I have a confession…
For the last year I’ve owned only a select few bras! Maybe you can relate. It is difficult to come by a bra that is perfect in every which way. So when I found that perfect bra, but couldn’t find it again anywhere in town- I freaked! And then I called to the magic of the internet.

 I came across a similar style, but as we all know bras are better fitted in the store. Months later my friend Stacee dragged me into Lane Bryant and that’s where the search finally ended! I’m now the brand new owner and advocate of Lane Bryant’s “Cushion Comfort Plunge Bra.” I’ve never fallen in love with a tangible item, but trust me- this is a bra you must try out!

The plunge bra is also available in a convertible style. Perfect for an easy transition into strapless comfort.

And of course, I’m always in the mood for sharing the savings. Click-click those Lane Bryant coupons here!

Enjoy, and have a wonderful weekend.

So a few months back my father had to undergo open heart surgery. (He has a really cool scar!) It changed the lives of our entire family. Eating healthy and exercising has become our new lifestyle. I, for one, began to value my health as means for internal success rather than only focusing on the external expectations I had of my body.

I personally took up fast walking, which turned into running (for the first time in my life!) and today I revved it up with kickboxing classes. It’s been rough, but I’ve never felt more accomplished than when I realized my endurance has increased ten fold. I haven’t lost a single pound, but I know that I am caring for my heart now….not my pant size. And let me tell you- that is the best feeling!

Today I thought- being curvy is something to be proud of, but how can us larger gals help each other be healthy at the same time? We need to stay fit & healthy so that we can be around for ourselves to enjoy, but also our family! I’ll tell you, I don’t ever want another to have to endure the pain & fear that I did when my father was laying in that hospital bed with a breathing tube down his esophagus. So many do though, and especially with heart disease at an all time high.

Today I came across “Curvy Goddess Lounge.” A community of exercises and tips specifically for plus size women. And of course, I pulled a few of my favorite fashions for hittin’ the mat. To top it off….huge savings for my favorite ladies! Check out the coupon below…

I call these the “keepin’ it under wraps” tank. (Avenue Plus)

(best pants ever- Avenue Plus)

And the Avenue coupon for some awesome plus size clothing!

Lots of love

I have a small, kind of funky shaped head, but I love hats! And big, floppy hats are that cherry a top your outfit this season!

Vogue Curvy from Vogue Italia has been providing me with ‘hatspirations’ all day…

So I finally got the courage to whip out my buy one, get one free deal from Lane Bryant and go hat shopping at my one of my favorite plus size stores!

A shimmering flop from Lane Bryant and super deal from Payless Shoes (I know!! who would have thought?!)

Have a wonderful Wednesday, ladies!

When I was 10, I accidentally gave this boy in my class a “Be My Valentine?” card. You know, the little cardboard cutout type with 28 to a box and they cycle through the same 5 sayings? Apparently this lone card snuck its way into the pile. In 5th grade fashion, his peers let out embarassing ‘ooous’ and ‘ahhhs.’ I sunk 10 years back, wishing to disappear all together.

…And that’s when I stopped recognizing Valentine’s Day. ;]

Whether you’re single, taken, or all sorts of confused- Valentine’s Day need not be a stressor. Nowadays it’s a retail holiday built around the consumer, so take advantage of these plus size clearance sales!

Torrid is now an online world of plus size bustiers, chemise, and sensual babydolls in their classic color combinations. And all of their plus size lingerie is Buy One, Get One 50% off! Here’s my favorite new arrival…

You definitely do not need a relationship to feel sexy. I usually slip into bed wearing a silk nighty and wake up feeling more confident than ever. Most women do need a good bra to get us through the busy day though. Right now One Stop Plus is having their annual 75% off full figured bra sale!

Keep an eye up! I’ll be bringing you the best plus size fashion sales each week. Especially as it gets closer to that infamous holiday.

It’s a new year! Which means I’m dreaming and scheming up big plans for the year. Ones that involve polished plus size business wear for the someday board meetings. Until then- it’s interviews! I realized I’d be lucky to pull off one career worthy outfit with this wardrobe…

Do you work in an office? Or maybe you just have a clean cut job that requires you always look your best? It can be difficult to maintain a variety of professional looks without sacrificing most of your paycheck. Go with the basics!

White collared tops- stock up on these babies! They look crisp and you can mix & match with many other pieces in your wardrobe.

I love blazers! They give us plus size ladies toned shoulders, and an evenly bold look. These are fun to play around with, so try different patterns and textures.

Pencil skirts! To die for. Talk about accentuating your curvy hips. These will definitely do the trick. Slip out of your blazer and into a silk top with this skirt, and you’re ready for a night out after work!

You can  never have enough comfortable pumps. And I mean that! Make comfort your priority, or everyone around you will suffer at the end of a long work day. My personal favorite right now are booties and shooties. Wear them under slacks and then slip into a lace dress Friday night. Easy as that!

Good luck ladies! Don’t forget those plus size business wear coupons. 2012 is a year of savings!

Miss Piggy storms the world of fashion in the latest Muppets Movie as the stylish plus size editor for VOGUE Magazine. Is this just another tale of the puppets, or a foreseeable future for our own kind? Hm…

A gal can always dream! Until then, I’ll just have to use VOGUE for a little high fashion inspiration. Just in time to pick up plus size pieces at an exceptional price.

Lane Bryant has their entire plus size collection 50% off!!! All of a sudden making this mod coat much more appealing. :]

Every winter wardrobe needs a bootie!

I’ll be enjoying my “Black Friday” indoors, with hot chocolate and plus size sales online. I hope you’ll join me!

That’s exactly what Adele is. Last time we featured Adele’s shots from her VOGUE cover, the magazine had chopped her beautiful body out of the story. ::shakes finger:: 

I was ecstatic to see Adele on the cover of Cosmopolitan’s December 2011 issue! And it wasn’t just her head this time…

Adele is making this cover sizzle! We love her dress especially, but I for one wouldn’t get close to a Dolce & Gabbana rack. So I found another sexy version of this dress–at a killer price!

Use this coupon for any of Torrid’s plus size clothing and take even more off their holiday sales!

Happy finds!

xoxo

Remember the last winter style blog? I was whining about how Winter turns me into a Yeti…

Even though I yearn for 24-hour snowveralls, I can’t help but love the cozyness of plus size winter wear. With the infamous Black Friday creeping towards us, that means mega sales from the best plus size clothing stores!

I’m here to help you weed out the “do’s” from the “don’ts” when you tumble through those sales.

A fitted wool coat is the best way to show off your curves this season. Combine that with a military flare, and you’ll be sporting one of this season’s hottest plus size styles!

DON’T: I don’t care how much you loved 1996, marshmallow coats must stay away from fingertips!

Speaking of fingertips. Finger-less gloves are functional and sometimes funky enough to be an official fashion accessory. Still keeping you warm when it’s most important!

DON’T: Step out with nothing covering the lady legs. Even if you think they’re your best asset. You’ll just look insane when it’s 20 degrees outside and you’re half dressed. Get some cute tights!

Snug wide-calf boots are a must this Winter! Great way to accentuate the shape of your calves while protecting them from chihuahuas. DON’T: Wear your yap-yap. Fur boots are a no-no for your feet.

Alright, get those shoes-a-shufflin’

Ok…not so little, but still very sexy! You can’t get away with little unless you’re planted in Los Angeles through these holidays. Where even one layer might be overbearing when Winter throws an 80 degree day your way.

For the rest of us…first things first. It’s holiday cocktail time! Ahem, I mean, cocktail dress time. Then we can worry about accessorizing your cute new plus size dress with jewelry, scarves, and a cocktail. :]

I’m a bit of a “cheap skate.” Thanks to these killer plus size coupons to OneStopPlus.com, I’m 35% richer!

I’m even more excited to announce our friendship with plus size favorite Jessica London. Where plus size steps it up a notch!

Enjoy your holiday dress shopping, ladies!

Pumpkins, leaves, yams… a spray tan gone bad! Burnt orange is one of Fall’s biggest trends. Just so happens to also be one of my favorite colors! Now this can feel like risky business when we’re talking fashion, but it’s really quite easy.

I’ll admit that at first, orange was no friend to my wardrobe. We’d admire each other from afar, but it took a little leap before I was comfortable tacking burnt orange pieces to my style.

The best way to make the most of this plus size trend is one piece at a time. I started with accessories. Like an orange purse!

Once you get cozy with this warm hue, try adding a one-piece-pop of color in with your neutrals. This will really brighten up that smile, and if you remember from my last post on color psychology in plus size fashion. Orange is part of a family of warm colors that send your motivation flying!

Like this burnt orange top as much as I do? One Stop Plus is the place for plus size Fall fashion.

Hope you’re enjoying Fall!
