The Curvy Model Does FNO
Madison Plus posted my FNO experience! This is only the first part of it, follow this link for the whole post!!! <3
By the time I got to Lane Bryant it seemed like most of the crowd had already been there. But that was great for me! Know why? BECAUSE I got to meet Ashley Graham and Lizzie Miller, two beautiful plus size models who I look up to a great deal. They were both very sweet and got...

Anonymous asked: Do you still love Crystal Renn after her dramatic weight loss? I think after she lost weight everything she stood for was lost. Her biography sounds interesting but the underlining fact of self acceptance as a naturally fuller woman has been lost. What do you think?
tanibelle asked: You are an utter inspiration! We're like the same size, though you're much taller and you inspire me to love myself more and try to ignore mean thoughts from other people trying to bring me down. You're frigging gorgeous and I hope you do well with your career! I saw youre on ModCloth which I frigging love so much, though they do need to have more plus size stuff though it really...
Mandy's Absence
Hi. Kevin here. I’m Mandy’s fun and lovable boyfriend. Mandy has her head buried in her school books right now (literally), so I’ll be taking the helm today.
Here’s a few photos we took last night on my computer. Every hip couple seems to have a few of these photobooth pictures on Facebook or Tumblr, so we would be crazy not to as well.
Mandy had some recent dental work...

Relaxing is nice.
I finally got to relax in Deep Creek Lake for the first time in a few months! It was so refreshing, it was crisp and cold all weekend! I LOVE FALLLLLLL!
Believe it or not I didn’t take any photos all weekend! It was actually a good thing, I got to cuddle with Kevin for most of the weekend. I also got to hang out with his cousin and her boyfriend. WE are the cutest double date ever. We went...

My Asos dress
Not much of a story with this one, sorry people! I was going to Kevin’s place to make dinner. The dinner we made didn’t turn out as planned. We expected it to taste awesome and it was merely mediocre. Still fun to make. :)
Then we did homework the rest of the night… I think we watched the end of True Blood too! :) I was sad not going to lie, WTF Sookie! WHERE ARE YOU...

Oh my...
It seems that the world is still having issues with the “plus size” industry.
After being the only plus size designer to show and open Milan’s Fashion Week for the last five years, Elena Miro was EXCLUDED from the schedule. Their answer to this:
-Head of the National Chamber of Italian Fashion Mario Boselli told the AFP, “Some labels just weren’t in line with what...

OSP Fashion Show After-Party
This post was brought to you by: MADISON PLUS! I really wish I could have gone to this show/afterparty! The girls look gorgeous.
After the OSP fashion show, Erica and I hopped into a cab down to the The Standard Hotel’s fabulous rooftop bar The Boom Boom Room. We were so excited to be able to put our feet up and relax with the lovely ladies from the runway show.

I leave it up to you my fellow tumblrs!
You can recommend me if you like! :} I consider myself a “personality”!

caramelbebe asked: Hey there! It's so refreshing to see a Tumbleblog like yours! I was just looking through your blog and I find it really interesting that anyone from a size 8+ constitutes as plus-sized which I find strange because the majority of people are, so why should anyone's size need to be affixed the term "plus"? All bodies should be embraced for what they are, not confronted and made...

Recently I stumbled upon some Pro-Ana blogs that just made me feel disgusting, and so horrible, and it took me back to a reallllly bad point in my life when I did everything I possibly could to be skinny, but then I found yours. You are just so gorgeous! And make me proud to have the curves I do, thank you so much, and good luck with your...

Modeling for Hips and Curves!
I leave for LA tomorrow afternoon and it still hasn’t exactly hit me. I called my mom this morning because I was really excited! She was really excited too, but then I told her what the website was and she got nervous… My mom is a very conservative dresser so knowing that I will be doing scandalous photos made her nervous! She even pulled the “do you want your dad, boyfriends...

Fashion Night Out With Madison Plus!
(this post is from Madison plus, but I am in some of the pics! Annnd I took about 50% of them!)
Last Friday we spent our evening hanging out with all of our fans at the Lord & Taylor, Madison Plus FNO event.
Erica and I had an amazing time running around the floor styling up the curvy mannequins in pieces from Micheal Kors, Not Your Daughters Jeans, Adrianna Papelle, Calvin Klein and...
emelyellen asked: hi many!
i absolutely love your style, and i just recently found your blog! i myself am a plus size girl, and i've always been into the whole "vintage, hip" kind of look. what are some of your inspirations, and what stores do you find best for plus size shopping that really gives an edge to someones style?

What I wore
This is what I would have worn my first day of school, yesterday, if it wasn’t so freaking hot! I just love this lace maxi skirt, I would wear it everyday if the weather would chill out a little (literally)! I bought it back in 9th grade after I officially parted from my “punk” phase. I wore it constantly for a while in high school then probably didn’t wear it for 3 years. Never the less I...
vred asked: Being 5'11" do you find it intimidating to wear heels? I'm 5'9" and I feel like a giant if I wear any type of heel so I stick to flats whenever I can. I guess I was just wondering how you feel about tall girls in heels being taller than everyone, even their boyfriends.

makeherblush-deactivated2011072 asked: It's really uplifting seeing someone as comfortable wiht their body as you are and everything that you stand for on Tumblr. I think it's wonderful what you're doing, and I think you're beautiful. I myself am on the larger side, and though I have yet to be fully comfortable and happy with my body, I am trying, and you are really helping to inspire me to feel better about...
Anonymous asked: what is your BMI?
sparkling-cyanide asked: hi! i really enjoy your blog and I really love what you're doing for fashion but if you don't mind, are you really plus sized? i always thought plus sized was like size 18+, as size 16 is the most common size in england, and honestly you really don't look any bigger than a size 14! hope i don't offend you or anything! :) x
soccergirl87 asked: Are you modelling in America?
spazzedoutmuse asked: Hi Mandy,
I loved the dress that you were modeling in your outtakes. What is it called? I've always wanted to get something from Mod Cloth, but am always afraid that my curvy body won't work in many of their looks because they are too short!
Thanks
