More Than Just a Pretty Face

I read this a while ago and it inspires me daily.

When you’re a plus size woman, people like to say “yeah, she’s cute in the face”, as if being full figured is such a disgrace. Honey, I’m cute in the face, and I’m thick in the waist. I look good whether I’m in cotton, leather, or lace. I’m beautiful, vibrant and above all, smart! And there’s more to me than my weight, I also have a heart. Yes my clothes maybe a bigger size, that just means you have access to a bigger prize. We all are not self-conscious about our weight, and we never have a problem getting a date. So don’t think your small frame gives you more pull, I’m a hot, sexy, curvy woman with a figure that’s full.

There’s a special challenge for a woman with a fuller frame when she is looking for stylish and trendy clothes. Fashion brands tend to forget about the ones who may be larger than a size 12. Even if they do make larger sizes the mostly look like something left behind in the 70’s and 80’s. Not fashion forward at all. As a plus sized woman myself I like to fee comfortable but sexy at the same time. My weight should not and will not be a restriction on my self esteem.

I came across this company called Poetic Justice. I know what you’re thinking. “That’s the movie with Tupac and Janet Jackson.” You’re right but this Poetic Justice is a clothing line for the woman who embraces her curves. A woman who is not afraid to stand out in a crowd. The woman who says look at me. Look at me as a woman, not just a “BIG GIRL”
