You may have heard, just a couple of weeks ago, that Lindsay and I are battling to the death to see whose shape is better.

…Oh, wait. That’s not true.

Firstly, Lindsay and I are sort of the same general shape (hourglass – though mine’s shorter and we are made using totally different kinds of sand) and second, the differences in our shapes are bangin’. I mean, look at us:

How YOU doin’?

Third, as we’ve said since The Demoiselles took its first digital breath, every shape is beautiful. We’re fans of straights, pears, rectangles, apples…if it’s a shape, and a woman looks like it, we dig it. That’s why we entered 365 Hangers’ Style a Shape contest.

Through August 5, Lindsay and I will be competing with tons of differently-styles and shaped-women (all stunners in their own right) in order to win a fashion prize package worth $500. Though Lindsay listed lots of good reasons to go vote for us earlier this month on Broke & Beautiful, I’m going to add a few of my own:

1. Our shapes rock, but they don’t define us. The above styles cater to our hourglass body types, but there’s no rule that says you have to accentuate a small waist, or play up great legs, or pretend you have whatever it is society says the ideal body is. Lindsay’s fashion choices make her look like an apple here, and I’m pretending to be straight-bodied in this outfit post.
2. You’ll be helping to promote pro-body acceptance businesses. Just clicking over to 365 Hangers and voting – for anyone! – reminds the rest of the ‘net that you support websites that offer style options for all kinds of women (and voting for us supports the pro-acceptance work we do over here).
3. It’s really, really easy to vote. There’s nothing to sign up for, no one to give your email address to. If you have a Facebook, you can vote by simply “liking” our style on 365 Hangers’ website. And you can vote for both of us!

Will you vote for us?

I hope I’ve given you good cause to at least click over to 365 Hangers and consider giving one or both of us a vote…and maybe, if you’re feeling especially generous, leave a comment!
