  • Your medical aid never ruins your outfit ✨I wear the Sensura Mio bags from @coloplast.uk year-round and love the black colour as it sits well under clothes. Most of the time you can’t tell that it’s there unless you’re really looking!Top: New Look
Shorts: Secondhand
Clip: TKMaxxVD: A white woman with curly (wavy? Slightly confused in the heat) shoulder length brown hair and glasses. She is wearing a white square neck lacy type vintage inspired top and some daffodil print shorts. During the video she shows you her black stoma bag hiding under her clothes. At one point you can see the butterfly clip in the back of her hair. The text on the screen reads ‘This is your reminder that nobody can tell if you have a stoma bag or not. Your medical aid never ruins your outfit’.

  • Saw this trend and knew I had to join in - for anyone who’s ever said they can’t keep up with me! My life is full of ups and downs, but I try to maximise the ups as much as I can. ☀️I’m so blessed to have the bestest friends around me too - some of whom appear in this video and some to which I’m yet to get clips with - the memories that we have made together so far as my favourites ✨VD: The text on screen reads ‘POV: The stories of your chronically ill friend who loves 100 different lives’ and cutes between lots of dramatic changes from Imali out and about to in hospital, to at work, to with different friends and family.
