I stumbled upon <a href="http://www.alexandreanissa.com/" target="_blank">Alexandrea Anissa</a> lingerie the other day and I am so happy I did. Sizes range from xxs-2x, and special order to 5x. I mean that alone is amazing. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The pieces are handcrafted in SF by the designer herself. So they may seem a bit pricey, but supporting a female run, gorgeous hand made line that creates pieces like this is something I will always do and definitely be saving my lunch money for. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I'm always interested in the more artistic side of lingerie and I plan on starting a collection. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think the Mesh Crop Top and the Fawn Lace Bralette is where I will begin!</div>

<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">For years now I have been wearing skirts as dresses, since it's hard to find dresses in the flowy or structured strapless style in my size. I'm between size 18-22 depending on fit and I usually like to wear things a bit on the looser side. Although I have to say that now I am embracing the body con as well. </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Awhile back I saw someone I follow on Instagram wearing a dress that looked just like the skirts I like to wear as dresses. It was so cute, bright red with pockets and tied in the back. The photo had a ton of comments so I assumed people were loving the look like I do. I was surprised to read so many girls saying they would never wear something that was so unflattering. I couldn't believe it, I read a few comments where girls sounded actually offended by such an "unflattering look." </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Sometimes it's so bizarre being plus size and being part of the conversation that comes with it. From everything I read and see on social media, girls are becoming more and more comfortable with their bodies, which is obviously a super exciting and wonderful thing. But fashion and what is acceptable to wear is still so far behind. Like this dress for instance. It's not body con at all, I remember one commenter being so upset that she referred to this dress as a tent and wondered why the designer would want to hide their body in such an over stated shape. </span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I love fashion as a whole. I'm all for the crop top. I'm all for body con. I'm all for oversized and "unflattering". </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I guess because I'm all for fashion for anyone in whichever way you want to wear it or present yourself. I don't owe me, wearing something "flattering" to anyone.</span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"> I mean seriously, what does that even mean? I just want to wear things that make me happy, even if they do add 10lbs to my look. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I think a lot of girls use the word flattering as a acknowledgement of what they think the flaws of their bodies are. I was talking to a girl I had just met and we were on the subject of what to wear to weddings. She would be considered plus size and told me that she had found a shorter above the knee dress, but made it a point to tell me like three times that it was flattering on her. I couldn't get over the fact that she kept repeating the flattering bit. Why? </span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">I think it comes back to the conversation about space, and how society would like you to believe that women shouldn't take up space physically, vocally, emotionally etc. So wearing a dress that doesn't hug your body in anyway like the red one from <a href="http://www.readytostare.com/" target="_blank">this designer</a>, but probably will make you look a little bigger, goes against what society wishes you to believe. </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">The only thing that matters about what you wear is that you love it and are comfortable in it. That's it, I promise.</span><br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpwPTC_187xNRX76u5eWDB6O9nLa2oadWJiJMewfm7H6yrCBbNjhdwDJROj7LWhEM5NySvDiiLXjLOQcczqWUW6agvx7QB44zl7pzVmfi0fut53eb2IHKP1hak4owjakBrtm9R2JbFT1E/s1600/IMG_1789.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="538" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgpwPTC_187xNRX76u5eWDB6O9nLa2oadWJiJMewfm7H6yrCBbNjhdwDJROj7LWhEM5NySvDiiLXjLOQcczqWUW6agvx7QB44zl7pzVmfi0fut53eb2IHKP1hak4owjakBrtm9R2JbFT1E/s640/IMG_1789.jpg" width="640" /></a><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Flattering has been pushed onto us as what we owe the people around us who may look at us. I've heard girls use the word as a recognition of the flaws they think they're supposed to hide away from others. Or also like a 'stay in your lane' kinda way. Like, I know I'm size 20 and I'm gonna wear this thing, but </span><span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">don't worry it's totally flattering, you don't have to worry about me showing too much or my waist looking even bigger, or (god forbid) me thinking I'm too hot or whatever.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Fashion should be fun and there is no right way to dress, doesn't matter what size you are.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">So just because a ton of girls love the body con, doesn't mean you can't love the "unflattering" dresses too. At least for me my main goal is to have fun and be comfortable in what I wear. And wear it for me and only for me, whether one day I look like a size 18 and the next like a size 22.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;">Would love to hear any and all thoughts on this!</span><br />

I've been watching a lot of British PBS mystery shows set around the 1950's/1960's lately, and oh my god the interior design. <a href="http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/programs/series/grantchester-s1/" target="_blank">Grantchester</a> and <a href="http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/programs/series/endeavour-series-1/" target="_blank">Endeavour</a> are so worth watching if you like good, old school mysteries. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The furniture and bold colors of the walls, floors, pretty much everything in some of the locations of these shows interiors are amazing. </div>

The house I grew up in had tons of wallpaper, but there was one bathroom thats walls and ceilings were covered with green vines and bright bold flowers. My Nana's house has a bathroom as well, that is covered too, walls and ceilings in green, peach and yellow huge flowers.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
So, it's in my blood, I will have floral wallpaper at some point in my life. </div>

I love faux fur (and fur, no lecture thanks! I only own vintage fur that was handed down to me) so very much! It takes any outfit to the next level of dopness.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Lived with one BFF and her fam. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Drove across country with another BFF. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Started a body positive instagram page @ignoretheshould. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Traveled. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Rachel and I got engaged. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I mean so so so much happened in 2015. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I totally neglected this little blog space of mine. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
With all of the change this year, I have at times felt a bit overwhelmed. Admitting that is pretty tough for me. I definitely am someone who is competitive and a no bullshit kinda attitude when it comes to working for something you want. I don't accept being overwhelmed very well. I get annoyed that I can't handle it all. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
That being said, I am now in NYC, "jobless" and working solely on Liebling and Burke and @ignoretheshould, and picking this blog up by its boot straps. Filling my days with Libeling and Burke and hunting for the new pieces for the shop has been exciting and frustrating. I really want to design, but with my budget thats not an option at this point. Sourcing clothes is something I will always do, but out of 1,000 shirts I may find 1 that I believe is good enough to offer the Liebling and Burke girl. Plus clothing is still really frustrating. I want to have the best pieces to offer girls. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
In Feb Rachel and I are traveling to Palm Springs for our friends wedding. I will get to see my friends who I miss dearly, and spend the weekend in Palm Springs. We will definitely be needing that by Feb since were expecting a massive snow storm to hit NYC tomorrow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Now I am off to the thrift store to search for an outfit to wear for the wedding.</div>

Thank the universe for good friends! My bff <a href="http://houseofhabit.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">JESS</a> put this little get away together for us at The Ace in Palm Springs. It really is one of my favorite places to be. We hung out and swam and talked and had cocktails and swam some more. I love spending time with my close friends. I totally realize how lucky I am to have so many amazing women in my life, and I tell them so on a regular basis. I can't wait for our next trip!<br />

In my opinion stripes are definitely a neutral, and I seriously can't have enough! After black, stripes are always my go to! You can seriously wear them with anything. I love this shirt because it looks so great with a pair of black skinnies and booties, or as a dress with sneakers!</div>

Last Sunday my bff, and I spent the day in Malibu hangin at the Mercado Sagrado event. It was such a fun and beautiful day. There were so many fun things for sale, candles, tie dyed onsies, (for adults, yes please!) special oils, prints, blankets, more dresses than I could count, ceramics and so much more. I swear I wanted one of everything we saw. I was super pumped on the idea of having our aura photographs taken, but it was booked all day! Boo. We are def going to the next one because that needs to happen!! We hung on the grass for a while and ate delicious snacks and were inspired by some of the amazing dresses we saw. Baby Hayes also stood all by himself that day! Before we left I finally got the print from Otherwild I've been dying for. All in all it was a great Sunday!<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbDdgBx7NKcUos09UZ5_jlIxLNlcTZ6GRIOhQQF_2XeiKEvt6KENYeLFMer0C6gB3SzxTkUd1jirpc3gecSujBVRpvLR35OVT6RLKqaNI5jUA9SR-ykB7UlQ3ZTJN_h5MhPsVvkGiYMF0/s1600/collage4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbDdgBx7NKcUos09UZ5_jlIxLNlcTZ6GRIOhQQF_2XeiKEvt6KENYeLFMer0C6gB3SzxTkUd1jirpc3gecSujBVRpvLR35OVT6RLKqaNI5jUA9SR-ykB7UlQ3ZTJN_h5MhPsVvkGiYMF0/s640/collage4.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>

I have worked with many people over the years. Like A LOT of people. Some clients I've known for years and some not that long. From time to time with old and new clients my weight becomes the topic of conversation. This happens not by my choice, as I am always redirecting to them. They are spending their time and money with me for it to be about them.<br />
I have heard more times than I can count, "Oh wow Jessica, you look like you've lost weight!" Now from my family, or a few select friends who don't really get it I guess its easier to understand. And I try to answer as kindly as possible, that no, I have not. Weight loss is a personal journey for people. So don't ask! I eat healthy and try not to drink too much wine. TRY being what I do! But no, I have not shed any LB's.<br />
<div>
Coming from clients it is always an odd convo to handle. Honestly I usually lie and thank them for noticing. But what I'm thinking is obviously different. Something along the lines of, "hey, what you just said can fuck right off!!"When did someone else's body become your topic of conversation? Why would you think that saying that to me is a compliment?<br />
When people make comments like this, it feels to me like they are saying they believe there is something wrong with the way I look. They are saying that there is a way for me to be happier, a way for me to be better, because I must have lost a little weight. I'm pretty happy in life with all things! I try to remember that their comments on my weight are more about them than me. I've brought this up to friends before and most are appalled by it. But for the few select friends who just don't<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
get it, they usually respond with, "well I'm sure they meant it as a compliment!" It's not a compliment. No matter how many times I try to explain it to them, if I didn't bring up my weight, no one else should. </div>
<div>
Weight is often tied to people's happiness but not by their own doing. We've been told our happiness and the way we look are mutually exclusive. It's bizarre when strangers, friends and family believe they are helping a big 'ol chubby girl become just a little happier by giving the verbal motivation we must all be craving. And seriously, its just fucking annoying! There are so many other things we could be talking about! Like Beyonce. As of now, I am working on a witty response to people and there chatty ways. I will post another entry when I've done so!! </div>

Saturday afternoon I had an amazing and long overdue convo with one of
my bffs. We talked about our plans for summer, what clothes we are eying
at the moment, and everything else in between. Our convo drifted into
body positivity and how important it is to get to a place of self love.
She recently found a picture of me from summer some years ago. I
remember the day well. I wore a dress I had scored at the thrift store
and my new Kork Ease wedges. We were laughing because I was in a dress
without tights and how ridiculous it was that I never used to show my
legs.<br />

For years I kept my legs hidden. YEARS. But something clicked awhile back when I asked myself why. Really, why? That's so lame, they're just legs. I love walking in whatever city I happen
to be living in, I love to dance into the early morning, I love to
travel and explore; all things that I am so lucky to be able to do with
the help of these legs of mine. But I was ashamed of them. I hid them
away. I made fun of them like so many of us girls do to avoid the risk of someone else doing it before me. I was so mean to myself about my legs. I have my mothers legs. She was almost 6 feet tall and a dancer for
life, she was never chubby. I hated being 5'6. If only I had gotten a
few more inches from her I wouldn't have this squished down version of
her legs. All I wanted were long dancer legs. But like I said, that all changed a few years ago, I got over
it. I decided that I refused to feel bad about myself because my legs
weren't what society had been trying to convince me they should be.
These are my legs and they have taken me on wild adventures and places I
never could have imagined!<br />

The journey of self acceptance I imagine will be a lifelong one as we get older and things begin to change, but it gets so much easier when you realize you are the only one who has to accept you. We are not defined by our bodies and over
and over we are told that our bodies equal our worth. What would happen
if earlier in life we knew that wasn't true. That just being you and
loving yourself not matter what, was enough. If we knew the problem
wasn't our bodies, but what we had been told to think about our bodies.
Think of how much shame and how many tears could be avoided.<br />
This post is a reminder to myself and to anyone else that style, confidence and happiness are in NO WAY size related, and those legs of yours are just fine!<br />
During our conversation I read her this quote I recently found I decided to post it here too. Its a really good one! <br />

"This is a call to arms. A call to be gentle, to be forgiving, to be
generous with yourself. The next time you look into the mirror, try to
let go of the story line that says you're too fat or too sallow, too
ashy or too old, your eyes are too small or your nose too big; just look
into the mirror and see your face. When the criticism drops away, what
you will see then is just you, without judgment, and that is the first
step toward transforming your experience of the world." - Oprah Winfrey<br />

Sunday we decided to have a brunch date and it quickly turned into an entire day date! We brunched and road pedal boats. Then headed to Griffith park to lay in the grass, drink champagne and read. A couple of hours after that we picked up our pups and sat at a bar by our apt. and hung out for the rest of the day. Friends dropped by to say hi and share in a few beers. On the walk home we grabbed our fav dumplings. It was an awesome day filled with adventures and love.<br />

Ok Target, you are kind of forgiven for that played out, seen it before, same old same old Ava + Viv plus size line because of this! Lily Pulitzer plus size flamingo bikini and a palm frond crop top! Thats right, I said plus size!!! Finally one of the visiting Target design houses believes in dressing all women. These are my top favs and if I can only score two please let it be those two! Cant wait until the 19th when the line drops! <br />

Flea markets and thrift stores are amazing places to find things when you're plus size. (I've been having really great second hand luck lately!) You don't feel bad cutting, sewing and pinning things when they cost $3! Luckily this poncho came in perfect worn in condition, no alterations necessary! If only it had been $3, but somethings are too good to leave behind. Threw it on over an old black tee, skinnies and fucked up old converse. PS the hat was another flea market score!</div>

Today I'm sitting at my home away from home, The Line Hotel having coffee, trying so hard not to be overwhelmed. I'm in the beginning phases of opening a plus size shop (online, for now!) and am at the point where I know exactly what I want and want to do. But money. Man why is it always about the money. I like money, I like making it and I like working hard for it. (insert theme song: she works hard for the money! haha) But today my goals seem so far from reach. I have decided to try something I was totally against doing in the beginning. I'm going to launch an Indiegogo. (just like Kickstarter) to raise money for this dream of mine. Next month I film the video and will be going live with my campaign. I have to say I'm super pumped about the chance to spread the word about Liebling and Burke, and more importantly pumped to raise money to be able to bring current, well thought out, plus size clothes to the table.<br />
I have been so over, for pretty much my whole life, plus size retailers, (except for a few) who just don't get it. And honestly, in my opinion who don't want or even try to get it. Like the "new" line from Target, Ava + Liv, um, no thanks. Just because you got some of my fav plus size ladies in your campaign doesn't mean I can't tell you just slapped a new name on your plus size line. You have all the same lame options you did before. Not impressed. I want to change this. I am the person who gets what we need. What we want. I want to dress girls and make them feel badass because they are. I want to pull people out of "well, its not that cute, but it fits, so I should get it" mentality. I want to offer so much more.<br />
So Indiegogo here I come. I know that no matter what I will find a way to do this. It's my dream and its going to happen.<br />

For a long time I shied away from lighter colors, white being the fashion devil to a plus size girl. White was in the same category as horizontal stripes, or so I was always told. But wait, why was I shying away from light colors and stripes? I have no fucking idea. I don't why I let peoples opinions on how to make my waist look smaller or my arms not so big affect my fashion choices. Why does anyone's opinion, but my own, on my waist size matter? I doesn't. I have definitely been over those archaic rules for sometime! I'm loving the all light look this spring with all white leather chucks or my beige Birkenstocks.</div>

Like <b>really </b>love them. Walking into a store that carries plus sizes I usually swoop through the tshirts first. I am more often than not disappointed, so I go directly to the mens section where I can usually find an XXL that's cool. Like in Old Navy, I hate that what you find in the womens dept is mainly deep scooped neck with tiny cap sleeves and some sort of lame print on the front. But shopping on-line the other night I needed jeans and Rockstars from Old Navy are my jam. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
(they fit well and come in array of sizes.) I also found this shirt. Like I said I love them oversized so I was pumped to find this soft, worn in grey tee, especially at Old Navy. I'm pretty sure this one will be in heavy rotation and will only get better with age. </div>

This is one of my favorites! I love when its roomy all the way through. So many for plus sizes are tight up top and loose on the bottom. This one has great flow, and the color is perfect to wear with anything. <br />

I was scrolling through Pinterest the other day and saw a photo of Nicolette Mason (one of my fav fashionistas, who if you don't know, you def should!) wearing a necklace saying those three words. I can't speak to why she chose to wear the necklace, but I can tell you what seeing it meant to me.<br>
<br>
It spoke volumes to how women, myself included, are often viewed in terms of their size. It made me stop and think about it. About actually not being sorry about who I am and how I look. I was at sushi awile back and had to get up and squeeze between my table and my neighbors. I said excuse me while making eye contact like I always do. But I added the shoulder shrug, lingering eye contact, I'm so sorry I'm chubby and my butt is hitting your table sorry. It annoyed me. I had apoligized for my body which is something I don't do, but have been conditioned to apologize for, like most women have. Life is too fucking short to apologize for how one looks. Remember that on a daily! <div><br></div><div>In our patriarchal society it is a common thought that women are not supposed to take up space. Whether that space be with differing opinions, views and especially not a "different" body.</div><div>
<br>
Most of the time I use Pinterest like everybody does, for fashion, jewels, vacation planning and anything else I can think of. But sometimes you stumble onto something amazing like that necklace Nicolette was wearing. And it changes your whole day. It makes you stop for a second and reminds you of who you are.<br>
<br>
Who I am is definitely not sorry.<br>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Every girl has suffered insecurities based on how they feel people in their lives view them. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
We are reminded constantly by the media/society and sometimes even strangers of the things we aren't getting quite right. Especially when it comes to our bodies. The strangers are the ones that always get me. But I guess its a trickle down effect starting with the media. But seriously, why the fuck do strangers think they have the right to comment on the way people look?!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I remember one time in particular when I was out with my friends at a club. We went out onto the patio to take a break from dancing. There was a table full of guys standing next to us who were joking and being funny. So when one of them made a joke about something (I can't remember exactly what it was) I chimed in. I talk to random people all the time, like seriously all the time, so why would this be any different? Well it was. The guys all looked at me and one of them said, "ew, she's fat." That was it, just those three little words. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Ew. She's. Fat.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I was stunned. Did he really just say that? He looked me up and down with a grossed out look on his face. He seemed
shocked, like he couldn't believe that someone like me could dare show up at the club, let alone have
the nerve to talk to someone like him. I remember getting teary eyed and telling the guy he didn't have to be a dick and that I was just being friendly. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I showed up at the club that night the way I always did/do. With my make-up, hair and nails done. With an amazing bag, and with my outfit on point and my attitude to match. Its the way I like to present myself. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
I have come to realize that it sometimes scares people if you aren't what society has deemed beautiful but you have confidence in yourself. Because a big girl like me better never feel good about herself, because that would mean that the beauty standards we have been force fed are a big ol' lie. I think this guy imagined I should have been at home on the couch with my bag of Doritos (which sometimes is a fun Sat night too!) and crying about the way I look. It's like when people tell you you look thinner. Um, ok, thanks I guess. I think people say things like that because they're trying to be nice or up lifting or something. Why is it that people are so quick to remind you of how unhappy you should be, because you are a different size from them? You can be happy and confident no matter your size, it is your right! Why the fuck not be?! </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
This was not the first time a stranger had commented on the way I look, and I'm sure it won't be the last. Remembering its their issue not yours is the most important thing. Whenever something like that happens in your life you always think, oh shit, I should have said this or that. I would have loved to have asked him when he decided the way I look was bad? Marketing, society, media, has told you so. I'm willing to bet you didn't come to that conclusion on your own. I feel sorry for the people who believe you have to look a certain way to be happy and are offended when you defy that. What a small world they are limiting themselves to. Life's too fucking short for all of that!</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Having confidence in yourself and holding onto it can be a struggle, but you deserve to dance the night away and know that you look fucking amazing no matter your size. </div>
