BBW who love their makeup
I know that there are tons of BBW girls on myspace and lots of the BBW models that you see online these days are all really big into high end makeup products. I have to admit, I am no exception to the rule. There are so many girls who really do such pretty stuff with their makeup and I wanted to learn. One of my friends told me about a girl on facebook called Lauren and she has a YouTube Channel under Panacea81 and she’s got loads of tutorials on how to apply all of these flashy exciting makeup looks. So in any event, this fat girl right here (me) is learning how to do these fun looks. Some of them are really bold and bright and just pure fun and others are more wearable, everyday looks.
Here is a great piece that was done on her by the BBC that pretty much explains how her video tutorials took off. I think the best thing about Lauren is her personality, her talent, and her comfort in front of her camera.
Here is her most viewed video which was the inspired look for Leona Lewis’s UK version of Bleeding Love

Trendy Plus Size Tops
If you are looking for something dressy or even something casual but is still trendy, hip, and fun, then you need to check out this online store that I recently discovered called PlusSizeFix.com or BelleAvenue.com. They have some pretty cute stuff, all exclusively plus sizes. Their prices are excellent too. Most of their plus size tops sell from about $23.99 to $29.99, very affordable.

Plus Size Discounts at Fashion Bug
I seriously think that Fashion Bug has put their entire store on sale. I ventured over to their store today because I was feeling bored and I got a pretty good haul for not a lot of money. I really had no specific intentions of going there today but I figured if something caught my eye then I would have to treat myself. I couldn’t believe that everything in the store was on sale. I saw some cute tops today but what really caught my eye was the bras. If I didn’t splurge on lingerie these are the adorable tops I would have bought.
Yes, they are a little bit embellished but it’s really cute the way it’s done. It almost looks like it was done with crystals and the the graphic, tattoo style is very hot right now. I was chatting with the manager of Fashion Bug while she was ringing my clothes up and she told me that they are going to be focusing solely on their plus size market now. It sucks for the juniors because they really did have some cute stuff in their juniors department but, I think they have recognized just how big their demand is in the plus size fashion arena.
There is not a woman I know that does not love shopping at Fashion Bug, thin or BBW. They just love the deals you can get on some really cute fashion. So yea, speaking of the deals… I got 4 extreme push-up bras today because they were having buy two, get two bras free. There is also a special of buy three, get three free on their panties. What is really great about this is they had even reduced a lot of their bra collection to 50% off which put some of their pricier bras down to about $10 a piece and that whole buy two, get two sale still applies to that! How much does that rock??
I noticed that they had some really pretty, lacy bra styles with matching panties for a change. Usually you rarely see matching plus size bra/panties sets in Fashion Bug but today was really a pleasant surprise for me. Ooooh… and SUPER CUTE ruffly cheeky panties, and fierce looking hipsters too!
When I say the whole store is on sale, lol I mean the whole store of all their great plus size fashions so make sure you grab up some of these hot deals.

Plus Size updated 80′s style
Lots of plus size women these days love to show off their curves. We are no longer afraid of putting our big bodies on display and simply not content with hiding behind baggy clothing that hides all the bumps. Back in the eighties, they did not have funky and cool shirts like this in plus sizes so now when I see cute tshirts like this one, I can’t help but go gaga over it.
I love the whole eighties kickback that is going on right now and nothing would complete that look than a pair of skinny jeans and some amazing pumps. Yes skinny jeans can look good on plus size legs if you dress them up with a nice shoe and a cute, funky top.
