I’ve loved fashion, for a long time. I can remember being one of the first people in my middle school to ever wear skinny jeans. I had collections of fun screened tees, after that it scarves...

#SecondhandSeptember: Plus Size Shopping… in Secondhand (need I say more?)
Shopping of any kind as a plus size person can be a nightmare, but secondhand clothes shopping is an actual personal hell for many I think. It certainly has been for me.

So it’s Christmas, part 2

I think this has largely to do with the feeling I can’t quite shake, the feeling that I can’t be the only one experiencing this right now. I’m not particularly religious and while Christmas… Continue reading So it’s Christmas, part 2
#SecondhandSeptember: My Favorite Secondhand Resources ( in December)
