Launching tomorrow @thepurpletigerboutique swim! Launching tomorrow @thepurpletigerboutique swim!  Let me tell you about this suit. When I saw it on the hanger I was like hmmm let’s see how the bottom works on me. When I got the suit on I was impressed with how the fabric really molded to my body and gave me the coverage I wanted.  The top is also very supportive and I love the crisscross. Bonus. I have also worn this as a body suit because it’s just that cute.

Let’s talk about the launch. You can purchase this suit in store tomorrow from 3:00 to 5:00. After the in person event you can purchase the pieces online. Set your alarms and don’t miss out.

Curve The Runway

I love fashion. I always have. Not just the clothes but the behind the scenes, manufacturing, design, all of it. The Carrie Bradshaw quote that always resonated with me was, ā€œsometimes I bought Vogue instead of dinner. I felt it fed me more.ā€Ā  I feel that quote in my soul.

Being near fashion feeds me creatively and it feeds my soul. However my love of fashion has always been somewhat bittersweet because I have never been a ā€œtypicalā€ size. My shoulders and hips are wide and size 8 or 18 I don’t fit into things that are available in a lot of stores and boutiques. Over the last few years brands have begun to recognize that most women are not a size 2 and there is an incredible need for trendy, fun, fashion that fits a variety of sizes. I have tried to use my platform to recognize those brands like the LOFT, Gibson Look, Anthropoligie and boutiques like The Villa in Mandeville who are stepping out and offering lines for women who are petite, tall and plus size.

Last weekend I was able to attend Curve The Runway. Created in 2018 they are a fashion show that only showcases women who are curvy, plus, voluptuous and doing the damn thing. All of the clothing that walked the runway was in my size!  Do you know how long I have watched fashion shows hoping there would be one thing that would fit me?!?!?  These women are representing a hugely under represented group in our culture and I am here for it.

I could tell you all about it in my words but their mission statement is just perfect…

“Curve the Runway is not just a fashion show, we are also committed to year round events where the intersection of fashion meets purpose and that purpose resurges a movement of Empowered Women through meet & greets for both consumers & fashion retailers. Which is why our mission is to Inspire, Empower and Inform. To be a voice for those who have been silenced by insecurities, public scrutiny and personal tragedies. Curve the Runway serves to provide a platform to remind ALL women of size, as well as young girls, that WE matter. We are here. We are ā€œSome Kind of Beautifulā€ and we are enough.”

If you would like more information on the Curve the Runway project you can visit their website here or follow them on facebook.

    Tiffany, I didn’t get a chance to meet you at the show, but this post makes me wish I did. Our stories practically parallel one another. Thank you for being an advocate for the curvy community. Hopefully we will meet in person at next years show.

About Me
I'm Tiffany. Although some of my favorite people call me Tippy. My favorite color is pattern. Seriously, I've never met a pattern I didn't like. My style is as bold as my personality and you should never trust my hair color. I am all about size inclusive style on a Nordstrom Sale budget.

Disco Nap: 2/3. This year I have worked through a Disco Nap: 2/3. This year I have worked through a lot of emotional baggage on what being beautiful is. That most of our focus of being beautiful is intertwined with the desire to be thin. Angling our bodies in pictures to the thinnest look, looking for clothes that are ā€œflatteringā€ and shaming our self when our body doesn’t look like we want it to in an outfit. So many things about body positivity are nuanced and deep and layered. Ive accepted and grown to love so many things about my ever changing frame but I even knew there was this deep seeded hatred of my belly knowing it’s not aesthetically appealing to society. Even as I write this I won’t lie and say this last year I’ve learned to love every part of my body and I never feel shame about it. What I have learned is that I’m not going to hide it anymore. That I’m not going to try to make myself appear smaller than I am. Because trying to hide is leaning into the shame.
