didn't need to look down... hahahaha
LOL
😂😂
I actually appreciate your clickbait! Your disclaimer was quick and to the point,, I LOVED THE VIDEO
Could you do a video like this but for men? I find it hard to find good videos about posing as a man. Of course a lot talked about in this video applies to men too but yeah idk how to pose. i look like a tree stump
She did a video like this a month ago
+Deliciously Happi Thanks for the shout 🙏🏾❤️
Wait - your videos look so interesting ! For now I just followed, but I will def look into them tomorrow ! Also you seem to be really cute and the themes you talk about are super interesting and right down my alley ! There is a german yter who does her "Mystery Monday", but your channel is basically just my favourite format 😍
Isabel Martin thank you omg!!
You`re a star for asking this question!
A suggestion: I think it would make a great video if you talk about what to do now that you have 328 pictures of yourself? Delete the blurred ones, okay. But could you maybe sometime share your views/advice on topics like:
-how to choose between two closely resembling pictures (minute details that make a difference)
-identifying what emotion a picture consists of most? (and how to expand on it?)
-why you shouldn't delete all of your pictures in a fit of nervousness because you're not used to looking at your face from different angles.
-objectively good vs subjectively good pictures.
-basically how to look for the needle in the haystack?
-also, how to get aggressive chicken to be a part of your video?
These points make sense, right? RIGHT? 'Cause they do in my head.
xoxo
Rahi. I totally agree!!! I love this
YESSS
Rahi. Good idea. Would love that too
Omg yes!
Rahi. Great idea!!
Britney Spears is the only woman who can make low waisted jeans work
No, Christina Aguilera looked stunning too with low waisted jeans.
Actually, I know quite a few women that can rock low waisted jeans.
Any woman that has a flat belly actually.
Megan Fox
charlotte vegan It was clearly a joke sis
Diana Laura her too
no. bella hadid is
Short, to the point, professional and respectful. As a curvy and plus size lady I didn't feel offended for even a second. Thank you for being open-minded and tactful. All the best.
6:25 "Don't crush your beautiful body that is trying to take you thru life!" THANK! YOU! Best quote I've EVER heard! Thank you SOOOO MUCH!
😍
Also find someone who will spend a moment longer taking a good photo of you. Paying attention to details and waiting for you to find a good position. Your photographer is really important and if they don't care, sometimes you will look not your best in the capture.
Veronica Watson This is true, some people just take a single photo of you bc you asked them and they don’t even look if it turned out good, they just snap it and hand it back to you. But what you gonna do if that’s the only person you can ask lol :’)
🙌🏻 have not found one yet... still looking 🤩😁🤷🏻♀️
The main reason I look fat in photos because I have fat on my body idc
Honestly, she seems like she has such a cute personality, that little pep talk was so cute.
Her body is amazing, she's just so beautiful.
I loved your personality! So relaxed and cheerful. Also don't apologise for using the word fat, it's about time we stop stigmatizing that word.
🙌🏻 amen sistah ✨✨
As someone who has been anywhere between 110 and 205 pounds (standing at 5’2) I can’t thank you enough for this. I’m on the smaller side now, but this would’ve made me feel so loved and understood at my higher weight. Thank you!!! 🖤
If that's you in the picture, you look so friendly and beautiful!! :) also congratulations on the weight loss, amazing!
@@JustNatax3 Thank you so much for those kind words!! I still have a long way to go but the encouragement from beautiful & wonderful people like you is what keeps me going. You've seriously made my day haha. Thank you so much
Mau I ask how you lost the weight ?? I'm on a similar journey currently and would love some advice
FYI - this is day 2 of #LivingLikeCasey. No update in this video on that because as I mentioned in yesterdays video, I am not copying Casey's life or work approach 100%, I'm just following his routine. So that's why this video is still my usual content that is either photography based, travel or human optimisation. Tomorrow though I have a special surprise video for you I know you'll love! Let me know what you thought of this video also! Was it helpful?
Ps. Sorry again about the lame title but you clicked on it ;)
When I saw the title I was like: this is so not like Sorelle. And then the video started and it all made sense. So much positive and respectful words
You are so considerate. Love your content
I remember watching one of your videos that recommends not squishing your arms to your body, and today we had an event and I remembered that whilst taking photos and my arms looked toned and fit😂,,,,, so yes, your videos are very helpful 😊😊😊
Hi, did this famous blogger consent to you using her photo like that ?
I clicked on it so haaaard
Lots of great information. I am one of those who feels that she looks terrible in photos. I remember when I did not think so, so other than aging, and a few extra pounds, I wonder where it all went wrong. Your tips give me hope - and so I will smile and go about my day knowing that the next time a photo op becomes unavoidable - I now know how to pose. Bless your heart! XOXOXO
You’re right - the title raised my eyebrows, but you approached the topic beautifully and gracefully Sorelle. Thanks for being you.
(Sorry i dont know how to write in english 😅😅😅) Me encantó tu mensaje: "ama a tu cuerpo porque es el que carga tu hermosa alma y te esta llevando por la vida!!!" Gracias Gracias Gracias sorelle 😍😍😍😍
I just clicked on it, because YOU write FAT in your TITLE... And I was like: I can't believe you did that... But it works, I clicked on the video haha
@@gwensi1027 I agree
I thought fat wasn’t a bad word. So y u acting like it’s so bad. It’s a word, and ur trying to censor everyday life
@@carsonlacy6277 nobody is fat, that is the reason. Some people are curved or plus size, but I don't call it fat 😅 I hope you understand what I mean, sorelle can switch fat for curved or plus size, so yeah
I get what u mean. I think if we’re gonna live in a world that truly accepts over weight ppl then Censoring the word fat - making it a a stigma with bad- is not helping. Censoring ppl has never helped any organization with their movement
Jesca x why? It’s fat. We all have fat. Some have less of it, some have more. Censorship isn’t going to help.
your shots are STUNNING. literally, I'm in awe.
I really loved how genuine, warm and loving you were in this video. I'm glad you used the title because I clicked on the video! Awesome work.
You're just so kind and thoughtful. Seriously, your videos make me feel so positive. ♡
I love how she speaks so fast and clear
I love how you handle these topics with respect and maturity. There’s a lightness in you that I really admire and I just love watching your videos so much! Keep up the great work Sorelle ☺️👍🏻
I just found your channel from this video, and I just love your personality. I find it so hard to find genuine content creators that dont sound super fake. Love this !
Thanks for the ending peptalk! I'm a curvy, little person and this helps a lot! Love yaaah!
How do you even manage to make such good content frequently! You provide so much value🤩
I was thinking the same. She is great
Yeah! Totally
Your wording is so gentle, thank you for being you. 💎
The tips here are SUPER helpful. Thanks so much, Sorelle!
I'm only 51 seconds in and I already love her and how sensitive she is to other woman's body shapes and potential hang ups 💪
Thank you for being so positive and really helpfull! It doesn't matter what your size is, as long as your are confident it doesn't matter how you look
I just wanna say you talk so fast and I LOVE THAT! Finally I don't have to speed up the video! Love your confidence!
Advice without shame and a great personality is sooo refreshing!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 That's so cool. What you just said at the beginning of the video.
I love this video for so many reasons! Realistic photo tips plus women empowerment sprinkled throughout the video! 😌
"Don't crush your beautiful body which is trying to take you through life and is just housing your perfect soul in there." Sorelle, you are a beautiful person and these words really make a huge impression on me. I'm typing through tears cos I'm so moved. I'm not curvy, I'm like your shape and am always annoyed by comments people make - go eat a pie or they ask if I have an eating disorder. I've been hard on myself but not anymore. Your words went straight to my heart. Much love, safe travels. 💕💕🙏
Okay, this is my first time seeing one of your videos ...and i love everything about it. you , your style, your personality, the place, EVERYTHING.
I have broad shoulders too! I need to learn to not hate them 😩
I love broad shoulders, I think they comunicate strength, you should love them 😊
I love my broad shoulders...
They help make your waist look smaller usually. So that's a plus. I feel ya though cause I have very broad shoulders
i have broad shoulders and a manly stance, but i have womenly curves and a nice shape so i’m hella confused. i’m also heavy set and look pretty intimidating so i’m screws for life
I love mine. It looks like swimmers shoulders 😃
Amazing video!! One for short people pleaseeeeeee????!
Oh Sorelle! You are so inspiring! Run out of your fresh videos so I am now going back in time and I can't help but say how beautiful, joyful and inspiring human being you are, I absolutely love watching your life journey!
I don't even know you but you make me so happy, Your whole vibe is so chill and happy and I love it
As a 27yo male, I appreciate her calling me honey so sassily
OMG, such a lovely personality ❤️
Your growth has been unbelievable these past few months. You are one of the hardest working tubers out that and I am so glad it is paying off. Your growth is no doubt because you give actual helpful videos, such as this, with your amazing experience as a photographer. If all this happens in a year, I can't wait to see where you are next year!
What a lovely cheerful personality she has! Every second she talks, she talks with a big smile on her face. That's beautiful!
Nice photos. I generally don’t photograph well. Sometimes I don’t care. I look like what I look like.
Sweet, i needed the corny advice sooooo bad today, thank you!!!!😗
I love how passionate and bubbly you are. Brilliant vid!
YOUR PERSONALITY, CAMERA WORK, & WHO YOU ARE IS WHAT MAKES THESE VIDEOS DOPE. I BELIEVE IN YOU & THIS CHANNEL.
LETS GO!💯💯‼️
Why is there a rooster inside your house?!
pile333 Indonesia. There are chicken everywhere.
If you watch more of her past videos, you will learn that she does not have a traditional house. She continually travels with her boyfriend to different countries + does airb&b because of her work and also for personal betterment. A really amazing lifestyle..
But hey haha that is a good question anyways too. The rooster must belong to a nearby neighbor!
I have chickens sleeping in my room
Yes Sorelle I liked the video. I especially appreciated the fact that you sound so much calmer, I think you are brilliant and I enjoy your content but I stopped watching you because there was just too much “energy “ coming at me 😍. Please take this as a “good comment “ no bad vibes here, just how I felt 🌹 Anyways I am back and happy to be. Peace ✌️
You are such a sweetheart! Coming from a fat, curvy woman, no offense was taken to anything in this video. The title doesn't even bother me after watching its entirety. You exude love and acceptance and the world needs more of this, so thank you. Really, thank you! Subscribed!
I just love how positive you are! Even when you’re talking about your own “flaws”, it’s in such a loving way and with a smile on your lips... it becomes obvious that there is no such thing as a flaw :) And the tips are so great as well!
Yyyyuuuuuusssssssss *insert oprah meme* I have been wanting a video like this ever since I found your channel. Not mad at the title at all, as soon as I saw it I knew it was going to be good 😂😂
I'm skinny thick and when people take pictures of me I look fat so this was helpful
same this was so helpful for me for that reason too !
What does sticky thick mean?
I love how you addressed the video title right away! Love you Sorelle! Am one of your Biggest fans
I could tell almost immediately this vid came from a place of love. Thanks. Very respectful and well presented. I think you're great 👍
was this sped up? 0.75 speed it is much better
Message of self love ✔️. Helpful Tips✔️. Funny ✔️. Pet chicken (I think lol)✔️.
Thank you for this!! You are sooo right!! All of us women and men should learn to be happy in our skin!!!
Thank you so much for the insight. Your Advanced Selfies are no doubt the best.
Can you make a video like this for the girls like you and I with little to no curves? It's great you're including other/curvy body types but don't forget about yours!
Pretty much all poses/lighting/clothes work for smaller body types, fat distribution in larger bodies makes it harder to find certain angles
@@IamMissPronounced Hello! In my experience I have nit found that to be true. It's hard to pose larger bodies but it's hard to pose skinny ones too. I have trouble posing myself and, because of my broad shoulders, feel awkward in some clothing which is something Sorelle can relate to and help with.
Do squats then.
Could you do one on how to look like you have curves when you have none?
Two minutes into the video, I hit like! Somehow you sounded so respectful of people of different sizes
How refreshing! Was ready to watch and rant but you just won me over in the first minute. Thank you for this and your corney message. All the love
❤❤
The snap back of my neck when I saw Sorelle write “FAT” next to a pic of one of my favorite curvy bloggers lol....good video though♥️
She's beautiful! Who is she?
@@moonbounce17 her name is Tanesha Awasthi
I hate to break it to you, Sorelle- but I look fat in photos because I am indeed fat. 😂😂😂
But are you loving yourself in the photographs?
AnnonRhi Most of the time~ I’m working on myself to get to the weight I’d feel comfortable in. It’s not just the photographs, it’s overall self esteem. You definitely could manipulate your poses or photos to feel comfortable in photos- but if you’re not comfortable with yourself, you’ll hate the photo no matter what. I believe that’s what she explain in this vid~~ 😊
I love how you talk about this. Thanks.
Absolutely love the message AND the tips! You are amazing!
Who is the girl in the video thumbnail? I NEED that dress! Thanks!
3:33 * me going so far back that you don't see me in the frame anymore *
This video was probably the BEST one I've seen on the topic...& believe me, I've watched A LOT! Thanks!!!
i LOVE how you deliver the tips you're just amazing!
Ladies. Wear what you want, regardless of your body shape.
No slouching....unless you're Rihanna!!
#youknowwhatpicimtalkingabout
your energy is soooo positive!!!
I’m not even a woman and you made me feel good, comfy and powerful. Damn
Notification gang! But I think I’m TOO early! Lol
Nevermindddd
WELCOOOMMMEE! Better early then too late!!
Oh, I thought this was going to be about some technical reason why I look bigger in photos compared to when I look in the mirror..
It is
I love your energy and how you talk exactly down to the point❤️
I gave you a thumb's up because of your huge energy filling out of the camera!
I was scared to watch the video and was avoiding it for a few hours because I love your content so much and didn't wanna have something bad to think about you. But I loved the video. It was full of great information and uplifting advice, as always.
The thing is, being fat, the title hurts me, even with the nice message on the video. There's nothing to fix about it. I am fat. I will always look fat on photos. And there's nothing wrong with that. I can make my body look more curvy and my arms less 'squishy' and 'blobby', of course. But it hurts that we have to hear we are wrong, less of, not even human enough, you know? I do understand why you did it, but as someone with such great things to say, I thought you may want to hear some feedback from someone who actually is fat and after lots of strugles feels awesome and unapologeticaly happy with myself everyday, just like you said.
Sorry for such a long message, and thank you. Always.
I clicked on this video like a starved person lunges for the food. Being fat has always been one of my biggest insecurities. I actually stopped clicking pictures of myself from the age of 10 to 17 because i was a big size girl at that time. And i burned or deleted any picture that someone else may click. Even now i don’t click pictures of myself until i am absolutely sure that i am not looking fat or wide. It has gotten to the point where i am almost cynical about it. And even a single comment about my body or size makes me go batshit crazy. I don’t take my pictures neither do i let anyone take them. The only pictures i have of myself are selfies and even then they are so sparse. Maybe after this video I’d take a full body picture of mine.
I appreciate this. I feel better about the photos people take of me. I am obese but the pictures intensify my obesity. I just stood in the mirror and thought I'm making progress in weight loss, but you wouldn't know that in the photo the waitress took and my friend sent me.
Practicing your advanced selfie tips have totally changed my perception of what I look like in a good way. Thanks so much!
You may have done only one swimsuit runway in the past, but some of these poses are typical modeling poses.
Surely it must be hard for you to look fat in photos; you do have curves too, they're just sporty curves (healthy curves).
LMFAO the title
U seem so positive and enthusiastic. I wish I could be more like that
I never really comment on any video but ma'am you killed it. SO FREAKING POSITIVE!❤️
James Charles : i speak too fast
Sorelle : Hold my camera
At first I thought my speed of the video was at 1.25
Oh god! Love watching all your videos and tips. It actually works. You sound so fun. Like you are enjoying to your fullest. Keep up the good work. Love your channel.
Your disclaimer at the beginning made me subscribe before we even got into the vid, I can't even fault the clickbait title cos well... here I am, exactly like you said!
Thank you for your sensitive and light approach to what is such a difficult topic for so many women, curvy or not!
is this video sped up? it feels so fast lol. good content though
I thought that at first so I looked at other videos of hers and I genuinely think she just talks that fast, that or she speeds up a lot of her videos to get more information into them...
I speak stupidly fast. Sorry kiddos. Haha. Turn the speed down to 0.75x and it sounds more normal :)
I watched it on x75 haha I couldn't keep up it's too late at night!!
I am not fat, but some clothes make me look fat on the photos :))))
LOVED it babes.... Especially the energy of the video.... I smiled right through it....
You have so much positive energy !
