Trying a new silhouette, inspired by Hermina from @wondervol I don't really have big issues with my body image, but every now and then I find myself hearing an ancient judgemental voice in my head that just asks to be silenced. Someone (I did) convinced me I couldn't wear an outfit like this with my body type. "I'm too busty." "It's too sexy." "Too tight." Until @lalalaletmeexplain wrote about girls learning to cover up to be safe from the male gaze, ánd behavior, from a very early age. Her post was eerily familiar. And it infuriated me. I sat with my anger for a while. I knew I already did a ton of work on the subject. I will never feel called to wear ultra short and tight, skirts, shorts, shirts and dresses. I'm already conditioned far too long to feel miserable, and unsafe (!), in that type of garments. All respect for those who do wear it with confidence. But I do like to explore my boundaries anyway. @wondervol and I have a similar body type. I know she is taller than I, and has much longer legs. But size wise we're close to each other . Shopping in her @Vinted closet is fun for me. I have seen her wearing shorts and tops a lot lately. She looked good, stylish and comfortable. I tried shorts. I hate them. They keep riding up between my legs, and they give me the same experience as jeans often do: warm and sweaty in the waistline. But I do love a decent singlet or tank top, and skirts. Until this year you wouldn't even find me dead mixing this top with a pencil/slim skirt, without me feeling exposed. But watching other women wear it on here, and liking the style, I figured I could try it too. Make it my own. And here we are. I feel pretty, covered enough to meet colleagues, and airy enough to survive 35 degrees Celsius today. The message? You're never too old to learn and challenge yourself. Keep an open mind and get inspired. Make it your own. I'm ready for this day. Let's see what it brings, especially when wearing marine blue. Happy Friday, crew! #100procentjacqueline #ootd #outfitjacq #colortherapy #trynewstuff #everyday https://www.instagram.com/p/CDlM26wnteVvryEC-LEjd_hga1V_I_CI524d880/?igshid=7r2g0fnsvmzc

Yesterday @andrea_roell (swipe) celebrated 50 years on this planet. She didn't want us to make her a "Sarah" puppet (some weird 50th birthday tradition overhere). She said she'd run away from her own party if we did. So, ofcourse we respected that, and gave her 2 real life "Sarah" who could run after her if we would've had to. 😊 @vansiem and I got to practice our looks and friendship 30 years from now. I might rethink the hairdo by then though. Mind you, I'm 9 years older than V, and I am pushing her. 😂 Happy birthday, Andrea! Have a great year in good health and abundance always! #happybirthday #toyou #friends #bestiesforever #30yearsfromnow (at Café Sportpark) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDWc3AQntXx/?igshid=17lozzadr6soi

Monday. Nowadays Jacq loves Mondays, because her inner nerd gets to learn new stuff through work every workday. Also her inner creative and organizer get to play every workday. And recently yoga got added to the mix. Guess what, my biggest fear going back to work didn't happen. #fibromyalgia is not being a bitch. I ám vigilantly keeping a strict balance between work, play and rest. I'm also successfully adjusting my diet. And somehow this works, and it makes me incredibly happy. Now to learn to trust this balance is here to stay. Bora couldn't care less. Obviously. She's not too keen on me being away for a few hours a week, but as long as I return quickly, and stay the generous treat dispenser I've always been, she's fine. Here you can see her cheerleading me on for a new Monday. 🙋🏼‍♀️😴 #boratherottweiler #100procentjacqueline #boraandme #rottweilers #outfitjacq #ootd #notsponsored Always #vegan makeup Shirt @cocacola #smilewithcocacola Trousers @jacqueline_de_yong for @veromoda Cute art by @hashtagpetra https://www.instagram.com/p/CDJR4YwnUqO/?igshid=nedvasmky4vm

I don't know anybody else who enjoys long car rides as much as Bora does. She usually starts out very excited for the adventure to settle down to quietly take in everything we pass along the way. She didn't even notice me taking the picture which is a very rare occasion Tonight we stopped @mcdonaldsnl for food. She had a burger and some vanilla milkshake. She was so content I hope we'll get to share some more car rides and milkshakes soon. ❤ #iloversomuch #boratherottweiler #rottweilers #boraandme #100procentjacqueline #boratheexplorer https://www.instagram.com/p/CDHnJQgHQoU/?igshid=6onigp0i63t8

Bora's weekend with Jacq's family in Groningen. 1. B posing with Jacq's grandma 2. Grandma asking if B wants a cookie (or 10)? 3. Tasting grandma's cookies. 4. Getting human treats from Jacq's dad. 5. Cuddle session with Jacq's sister. 6. The travel crew. @vansiem We covered it all. So we're on our way home. It was fun to see everyone after months of #covid19 problems. #boraandfriends #boratherottweiler #rottweilers (at Winschoten) https://www.instagram.com/p/CDG-Pz7HI4R/?igshid=z6a4nl4o8g3b

I know, not the best photo ever made but can I just share my pride and joy for a minute? Everybody loves #orchids, right? Well, at least everyone I know does. I buy them every year. I used to kill them every year. But ever since @sam.gym.fanatic became my neighbor and friend he has been teaching me how to take proper care of plants. This orchid was a present and after all the flowers were done blooming, I figured it would leave me sooner or later too. But Osama showed me how to cut and water it. And the magic happened. The plant grew new shoots, new leaves and now new flowers. I never knew something this small and normal could make me so happy. I'm no longer an orchid assassin. 🤗 #100procentjacqueline #plants growingplants #pinkorchid https://www.instagram.com/p/CCxdm0THIWt/?igshid=z1yrs06yqjqc

Find the many differences. Exactly 10 years between these two pictures. I knew Bora had changed much throughout the years but this is a wee bit confronting.. My golden girl looks so different. Rottitude is the same though. #boratherottweiler #rottweilers #seniordog #12yold #100procentjacqueline https://www.instagram.com/p/CCwa9nPnLqi/?igshid=7y4zzswvjg1b

Do you have a friend that always brings light wherever they go? Bora and I have @menas_world She is warm and bright like the Sun. I love her and every minute spent in her company. ❤ #soulsisters #100procentjacqueline #friends #boratherottweiler #boraandme #rottweilers https://www.instagram.com/p/CCtn7sGnsrj/?igshid=x79fjl33rbgj

I already mentioned it in a comment, this girl has a #rottitude and that's why I love her so. She needs a new hashtag. #cloud #cloudtheangelkitten #britishshorthair #kitten #100procentjacqueline https://www.instagram.com/p/CCst1JanHwq/?igshid=1tnm9ivv82i3r

Happy 8th birthday, Lugh! 2020 is a big year for everyone but Lugh got a mom, a feline brother and a human baby sister, and he loves them all. Such a lucky big boy. Happy celebrations, sweet boy, I still love you, and miss your loud complaints. ❤ #lughthecat #lugh #gingercat #gingerboss #lughgangstacat Picture by @julianlindhorst #100procentjacqueline https://www.instagram.com/p/CCp2EZRnUJw/?igshid=yb1kw9f4u74g

"Hi, my name is Cloud. I love roughhousing with my siblings, eating, sleeping, gardening in my dad's precious plants, licking and biting human fingers and toes passionately." #cloudtheangelkitten #littledemon #cloud #britishshorthair #kitten #bluepoint #100procentjacqueline https://www.instagram.com/p/CCmQQOsn84X/?igshid=se1v3sdoc6xl

She's mad. Jacq closed off the balcony fence (for more privacy and less wind). Now B can't see and bark at the screaming kids in the community garden. #notfunnyjacq #iwanttosee #boratherottweiler #rottweilers https://www.instagram.com/p/CClal8QnzAX/?igshid=z2so75cc3zgc

With Bora's arthritis and Jacq's sprained ankle sabotaging long walks, we did manage to have a "long" walk in the neighborhood. Meaning we walked from bench to bench and had a coffee break at our favorite cafe @cafesportpark The sniffing, the p-mail, all the attention, pats and cookies resulted in this face. #missionaccomplished Keeping Bora content and balanced at age 12,5 is a bit of a challenge sometimes because I have zero experience with senior dogs. I tend to either ask too much or too little, I'd say. But if she gives me this bright face and content snores and dreams afterwards, I feel I'm doing right by her. But if anyone could give me tips on how to keep Bora's mind busy, without having to take her out too often or too far, would be highly appreciated. I can let her do anything for treats but the catch is ofcourse that she can't eat as much as she used to. (Gaining weight is the last she should do with arthritis.)
