    Hi Kristine, i love your style, it’s stunning, avant garde i tell you. The coolest thing about your blog is that you provide links to which we can refer to for outfit finds. My only issue is that some of these stores don’t cater to South Africa (ZAR) .Do you perhaps know of CITY Chic , it’s an Australian Plus Size brand and their clothes are out of this world, totally ideal for trendy girls like ourselves. Girl , you’re the bom .dot.com!!!!

    Just stumbled across your blog… Where have you been all my life??? I love your style! You make plus size look freakin HAWTT! I just found you on IG as well. Can’t wait to go through all your posts. To be honest I am so inspired to dress my wardrobe up from your posts. I have always felt a little embarrassed about my size 18/20; especially when trying to dress up in the “newest style trends” But you make it look so easy. Thank you!

    Love your blog! Thank you for providing great style inspirations šŸ™‚ I was wondering what your secret is to walking in high heels. As a size 16-18 plus size woman I love high heels but have troubles walking in heels over 3 inches. Especially the dress sandals that have an ankle strap, it rubs at the back of my ankle….. I would very much appreciate it if you could provide any advice on wearing high heels??? Thanks in advance and cheers!

      Thanks so much Alexandra! I really appreciate your message. Unfortunately I don’t have much of a secret. I just try to find the most ā€œcomfortableā€ heels for me but they hurt my feet after a while too. I just deal lol. Gel inserts are your best friend

      Hi Alexandra, just want to share the trick, which helps me a lot. I always buy heels half size bigger and use gel inserts, just as Kristine mentioned in her comment. This way heels feel much more comfortable, hope it will help.

I’m really starting to love my curves more and more everyday. If you don’t mind me asking where purchase your body shapers and bras? I’m a 44DDD, and it’s kind of finding the right fit for my body. My measurements are 44-40-46

    Hi Kristine

    I really love how you always look so good effortlessly. I love your style and Im now trying out new styles of dressing up. To be honest I have never been into fashion and caring how I look, my younger sisters however are obsessed with fashion. So, Ive been scrolling on instagram, and i really like your style and wanna adapt it. Tell me, do these companies ship to South Africa as I live there?

    Anyway, keep doing what you do because you inspire me

    I’m Asian girl weight about 74kg. I used to be smaller but even then i don’t really care about how I dress or look. (more like I’m fashion blind. cuz every time I try to dress up, I end up going over the top and I hate it. so I just stop.) it doesn’t help with my self confidence either.

    after three years plain old me. my younger sister stood up and knock some sense in me. she told me to check out plus size blogger to find inspiration. and I found this.

    I love your style. its simple yet.. brimming with beauty and elegant. It made me think that, if you can be that beautiful and confident, then I can too.
    thanks for sharing. šŸ˜‰

When you look in the mirror, do you like what you When you look in the mirror, do you like what you see? #ad Too many times, we are consumed with all of our perceived ā€œflawsā€ while looking in the mirror, that we fail to see the true essence of who we are. I’ve teamed up with @maurices to challenge you to be a little kinder. Their ā€œKind Is the New Coolā€ tee is a little reminder to do so. Self-care, self-love & self-assurance is the only way!
