Lane Bryant x OTIS
I think I can contribute my passion for indie designers to my art background. I love purchasing garments from the people who made them – usually because you get to hear the thought process behind why things were cut the way they were, where the inspiration came from and what they envision their ideal client to be like. So when I got the press release about Lane Bryant teaming up with Otis College of Art and Design in Los Angeles, I was beyond excited. It’s so rare that in the

Glam Travels
Even though my husband is my go-to sidekick for on the road adventures, sometimes life calls for a girl-venture. I try to take at least one trip per year with my girlfriends. There’s something so refreshing about traveling with someone (like my best babe Nicole) who understands why it takes 67 minutes to get ready and also agrees that dance breaks between curling your hair are mandatory. There’s also something incredibly amazing about traveling with someone who understands th

It seems like it’s RebDolls week here on SG, and I promise it’s a coincidence. When I heard that Chastity of GarnerStyle was doing a collab with RebDolls, I knew it was going to be good.
I didn’t think it would be this good.
Nautical with a dash of plus size preppy, this collab is right up my alley. It’s the perfect way to kick off my new series, Thursday Three – where I share my top three plus size fashion favorites of the week. adrift pants | on deck crop top | the horizo

My Curvy Valentine: A Plus Size Blogger Collab
When Jolene approached me to do this collab, I’m pretty sure I yelled ‘YES!’ before she even finished asking. A Valentine’s Day collab with some of the hottest blogger babes on the internet? Um, yes. Allll the yes.
And when she showed up to our photo shoot with quintessential pink and red balloons, I swooned. This Eloquii dress is the perfect combination of naughty-meets-nice. The cool-toned pink is reminiscent of Sweetheart’s candy, but the black detailing on the bodice and
