4 Reasons Why Plus Size Women (or maybe just me) Dislike Wearing Bright Colours

Few days ago, i posted a historical moment on my Instagram. For the first time in my life, i actually wore YELLOW! And it wasn’t just a top that you could pair with some denim jeans.. nope.. i went all out with a bright yellow dress! Why is it such a big deal? Well, it’s kind of a step forward for me because i hardly wear bright colours at all due to some of the reasons that i’m about to list down. I’m usually a confident person with my personal style and choices, but this time was different.. i was actually nervous stepping out of the house… i kept asking my husband if the colour is alright… while walking towards my car i felt like everyone was starring at all my fats and rolls with disgust… which was weird because i’ve never felt so insecure…

As i drove my car to work, it was already too late to change.. So instead, i decided to change my attitude and just fake my confidence for the day. At work, comments came pouring in.. “wow! So bright!”, “Oh my goodness so bright! Chinese say you can scare the ghost away with that!” ERRKKK! Well that didn’t boost my confidence at all! HAHA! But a friend of mine ensured that it was”OK LAH!” Wasn’t as bad as i made it seem, she said. Well anyway, that particular day inspired me to write this post. These are the reasons that i realised along the way on why most of us (plus size) women (or maybe just me) dislike wearing bright colours. Continue reading

I Believe in my beliefs

[huge_it_slider id=”2″]

 

I believe in affordable shopping.

I believe in finding the best buys.

I don’t believe in spending hundreds on a single piece of clothing.

I believe that fashion comes and go, but style is forever.

I believe that items as small as earrings can do wonders to your overall look.

I believe that the type of footwear you choose can change a look in a blink of an eye.

I believe in dressing according to your mood.

I believe that it’s OK to wear a top/dress/shoes/accessories multiple times (you don’t have to use something new ALL the time!).

I believe in getting creative with what you have.

Fashion Plus Size Tips

Breastfeeding & Plus size friendly style tips

I NEED TO GO SHOPPING! Well, every woman would probably have that urge, but for me it’s a desperate need as i look at my wardrobe and squeeze my brain on an outfit that would be breastfeeding friendly. I’ve been looking online for some outfits specifically designed for breastfeeding, but lets just say that the styles are sometimes just too boring and most of the time it doesn’t even cater to a plus size babe like me.

 

So where does that leave me?

 

Off to do some research i went on some style tips that are not too tacky yet friendly for the breastfeeding mom. Here are some tips that i personally found useful in order NOT to sacrifice my style and keep a budget to my wallet.

 

  1. Wear a tank or spaghetti top underneath your clothes.

I found this tip super useful as it gives me the freedom to lift up or pull aside my shirt without exposing to much skin and still give me the opportunity to wear the clothes i have in my wardrobe.

What i really think about Mis Claire’s Joy Flexi Pants

Being a plus size and finding a pair of pants that fits perfectly is no easy task. It might fit you around your thighs but then it’ll be loose at the waist, OR you’ll find the band around the waist too tight after eating and it’s giving you a muffin top. And what about finding the right pair of plus size skinny jeans/pants.. That’s probably worst right?

Well, about a week ago, i received a pair of pants from a Malaysian & Singapore plus size online store called Mis Claire. It’s called the Joy FlexiPants and here’s what i really think about it:
