As a petite plus size fashionista, it has been extremely difficult to fit into fashion and find clothing made for my body. But 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!

IF LOOKS COULD KILL

Whenever I am feeling insecure, blah, or lack luster, I put on an all black look. Why? Well, an all black ensemble looks sleek and polished—even if it's yoga pants, a black hoodie, and a cropped leather jacket. And when I look chic and polished, I feel vibrant.
