Hello my kittens! I'm busy working on some fun outfits to embrace while in London for Plus Size Fashion Weekend, where I'm so honored to be hosting. A retailer I've talked about a few times here, SimplyBe, is actually the presenting sponsor of the LPSFW (#lpfsw) and I've been working on a secret covert opps CIA underground project with them. *laughing* I wore...
Let the Holiday Party season begin! My friend Brit invited me to her company party at the Vancouver Heathman Lodge and I was hard pressed to find an outfit that fit the Wild Wild West theme (????!) so I opted for just being me. Maybe the faux leather lapels on my blazer hint at wild west? LOL I snapped up this blazer online...
I used to be so turned off by the fur look. Looking back, I realize I'm just quite picky about the texture and color....well I'm that way about all my style picks. My friend Brit and I were out Christmas shopping this weekend and she was desperately trying to get me to say what I love about rings and which ones I'd love...I...
Time for Project Plus, a partnership with SWAK Designs! Contest is now closed. What I love most about my partnership with SWAK and Project Plus is the fact that they let me choose what the focus will be and what I want to give to my readers, which I so love them for that. When I was thinking about the holidays and the...
Shhhhhh, gonna tell you about a secret that me and my 4 million friends know about :). If you're instagram obsessed like me, then you get irritated too that you can't click links or really shop the great looks you find!!! You love the glasses, you say, hey....where can I get those glasses, and they give you the link, but you can't click...
Happy Monday loves! Had a great weekend with the hubby and kiddo partaking in the local holiday festivities. And, have been so completely spoiled with brands sending me clothes that I've officially BANNED any gift giving from my friends and family to me...well, unless it's in the form of dollars for me to save for the trip to London...if ONLY United Airways took...
The totally fab ladies at Torrid asked me to be a featured blogger this week for their Naughty & Nice promotion and part of my duties was to answer the question - are you naughty or nice? Ohh boyyyyy....hmmm. I couldn't decide, so I dolled myself up in what I consider my ultimate Naughty and Nice Torrid outfits and want you to tell...
What a week it's been! So many great projects and prospects and ultimately, feeling more confident in my choice to focus on my brand (blogging/skorch mag/speaking/etc) and less on my agency. I've worked from home for the last few years and have a good agency with clients that are like family, but my heart only sings (how corny I know that sounds) when...
So loving this outfit, can't even explain the awesome I felt wearing. SUPER. FUN. I've been dreaming of a fun plus size pleated maxi skirt since I was mesmerised by Youtheary Khmer at Full Figured Fashion Week (she was just on Ricki Lake too!) and later, even more, after I was asked to model for her! Check out my first commercial modeling debut! So...
Been doing some research on a book Mandy and I are working on, which has changed titles and scope about 12 times...but hey, that's all part of the creative process. And since that process includes being distracted by all things social media, while wasting researching on pinterest I saw this super cool graphic by La Redoute. Love this. Making me dream of traveling the...
So I had this crazy idea and emailed my two fav plus size fashion and beauty bloggers with said crazy idea, and they wrote back excited and heck yes! I asked them if they would partner with me for a fun holiday glam makeover contest, we three love helping our viewers and readers feel more confident and fabulous and I want you to...
Lately, I've been wrestling with being adventurous with my style and yet staying true to ME. It's so hard! I'm like a distracted 4 year old with puppies and butterflies pulling me every direction and I just want to play with everything! LOL So, when I was sent these leggings my heart sang a bit. They were so simply me, something that perfectly...
