Losing weight has become the modern woman’s holy grail… everything will be better when we’re thin.
We’re obsessed with weight, we dislike our bodies, we worry about the food we eat, we feel guilty, we diet… Too many of us are locked into a war with our own bodies which we’ll never win, and which will never make us happy.
The Ministry of Thin takes a controversial, unflinching look at how the modern obsession with weight loss, youth, beauty and perfection got out of control. Emma Woolf, author of An Apple a Day, explores how we might all be able to stop hating and start liking our own bodies again. And she dares to ask: if losing weight is the answer, what is the question?

Super comfortable!

Some of the most comfortable shoes that I've ever worn/walked in! Super light on my feet. Nice casual looking and comfortable shoe for a reasonable price. I already brought 3 pair.

Great dressy sneaker to wear with business casual or jeans
Size: 11, Color: British Tan/Ivry
I got these for my husband to wear with jeans or business casual dress pants. They look sharp and professional and dress up jeans if you're going out. He says they fit comfortably and he can walk on them all day without his feet hurting. They are beautiful genuine leather so they don't get stinky. I got my husband's normal size and they fit to size.

Comfortable
Size: 9, Color: Black/Ivory
Most comfortable and roomy shoes I ever wore. Great for insoles. Looks nice too. The base of the shoe is a bit too thick but it’s fine.

Great Western Cowboy Vest for Costume Use
I bought the Men's Western Cowboy Vest with fringe as part of a Halloween costume, and it was perfect for what I needed! The style and details really added to the look and gave my costume an authentic vibe. At 6'3", I found it a little on the short side, but it still worked fine for my purposes.
Since I bought it just for a one-time wear, I can’t really comment on the quality or durability for regular use, but for a costume piece, it absolutely served its purpose. If you’re looking for a stylish, western-themed vest for a costume or occasional event, this is a solid, budget-friendly choice!
