Have you planned your Christmas party outfit yet?

Gone are the days when choosing your festive party dress meant a disheartening trip to the high street for a choice of frumpy tent like outfits more suited to a night in front of the telly.

Now the choice in plus size evening wear can make you the envy of all fashionistas in attendance.

For example, the new satin jewels dress from Curvety is sure to wow at your festive events. Created with the curvy figure in mind, in sizes 16 to 36, this satin dress has a small element of stretch to guarantee a perfect fit, plus it’s fully lined to give a flattering silhouette.

It is available in black or dusky pink to suit your mood and finished with three oversize jewels to the ruched bust to dazzle perfectly.

Bigger Women Have Better Sex Lives

November 18, 2008 at 11:30 am (Plus Size News) (, , , , , , , )

A recent study has shown that plus size women have better sex lives than their slimmer counterparts and the Mirror are keen to shout it from the roof tops by way of an article on sexy BBW’s who rule in the bedroom.

A freelance journalist has been commissioned to write a feature for the women’s section of the Mirror and has asked me to help find some sexy case studies.

A new study has revealed that bigger women get more sex than their slimmer sisters which rubbishes previous studies which concluded that larger girls had a low libido, while skinny ones were more likely to be sexually active.

Gail is writing a feature on larger women who say that although they get may get sneering looks from other women about their size, they literally have to fight men off. She is looking for women who are a size 18 or above and perfectly happy with their bodies and their sex lives.

Case studies will attend a professional photo shoot in London where they’ll have their hair and make up done by professionals. All stories will be read back before submission.

Natalie’s YO YO Dieting

November 13, 2008 at 10:54 am (Plus Size Health) (, , , , , , )

Written by Emily Robinson.

Slated in the papers for her fast weight regain, is Natalie really to blame?

Recently slated across magazines and countless internet sites, Natalie Cassidy has been seen back up to her original weight. Is she really to blame or is this ridiculous obsession to be stick thin the reason for her plummet and quick regain. Realistically no-one could have believed someone who is clearly naturally curvy to stay a size 8. She is being quoted as being depressed and in tears about her weight gain and im sure all of the bad press coverage isn’t helping her. It’s a waste of time to spend every second calorie counting and watching what you eat she should enjoy her life and enjoy her success but instead she is being made to feel fat and ugly. Headline have said how she has ballooned back to her weight and, ‘she’s the fat girl off TV’, but really she is just being compared to her previous.

Yo Yo dieting its self is very harmful for your body, your body is going from one extreme of eating large amounts to eating nothing back to eating more again so the strain on your body is extremely unhealthy. Natalie sadly will have regained everything in fat as her weight decreased so rapidly leaving a small muscular frame and her weight has been regained so quickly it will be stored as fat.

I think the pressure of the good press she had because of the weight loss inspired her but once she realised it was near impossible to keep the weight off she relaxed and settled down, it seems she is naturally a curvy girl so she should learn to love her curves like we all do!

The Colour Purple

November 10, 2008 at 6:06 pm (Plus Size Fashion) (, , , , , )

If you wear one colour this season it has to be purple. Vibrant, sexy & powerful, The Autumn/Winter violet trend is anything but shrinking.

A huge hit on the runways, being utilised in the collections of many designers including Versace and Alberta Ferretti (pictured). It has also been adopted by the high street in both fashion and homeware and is sure to brighten up the colder months.

According to the rules of feng shui it also symbolises prosperity – which certainly can’t hurt at the moment!

Although bold, purple is very versatile. Mix it with greys & blacks for less of a statement look – or go all out purple to stand out from the crowd.

If, like me, you have fallen in love with the Alberta Ferretti dress pictured, there is a similar style plus size evening dress in purple chiffon (pictured) available at Curvety.com.

America’s First Lady has Style

November 6, 2008 at 10:58 am (Plus Size News) (, , , , )

Being across the pond in the UK has done little to remove me from the buzz surrounding the US election, and the historic win of the first black president.

Stealing as many column inches as her husband, if only in the fashion world, is America’s new first lady – Michelle Obama.

The general consensus is that the woman has style. Mrs Obama has gorgeous curves which she acccentuates perfectly, with no help from a personal stylist, so we are told.

Mrs Obama has been applauded for her fashion choices during the campaign, with women across the world seeking out copies of her smart, colourful dresses and well-cut skirt suits. She recently told Jay Leno that she shopped for most of her clothes online.

On election night I have to say that I think Mrs Obama suffered a rare lapse of taste. Wearing a red and black scoop-neck dress by Narciso Rodriguez for the historic moment, was a decision that has sparked instant debate among the fashion-focused.

Nobody gets it right every time so i’m sure it wont be long before Mrs Obama is back on her fashion pedestal and leading the world in power dressing with style for the modern woman.
