From Lane Bryant

Even though I LOVE fashion, I am hardly a fashionista. There are so many other fashion bloggers (plus size and straight size) that usually blog all about the latest designers, trends, etc. While I feel I dress well, it's nowhere near "fashionista" status. There's been some Twitter talk I've noticed about Lane Bryant's clothes not being ...

Mi familia

This is not meant to be a sad post at all. Not my intention. Today would have been my mom’s 53rd birthday. She passed away a little under 3 years ago from complications of a very speedy progression of young-onset Parkinson’s Disease. I’ve had a hard time trying to grapple with the emotions revolving not only …

Little Victories

08.16.2009
Victory by sgatto

Sometimes when times seem challenging, we need to program ourselves into celebrating little victories. It can be a little silly to say little victories out loud to others because to them, the acts we spout about don’t mean anything.
