Hi gals,

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I am participating in a closet sale THIS SATURDAY called New York Curvy Closet. The event is sponsored by Simply Be and features the closets of Chastity from Garner Style, Alissa from Stylish Curves, Meg from Little Lime Dress and Cece from Plus Size Princess. We are going to have tons of items in a range of sizes and styles.

There's still time to buy your tickets here. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/nycurvycloset-a-plus-size-shopping-event-tickets-12597081209

They are almost all sold out, so don't wait.

Looking forward to seeing you there!!

I can't even tell you how much fun I had this week at the opening of Lane Bryant's 34th street store on Thursday night.

The store, which has 2 floors, including a Cacique boutique, is absolutely beautiful and modern and looks like everything you'd want from a flagship store in the Herald Square area in Manhattan.

There were tons of amazing people there, including Plus Model Magazine, Jay Manuel from "America's Next Top Model" and Wilson Phillips' Carnie Wilson, who was the sweetest woman ever!

I took tons of photos, so I'll keep the text short, but you should definitely check the new store out. It's SO fabulous.

My outfit details are below!

Happy New Year! This has been a hugely transformative year for me, and it marks my first FULL year as a blogger. I've loved every minute of this journey and I hope to continue blogging for a very long time. I love interacting with you all and you guys have made this one of the most amazing years of my life career-wise.

Personally, I've been incredibly blessed as well as I've strengthened friendships, accepted the proposal from the love of my life and taken back control of my health. No year is perfect, and I've had my downs as well, but overall, I am SO grateful for this year and the way that it has shaped me.

I looked back through my posts to find my most popular, and some were surprises, while others were not. So without further delay, here are my top 10 most popular posts of the year:

The great thing about meeting and befriending other fabulous bloggers is that they snap and share tons of extra photos!

In all seriousness, the women I met this weekend were just so lovely to me and all of us really bonded over our collective love of fashion and celebration of women of all sizes. I think my favorite part of doing this is getting to meet people and hear their stories.

I got the chance to meet some of the bloggers who have inspired me, some of my beautiful amazing readers, other models and stylists and of course, fabulous fashionistas.

Thank you to all of you who shared a photo with me. I really appreciated it. Check them out below!
