Hi, I'm Natalie...
I am 5'2 and a size 18, which means I am petite AND plus size. Those two sizing terms might seem like polar opposites, but full figures come in a variety of shapes and sizes—one of those being short! I'm here to share my petite plus style tips with you and to show the world that short, plus size women belong in fashion!
But that's the short and sweet version...learn more here:

 Thanks to America's Best Racing, my friends and I enjoyed the most perfect fashion outing at the Arlington Park Race Track. The day was filled with horse races, fun, and fashion, of course! 

We spent the whole day on the Paddock getting a first hand look at the horses before they raced, and then we ventured to the track where we cheered for our top picks. I always picked the gray horse to bet on, apparently that's a bad superstition at the track. Well, at least my outfit was on point!

FRINGED

I took a break from the busy city of Chicago for a week and headed back home to Boise, Idaho. As you can see, the timezone, climate and scenery weren't the only things that changed as I flew to the west. My style took a little shift and I was embracing laid back ensembles distant from my usual urban attire. 

I never realized just how much the environment you're in can influence the style choices you make. Although I'm not a huge fan of country living, I enjoyed having a slightly different style and embracing another side of fashion I didn't know I could rock! 

But... I'm happy to be back in Chicago!
