Gurl I just wanna know what bras you be wearing cause half the stuff I want to wear I can’t cause huge/sag cups 😂 I don’t know how you pull it off. Any recommendations?!
I get all my bras from Nordstrom, brastop.com or bravissimo.com because it is impossible to find 36L most places. I admit that I NEVER get to wear off-the-she shoulder of any kind to cover my 1″ wide straps, but I find gorgeous tops and dresses. I also buy some and add my own straps to them to cover my bras. 🙂 Gotta lear to sew when you’re curvy!
Hi Kristine, i love your style, it’s stunning, avant garde i tell you. The coolest thing about your blog is that you provide links to which we can refer to for outfit finds. My only issue is that some of these stores don’t cater to South Africa (ZAR) .Do you perhaps know of CITY Chic , it’s an Australian Plus Size brand and their clothes are out of this world, totally ideal for trendy girls like ourselves. Girl , you’re the bom .dot.com!!!!
Hey Zam City, reading this comment, was actually really helpful for me. I’m a plus size girl from South Africa too, always on the look out for inspiring looks. Thank you for sharing.:-)
Wow, I love this BLOG! I am very new to the BLOGGER’s world but this site officially stole my HEART! I am looking to get into the fashion/blogging world and I needed some inspiration and LOOK AT GOD! Lol. The look and feel is clean and refreshing, clear and easy to navigate. Your work and effort is appreciated! I will be starting my blog soon, thank you for the inspiration!
To quote another Lady’s response ” where have you been all my life”. Your post have made shopping easier specially since my cups runneth over. Thank you and keep them coming.
Just stumbled across your blog… Where have you been all my life??? I love your style! You make plus size look freakin HAWTT! I just found you on IG as well. Can’t wait to go through all your posts. To be honest I am so inspired to dress my wardrobe up from your posts. I have always felt a little embarrassed about my size 18/20; especially when trying to dress up in the “newest style trends” But you make it look so easy. Thank you!
Love your blog! Thank you for providing great style inspirations 🙂 I was wondering what your secret is to walking in high heels. As a size 16-18 plus size woman I love high heels but have troubles walking in heels over 3 inches. Especially the dress sandals that have an ankle strap, it rubs at the back of my ankle….. I would very much appreciate it if you could provide any advice on wearing high heels??? Thanks in advance and cheers!
Thanks so much Alexandra! I really appreciate your message. Unfortunately I don’t have much of a secret. I just try to find the most “comfortable” heels for me but they hurt my feet after a while too. I just deal lol. Gel inserts are your best friend
Hi Alexandra, just want to share the trick, which helps me a lot. I always buy heels half size bigger and use gel inserts, just as Kristine mentioned in her comment. This way heels feel much more comfortable, hope it will help.
Your style is the bomb! I’m not plus size, but check your page out everyday for inspiration when pulling workwear. You have mastered the art of color blocking and color pairing.
Hey!!
You’ve been my go-to blog for about a year now, and I think I need to tell you how much your blog means to me. It’s so hard to find plus size fashion, but I’ve come to know so much thing about it thanks to you. Now I’m able to dress fashionably for every occasion, and I feel so confident!! Thank you so much, and keep up the good work!!!
I love your style! I stumbled across your insta and now your blog, and I cant wait to see more inspiration! No to get too personal, but would you mind sharing details on your underpinnings? A great look starts with a good foundation 🙂 Thanks!
Omg! I ran across your amazing style on pintrest! I love the blog!!! I am so in need of the entire outfit you have on in the intro. The white blazer, white shirt and jean. Will you let me know where to snag them from?
Thanks so much Felicia! The post can be found here: https://trendycurvy.com/2017/04/02/spring-sleek/. Not sure if the items are still available since that was back in April but all of the outfit details are listed at the bottom

Hola. Te sigo desde siempre y me encantas, lo malo es que estas muy lejos, aparte de asos tienes alguna otra tienda de ropa que recomiendes que haga envíos a España. que sea internacional. si sabes de alguna te agradecería que nos lo hicieras saber. Gracias, nunca cambies
¡Muchas gracias por seguirme especialmente desde España! Ojalá que sabía de más tiendas de ropa que la nave internacional, pero por desgracia no lo hago. Si me encuentro con alguno, estaré seguro de hacerle saber. ¡Mucho amor!
You have great taste and style!!!! It really is good to know that there are women out here loving there curves just like me(18)…. I LOVE ALL the clothes you have on your blog…. I’m really starting to love my curves more and more everyday. If you don’t mind me asking where purchase your body shapers and bras? I’m a 44DDD, and it’s kind of finding the right fit for my body. My measurements are 44-40-46
I really love how you always look so good effortlessly. I love your style and Im now trying out new styles of dressing up. To be honest I have never been into fashion and caring how I look, my younger sisters however are obsessed with fashion. So, Ive been scrolling on instagram, and i really like your style and wanna adapt it. Tell me, do these companies ship to South Africa as I live there?
Anyway, keep doing what you do because you inspire me
Hi Kristine, I am so in love with how you put the outfits together. I am also size 16/18 in South Africa please advice where i can get some of the outfits

I’m Asian girl weight about 74kg. I used to be smaller but even then i don’t really care about how I dress or look. (more like I’m fashion blind. cuz every time I try to dress up, I end up going over the top and I hate it. so I just stop.) it doesn’t help with my self confidence either.
after three years plain old me. my younger sister stood up and knock some sense in me. she told me to check out plus size blogger to find inspiration. and I found this.
I love your style. its simple yet.. brimming with beauty and elegant. It made me think that, if you can be that beautiful and confident, then I can too.
thanks for sharing. 😉
Thanks so much! I am wearing a plus size 1x however I linked the regular size because its on sale for about $40 less and before Rachel Roy had plus, I could fit a XXL so that would be the equivalent
Hi Kristine love your style. Can you please tell me what plus size jeans to buy that is stretchy and curvy , some Jean make my butt flat instead of round lol, my problem is my thunder thighs , thanks
Thanks so much Giovanna. My favorites right now are H&M+ although I do need to size up, NYDJ sold at Macys and Nordstrom and Old Navy Rockstar jeans. Hope that helps!
