Viva Las… Hamptons? I Test Drive my Inner Preppy Style with Tommy Hilfiger Plus Size from Macy’s
Category: Plus size fashion
Length: Shorter
Idea: Let’s begin this with a few simple truths. First, I am a child of the 90’s. Second, I consider my default go-to style to be decidedly bohemian; comfortable boho with a side of cowboy boots. Third, when it comes to beach-culture of choice, I’m West coast -vs- East coast, all the way. So when I partnered up with Macy’s to showcase Tommy Hilfiger Plus Size fashions, I was ready (and excited) for the style challenge. Bring on the preppy! As a native New Yorker, Macy’s has always been a bit of a religion in my family. The 34th street flagship store was a mecca for my mom and, and as I have gotten older, I find myself turning to their website to snag the styles I can wear in my everyday life. Tommy Hilfiger is a fashion staple at Macy’s. Men’s, Women’s, Plus size – it’s pretty much a given that Tommy Hilfiger can outfit you and every person you know. The last time I really pondered Tommy Hilfiger, it was when Destiny’s Child looked like this…
Mermaid and Retro Vibes: Spring Swim with Lane Bryant
Category: Plus size fashion
Length: Shorter
Theme: Last week was the first day of Spring... or so they said. Meanwhile, my Uggs are still near the door and my worn-in hoodie is my go-to when I walk in the house. So when Lane Bryant reached out to me to share some of their brand new swimwear for the season, I was READY to go! While I love the curled up and cozy feeling of a chilly day, the freedom of skipping on the beach in the perfect bathing suit is ALWAYS welcome! In this #sponsored post, I'm sharing two of my favorite picks from their Spring swimsuit line-up, dishing about the fit, and what you need to know! Disclaimer. Lane Bryant asked me to pick my favorite swimsuit... I picked two. They asked me to share pics of one suit, but I liked both so much I am sharing them anyway. LOL. If you have followed me for awhile, you know I have been a long-time shopper at Lane Bryant. Every year I put their swimwear to the test!
Hiking Red Rock in Lane Bryant Sculpting Leggings
Category: Plus size fashion
Lenth: Moderate
Content: There are things I have always said that I wanted to do. Hiking? That was one of them. When I started my wellness journey in April of 2016, just the "idea" of going hiking was hard to comprehend. This is coming from the girl who would take her dog for a walk using an extendable leash... standing in one place and letting the dog only go as far as the leash would go because the walking was hard for me. For the last year and a half, there are times I've earmarked for a hike; milestones I said "let's hike to celebrate that" but it never happened. Two birthdays have come and gone and I hadn't given it a spin yet... I was tired of waiting. When Lane Bryant told me they had some new plus size activewear coming out, I didn't need an excuse to actually make it happen. Because that's what life is about, right? MAKE. IT. HAPPEN!
