Being real women, we all know that what suits one of us, definitely isn't the best choice for others. This section isn't about the rules of fashion - about what you should and should not do - because for us plus sized ladies one size just doesn't fit all!
What it is about is helping you make good choices about what makes you look fantastic, about how to dredge out those make-your-day bargains and ways to make shopping for clothes less of a chore (for those of us who have not yet been bitten by the shopping bug, that is!).

I seem to devote a lot of words in here to distinguishing style from fashion. Fashion is merely a tool available to one's style, a context for it at best. Now I can almost understand fashion when it comes to clothes, music, hairdos - things that can be changed regularly with little inconvenience. But has it occurred to anyone else as well, how absurd it is that certain physical characteristics can be more fashionable than others? That having high cheekbones somehow could make you 'more beautiful', or straight hair, freckles or lack of freckles, a large bust, no bust, long legs, thin legs, shapely legs, curved eyebrows, blah blah blah…

The most exciting thing happened to me this week - heading home one night about 6pm, I got lost. I do this a lot being unfamiliar with Auckland and its wily ways.

And being Thursday night, it was open.

Having your footwear properly match your outfit can be a tricky proposition at times. Shoes can make or break an outfit, so it is very important to match them properly. Once you have chosen which outfit you are going to wear, and for what occasion, then you can decide which shoes you will choose to set the outfit off.

Oiks! From 79 days to 13 with nothing in between, what does that say about organising a wedding? It is time consuming!
But today I had to report in and share this milestone of style – yesterday I could actually put my whole dress on for the first time.

Eyewear is an expression of style, and today it can be as individual as the people who wear them. We now have plenty of choice in eyewear, just like we have choices about the clothes we wear. Your choice of eyewear can easily date you so try choosing a wardrobe of eyewear that reflects not only your lifestyle, but balances your face shape.

You know it's human nature to group things into bundles rather than consider them separately, we seem to store information in files with labels and find it hard to differentiate among the various contents of those files. Particularly when there is an emotional attachment to any of those items.
What has all this to do with Fashion and Style?
