Plus size fashion rules

Now this is not a new subject in the plus size community, but this blog is not only about plus size fashion but also about my road to self acceptance, so here it goes.

I have been toying with the idea of cutting my hair for a while now, like 6 months.
I talked to my hairdresser about getting a bob and whether it will suit me or not, I've had bobs in the past but I was thinner, wayyyy thinner.

He said  that a bob would make my face look rounder.
This is the rule, take a round face add a face framing round haircut and it will look rounder. Dam!
I really wanted a change!
Then I saw Amelia Hart doing it on Instagram, and then Catsuewho and holy molly, they looked fantastic!
So I thought Fuck it, if it looks bad it will grow, I want this haircut, I want a change, fuck the rules, I am doing this.
And I did!
And it looks amazing.



I Felt like a million bucks, These picture are taken in the parking lot of the hairdressers. I am wearing another Eshakti dress, dress fits super well, but the belts suck ass, they don't stay in place, this one is safety pinned closed. 
 
My bag, is vintage, it belonged to my Grandmother, it holds next to nothing but I love it.


 The Pin is also vintage, given to me by this crazy old woman my mother had as a lodger at one point.

 My shoes are Value Village find, they are BCBG and they are definitely ''party shoes'' as in go to party and sit and drink till you do not feel how uncomfortable they are. But super cute, non?

Oh and my hairdresser? Mathieu smiled the whole time he was doing it, encouraging me, saying this is going to be awesome.

So the point is if you want to take a fashion risk, do it, maybe it turns out bad, maybe it doesn't. But if you want to evolve, you gotta take a chance or else you will never know. Like this... 

...Oh ya, THIS! that's me with a taxidermy fox head clip I saved from ending up in the trash, it's freaky good, like me, and absolutely breaks every rule in the book.  It think I will call him George.....
