Why did I shower and do my hair if Mother Nature had that covered?

Rainy days...

It is a hideously rainy day here in NYC! I'm glad to be in the office on days like this, of course being under the covers with reruns of The Nanny wouldn't hurt either!

I FINALLY got my self to ReDress this weekend! It is AMAZING. If you aren't familiar with this shop, it is a vintage clothing shop dedicated completely to size 14+. The selection is awesome, the staff is friendly and will give fashion advice, and the prices are not inflated beyond belief! They are also a consignment shop so I took a few things I didn't wear anymore, sold them to them, and walked out with $20 to spend in the store! I can't believe no one had thought of this before! I walked out with a dark green pencil skirt (which I plan to wear tomorrow a-la Mad Men) and a sexy red dress with lace accents! Ill post pics of the skirt tomorrow but you should definitely check them out if you're ever in Brooklyn!

Getting back to the blog!


Fashion should be for ALL sizes! I know there is this "Curvy" trend in fashion right now which is GREAT for us plus sized girls! BUT why is it that even when it comes to plus models and plus rolemodels that the blondes have to be the thinnest? Is there some unwritten law somewhere that says curvy blondes cant be thick AND sexy? Well I beg to differ!

We had a vintage contest at my work recently and this is what I wore!

Ill try to post outfit pics more often:

Dress: On Clearance at Macy's a few years ago $60
Pearls: Avenue $5
Fur: Vintage Heirloom
