Pardon my Cellulite

 “This post is part of the October 2013 DailyVenusDiva 'Thrive In Your Curves' blog carnival.

If you can believe this is my first summer wearing shorts and short skirts a dresses...IT's TRUE. I was like many plus size women and was very insecure about showing my legs. I would just suffer through the summer heat in jeans or maxi dresses. This year was all about embracing the body I have regardless of what people may think. My thighs are covered with cellulite, but what's crazy is I had less cellulite when I was wearing jeans in the summer. It may not be appealing to some but I refuse to keep myself covered. I love my body and I am not afraid to show you who I am. Ladies it's ok to show off your arms or legs. EMBRACE THEM!!!

Style Info: I have worn this tank top before in a previous post (here) and some of you thought it was a cropped tank, but it is not. This is a men's tank but I loved it and had to get one. I don't wear sneakers often but having style is being able to switch it up without losing your spark. My boyfriend ended up wearing the same brand tee and sneakers as me (he wanted to be twins lol). It was just a fun day to kick back and chill.

Skater Tanks and High Waist Skirts

 
So this weekend I spent my whole Saturday at the Waterloo Premium Outlet. I have not been there in years and had not planned on going either. My boyfriend brought up going as a great way to get out of the house with our daughters and I though it would be a great idea. I knew I wouldn't be able to shop till I drop but I was really just looking for great pieces that can be versatile for work and play. I shopped at stores I never have before like straight size stores and found very cute pieces that fit me perfectly.
 

 
 It would be a long day in hell before I though a straight size piece would fit my plus size body. I no longer think that way. I have other plus size bloggers to think for that. I follow so many other plus size fashionistas and can honestly say they have taught me a few things. Both my skirt and tank is from straight size stores. The tank is also from the men's section. I wouldn't wear this shirt work but this skirt is the bomb. What's crazy about this skirt is that it won't even go up over my butt and hips. I have to put it on over my head and still fits me perfectly. I also love how it's pleated in the front and back and the entire waist is elastic. The shirt is so cool, I think it's more for women than it is for men. This outfit is so fun, I just love it!!!
