Looks like I’ve been busy this April, so thought I’d do a little recap.
I’ve mostly been talking Plus Size it seems.
Gorgeous Bete Noire jewellery

I’d seen loads of people wearing Bete Noire necklaces before, and was really impressed, so I got in contact with them to do a custom design.
I wanted something fairly simple, just my username and a symbol of being a spoonie.

#WeAreTheThey and I’ll wear tight clothing if I want to

The beautiful Debs has come up with a new plan for #WeAreTheThey, today a group of bloggers will be breaking some so-called rules for plus size women. We are wearing the kinds of things that normally the fashion industry considers forbidden territory for us larger women.
Because why should slimmer women have all the fun?
Preparing for Samhain

Some of you may be thinking I’m a little bit early, some more of you may be thinking, “what on earth is Samhain?”
I best start with answering that question. It’s a Pagan festival that happens on the 31st October and it marks the end of the harvest and beginning of Winter. You will also know it as Hallowe’en.
So now all of you are thinking I’m a little bit early. But I’m not..
Not only #WeAreTheThey, we are also people not animals

Since Plus Size Wars has been on I’ve seen a few idiots people comparing plus size girls and women to pets. The two instances that come immediately to mind are, “our pets would be taken off us if we let them get that fat”, and “it’s like with pets, we’ve forgotten what normal looks like”.
What the hell is with those comparisons?

Sisterhood thanks to #PlusSizeWars and #WeAreTheThey

The last few days have been incredible, and quite emotional. I’ve never seen anything quite like it, and will always treasure having been there for it.
It all started with Plus Sized Wars, a programme on Channel 4 about plus size bloggers and plus size fashion. As the time approached for it to air almost my whole Twitter timeline seemed to be holding it’s breath. Was this going to be a horrific car crash of a TV show? Were we going to see beloved bloggers used as cannon fodder in the name of controversial television?
Birthday, OOTD and #PlusSizeDebate
This post has now moved to here.
Now there’s a combination!
So today is my birthday, I turn 31, which I have to say feels whole lot less stressful than turning 30. I have come to terms with my 20’s being over finally.
Today has been an interesting day,daughter ill, plans cancelled, and then to top the morning off I got abuse when I went to drop my son off at nursery.
