Kia ora, I’m Meagan! You can read more about me here. I started this blog in 2012 when I was a 28 year old design and visual art student, as a creative outlet where I could talk about fashion and beauty. In March 2013, I sat down and tried to figure out what made me different from the hundreds of other fashion and beauty bloggers in New Zealand. You know what makes me different? My experience as a fat woman.

I started blogging specifically about plus size fashion for two main reasons – the first is that obviously I am a plus size woman myself, and as someone who has been fat all of my adult life I understand how difficult it is to find nice clothes for plus sizes in New Zealand that are reasonably priced. The second is that there were no existing dedicated independent plus size fashion media outlets in New Zealand. No magazines, no blogs, nothing. And so, I decided to step in to that gap.

On my blog you’ll find lots of fashion and style related posts, but also things I’ve experienced as a plus size woman – talking about everything from body image to skincare to travel. I’ve also got you covered with tips on where to shop, as well as discount codes and where to find the best plus size sales.

I’d love for you to come on a journey with me! If there is something you want to know, please leave me a comment on the relevant post or send me a message via my contact page. If you’re looking for something in particular and can’t find it on here, let me know! Chances are, it will be something that I can write about for you in a future post.

This is NZFW 2013: Day Two

NZFW_logoDay two of New Zealand Fashion Week was pretty brief for me – I only attended one show because I had to go to uni classes and submit an assignment (damn uni getting in the way of fashion!). Fortunately, the one show that I did manage to attend was Trelise Cooper and it was awesome!

This is NZFW 2013: Day One

NZFW_logoNew Zealand Fashion Week kicked off on Tuesday (which is kind of weird – why would you not start at the actual beginning of the week? Anyway…), and it was a super mega ultra long day for me (and everyone else associated with NZFW, I’m sure), so be prepared for a really long post! View Post

Aussie Curves: Vulnerable

AUSSIE CURVES headerAt the beginning of this year, I challenged myself to develop a healthy relationship with my body and become more comfortable in front of the camera. All year I’ve been working on this, and the Aussie Curves challenges have gone a long way towards pushing me out of my comfort zone and in front of my camera. So far this year I have shot (and exhibited) a self portrait series that included nude photos of me* and pictures of me in a bathing suit, as well as countless outfit posts.

This week’s Aussie Curves theme was vulnerable, and here I am: without make-up, and without clothes.

WIWT: The NZFW 2013 Edition (Day 4)

Yesterday was the last day of New Zealand Fashion Week for media, and the second to last show I’ll be attending this week. The Miromoda show was the one I’ve been most looking forward to this week – so much so that on Tuesday I even had my nails done in honour of DMONIC INTENT’s collection (which they showed in the Miromoda showcase yesterday)! This is what I wore to the Miromoda showcase, which is a celebration of the amazing talent of our up and coming Maori designers:
