If you want to get all fired up, take a look at this post in the UK’s Mail Online by Petronella Wyatt. Bear in mind as well, that a UK size 12 is about two sizes smaller and that’s get my big girl panties in a bunch. They’ve closed the comments section, hmmm.

Forgotten, But Not Gone

I’ve not posted a new article here in a while, but why don’t you go read my friend’s blog, YummyWorld, as she tells a tale too familiar in Ex-squeeze-me.
Ever More on Renn

The Montreal Gazzette has an article on Crystal Renn, who yes! Has lost weight! But maybe not as much as Photoshop allows. And no plus-size models aren’t necessarily plus size. And being size 16 and firmly (or softly, really) in the middle of all of this yack and forth…good for lovely and healthy her.

The primary focus of this blog is the links. I’m working on them constantly to sort them out and make them as organized and useful as possible, packing a lot of information into a wee bit of space. The links are selective. If I see something I’d consider or want if budget weren’t an issue, [...]

I can’t say what direction this blog will eventually take. There’s lots of great fashion and style sartorial-blogs. There’s great magazine-style blogs and personal daily diary what-I-wore-blogs. There’s brilliantly funny fashion-oriented blogs, I’m talking about you, Daddy Likey. What my primary focus is on style ideas and active shopping links. I’m not a fashion plate [...]

As we get this new blog rolling, here’s a roundup of some interesting press. (Bear in mind that the “plus-size” models featured often wear about a Misses 8 to 10. So the reality is they fall a bit closer to our size and shape than runway models, but smaller than most plus-size clothing lines.) Some [...]
