I don’t normally do this sort of thing, but right now I’m mopping up tears of frustration. After searching for sheer black pantyhose for a long time I went into Myer the other day I was surprised to find that the Kayser Plus Resilience Pantyhose size chart would accommodate my legs. This afternoon I tried [...]
After simply forever I finally got the t-shirt and dress I bought from the Asos Curve sale weeks and weeks ago. I’ve been sick this week, so it took me a while to try everything on and I can’t say I was very enthused about my purchases. The t-shirt, just a simple [...]
When you saw this pretty piggy did you clasp your hands together and squeal?! That’s what I did. Apparently this is part of a jewellery spread for Vogue Russia featuring Cartier and Chopard. There are some more photos over at fashionologie! (I just hope those earrings are clip-ons…)
It’s time to announce the winner of the fat necklace giveaway!
Firstly, I want to thank everyone who entered. Thank you for sharing your story. So much of the time in the fat-o-sphere, and indeed in general every day life, it feels like we are reacting to the pervasive and hurtful body policing that puts [...]

At this stage we are likely to [...]
I’ve seen images like this around for the past few days but it wasn’t until I visited Kent Rogowski‘s site that I understood that he’d actually made a series of combining different jigsaw puzzles. Apparently you can mix different puzzles within the same brand together because they’re cut using [...]
Lately I’ve been feeling 90s fashion, probably because I follow Tavi’s Tumblr and she’s discovering all the awesome third wave/ riot girl stuff from last decade. I don’t know about you but I wore a lot of slip dresses, cardigans and boots in the 90s; I was a teenager and I [...]

As you might have seen I finally got my hair cut, and I’ve been playing around with it to see just how many different ways I can style it. Having dead straight, fine hair I love the idea of having curls and it’s nice to be able to play with my hair and make [...]
Following the Lane Bryant kerfuffle lots of people bought fat shirts in solidarity! How totally awesome! Some lovely people have shown me photos of them and their fat stuff, which is really cool because it proves that people are embracing the f word! If you’ve been one of those radical people and want [...]
