hey

Hey all……
Hope your all enjoying the bank holiday, so I am going to be changing up the blog a bit. Its no longer going to be passion for fashion for plus sizes. It now going to called Passion for fashion. The reason for this is that I love all fashion, for all the different sizes, and would like to try and look at the women’s fashion as a whole. Even though the blog will be for all I will the plus fashion will be my mine concern, What I am going to be doing is once a month do a plus size special.
Hope you enjoy the changes o blog and continue to view it.
Xoxoxoxo

Please look out for next week post on size zero.

These jeans are £19.99 from new look.







Black Cardigan from new look for £14.99












I love these leather Rope Ballet shoes in every girl shoe collection should be many pairs of Ballet shoes, just feel that they go with most outfits, and they are light enough to put in your bag to change from your heels after a night out or a long day at work. These ones are from new look for £19.99. I am loving new look more know has they are offering wider range of shoes sizes they stock up to size 9

ladies ladies

Hey all, so I am going to be doing a male fashion post soon. Its for us to get to find what is fashionable to them, allot of men proclaim that they dislike shopping so they get their partner to and buy it, or they say the like to go in a shop and out a shop (they don’t like trying the clothing on in the store). I just want to know why? maybe because I love to shop so I can't understand how someone can dislike it so much. Also I want to know what they look for in fashion, and what is fashion to them? For females we know the dress has to fit a certain criteria, colour, style, fit and sometime texture. Is their a checklist that they have whilst shopping? So many questions I have. So please look for this post coming within the next couple of weeks.

Wining outfits from the summer.

So this summer saw me getting into maxi dresses I honestly think hands down this was the best investment I have made all summer. I bought three strapless maxi dress from Primark for £9 in brown and black, blue and white and pink. If I was to award this dress I would give it marks 10/10 I just loved the fit of them, the length, the comfort factor and just about everything to tell you the truth.
By all means these dresses are simple but its how you accessorise this dress that brings it out more.
I tend to wear mine with either sandals or peep toe wedges and gold accessorise, sometimes I team it with a belt but other times I just let if flow loosely.
This is a prime example of something that can be still worn in winter; no I have not gone mad. What I would do is wear it with a jumper on top a fitted jumper then it’s like you wearing a maxi skirt and a top. Or you can wear the boyfriend shirts to wear over the dress just to keep your arms warm.

I also love my purple maxi dress from New look its more of a fitted one, but still in love with as the others.


So I never thought I get into jumpsuits/playsuits if anyone had asked me I would have said you’re having a laugh jump suits would not suit me, as I thought they concentrated to much over my stomach area. Well I have to now eat my words I am absolutely in love with jumpsuits.
I bought four this summer and again what a good investment. The one I am most in love with has to be my flower print play suit. For me to buy a short one I had to be in love with it as I have scars on my leg so I tend to keep them covered unless I am on holiday or I just can’t get away with wearing leggings or tights. I teamed it with brown wedges, I have also worn it with flat sandals. 

When I first saw this bow dress I walked past it because I thought it’s really boring to tell you the truth. It was not until I said let me try it on that I liked. The key to shopping for me is the item of clothing you work past is normally the item of clothing that would look good on you. I originally wore this dress to my God-son christening I wore it peep toe nude/tan wedges and I teamed it with the same colour clutch bag to make a little different. I teamed it with bronze accessorise. When I was holiday I wore it flat sandals. The dress is from new look


This simple £6 outfit is from H&M I love clothing that don’t cost a arm and leg to look good no thank you, I want my money to stretch especially how I like to shop.
The black mini skirt is £2.99 from H&M love love love it, and the pink vest top is also from H&M for £2.99.



Ok ok so my Favourite item of clothing bought this summer is this orange smock dress. I just don’t know what is but I love it, I really do. You know when wear something and you just wow I got it right well that’s how I felt in this dress. Ok I must admit I love my shoes with as well. The dress is from Primark for around £13 they still have them in stock in the following colours blue, purple and orange in sizes up to 20.
Don’t you think my shoes are cute as well they are orange poka dot bow wedges.

Style icons

I always say I have amazing friends, its great when you have people around you supporting to do better. All my friends are very fashionable and they are my style icons. When I started this blog I said I am going to look at people that inspire me in my fashion sense both internal and external. I have decided that this month that Shade, Margaretta and Mary are my style icons. Why are you asking? Simply because I love their individual fashion sense they make it work for their own body shapes.

I love their everyday fashion sense but what I really love and respect from each them is when they use a traditional material and make a modern outfit from it. To me they are saying look we don't all have to conform to a particular image to be classed as stylish. couple of months ago I said its like we have lost our individuality within fashion, to me there is no point of 10 people all looking the same, all acting the same, all liking the same I look for 11th that says I am different, I have my own sense of style.

Like I said previously that I truly believe that style, fashion, body image, is understanding who we are have the conviction to express it. For me personally this is what these beautiful ladies have and do.

In the “what is beauty” post I said that young people need better role models that it’s like we are condition the youth to believe beauty must look and behave in one certain way. Sorry but NO, if you ask me beauty is these three ladies, as the love, respect, understand their internal fashion this is what I call role models not the celebrities that if they don't like the way they look they get airbrushed. No real individual women, that learns and works on their internal fashion first and then when it comes to external fashion it becomes effortless. For these reason they are my style icons luv ya chickens. xoxoxo


























Personal note

hey all I hope you all well, its been a while since I last blog anything so I apologise for this, I am know back and ready to show some new exciting things. By the end of this week will be post my wining summer outfits, I think its safe to say summer is truly over, but don't be packing your summer clothing away just yet going to show how we can still wear our maxi dress, jumpsuits etc in the next coming months.

I am so looking forward to the full winter collections to come out, I seen a lovely pair off winter boots which I think is a must buy for my winter wardrobe. I think this winter for me is going to be about the comfy but stylish look.

The last couple of months I have really grown more into my style, I am thinking this is because I am becoming more confident, the important thing about fashion is not the clothing but the person wearing the clothing, remember I said before their are two different types of fashion internal and external, so I have been working on my internal fashion  dealing with my own confident, and body image issues because their is always room for growth, that the beautiful thing about fashion in general is that it’s a leaning experience no one is ever going to get it right all the time. I will always argue that as females especially we need to always work on our internal fashion as our exterior fashion can only hide so much.
