Fat Positive Manatee!
I’ve recently stumbled across a new favourite Tumblr blog. Fat Positive Manatee. Totally in love. I figure my spirit animal would probably be a manatee or dugong. So combining a few of my favourite things, animals, and love of fat, is something right up my alley! Check it out HERE! But I’ve posted a couple of my favourites below! Pet Peeve – It really frustrates me when a person tells me I’m not fat. I have no problems being who I am, I know i’m fat. But when someone says to me “You’re not fat”, I just kind of give them a quizzical look and ask “Really?”. FAT IS NOT A BAD…

We deserve fashion!
I have to admit, over the last few years, plus size fashion has started taking steps in the right direction, but it’s still not as diverse or prominent as it deserves to be. When I stumbled across the below film clip, I was moved. This beautiful black and white silent film speak volumes. Showing the gorgeous plus size model Fluvia Lacerda embracing who she is & demanding that she deserves fashion. While I’m not a huge fan of ‘demanding’, the aim of this short is so true. No matter what size we are, be it 30, 22, 12 or 6, we deserve fashion. We deserve to dress HOW we want, in…

You don’t need to be thin to be…
There is a whole lot of negative assumptions when it comes to being fat, and quite honestly, i’m sick of it. Sure, a few things may be true, but every single person in the world is different, just because 2 people may be the same weight does not make them automatically have the same problems. It’s not just with fat people either, I have friends that are thin, who don’t gain wait & have some horrid accusations thrown at them. I sometimes wish that people would wise up & realise that no 2 people are a like & at the end of the day, we all have feelings! You don’t need to be…

I am fat!
Hi! My name’s Natalie, and I am FAT! Yes, I said it. I’m fat! It’s not a dirty word! Over the past few years, I’ve come to accept my body, to own it. I am fat, I don’t have a problem with that, if you do, then that is something you have to worry over. The plus size acceptance that seems to be taking the world by craze is such a great thing to see, I only wish it was around when I was a teen a trying to figure things out! For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fat. My fathers side of the family is solid,…

Plus Size Models.
Real life has dealt out a crappy hand of cards. It’s something I really wish I could talk about here, but I’ve been asked not to talk about it on facebook & figured that would then carry on over to my blog. Those of you who follow me on twitter may have some idea of what’s been going on. So, my days have been spent being a little emotional & not wanting to do much. Times like these I find myself losing hours flicking through sites like Tumblr, Deviant Art & Model Mayhem, looking at the pretty. Below you will find pictures of some of my favourite plus size models. I…
