Afterglow AW14 17 Sundays
If you are out and about in the plus-size world then you will have seen the release yesterday of the new season range from 17 Sundays. Afterglow AW14. It’s hot, short version. I’m like a 17 Sundays brand whore, so I was all over that. I almost didn’t share it here given it’s been covered…

Plus-Size Swimming + Swimwear
I decided to write this post about a month ago. I’ve been finding my time in the pool the most refreshing and wonderful thing. I thought, heck I’m going to tell the folks that read the blog all about it. So here we are. Then an email landed in my inbox asking how I was…

How to have a direct conversation {Confident You}
I like direct conversations. Ones that don’t mess around, get to the point and if there’s a request to make it gets made sooner rather than later. This post occurred to me as a good idea after writing one of the emails for the daily subscribers of the Living the Sweet Life Daily. Telling someone…

Aussie Curves: Sequins
I used to have an aversion to sequins. I loved the look of them but hated the scratchiness. Annoying with a capital A. So I didn’t wear them. In fact I even sold many the sequin item that was given to me or purchased on a whim and inevitably discarded. This changed a little when…

Double Double Take with Target’s Bellecurve Range
Brought to you by Target. The addition of the Bellecurve range at Target has been a good thing as far as I am concerned. A REALLY good thing. MODA still wavers now and then for me {sorry, but they totally do} but Bellecurve is SO on point. When I went in with my vouchers to put…

Aussie Curves: Boho
Like most themes, it takes me a little moving around of things to make it work. I like to choose an outfit and then hang it up to wait for an occasion. This jumpsuit arrived in the mail and I wore it two days later. I’d planned necklaces and bangles and all sorts of things…

That feeling you get
There’s this feeling you get when you finish a great workout with people you enjoy spending time with and the afternoon is bathed in this delicious warm light. It’s pretty special. It’s sort of tingly exhaustion that takes over your whole body. And yesterday, after much laughing and exercising, I had that feeling. I think…

Passionfruit & Lemon Cake
This one is from an old New Idea that I tore out and kept. It’s advertised as a classic recipe and it totally is. Over the 12 months or so of use I’ve altered it a little and let’s just say it is fail-proof I figure it’s one of those things that you need up…
