Thanks for this hun :) I did do a little rant. I didn’t want to do it on the facebook page so was quite diplomatic on there but needed to vent, and that’s what a blog is about right? opinions and thoughts. It’s a shame about the negative comments. If it was a year ago I probably would have cried myself to sleep and vowed to lose weight the next day. But not it just makes me more set on being happy and confident. :)

Yes I did see it and I gave the dissenters a little piece of my mind. :D We’ve got a long way to go until society realises that all bodies are good bodies and there are a million complex reasons for the way each body looks. The thing which I find most shocking is a lot of the crappy comments are coming from other fat women. Us plus bloggers tend to be quite confident, and because we see so many types of bodies represented in plus fashion we’re very accepting of all kinds of bodies. I think a lot of it comes down to their own internalised fat hatred, and because THEY wouldn’t dream of wearing something, they try to bring down or embarrass those who can. Really the best thing they could do is read the blogs of some of the people they’re sniping about, and then they might learn to love themselves, and consequently others. When you’re confident in yourself you only want to raise other people up, not bring them down. x x

I completely agree! I used to get so frustrated trying to shop for myself (like you, children and work are a priority, so time/funds are limited). But the plus-size blogging community has made an amazing difference in my life as well. I can usually tell what will work on my shape when I see it on a woman (vs a professional model), so shopping online is so much more enjoyable.

I also agree with you about the women wearing the David Emanuel dresses – they all look fantastic!

Don’t really understand this whole fat shaming ‘trend’. I’m bored of it and maybe the people who are making those nasty comments should have the confidence to go out and flaunt what they have got! All of the ladies mentioned above are beautiful and anybody who tells them otherwise is just jealous!
Sorry about that, just getting really annoyed with it all! xx
