Plus Model Mag & Me

holiday red pants

oh plus model mag. over the years i have wanted to take clothes from your pages, watched you grow up, watched you mature and change, and i’ve watched your fashion get crazy good. and, last month, you let me grace your pages myself!

did you get a chance to see november’s issue of plus model mag?

want to see what i wore? the pictures are below! i had so much fun not only styling the shoot and picking out all of the clothes at lane bryant, but i also had an absolute blast with the plus model mag team. they are professionals and treated me so well! i want to thank them for helping me to get pictures on film of my fine self in my 20′s so that when i’m 80 i can look back and think, “yes, girlfriend. you worked the mess out of life. and that photoshoot.”

do y’all like the poses? how would you have styled a shoot if you’d won $500 from lane bryant? super, super special thanks to lane bryant for providing the moola to purchase some of these items. (and, of course, i shopped my already super lane bryant-intensive closet, as well).

this is the first time i’ve done a “sexy” look EVER. usually when you see me without pants i’m trying out a bathing suit for you, but i figured, what the heck. i’ve got these ol’ sequin boots laying around. let’s put ‘em to good use! andale!

ASOS Future Stylist 2011

IMG_8733nored

most of you know that i’m working as a stylist now, and you’ve probably figured out that i specialize in plus sizes.  ASOS, who has a line called ASOS Curve, which features really on-trend pieces that are cut for curvy bodies, is having a competition. they are looking for someone to style a shoot for ASOS Magazine, and i’ve put together two looks that i’m going to submit. no doubt, most of what i wear is very original, and styled brilliantly.  i’ve also got a wonderful photographer and photoshopper in my amazingly awesome boyfriend, sean-paul.  he gets the red eye out.  let me know what you think of these two outfits – which one is your fave?

hair piece – ALDO necklace – target dress – ASOS Curve gloves – ALDO boots – victoria’s secret

turban – beauty supply store in my hood earrings – probably target caftan dress – ASOS Curve bracelets – a mix of vintage and department store ring – JC (jacques penney) shoes – ALDO

special thanks to my good friend emily for the tip off!
