If I had to choose one drugstore makeup brand…heck…ANY makeup brand to buy for the rest of my life, I would choose Maybelline. I feel like they have a solid face game with their Fit Me and their Instant Age Rewind Foundation & Concealers. Their mascaras are great! Falsies and Illegal Lengths are both so good. They have amazing eyeshadow palettes and espeicially their Color Tattoo eyeshadows. (Bad to the Bronze = ALL TIME FAVORITE.) Their ColorShow nail polish is reasonably priced and actually really good!

I had this idea in my head to do some plus size celebrity outfits of the day. So when I posted a poll to get some feedback about what you like and want to see more of from The Pretty Plus, I included Celeb Inspired Outfits to that list. As I had imagined, it was one of the highest chosen options. This week, I am bringing an Amber Riley inspired outfit.
