Strict beauty standards are so deeply entrenched in our society that we tend to forget that all bodies are beautiful.

No matter which size you fit in, it's sometimes hard to deal with our complexities, but since our bodies literally work for us, we better start loving them the way that they are.

This list presents you the 10 reasons you should start celebrating your lovely love handles.

1. You Own It, You Rock It
