My Valentine’s Day look. Dress from Torrid. Click here for details |
The month of February came so quickly I hardly remember everything I accomplished, but boy did I accomplish a lot. Most importantly, this little blog hit ONE MILLION PAGEVIEWS! Yes, after 7 years of blogging, hitting one million pageviews is a wonderful feat.
And it seems, it seems I’ve FINALLY caught my stride. I’ve given myself permission to be myself and be unapologetic. Each time I shoot a look, I’m more confident, more happy, and more aware. Aware that each image I present pushes the vision of plus-size women into the eyes of one more person.

Yes, plus-size women come in all shapes and sizes. This one, me, I’m 6 feet tall with more bottom than top. I love to play up my waist, neck and shoulders. But every photo session I fall more in love with other parts, parts I previously tried to hide: big butt, chunky arms, and fluffy knees. So, looking over these photos from the past month, I like myself and the way I look. I’m excited to continue the journey. It’s only March! I hope as I fall more in love with myself, you find a way to fall in love with yourself too. Let’s get to the looks.
My Valentine’s Day look was a big hit on instagram and tumblr. I think the ULTRA girly pink-on-pink look appealed to my readers. To tell the truth it’s one of my FAVORITE dresses in my closet. The Calvin Klein dress/vest wasn’t a social media fave, but it’s currently my favorite look for winter transition. I’ll definitely shoot this dress in the summer so you guys can see what it looks like as a dress. Lastly, the vintage fur vest wowed me and wowed you! Seriously, I just wanted to shoot an all black look, but when I was given this awesome piece, how could I say no?

So, these were my favorite looks from February. In the next couple of weeks I have some speaking engagements (I know, right?!) and . . . Nashville Fashion Week! I won’t have time to shoot a March lookbook, but I’ll have a ton of candid photos that will post to my instagram. So you should follow me over there.
