Prising Nick away from his precious car racing on a Sunday is pretty difficult but I was going insane and needed some sunshine. We popped into Flamingo for afternoon tea and I remembered to bring the camera to document its adorableness. Flamingo is a cafe in the laneway behind the Zoo, I highly recommend visiting…

The Axis of Fat hit Southbank.
I am so fortunate to have wonderful local friends who are also devastatingly attractive fatshionistas. A few years ago when I was bemoaning the lack of fat activism in Australia, I was getting to know two of my friends Zoe and Sonya a lot better and out of our friendship we developed the Axis of…
Windswept and (not very) interesting.
Hey, look at me, I’m totally a plus size catalogue model. Today has been the first day of sunshine in almost a fortnight of rain, and to celebrate Nick and I decided to get out of the house (instead of doing long overdue washing!) The price to pay for such glorious sunshine? Gale force winds.…
Polka dot love
I promised I’d do a round up of all the people who posted photos of them wearing the Beth Ditto for Evans polka dot dress and then I promptly forgot about it. Fortunately, in this instance, nothing stays forgotten too long on the internet and when I was showing J of Fatshionable the hanky hem…
#dittowatch: From Evans to my wardrobe
I got my parcel of Beth Ditto for Evans stuff on Friday when I was actually at my mother’s preparing for my sister’s wedding! Nick called me up to tell me especially, pretty cheeky or caring husband? HMMM! I tried on my stuff last night and was super excited to take photos so I could…
My sister’s wedding
My sister got married yesterday (which is why the desktop isn’t up yet, sorry!) so I want to share some photos with you. Where my wedding was more unconventional in its styling, Michelle and Jordan’s wedding was more traditional with the big white dress and veil as well as dark suits for the groom and…
Outfit of the hens night
My sister’s hens night was last night and this is what I wore. The hibiscus was left behind… I only plucked it off a bush for photo taking purposes. I’m thinking about chopping this dress up and making it into a high-waisted skirt. It’s rarely worn because I just don’t do strapless dresses, and the…
I’m officially on #dittowatch
The Beth Ditto A/W collection hits Evans in a few hours and a bunch of us are chatting about it on twitter under the #dittowatch hashtag. If you’re killing time while waiting for it to be released, come join us! I think it speaks volumes about the scarcity of plus size fashion when a collection…
Kayser, feel my fatty rage
I don’t normally do this sort of thing, but right now I’m mopping up tears of frustration. After searching for sheer black pantyhose for a long time I went into Myer the other day I was surprised to find that the Kayser Plus Resilience Pantyhose size chart would accommodate my legs. This afternoon I tried…
Ridiculous outfit, serious topic.
After simply forever I finally got the t-shirt and dress I bought from the Asos Curve sale weeks and weeks ago. I’ve been sick this week, so it took me a while to try everything on and I can’t say I was very enthused about my purchases. The t-shirt, just a simple long white number,…
