what do I have to say about that Bbsize article

I was violated...I'm not going to tell you where as I do not want to introduce traffic to her page

Ok wasn't really violated on the general scale of things this is pretty frickin' low, but miss L.Rigdon writer for some unheard of rag BBStyle used my picture next a picture of a model of a girl from a 2006 Jean Paul Gautier show claiming both of us and several more plus size girls as examples of what not to wear

Look this is minor but there were three things I am very upset about

a) the Author claims to be a professional writer... she has a website pimping herself out per word, professionals do not steal.

b) I had the photo in question posted to my flickr but not posted to any actual public flickr pool such as fatshionistas or death fatties, So Miss L.Rigdon not only stole a photo of me for her own use she had to go sifting through my whole personal gallery to find it in order to steal it

The picture was taken about ten minutes after I got my Jane BonBon Dress and I wanted to tell an online friend about it... I'm an idiot for adding it to my flickr, but on  the scale of things it wasn't so bad, I've seen some pretty fug outfits on the internets and looking at the the selection of people she chose as the what not to wear fatties I would rather be one of those than one of her recommendations of what to wear.

it has been taken down now though

"On request of people whose images we were using, we have decided to take down those images. Since the article was based on those images, we are taking the article down for the time being.
We are leaving your comments though. Thank you for taking time to post your comments.
Check back next week. We have another article that we will be publishing.
Once again, thanks for all the comments."


Or as the French say Le sigh.

Outfit: what I wore to the Burlesque Ball thingy

Necklace: Diva
Earrings: Thrifted
Petticoat: Tulle and Elastic from Lincraft


My darling friend Boo bought me a ticket to a Burlesque Ball and the theme was balck and red and so I wore this, I could write some long winded wank about being inspired by some Vargas pin up or a Billy Wilder movie... but I wasn't, I was poor, needed to wear something red and burlesque leaning and I had to be comfortable.

Shit I want: Australian Plus Sized Shit

Mline Dress; Avaialble at Myer

This dress is darling, this whole label is actually darling it's the youth off shoot of the Australian Plus Size stalwart label Maggie T (and if you are of a certain age or want to look that way I totally recommend they do have some great pieces I have a couple of maggie t jumpers that I thrash to death come winter) I tried on this dress at Myer a frew weeks ago and if I had the $199 I would of got it there and then it was impeccible quality and a fab cut... nothing but love for this label... so far

 

Cute dress, I think this dress wouldn't look as good when encased with my tits and arse but I can dream.


 

Don't usually care for the Dip dye phenomena of late but this I like and the dye looks flattering and with long term potential. P.S. Autograph the price point for this shirt sucks balls.


Actually dream diva has been the most impressive Aussie plus sized brand of late with their dresses and items all reasonably priced for Australia with a variety of tasteful and on trend pieces that don't verge into ghetto trash cough ahem City Chic cough, and their dress selection for plus iszes absolutely rocks and am thinking af buying me a birthday present for myself from there.

Outfit: of the Good Vibrations Music Festival

 


 Yesterday I went to the Sydney Good Vibrations Music festival with my bother and the boy to see Salt n Pepa, Gossip, Naughty By Nature and fuck load of other artists. It was great fun, even if it was bucketing all day and I couldn't fluff up the fro in the way I wanted to fluff it.

 
Top: Beth Ditto for Evans (actually found it in a Thrift Store here in Sydney)
Jacket: Thrifted
Shorts: pair of kmart jeans that I thrifted and cut up
Tights: Curvaceous
Boots: steel toe tradies

I don't particularly care for the top but I found it at an Op Shop for ten bucks and thought fuck it let's give it a whirl, they were selling the attached aqua singlet for $5 which I caved and bought too it was a size 32UK and I'm usually a 26UK in tops and dresses so I had to belt it otherwise I would feel awkward/swimming in fabric, and you have to excuse my breasts there is actually 3/4 of a bottle of vodkas stashed in one of these and I had deflated one of my boobs making screwdrivers at the bus stop

Yes I am that classy!

I wore it as to reference to Beth Ditto at the fetival but yeah, Gossip were clashing with Naughty by Nature on the schedule so she couldn't see me in the crowd and let me in backstage like she did with Stephanie .

Anyways every talks about Beth Ditto and what she is doing Fashion-wise for plus size girls well ahem I do love her and her style but if you have ever seen Basement Jaxx live you would have drowned in the hour and a bit of fat fashion fabulousness that is their live show .




 

in fact just google them and enjoy them, they are one of my most favouritest bands ever, their songs are perfections and you will be happier guaranteed if you listen to their music.



Happy Valentines Day!




I got roses...gag. Ok not so gaggy it's totally romantic and shit but I would of preferred cash. I is totally romantic like that! but there is a story behind the naffness but it will not be told here, mostly because it's boring and makes no sense to anyone except me and the boy.

Oh yeah I use those frozen festival slushie containers as vases

Oh yeah there were more roses but I got a little crazy with the secateurs and a couple died in the carnage

Oh yeah I have a shrine to Homer Simpson in my house, Ok I call it my Shrine but it's really a collection of figurines.

Karen Walker: Sun Gods Range... HAWT!

 

Oh my frickin god, I love Karen Walker Sunglasses and I NEED to have those red ones in my life and soon!


The Spank Bank: My new husband Jon Kortajarena and he will wear Tom Ford to our Wedding!

 
Meet my new husband image pinched from Sartorially Inclined

I sometimes have ideas of what my wedding would be like, not that I ever plan on getting married but I would totally do it for the cake or the cash or the visa.

Anyways I was perousing the interwebs and encountered  this overview of Tom Fords S/S 2010 and went oh my frickin' god where have you been all my life.

Anyways it's not so much him but he'll do tonight until I can print out some more pictures of Lee Marvin. but the above outfit, I'm a sucker for bow ties and men in unusual prints and honestly if I were to wak down the aisle and be a bridezilla I would want my groom rocking this... or seersucker...mmmm men in seersucker suits.  But I is late he is off rooting Madonna I think

Outfits: another bloody high wiasted skirt/ cardigan combo a.k.a what I wear to work most everyday

 
Headscarf: thrifted
Earrings: thrifted
Tank: Kmart $6 singlets
Cardigan: Moda for Target
Stockings: dunno?

This is fast becomign my stock standard work outfit, because a) it makes me look responsible...ish (worki is conservative..ish)  b) it's frickin hot and muggy here in Sydney and wearing skirts give my beloved corporate box the fresh air it needs and c) I can usually fart out an outfit like this or similar in ten minutes in the dark in the morning.

I like the combo I do I mean anytime I whack on a high waisted skirt my tits look spectacular. but i feel like every fat chick lady skirt-wearing individual is wearing the exact same thing!

  
Headscarf: Thrifted
T-shirt: Thrifted
Cardigan: Sara
Skirt: Evans
Hosiery: dunno
Earrings: Thrifted



I'm not really that upset by it but I want to figure out something a little more unique outfit wise, maybe a cape? or some sort of nipple adornment.
Anyway in other things the skirt in picture number 1 whilst it wrinkles like a 94 year old you have shoved into a suitcase, it is a great length, has pockets and is really well made, and if I wasn't so skint (poor)  I would buy me few in different colours to rotate it is a good skirt the waistband is versatile and comfortable (theres elastic in the back)

Outfit: of the Big Day Out Music festival

 
headscarf: thrifted
t-shirt: kmart shredded by me 
bra: kmart 
vest: an old waterfall cardigan I hacked the sleeves off from kmart
sunglassed: karen walker
boyfriend: mine: in t-shirt :as you see it art 

no full shots, of my outfit for the Big Day Out they were just some throwaway crap jegging things, but the bra was bitchin' and in line with my everything in red polka dot dreams and I was super comfy for the whole day which is al that counts.
P.S. Shredding your own t-shirts whilst fundamentally easy   takes ages and is kinda fiddly, takes ages, and can really hurt yo hands and if you are working with  a white t-shirt remember to keep your hands clean.
 

Outfit: of the Field Day Music festival

T-shirt: Bonds
Skirt: Thrifted
Headscarf: Thrifted
Hosiery: Coles
Boots: Tradesmen boots that I dangled a cut up belt from Supre off
Handbag: Roxy

I found a photo of me on my brothers camera and a suitable card reader, it's what I wore to field day this year day has been detailed here I am very much of the belief that one should dress for comfort at a music festival and not for appearances, and boy was I comfortable, when orange skanks vomited onto the ground in front of me I was so comfortable I could just laugh heartily withoug worrying abut vomit seeping in between the straps of my cheap glatiator sandal (as I werent wearing any) and offer them a moist towellette to wipe themselves up and bulldoze my way up the front to enjoy the show.

AHAHAHAHA!

Anyways the motto to this entry is if you are going to any event that contains alcohol and more than a thousand people don't wear open toe shoes... trust me  oh and always carry wet wipes.

Still alive: busy as f%$k; go look at some pretty things

 
a really good collection of images and a what happened after the happily ever after (oh I should warn there is a picture of a fat "Little red riding hood" who the photographer clearly indicates is fat because she eats fast food and that her life may be worse because of it, I think she looks hot, and am not offended by the connection insinuated by the photographer but if you are don't blame me if you click on the link)

 
 tres gorgeous, now I need me a man to buy me a hermes scarf and is content with the fact that I already have a boyfriend.

The Pedro Almodovar Film, Broken Embraces

I saw this a couple of weeks ago and I can't get it out of my head, it's 90's fabulous! The story is great and lovley but the Art Direction/ Costume/ Make-up like in all his films is something above and beyond whateveryone else is doing. I'm still thinking about some of the costumes in the 90's parts.

 
I mean look at the frickin poster



Everything, Related to the show "In Living Color"

Ages ago when I used to root around, I dated/ rooted briefly (super briefly) an American whose name escapes me (I really want to say Brad?) who told me about this show, and the reason why he watched it was it was funnier than most stuff on T.V at the time and also to perve on the Fly Girls a troupe of dancers, he told me that it was his sexual awakening watching the dance troupe in bike pants do the running man and other delicious 90's hip hop dance moves... anyway that was the only thought I had about this show until a couple of weeks ago I fellt compelled to obtain this and whole bunch of other classic comedy series of note to watch in my spare time, and I can totally understand why a 12 year old boy would toss off over this Those Fly Girls are Hot.


Yeah Jennifer Lopez was one of them but the earlier members of the troupe were so much hotter

I can't find me anyvideos that show the brilliance that was their outfits and moves, but I will.


Oh you must be sick of this link shit, but my camera is nowhere to be seen I hate crappy outfit photos.
