Star in a Bra Australia top twenty: Katherine Reynolds
Written by Cheryl on Aug 7, 2012It’s always sad when we get to the end of the day’s interviews, and what a day it has been! We really, really, REALLY can’t pick just three of these gorgeous girls… help!
Here to help us make our decisions is Katherine Reynolds.
Could you tell us a bit more about you?
I’m a girl who likes a little mischief, loves a lot of love, laughs at pretty much everything (sometimes at really inappropriate times), loses all willpower on gooey brownies, raises my half-full glass with a whole-hearted cheer, is someone’s reason to smile – and you are mine!
My Mum described me as: “When you were born you were blue and looked like a Shar Pei dog – far too much skin.” (OMG, MUM!) “I loved you darling, but lets say you’ve blossomed.”
My Dad described me as: “Oh, you’re like Cameron Diaz when she falls over all the time.” (Thanks Pops!)
My best friend described me as: “Passionate, loyal, a bit chaotic, thoughtful, makes a mean roast dinner.” (Much better, thank you Lexy!)
I’m an event producer by day (and often by night!) but in ‘my time’ I’m a big ambassador for loving life. I believe in filling each moment with memories and pushing yourself out of your comfort zone. This kind of lifestyle means I’m often seen dashing from one place to the next, and what comes with me every time? My body (and great supporting undies!) This competition is the THANK YOU it deserves.
No, THANK YOU for entering and helping make this competition what it is! Why did you enter the competition?
I have a confession: turning 30 was a bit scary. There may have even been tears. I wondered what I should be doing and where should I be. Fortunately my family made me this video to celebrate being fab at 30:
So then I decide that I was being completely irrational and set myself challenges. 30, to be exact. Yep, 30 challenges to complete while I’m 30!
One of them is to love myself on the inside and out: I want to shout to the whole world that we only have one body, let’s show it the same love we give to our best friend, after all it’s the one thing that sticks by you through it all.
Being curvy hasn’t held me back, in fact I love my body for what it’s helped me to achieve. Every part of my body could tell a story, and with each story comes a great pair of undies: From sports bras to period pants, from comfy day-wear to mischievous date-nights – having correctly fitting undies will get you further than you think!
You can achieve whatever your little heart wants to – reach for the stars… My stars are the Curvy Kate ones.
‘With each story comes a great pair of undies’ – absolute genius! Last but not least, it’s the question that everyone dreads… Why do you think people should vote for you?
We’re not competing against each other, we’re all real women here to fly the curvy flag, feel good about our figures and help boost what Curvy Kate stands for – to continue to have real people representing a great brand. To enter in the first place is such an achievement – high five ladies!
Sure, I’ve got body hang-ups – we all have – but I try not to let that get in the way. My thighs like to say hi to each other, I lie flat on my bed with a coat hanger down my jeans desperate for them to be pulled over the last bit of wobble, and yes, I can touch my nose with my tongue: No-one is perfect! What makes a person healthy, happy and “normal” is their ability to laugh at themselves, laugh with each other and laugh out loud, even when no-one is watching.
Now, I’m not watching… click “VOTE KATHERINE” and have a little giggle at the moment we just shared at letting our coat-hanger-down-our-jeans secret out of the bag!
Do you think Katherine deserves your vote? You have three votes to use, and to cast your vote visit the Star In A Bra website or go to application on the Curvy Kate Australia Facebook page.
