Dear Readers,
When I first started Style IT, I thought it was appropriate and professional to be a more private author. As my writing style and my blog have naturally evolved, I have found it important to reveal more about myself and my professional life.
When preparing for my third season at New York Fashion Week, I came to a solid realization - I had let the pressures of being in that atmosphere cripple me emotionally until I had resigned to being a wallflower in my own professional environment. From my desire to turn these feelings around, On The Plus Side: A Fuller Figured Fashion Week Experience, a mini documentary about being a plus sized woman at New York Fashion Week was born.
As I put the project together, I realized that I was not the only woman to experience these emotions. No matter your size, there is something about your body you wish was different, and we should be helping each other instead of hurting one another. So many larger women do not realize there are affordable, fashionable options for all size ranges.
I've been fortunate to receive the support of some incredible sponsors. I am proud to wear their products over the next 8 days and help empower other plus size women.
On The Plus Side: A Fuller Figured Fashion Week Experience is sponsored by:
Kipling - Amanda Jaron - Silhouettes - Old Navy - Lane Bryant - Kitten Couture - B & Lu - IGIGI - Bliss NY PR - NARS - Shiva Hair Care - Pro Silk Hair Appliances - Sun Sauce - Kathryn Kerrigan - Fig Leaves - Barefoot Tess
Videos, spreads of my outfits and beauty products and in depth reviews, not to mention Fashion Week coverage will be uploaded daily. If you don't want to miss out on the fun, subscribe to updates via email or RSS.

I'm so proud of you! I'm having heart palpitations and I'm not even going to be there. I'm really bummed...wish I could give you a big hug
