Curvy Girls At Sea Pictures FINALLY
The Curvy Girls at Sea Cruise to Bermuda pictures are FINALLY up. I had to go through 600 pictures (no lie) to edit it down to the ones that wouldn't incriminate anyone too much...what happens on the boat stays on the boat :-).
Details on next year's trip are coming soon! Most of the girls that went this year are saying they want to go to Barbados for Carnival which I think would be HOT! Other options are Hawaii or a European cruise...what are your thoughts? Where do you want to come with me next year?
Start saving your duckets, you don't want to miss next year's trip!

We’re BACK!
I'm back from Bermuda, and all I can say is, if you weren't there, you MISSED a helluva time, LOL :-). Those girls wore me out! I'm going through about 800 pics to post, so bear with me. Plus I travel to Toronto this weekend for the Fuller Woman Expo and a plus size clothing and dresses trunk show at one of my boutiques Lola and Gigi, so it's a busy busy week. PLUS, convertible dresses are shipping this week, so all in all, cut me some slack!
Here are some cute pics of some of the crew in Bermuda, more to come!

Bish is Fierce #1
So I am starting a new section on this blog called "Bish is Fierce". It's on honor of all the beautiful, hot, sexy, fashion-forward plus size women that I see rocking the hell out of their outfits. The media and society (sounds so cliche) would have you believe that plus size women aren't fashionable, but that is indeed not the case.
As the "queens" would say "10ssssssssss across the board honey!".
Here are some pics of different women, many of whom have their own blogs related to plus size clothing, so check out their pictures and their blogs.

Christina, Musings of a Fatshionista
Natalie, Australian blogger: Axisoffat.com
Gabi, Young, Fat, and Fabulous: Youngfatandfabulous.com
Huny is not a blogger, but she wore this HOT outfit to Full Figured Fashion Week, pic courtesy of youngfatandfabulous.com
Plus Size & Fit Bootcamp Video
I haven't done a plus size & fit post in a few weeks, so I am coming back with a really good one. So in my previous post, I mentioned that I have joined a fitness bootcamp, Aja Davis' New Body Bootcamp. We work out in Fort Greene park in Brooklyn T - F from 6:30pm -- 7:30pm (all those people who live in the other borourghs or NJ, I live in NJ, so no excuses). Mia, one of my plus size models, put me on to it and I love the bootcamp. I've always liked being active and I thought it was important to share with you all that we can all be plus size and fit. I want to emphasize that this bootcamp for me is not about losing weight. Matter of fact, on the first day and last day of the first 4 week session when Aja weighed us, I turned my back on the scale, I didn't even want to know the number. Now this is not because I am scared of what the number is, really I could care less, but rather because it's not about a number, it's about being active.
So now I am on my second 4 week bootcamp with Aja and I love it. Squats, jumping jacks, boxing drills, running, and relay races oh my! Plus 5 Monif C. girls signed up to do this session with me...Kristie, Kate, Gabbie, Mia, and Alexis. And you can too! For all you girls that want a great but grueling workout and want to be pushed like you've never been pushed before to the point where you wonder after the session, how the hell did I do that? This bootcamp is for you. We start another session on September 8th, so I want you all to sign up with me. Go to http://www.ajadavis.com, and you can contact her directly there. She is offering a special $199 rate for all Monif C. girls.
Here's a video to show you some of the things we do with Aja on a daily basis! Oh, and for those asking, as promised, I'll be doing pole dancing and trapeze classes starting around November. Hit me up in the comments section if you are interested in those!
