    Spray Tanning Tips for the Plus Size Gal

    04/17/2014 /

    Both pictures include VERY minimal amounts of the SAME makeup. Both pictures were taken in the SAME spot, same lighting, same time 1 day apart. I got lash extensions too, more to come on that soon! I had my first spray tan experience yesterday! I really wanted to see if I liked the color and whatnot for the wedding (in 30 days!) and for the summer in general since I totally burn and never turn a pretty bronze color. I did my fair share of research and am going to share my “wisdom” with you with regards to big girls getting spray-tanned! I found that I needed to prepare physically…

    English-Inspired Bridal Shower

    04/07/2014 /

    This weekend, my Maid of Honor and my “Sister of Honor” (which is a new term coined by me specifically for my big day) threw me a beautiful bridal shower. My closest ladies got together to enjoy time together to celebrate my pending nuptials. (We get married in 40 days, by the way!) My necklace is from Target, FYI! Micole (SOH) did this whole beautiful spread of food and all I can say is WOW. She really captured the essence of the type of party she knew I would like to have and executed it perfectly. The spread included 2 large cakes, some chicken salad sandwiches on croissants, fruits &…

    Curb Your Office Hunger

    01/13/2014 /

    I feel like when I don’t have snacks in my desk drawer at work, it could easily become the Hunger Games up in my office space. I could scour the whole place in search of a snack and hopefully take no one prisoner while I’m on the hunt. The secret to most of my success has become self-control in the office. I make sure to pack healthy foods, have them on hand at all times, and learn to say NO to a big box of donuts. (Which is super hard for me because donuts are my favorite.) Below is a list of 10 items to fill your snack drawer with…

    What Is Plus Size, Anyway?

    01/13/2014 /

    I can tell you what it’s not! It’s not a size 8! And you know what? I would KILL to be a size 12, so I don’t think that’s it either. If you define plus size by sizes in shopping, most clothing lines for plus sizes start at a 14/16. I would say that there are women in a size 12 that could be considered plus size as well, depending on their body shape and type. So WHY, if society already pre-determines plus sizes for us, does the fashion industry decide that anything smaller than a size 12/14 is plus size!? It’s not, and there are 2 major problems I…
