Summer wrap up! 2011

This year I can honestly say my summer was extremely fulfilled and worth while!  I did sooo many great things!  Had sooo many wonderful adventures!  Spent time with people I really wanted to spend time with and went to a few places!  I did NOT want it to end!  I know that I keep saying that over and over again, but I honestly didn't!

Well now we are awaiting for fall's crsip arrival!  I mean its actually here, summer's over, but we keep having strange weather that allows u to get into your shorts and sandals again and again.  Soon only boots and coats will decorate this blog and the bodies of my beautiful followers. 
Until then here's my ode to summer!  FaTshionable and not so FaTshionable!  But memorable, fun, and exciting!  Here's the pics that weren't blog worthy...Until Now!  : D

Me and my friends went to Baltimore this summer!  I use to live there and still have family and friends there, but we were on our way to a rave!  These pics are at the Harbor!

I think these pics of Jessica and Dave could tell such a story!  I love it, my creation!

The Beach with a very special friend!

Maryland!  Eastern Shore!  So beautiful and no shark sightings unlike the Jersey Shore!!!!

One thing I learned since my move to North Jersey!  That there is no place like home and people that love without any conditions!  To my family and friends!!!  CHEERS!  I LOVE U!

My Godson!  I love him SOOOOOOOO much!!!  <3!

Me and my Ace!  My cuzzin too!  And friend!  Dave!  We are Wasted~!!!!  lol

OOT "RAINY" D!

It was a rainy day when I took these pics in Jersey City!  So it meant I finally got to wear this raincoat I scored at a thrift store for like $7 or something crazy like that!  It has really cool buttons and a lot of potential.  There needs to be some sewing done on one of the pockets, but other-wise than that it was a real hit.  A lot of people liked it and my thrifting taste may actually be pretty good after all!  The next time I wear this it will be in TOP-NOTCH condition and I will zone in on this cool buttons!  SO AMAZING! 

I decided I am not going to post this give-a-way until I reach 60 followers!  We only need 3 more!  I guarantee you that the give-a-way is worth your while and on trend for fall!  So please tell your family, your friends, your co-workers, your acquaintances and your enemies to follow this blog and U, YES U, could be the proud owner of this fall's trend_______!!!!  (lol, yes I have sense of humor, more than u know actually).  I think soon I need to do a video blog, You have never heard my voice or really seen me in action, so that may be pretty cool!  I hope you guys think so!

Anyways!  I hope you all are keeping dry and keeping it real...and keeping it FaTshionable!  I know I am!!!!  : D

Hey guys!  As you all know it seems summer is escaping us!  If you've been reading the blog lately you know that I honestly don't want to let it go!  Even though school started, last Wednesday me and my friends skipped class and enjoyed what we thought was going to be the last beautiful day!  You know with the weather cooling down and a constant breeze A-blowing I could resort to my favorite summer shorts from The Avenue along with this button down shirt from Lane Bryant I haven't had the chance to wear.  I got my friend Amanda to snap a few pics of me before we headed out for our adventure.  We ended up at the beach and the party didn't end until 5:30am!  O those summer nights!!!  (John Travolta voice)  I'm going to miss them!

Stay tuned for the giveaway I been telling you about and my summer wrap up!!!

Blogger Conference/Fashion Week!

Hey guys!  Like I previously posted I was invited to a Blogger Conference hosted by www.Plusmodelmag.com for a new line of coats debuting in a week for plus size women called Just As YOU Are!  It was during fashion week and the night before was Fashion Night Out, so the city's energy was high and they're were fabulous people around everywhere.  The blogger conference was no different.  Beautiful plus size women everywhere doing their thing and sticking out for ALL the right reasons.  I got to meet some blogger's that I've followed for a while and the whole atmosphere was amazing!  There were computers set up for us right there so we can blog or tweet immediately during it!  (I was tweeting the whole time so if you don't follow me on twitter yet then come on around @thickspot) 

 
When you go about ordering your coat when their site launches this week, I believe Wednesday you just put in your measurements and they send you a coat.  Basically, JustAsYOUAre!  They took away the standard sizing the fashion world puts us in, but they did assure it would fit up to a typical size 32!  But we are not typical!

I have never been to any type of blogger meet and greet before so this was quite a treat, and a little intimidating.  Well Not really only in my mind because I was sooo nervous.  I must have went through 12 outfit ideas.  I wanted to wear a dress I originally got from Forever21!  A polka-dot sheer dress with a black slip underneath.  The problem was the slip was too short and everyone would probably see my ass as I walk up the subway steps.  So I finally decided to go over to Kmart and get this gorgeous vest they had in the LOVE YOUR STYLE line (I previously wore a Romper from their line this summer...http://thickdaddys.blogspot.com/2011/08/romper-pockets-graffiti.html) and pair it with the shorts I already scored from the new successful plus size line at K-mart and I took the slip from the Forever21 dress I was going to wear and wore it as a sheer shirt with my favorite bra underneath!!!  The funny thing is when I got to the conference one of the first people I saw and noticed was Jeannette Arrowood from the blog http://www.xoxonettap.com.  She was one of the first people to review the LOVE YOUR STYLE line from K-mart and highly recommended these shorts.  I told her she was the reason why I bought them.  I finished the look with a pair of low heels from Lane Bryant that I got for $8.99!  I must say I thought I looked hot and got a lot of looks and a couple numbers ;)!!!!

ENJOY!!!
