Plus Size Fashion Freedom!

2009-06-10T15:01:00.000-07:00

Just ten years ago plus size women were limited to clothes shopping in the two back corner racks of the local department store. We didn't have a lot of selection in style and fit and really--we didn't enjoy shopping for ourselves all that much. It's hard feeling good about a wardrobe full of cartoon character t-shirts and too short stretchy pants, and it was disappointing to shop for more of the same.

Our choices in fashion were basic polyester stretch pants (remember those thick elastic waistbands ladies?), plain oversize t-shirts, and flowing, flowery polyester house dresses. Anything that was somewhat nice was stocked in limited quantities and at an exorbitant price.

Ladies we felt & looked frumpy and dowdy because that's all we had to wear!

Today however, full figured women can now enjoy trendy and comfortable fashions--at prices most can afford. And with easy online access, we are no longer limited to what the local department stores choose for us. We can choose from denims, cottons, silks & satins. Flower prints, stripes, solids and polka dots. Well fitted career wear, two piece bathing suits, short pants, long pants--the sky is the limit and we have more choices than ever before.

Want to wear a fun, flirty skirt? Or a trendy tanktini on that fabulous beach holiday? No problem! It's just a click away online. Your biggest dilemma will be choosing just one item out of the three or four that have caught your eye. What a shift from ten years ago!

Today taller plus size women can finally find those pants that fit both width AND length. And then there's petite plus size fashions for women who are shorter than average. We've got fashion selections now that fit all heights of fuller figured women--short, medium and tall.

With online shopping, plus size fashion freedom has finally arrived for full figured women. Choose all the figure flattering and trendy styles you want and say goodbye forever to frumpy and dowdy. It's time for us to shine like the beautiful women we truly are.

Chole Marshall : BBW Models

2009-01-03T12:33:00.001-08:00

About Chole Marshall in her own words...
I like the usual teenage things, experimenting with make-up, hanging with my friends, going to the movies and reading Chick Lit! I burst into the media spotlight when I was selected for Miss Surrey. I've been overwhelmed by the press and television attention and have given interviews to all the national newspapers. I also love giving facials because I like connecting with people and I like telling jokes...even though I'm bad at it!
I would love to be a top plus size model and support curvier women. I also want to help teenagers with their confidence and to love themselves in their own skin.
I've appeared on This Morning, GMTV, Five News, Sky News, Southern News, CBS, NBC, Good Morning America and Inside Addition (USA). I've done live satellite links to Russia, Japan and Australia and, to top it all, the Tyra banks show flew me to New York to appear on the show. HELLO! Magazine, Wome's Own, Women's Weekly, Glamour Magazine, Reveal, Best, Heat and OK! have also done features.
I want to show them that they don't have to starve themselves to be beautiful, because they are beautiful no matter what size they are.

Tips for Buying Plus Size Bras and Intimates

2008-12-31T10:49:00.000-08:00

Do the complaints of small breasted women send your blood pressure sky rocketing? Are you tired of hearing “At least you have breasts.” Being well endowed doesn't make life easier and if you are blessed or cursed with larger breasts than you know the pains of reality. Nothing fits right quite right and it's hard to find bra's that fit your curves properly. Although buying a properly fitting undergarments to fit your curves isn't easy, it's not impossible. With these tips you will find that you will look and feel great in intimates that suit your needs

Get Measured: I can't stress the importance of getting measured by a professional. Your body has most likely changed since you were first fitted for a bra. Maybe you've had children, maybe you've lost or gained a few pounds. Regardless of where life finds you, chances are you will benefit from a new fitting.

By the Right Size: Don't be tempted to buy the wrong size because you like it better or because the store doesn't carry the right one. Buying the wrong bra is going to detrimental to your appearance. If it's too small it's going to end up causing your bulge and if it's to large you're not going to get the support you need.

Don't Underestimate the Benefits of Shape wear: Shape wear can be your best ally when your trying to smooth your curves and look great in any outfit. The right shape wear can help create a smooth line from your breasts to your hips making you look great and feel more confident.

Shop Online: The internet is a great place to shop for those hard to find sizes not always readily available at your local department store. Not only do you have a wider selection online, but you are also able to shop in the privacy of your home, something that many woman prefer when they are buying intimates. If you do shop online be sure to be prepared by knowing your true size and acquainting your self with the companies return policy.

Treat Your Self to Something Stylish: Just because you may need more support or a bigger size doesn't mean you need to sacrifice style and turn to your average white bra. Lingerie retailers are aware of the plight of the plus size woman and have extensive lines dedicated to your needs.

Don't Sacrifice Quality: When it comes buying plus size lingerie your biggest mistake could be sacrificing quality for quantity or lower prices. You will be doing your body and your wallet a major disservice if you buy bra's that are of low grade quality. While you may save money immediately in the long run, bra's that aren't made well will break, stretch, and need to be replaced quickly. If price is a major issue, look online for bra sales where you can find quality bras for discount prices.
