Ottawa Fashion, Beauty and Lifestyle Blog
This post is so exciting for me for many reasons. First, I am a Joe Fresh girl and have been since the very beginning. When you wear a size XL, you don’t have a lot of fashionable options, especially in Ottawa. Second, I am even more excited that Joe Fresh now comes in extended sizes (up to size 3X!). Now I can blend my passion for Joe Fresh and my passion for styling curvy women!
Found it!!
The perfect floral plus-size romper that I am going to abuse this summer! It’s got gorgeous bell sleeves, a flattering v neck and open slit back. And the floral print is absolutely stunning! At $21.90, you can not go wrong! The best part is that this design actually fits the torso! But be warned to go one size up in the Forever 21 plus line.
I did a huge haul at Forever 21 plus last week and I can’t wait to share my purchases with you! But for now, all you need to know is that I bought this and you should too!
I was invited to attend a fundraiser luncheon, hosted by Sue Norton of Pink Tiger. Over lunch, we watched Canadian fashion designer, Kristie Lance, present her Spring 2016 looks which also included her first full plus-size line. This fashion show lunch was also a fundraiser to support Look Good Feel Better. The lunch was held at Santé Restaurant, who hosts fashion show lunches on the regular!
Pink Tiger is an online marketplace that showcases a variety of Canadian designers. The unique shopping experience at Pink Tiger is built around a Random Acts of Kindness movement.
At Pink Tiger, we are truly passionate about two things: fashion and philanthropy. We believe that companies have an obligation to give back to the community – after all, our community is our customer base. We also believe that by supporting emerging and existing designers, we can give them a way to give back, just by selling an item on www.pinktiger.com.
She’s been doing some pretty crazy work all over Ottawa these days, and if you haven’t heard of her, you must be living under a rock! I am always amazed at Kristie’s talent and finally had the chance to watch the fashion show. I was front row, and not back stage this time! Kristie does custom design work and specializes in curvy and plus-size fashion! Her clothing line is available from size 0-22. She and I share the same philosophy when it comes to embracing your curves and I couldn’t be more honoured to share this with you! You’ll have to follow her #JoinTheRebellion ventures online.
