My favorite season of all is HERE! One way I love adding dimension to my fall/winter outfits is by throwing on a cute pair of booties or tall boots. I don’t always need wide calf, so this round-up includes mostly wide calf but also a few non wide brands & styles I’ve tried that worked for me. Boots can be SO hard - especially if you’re like me. I need COMFORT, and I need them to not look ridiculous. Ha!
THREE THINGS I NEED IN A BOOT:

Whether you’re a first time mom, a mom of multiples, or just shopping for a baby gift… let’s face it. Narrowing down what you actually want and need can be difficult. Today I’m partnering with Walmart to round up all of my favorite baby items for their Best of Baby month! Most of these things I’ve used and love, and if we haven’t used it… I wish I had!

It’s comfortable and you don’t have to think twice about it — that’s MY kinda everyday grab and go bra, honestly. I am loving this little bra review adventure I’ve been on for a few months! So when Bare Necessities reached out to me, of course I said yes… bras are SO hard, especially when you have had babies or gone through extreme weight loss or weight gain.

I avoided pool parties as early as middle school. I would spend the evenings secretly doing workout videos in my bedroom.
Before I go into detail about this ethically made plus size designer… let’s chat real quick about my Day 4 of fashion week. It was my last full day in NYC. That morning was “the morning” when I experienced all of this (click to read post), so for the afternoon I went back to the hotel and chilled for a little while. Then I pulled myself together, and made my way to Spring Studios to see two fashion shows. The first one was Chiara Boni la Petite Robe which was beautiful, but I was disheartened that they didn’t have any plus size representation on the runway (considering they do carry it, I was surprised).

Read MoreHey friends! Tonight I’m showing you how to take your white jeans from summer and wear them in the Fall. I am a big fan of wearing white ALL year! Why not? It can be so chic!
First things first, these are my favorite jeans to date and I just found them ON SALE FOR $83. I have tried a million and one pairs of white denim. These fit my curves and make me feel amazing. They normally retail for around $140. Sometimes in Good American I size up to a 20, but in these I take a size 18.
Read MoreAnthropologie sponsored my trip to The CurvyCon this year, and I was more than honored to attend on their behalf. The CurvyCon was really amazing… since I was floating back and forth from NYFW events to CurvyCon events I noticed a stark difference.
If you read my post from yesterday, I talk about the fatphobic vibes that surrounded NYFW. It’s easy to feel defeated in those situations, but I gathered all of my video footage from the CurvyCon and I want you to watch it.

Before you see the word “fatphobia” and roll your eyes… don’t. Hear me out.
A year and a half ago, one of my readers responded to my Instagram story where I mentioned I hated the word FAT… and she straight up told me I was fatphobic. In the moment, I got defensive. I swiftly explained to her that the word FAT was extremely hurtful to me and caused me a lot of pain. And that I shouldn’t have to hear that word if I don’t want to.

Thursday morning, I started off my day with a fun meeting at Marc Fisher - one of my favorite shoe brands. I am SO excited to show you a little bit of what is coming out this Fall... it’s so exciting and I’m obsessed with all of the patterns they are releasing in shoe form!

Last night, I got the honor of attending Eloquii’s fall fashion preview party and it was SO much fun (be sure to check out my instagram stories)… literally almost every plus size fashion blogger was there and it was so much fun to meet everyone in real life!

I know I've shared some of this in the past and some of you may think Im being dramatic, but.... these jeans seriously changed my life.
I had worked really hard to become a "fit" version of me before getting pregnant.
Read MoreIf you’re new around here, you may not know that Anthropologie extended their sizing to include plus sizes last Spring. I was very impressed with my first fitting room experience (read about that here or watch it here). While I was there trying amazing clothing on that actually fit (tears!!) - one of the corporate team members was there and mentioned that the president of Anthropologie was actually behind APlus 100%.

Real talk: I struggle when I hear people say that breastfeeding is scientifically the best. Maybe it’s true, but it still hurts to hear sometimes. I wasn’t even given the chance with Emmie (she was tube fed for medical reasons), and with Pj... I was only able to for about a month. I have friends who have breastfed exclusively and I think it’s absolutely amazing that they’re able to do that.

Read MoreThis is a touchy subject, I’m well aware. But a couple of weeks ago, after the release of the WW children’s app (which I strongly disagree with) - I asked you all on Instagram to tell me your diet culture stories.
Let me make this clear: This isn’t about whether or not it’s okay to lose weight. It’s about how you’re doing it, and if that is in a healthy way or in a, well … lack of a better description, disordered eating type of way.
Read MoreI recently got a message asking why everyone who’s above a size 14 feels the need to proclaim their body confidence to the world. “Why can’t you just live your life without talking about it all the time, like smaller women?”
Here’s why. 👇🏼
