How to Wear Plaid | 5 Chic Fall Essentials
Plaid has always made me feel stylish. From grunge era flannel shirts to iconic school uniforms, plaid never goes out of style so I consider it a classic print. I’m confident that if I see a photo of myself in plaid from any era, I’ll still consider it a cute look.
Five Beauty Products I Love: October Empties
Do you ever notice that you have random jars of unused beauty products around your bathroom?
If a jar is sitting in my bathroom for months and I’ve only used it once or twice, chances are I didn’t love it but I feel bad about being wasteful so it just sits on my shelves.
I recently realized that a great way for me to figure out which products I truly love is to look at the containers that are empty!
This month I’m sharing five products that I’ve used all the way to the end. I also made a video review on my instagram - you can watch that video here!
My Strapless Bra & Shapewear Guide
I went from a size 28 to 18 and now my tummy rolls and back fat are a bit... um... UNRULY.
I keep my confidence up with foundation garments...
Some might ask if foundation garments are "body positive". That's a decision you have to make for yourself.
Walking into a meeting feeling self conscious about my back fat pulls my focus away from work. If sliding on some Shapewear keeps my mind on building a better future for plus size women, as I build theCURVYcon then it’s a body positive decision for me.
Here is my Guide to Flawless Shapewear & Strapless Bras:
From my Corporate Job to THIS
Five years ago, I had a corporate job... today I'm a model and ambassador for LOFT!
I can’t believe I’m saying “I’m a model” because I never ever saw myself as a model.
I never thought I was good enough (or pretty enough) to be a model.
Instead of dreaming of becoming a model, I dreamed about building my self confidence. As my confidence has grown over the past 10 years, opportunities that I couldn’t have dreamed of (like modeling) are coming my way.
This is very exciting to me because I now know that if it can happen for me, it can happen for anyone… including you.
Don't quit your daydream, doll!
How to Throw a Last Minute BBQ (in 1 Hour or Less!)
As co-founder of theCURVYcon, my dreams are coming true, which also means that my work life is a lot more demanding than it used to be. This is a beautiful thing, but I don't get to spend as much time just hanging out as I used to. I'm noticing that people in my life are much more appreciative of time spent together, than they are a perfect meal made from scratch. So, I do the best I can and give myself grace so that I "don't make perfect the enemy of good" -Voltaire
Here's How to Throw a BBQ in 1 hour or less:
