Plus size fashion and me

F.A.S.H.I.O.N was never my cup of tea.

Since I was young, I had very little or almost no confidence in dressing up my self. So I joined the girls-dress-up-like-boys group. The main reason was I couldn't shop for my favorite style in local stores. To date, I'm still a lose hope to shop at local fashion boutiques. How strange is that??

So just why is this happening? Well, the average fashion sizes available in local boutiques are normally size S to XL, now available in XXL. And me? I'm an XXXL. I wear jeans at size 40, blouse at US size 42-46. a size 16/18 person. FYI, these size figures used to be so rare for Asians, but not anymore.

Thank God for plus size model agencies. Just when I thought I'm most probably a fashion loser, I stumbled on Ashley Graham, a super gorgeous plus size model. She speaks of self confidence and she is a living proof that all women deserve to be pretty regardless of sizes. I realized that I HAVE what it takes to be pretty myself -- just be myself. Now my confidence in fashion has flared up, and I'm inspired to change my image.

I found Ashley appeared in Isuuu e-magazine for Madison Plus. She's such a super hot young woman. She makes me want to be a happier and beautifully-dress-up woman.

So ladies, for those who keeping saying that you are FAT -- Think again. Do you still want to use such pathetic word to describe your self? I'm switching to CURVY. It sounds sooo much sexier.

It's been tooo long

Woow woow woow... Oh Geez!

I've been hybernating for sooo long! How are you all?

I know, I know that spring 2011 has just passed. So what I've been up too, huh?

Well, just stay tune to the next post. (I've been up to something these days)

Cheerio! 

We went flea market

Greetings from Margaret's Passion!

Last weekend on 14th & 15th Aug. 2010, Margaret's daughters set up a flea market stall at Megalong Shopping Complex, Donggongon.

Mark (Bibiana's husband-to-be), Jenny and Evelyn

Bibiana -- Our fashionista

Evelyn's handicraft works -- Toilet paper holder

Our collection -- Beaded bangles

Fancy pens

Stall ready for business. Check out how the signage was done. :)

There were quiet variety of items displayed for sale but guess I was too exhausted to take photos.

And how was business? Lotsa people but not much sales. Perhaps the people are still new with the flea market idea or they're just waiting for pay day. ;P

Anyway, we had a great weekend and we'll be even more prepared for the next one. :)

Best regards,
Margaret's Passion.
