Live it Large this Christmas


If you fancy a festive party this year then this may be the one for you. Biggie's is a club specifically catering for plus sized people, and for friends who are size accepting. They put on a number of events each year in the Brittania Basement Bar in Monument, London. The Christmas event is black tie, so a perfect excuse to get dressed up and look gorgeous.

Founder Lil says: 'We have worked hard to build a club with a friendly atmosphere, good reputation and to always provide great value for money."

"I have been asked for the last two years to make our Xmas shin-dig a bit fancy, so this year, I'm doing it. Our Xmas Party has now become our Xmas Black Tie Ball, so guys, dust off your swankiest suits and ladies, it's time to get those ballgowns out of mothballs."

A good number of tickets have already been sold for this event and it is recommend you buy your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment. You can buy them online at Lovingitlarge.co.uk. Need a new outfit? Curvety.com have an amazing selection of womens evening dresses suitable for such an occasion in sizes 16 to 36.

Belle of the Ball


The party season is approaching fast and I am in desperate need of some new dresses for a number of black tie events I have coming up, which is why I was so pleased to see some new styles at Curvety.com.

The style pictured comes in 3 different colours - navy, black and the gold pictured, and is very reasonably priced. It is also unique and really flattering with its overlay which is a nice change when lookng for plus size outfits to wow. There is no reason why you can't be curvy AND the belle of the ball!

Breast Cancer Awareness Month

Breast Cancer Awareness Month began with the 11th Breast Cancer Care Fashion Show which took place at London’s Grosvenor House Hotel. The 23 models featured (21 women & 2 men) have all experienced breast cancer and are at varying stages of recovery.

Dressed in the latest styles with their hair and make up beautifully prepared, the models sashayed down the catwalk to show that there is a future beyond cancer and you can still look good and feel great.

Fashion is an industry which has high public appeal and press coverage so it is a great way to raise awareness to a well deserving charity. This year the special catwalk show raised an amazing £517,000, while an additional £400,000 was raised by QVC shopping channel through online sales during the live airing on their TV channel.

The black tie event was presented by Lisa Snowdon and David Walliams, both of whom looked amazing in their formal evening attire. If you have a black tie event to attend in the near future ou can find suitable plus size eveningwear at Curvety.com.
