"I was driving back from my parents house and I was driving too fast," Kit explained. "I was being a bit naughty. I was going over the speed limit. And I feel the sirens go off behind me. And this Policeman comes up and pulls me over. And I, a bit sheepishly said, ‘I’m really sorry, I wasn’t looking at the clock.'"

This Clothing Designer Makes Nude Dancewear For Every Skin Tone

Because peach is not nude for ~everyone~.

Meet Whitney Bracey, a 29-year-old clothing designer based in Dallas, Texas.

Meet Whitney Bracey, a 29-year-old clothing designer based in Dallas, Texas.

Bracey has been designing clothes since she was six-years-old when she would cut up her socks to make outfits for her Barbie dolls. "One day, my mom caught me — she was mad," Bracey told BuzzFeed. "But then she realized that this was something I could use, so when I was seven-years-old, she taught me how to use a sewing machine."

After that, Bracey was hooked. She made clothes for herself and her friends throughout high school and college. And while attending Texas Woman's University in Denton for fashion design, she started making swimsuits for a friend's line of beauty-pageant-specific swimwear.

In March of 2015, Bracey launched Mahogany Blues, a dance apparel company that makes nude apparel for dancers of color.

In March of 2015, Bracey launched Mahogany Blues, a dance apparel company that makes nude apparel for dancers of color.

Bracey, who was still making swimwear, got the idea after her friend and founder of Brown Girls Do Ballet, TaKiyah Wallace, tipped her off that there were no nudes for people of color in the dance industry.

"Most dancers of color have to dye their leotards a few times to get the right color," she said.

"Most dancers of color have to dye their leotards a few times to get the right color," she said.

Bracey, who currently makes all of the leotards by hand, will start using a factory for mass production as demand for her dancewear has grown.

"To come up with our nudes, I printed out a color card and tried to match the skin tones of friends, coworkers, and strangers," she said.

"To come up with our nudes, I printed out a color card and tried to match the skin tones of friends, coworkers, and strangers," she said.

The line currently features four nudes. By the end of next year, Bracey plans to introduce two more colors (one she describes as "more of a cinnamon" and the other will be a lighter option). Another step in the works: Nude bra tops and boy shorts for girls and briefs for boys. "These will be great for gymnasts," she said.

6 Body-Positive Latino Illustrators Who See The Beauty In Curves

Six Latino artists tell BuzzFeed Español what inspires them, and what goes into the process of creating plus-sized art.

There have been periods in art history where female beauty was represented in all its forms. Over time, slim women were portrayed more and more frequently in pictures, drawings and photography.

There have been periods in art history where female beauty was represented in all its forms. Over time, slim women were portrayed more and more frequently in pictures, drawings and photography.

But that doesn't mean that curvy girls have ceased to exist, or that they're any less beautiful now than they were in the 16th century. There are dozens of illustrators around the world who create, promote and distribute art dedicated to figures of all shapes and sizes.

In honor to their work, we introduce them to you...

Keishla Rodriguez (Munrou)

Country: Puerto Rico

Munrou is 26 years old and she's a freelance artist and illustrator. She began drawing plus-sized girls 3 years ago. "My motivation was the lack of representation. I didn't want to continue the stigma that has been around for so long about what an ideal body should look like. I wanted to contribute my grain of salt to put forward a message of love and acceptance towards our bodies."

Instagram: @munbbi / Via instagram.com

Munrou got started on Tumblr, were she received hundreds of messages of support and appreciation. "Many girls wrote to me saying that they felt happy to see their bodies reflected in my pieces, and that gave them a boost of confidence", she said.

Instagram: @munbbi / Via instagram.com

Of course, Munrou has also received criticism for her work, including accusations that she's "promoting obesity".

"I have encountered criticism from people who believe I glorify obesity and I've had to explain why my work does not promote a bad lifestyle, but rather I bring a message of love and acceptance towards our bodies, and that regardless of your size, you have to carry your body with pride," adds Munrou.

This Tiny Bat Loves To Cuddle And It's Almost Too Much

It also makes little baby squeaks when it gets plenty of petting! (!!!)

This is Jeddah, a juvenile bat who absolutely adores cuddling up and getting some primo scratching time in.

Like all of us, Jeddah is a fan of the finer things in life: having someone else scratch your head.

Like all of us, Jeddah is a fan of the finer things in life: having someone else scratch your head.

Jeddah suffered some injuries early in life and can't be released into the wild as a result, which is why he's in the loving hands of a vaccinated and licensed bat carer.

And when he gets a VIP head scratch, he shows his appreciation with a big tip*. (*Loads of mind-blowingly cute squeaks.)

21 Things People Get Wrong About Me Because Of The Way I Look

Never judge a book by its cover.

"That because I'm skinny I don't work out!"

"That because I'm skinny I don't work out!"

"Staying active and fit is actually something I take seriously. I walk, bike, spin, row, etc. I've been skinny my whole life (I think it's because of a fast metabolism), so when people look at me and assume that I must not work out it can be a little annoying/frustrating. While lifting weights isn't a priority, staying fit is something that's important to me. I don't think that muscles define how active or in shape you are and sometimes it's frustrating that that's the norm."

"I'm an immigrant. No, you asshole, I was born here."

"I'm an immigrant. No, you asshole, I was born here."

"I went to a small college in upstate NY and this happened a lot. Classmates, friends of friends or people at the bar would ask me, 'Where are you from?' I'd say 'Brooklyn,' and unsatisfied with my answer, they'd ask where I grew up. I'd say 'Brooklyn' and still unsatisfied, they'd ask, "Where are your parents from?" I'd say they were born in China and finally satisfied that I was tied to an immigrant and checked off a box in their head, they didn't ask any more questions.

This was extremely frustrating. It's silly that someone would think they know your entire life story just by looking at you. Sometimes I would mess around with people. I'd say my parents were born here and they would look disappointed. Oh well, not sorry to have you check yourself."

"I'm high-maintenance because I wear a lot of makeup. (Fuck you I'm covering up old acne scars!)"

"I'm high-maintenance because I wear a lot of makeup. (Fuck you I'm covering up old acne scars!)"

"I can't tell you how many people think women who wear a lot of makeup are high maintenance, or even trashy. It's easy just to assume, but lots of us who wear makeup have other reasons like self-care, self-expression, or in my case, to cover up scars! Also whenever guys say 'I prefer women who wear less makeup' I'm just like, 'first of all, did I ask you? And second of all, I'm not wearing this for you, I'm wearing this for me!'"

"Because of my booty, people assume I want to be objectified."

"Because of my booty, people assume I want to be objectified."

"Walking around with a ~curvaceous~ bod can feel like a struggle because men (and it is always men) think my body is something they have a right to comment about. They do not. The worst is when a man decides to be very specific — like the day I took this picture when some guy said 'I’d eat that booty.'

If that isn’t enough, they become angry if I ignore them, or look angry! The absurdity of it puts me in a rage, I swear. Recently, some guy I politely ignored had the gall to say that *I* should wear something different if I didn’t want to be talked to. No, homie, just no. I’m 10,000% over it. My body is mine."

One-Pot Teriyaki Chicken & Vegetables

Here's the recipe:

One-Pot Teriyaki Chicken and Rice, by Tasty
Servings: 4

INGREDIENTS:
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 chicken breasts, sliced
Salt and pepper to taste
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ginger
2 cups + 1/4 cup water
1 cup white rice, rinsed
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1/4 cup honey
2-3 tablespoons Sriracha
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 cup broccoli

1/2 red bell pepper
Scallions for garnish (optional)

PREPARATION:
Heat olive oil in a large pot on medium heat, then add chicken, season with salt and pepper, and sauté for 8 minutes. Add garlic and ginger, sauté for 2 minutes until fragrant, then add 2 cups of water and the rice, and stir. Cover the pot and bring water to a boil.

Uncover, stir, then reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Then add soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, and Sriracha. Stir to combine.
