Can't believe they'd retouch a shoulder. Crazy. I'd be MORE inclined to shop at a store where the models looked regular/average and more like me.

It is not like we can head to beach and air brush our bodies... In reality, we are dealt with what we are given.

Good for them, even if they are only running the campaign because "real" is trendy right now.
