I have to confess I loved the idea of
starting a blog but truth be told taking photos of myself and uploading them on
my blog really takes me out of my comfort zone. I am such a private person and
I am so uncomfortable with putting myself out there. And having a fashion blog
is definitely a big way of putting myself out there. In addition my job is crazy busy, I am a doctor
and I work in research so am constantly on the road to rural areas so sometimes
it can get a bit difficult to get time or opportunities to take photos of
outfits but this not withstanding I am determined to make it work this time. I
always feel its a waste to put on something crazy interesting and unique and
not chronicle it or share with people. I have been receiving constant
encouragement from some of my dear friends to restart my blog makes me feel
kind of guilty about not making my blog active.
Of late I have been reading many blogs on
women who are plus size like me and I feel am getting confidence and motivation
to start uploading and posting photos. Please check out blogs like

turn. I am now wearing more vintage and I scour flea markets looking for skirts

an edge and I always love the final results (more photos soon).
I love this look I think its so simple and elegant. The red belt gives the look a pop of colour

Here I am with a few girl friends at the games. wearing a simple black dress and a cropped denim jacket
Like I said earlier my style has been changing over the last few months. I am wearing more skirts but making the look more me (if that makes sense at all). I bought this Zara skirt at the flea market and decided to add an african print at the waist band (more photos to come). What do you think of this look
