Ridiculous outfit, serious topic.

27 August, 2010

A photo of my right hand (with lots of bracelets) lightly clasping a very long cream bead necklace.

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 long white...

Flowering plants, fanciful people and a fabulous pig

27 August, 2010
By Natalie
Photo of a tiny pink piglet with a fancy earring dangling from its ear. The earring is spangled with what looks like rubies and diamonds.

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…) I’m pretty sure watermelons have the...

Hello and welcome to my whimsified outfit photos take two! Please step into my Monday afternoon consisting of changeable winter weather, awkward poses and coffee with my mother. Allow me to demonstrate the items of clothing I selected for my body to wear today. Recently I’ve been having wardrobe dilemmas, and in years gone...

LBD for a VSO

Collage of Fluvia Lacerda, a hot honey-skinned plus size model wearing three little black dresses by Monif C.

With every day I get a little bit more anxious about what I’m going to wear to the Chambord Shine Awards finals and while I’ve cobbled an outfit together, it pales in comparison with these pieces from Monif C’s newest collection. LE SIGH. I wonder if I can pay for one of these gorgeous...

In a modern faery queen’s world

Detail of Deidre But-Husaim's Tiberius

When I came across this photo on Tumblr I loved it at once, probably because it reminds me a little of Kate’s work. Han Jin looks as though she were a faery queen, I love that pose. I might try to sketch it! See the rest of the Spring Breeze editorial from Vogue Korea....

It’s not fashion, it’s fance

30 July, 2010
By Natalie
A close up of a man's hand wearing a spectacularly huge purply coloured gem ring.

So I’ve been poring over street style blogs overnight; it’s unusual for me because I am not typically interested in straight sized fashion – and let’s be honest, street photographers rarely snap anyone plus sized (except Hel Looks, a blog that snaps quite a diversity of people!) I might write a little more on...

Lane Bryant, your market is changing #teamfance

30 July, 2010
By Natalie
Screenshot of a tweet from Lane Bryant saying "Is this really necessary? We say NO! Share your thoughts!" and a link to my "Does my fat arse look fat in this?" tshirt on Cafe Press.

Let me preface this with a huge disclaimer: I’m Australian and I’ve never shopped at Lane Bryant, however I have bought a couple of Lane Bryant dresses second-hand via the fatshionista community. Through reading fat-o-sphere blogs, I’ve gained a bit of understanding about how LB have catered to a disenfranchised market and how for...

The best argument against the evidence of democracy in fashion is a conversation with a fat woman

Over the last few weeks I’ve had the thrill of being involved in an arena of fashion I have never sought to enter. Threadbared have been discussing the issue of democratisation of fashion recently, and my invitation to cover fashion awards as a blogger could well be evident of this new democracy in action,...
