Huge Torrid and Lane Bryant Haul
Ok so I hit up Torrid last Saturday and Lane Bryant in the beginning of the week and just wanted to give a quick run down of everything I bought. Also threw in some stuff I bought at Marshall’s. I really did very well in both of the stores in finding lots of nice clothing and accessories when I went.

Lane Bryant Lingerie Sephora Makeup and Home Decor
This was just a haul from a recent shopping trip I had at Sephora and Lane Bryant. I decided to also throw in some of the home decor stuff I have recently bought at Target and Pier One, two of my favorite stores for my home. I love that Lane Bryant has a separate Cacique boutique now for all of the BBW and Plus Size Lingerie that they have.

NAAFA Scholarship For Aspiring Plus Size Fashion Designers
Just a little while ago I had launched my twhirl account and was looking through my posts on twitter for the day. I saw a tweet about NAAFA giving away a $1000 scholarship for aspiring plus size fashion designers so there was no way that I could ignore that and not post about it. If you don’t know what NAAFA is, it stands for the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance. I think it is worthwhile to spread the news about something like this for my readers as it is directly related to what we talk about here. So if you are considering a career path in fashion design and are going to be focusing on the plus size side of things, you may want to consider applying for their scholarship award. You can do so at the following site NAAFA Plus Size Fashion Scholarship.

I recorded a video last night about my personal feelings about size acceptance and what it means to me at this point in my life. I have come to realize that force feeding anything down people’s throats who don’t want to accept us for who we are is perfectly fine for me. Having recently been reminded of how much I love being an individual who has the freedom to make my own personal choices, this got me to thinking about knowing when to pick and choose your battles wisely and carefully. BBW and BHM are always going to be here and there are always going to be people who don’t like us and feel that we should not have the right to dress how we want to dress or have the kind of lifestyles that we aspire to.
I say that it’s time we just carve out our own niche and create our own Big lifestyle t aspire to that has nothing to do with anything that isn’t positive and willing to celebrate every size. We are talented, beautiful and we have money to spend just like everyone else. There is no reason why we should not be able to achieve status like anyone else. We just need someone to create it for us so we can go out and grab our share of the pie. I will be waiting designers and I hope that you deliver and deliver big!
