Bye Bye Boots Weather {She Wore What}

In Queensland, it’s bye-bye boots time. I’ve been stubbornly wearing two new pairs of boots that I picked up at the end of season sales because I WANT TO. No matter if the days are already reaching a sunny and warm 28 degrees. I especially wanted to get a wear or two {three would be…
The one where I forget to write a post until now…

Today has been a pretty fun day. I look forward to Mondays and the community of the Aussie Curves ladies. Made even better by how you guys have really rallied behind it and supported it. Then I go to my Weight Watchers meeting and come home ready and raring to go for another week. I…
Need a plus size one-piece swimsuit? I’ve got you covered.

Around here, we embrace the bikini body, especially for the fellow long torso friends. But as much love as I have for the bikini, tankini and all their ‘ini friends, sometimes I want something more.

This could be a VERY short post. A super short one, but well, you know me. Short version? I refuse to be AFRAID to wear a bikini; being afraid is for spiders or clowns or being murdered in your sleep, not someone seeing your stomach. It’s clothing, folks; it’s nothing to be afraid of. And…
Body Shame; We taught her that.

My story about body shame, confidence, and finding my way out is too familiar to need repeating. I was a young woman who wanted a body that was different from the one I had. So I starved and strived and exercised and counted and struggled. My body never did change that much. Why did I…
Wearing ankle boots with skirts and dresses

Last weekend, not the one just gone but the one before, I spent the majority of the weekend working at home or going out to eat. Well, other than the night I spent in the wilderness without phone reception, but THAT is another story. And I was pretty darn excited to get to wear my…
Change is as good as a holiday

Post One #innovativebeauty challenge – Voices of 2014 As part of the challenge, Garnier gave us a few sample products and a list of prompt ideas around the theme of #innovativebeauty.
