To some women, the color white can be a frightening thing. We have been conditioned to think that wearing white is taboo, due to the stereotype that it makes already big women, look bigger. I've never felt this way, the only reason I shy from this color is because I am not the most agile person in the world. Food just magically falls on me no matter how hard I try not to stain myself. But even with that, I continue to wear white and love it. Last Monday was the start of Full Figured Fashion Week, a week long series of events related to all things plus size. One of the most highly anticipated events is the Curves at Sea All White Cruise. Sailing around NY Harbor in a newly upgraded yacht, surrounded by so many awesome plus size women, dress to the nines in their best white outfits. Totally unapologetic and kicking all stereotypes in the butt while looking amazing. It's just so empowering to see so many women, of all shapes, sizes and color, feeling the same way, and totally not scared of wearing white.

As always this event is tons of fun. Everyone is having a good time dancing, socializing, taking pictures and just enjoying themselves. This event also gives me the opportunity to see bloggers that have come down to NYC just for this week. Some I've met from previous FFFweek and some I met for the first time. This event never disappoints and I look forward to next year!

DeleteThank you!
DeleteYou look great! I love your outfit! I hate wearing white. I went to the cruise myself. It took me from the time I bought the tickets, until the day before the cruise to find an outfit. I still don't like white lol but the cruise was so much fun! Wish we would have linked up! I got your blog through a fellow blogger at one of the events.
