    Suitcase Shenanigans – American Tourister

    I used to travel a lot, I lived in Adelaide, all my family in Sydney & I’d often work Conventions in Melbourne. One year I flew 15 times. I had a bright pink suitcase that came along with me, but sadly on my move back to Sydney, it died. It served me well. On my trip to New Zealand, I borrowed my parents suitcase, but when I said YES to going to Aitutaki, I realised, I really should get a new suitcase. I only now wish I’d bought an American Tourister bag sooner! This bag is heaven. I love the 360° spinner wheels, I’ve never had a bag with these before, and I was just…

    I simply must have.. at Simply Be!

    I’m constantly browsing the net for pretty things and one store I can never seem to go past for some amazing plus size clothing, is Simply Be. Not only do they carry clothing, some going up to a size 32, they also have swimmers, lingerie (by Gok Wan!), but they have also released an AMAZING Bridal Collection! Leather effect skater skirt –  Sequin Trim Jacket – Metallic Skinny Jeans – Contrast floral shirt – Floral print leggings I was only thinking the other day, that a plus size brand needs to bring out metallic jeans, I am so in love with the look of them! I want a silver pair so badly! Of course…

    I love dresses!

    If you read my blog, you have probably noticed that I have a love of dresses. Short, midi, maxi, a-line, pencil, circle, the length or style doesn’t really matter to me, it’s always a dress I will choose over other clothing any day. I’m not quite sure when my love of dresses started, but I know it’s here to stay. One think I can’t seem to go past is a great floral dress. The thing with floral dresses, is that it’s the only item you need to make a great outfit. You don’t need to worry about ‘statement jewellery’ or ‘does this colour blouse go with this skirt’, the dress…

    It’s time to talk summer swimwear!

     It’s summer here in Australia, while I’m much more of a fan of winter, one thing I really do love is swimming! But finding a bathing suit, guh, annoying! Luckily we have the luck of the internet on our side these days, and sites like Plus Size Swimwear make it easy to find something that fits, is affordable and stylish!  Miss Mary of Sweden Swimdress | Blue Wahoo Halterneck Bikini | Beach2Beach Polka Dot swimsuit | Beach2Beach longer length swimsuit| Zoggs Halterneck Padded Swimsuit | Beach2Beach Halterneck Bikini | Pour Moi Tummy Control Suit I LOVE the fact that they have bikinis up to a size 32! While not every lady feels confident…

    Marisota!

    Marisota has the tag line of ‘Designed with you in mind‘ and I couldn’t put it better myself. While Marisota have a huge range of plus size clothing, catering up to a size 3, one of the thing that really impresses me about Marisota is the range of accessories, lingerie and boots! Anna Scholz Glitter Tunic | Long Sleeve Floral Tunic | Changes Boutique Maxi | Bespoke Day 2 Night top | Shapely Figures Bra | Blue Wahoo Swimsuit | Stella Pug Wristlet They cater up to a size 58 (UK bra sizing ladies, I believe 58=36au) and an L cup! For me, a size 20 (that is 42 in UK…
