It’s undeniable – the world of blogging is becoming more and more popular, and with plus size fashion largely relegated to online stores, it should come as no surprise that the ranks of plus size style bloggers are growing. This is awesome because it means that you can find people whose style fits with your own – meaning you’ve got shopping ideas, fashion tips and style inspo right at your fingertips. Here are some of my favourite plus size style bloggers to follow at the moment, just to get you started:
Inbetweenie Fashion Bloggers
Inbetweenie sizes are those on the smaller end of plus size (14-18)* – an inbetweenie babe could shop at some plus size stores (these sometimes start from a size 12), and can usually find clothes in straight sized stores too (at least, they can in New Zealand, where most straight size stores carry up to a size 18 – this may be a very different case outside NZ). While inbetweenie women might have a wider selection of places to shop, they are sometimes looked down on by other members of the plus size community, something I’ve never been able to understand. Body acceptance isn’t just about people who are over a size 18, it’s about understanding that all bodies are good bodies, and loving yourself at all sizes and shapes. With that, I wanted to share some of my favourite inbetweenie fashion bloggers – check them out and be inspired! View Post
How to beat Chub Rub
Chub rub. It’s when your thighs rub together when you walk, causing friction. It’s not awesome in any way – it can result in pain, redness, irritation, chafing, bleeding, and a whole host of other things. It doesn’t matter whether you’re thin, fat, or somewhere in between – if your thighs touch then there is the possibility of friction.

It’s been far too long since we had the lovely Rachel GeeBee on the blog, and I thought that she’d be a great way to perk up this chilly Monday morning. It’s definitely feeling more like autumn than summer here in NZ, but that doesn’t stop me from dreaming about beachwear! View Post
