#LoveYourLines...Women are flaunting their stretchies...Chrissy Teigen proudly shows off her stretch marks on Instagram.


Singer John Legend's super model wife, Chrissy shared an honest and retouched photo of her body. She shared a  photo of her thighs with stretch marks with the world, showing bruises she said came from “bumping into kitchen drawer handles”. She added that her stretch marks were also saying hi. Funny, but so real! And so many of her followers have shown their appreciation with almost 100K likes and comments. See them below...

- "Wow, this makes me feel so much better about my legs. I hate the stretch marks on my thighs. Thanks for keeping it real @ChrissyTeigen you are so gorgeous. I never would have guessed you have flaws like the rest of us gals. #GirlPower #StrongWoman"

- "Love this girl @ChrissyTeigen you boosted my confidence up up up!!! Thanks for being real".

- "So real, so incredibly awesome! LOVE THIS"




Chrissy Teigen is a beautiful supermodel who often graces the pages of high-profile magazines.
Often, these sorts of images are airbrushed and touched up in Photoshop but she decided to show her ''flaws''.
In this era of plastic surgery, air brushing and photo shopping it's refreshing to see a celeb remind us that it's not a crime for a little  ''imperfection'' called stretch marks.
She's keeping it real! Chrissy Teigen post is now  inspiring other women to love their lines
Women have been proudly sharing pictures of their stretch marks on Instagram, using the hashtag #LoveYourLines.

    I adore this #loveyourlines movement. My Q: Which magazine will be the first to do a completely unretouched issue, ads & all? I'd love that.

      The #LoveYourLines campaign is encouraging women to embrace and love their stretch marks. #GimmeMoLove instagram.com/p/1gRMjhI-oJ/

    4. I don't consider stretch marks as"imperfections".I've had mine just like hers since puberty I'm in my 30s and I wear bum shorts with no care in the world.
      I love her for sharing and making people feel more confident about themselves.
