“Being plus size is more than a size. It’s a community” _ thefatgirloffashion

I landed in beautiful Atlanta with a mission. My mission was to help in celebrating the plus community. I’ve appointed myself as Chicago delegate for the plus community. I fly all over showing support for others in the community. People who share the same values I hold near and dear to my heart.

These values include but aren’t limited to: Being happy in your own body, Dress in a way that makes your heart happy, Fashion don’t stop at a size 8 and plus size women aren’t to be shamed but celebrated.

I met Phat Girl Fresh last year at TCFStyleExpo and I’ve since then she’s an outspoken advocate for the plus size community. Her brand had a mixer to kick off the start of #lifestyled17 weekend. Plus size cuties from across the U.S. and Canada came to rally behind Maui. In her brief speech she expressed how grateful she was that so many people came out to support her event.

This is year one of what I hope is an annual event. The mixer was so much fun. I got a chance to see all my blogger boos, dance, eat, drink and be merry. What more could I girl ask for?! This is a real FoMO (fear of missing out) weekend. If you can’t make it this weekend be sure to follow my Instastories so you don’t miss a thang!
