The Curvy Con 2017 Edition

This weekend was CurvyCon and I have to say it was the most fun I've had in a while! If you don't know what CurvyCon is, it's a convention for plus size women to shop, drink cocktails, and shop some more. Like every other convention, they had panels of different topics such as body positivity, being a girl boss, and an amazing "Dear Retailer" panel that had CEO's of 5 different retailers (Target, Lane Bryant, Dia&Co, Modcloth and Macy's)  that carried plus size options.

On day one Dia&Co hosted the most fabulous fashion show EVER! I was so happy to see the new collections that I didn't mind that I was standing all the way in the back. The brands that were featured are spectacular brands that are gonna change the plus size fashion world for seasons to come. The Molly&Isadora collection spoke to my inner Parisian girl that wanted to wear stripes, knee high socks, and oxfords shoes on a rainy fall day. But my favorite collection had to be the Girl With Curves collection that Tanesha Awasthi collaborated with Dia&Co!

Here's the live stream of the whole fashion show!


On day two there were many panels that I enjoyed and will be talking about on the podcast this week so stay tuned! My fave panel, of course, was the Girl Boss panel with Nicollette Mason, Gabi Gregg, Cece Olisa, and Chastity Garner Valentine. These babes are forever my favorite bloggers and I got to listen to them speak on how to start a business and believe you can do whatever your heart desires with time and patience.

 My OOTD's for both days were everything and I feel like they showed who I was. Unfortunately, I'm way too shy and didn't really interact with many bloggers. All my faves were in the same room and I couldn't handle it!
