This is Meagan Kerr

Versatile Workwear

New Zealand fashion blogger Meagan Kerr wears plus size workwear staples from Taking Shape

Finding great plus size workwear can be hard sometimes. As a fat woman with a big bust, button up shirts are not really my friend. Tops are often too short or low cut or made from fabric that makes me feel sweaty. So when I find things that would be good for the office and are actually comfortable, of course I need to share them with you. View Post

Nike has plus size mannequins and some people are mad about it

Nike has put some plus size mannequins in one of their stores, and it’s making some people mad. This basically happens any time there is a positive story about fat people doing anything anywhere. Even when that fat person is a mannequin. Yep, you guessed it, I have a lot of feelings about this. Grab a drink and pull up a chair. View Post

One of the reasons I started my blog was so that I could carve out my very own self-indulgent space on the internet. A place to talk about plus size clothes (rather than the pieces that stopped at a size 16 that I’d previously written about on other sites). A spot where I could be honest and open about my life as a fat woman. Where I could connect with other rad humans about the things that were going on in my life, or were important to me. View Post

Review: Snag Tights

Snag Tights in Pumpkin Spice

I’ve been seeing Snag Tights popping up a lot recently in my social media feed, and I was instantly drawn in by the bold bright colours. Everything I saw led me to believe that these would be the best stockings ever to grace my fat legs. But you know, you can’t always trust what you see online. I’ve seen people raving about products that I’ve bought and they turned out to be duds. People were only raving about them because they’d been sent them for free or were being paid to promote them. And so here I am, your friendly fat guinea pig – putting the tights to the test to see if they are actually the best thing ever. View Post

Advice to my younger self

Last week I turned 35. I know that we are apparently meant to be afraid of ageing (well, that’s what I assume given the amount of ads I see talking about anti-ageing creams and botox and the like), but I embrace it. I’m embracing the adventures I’ve had over the last 35 years, the wonderful memories I’ve made and the wisdom that comes with experience. I’ve got a lot of friends who didn’t make it to 35 so I’m determined to damn well treasure the fact that I am here.

When I was younger I thought I was hot shit. I thought I knew it all and no one could tell me otherwise. I was a bit of an arrogant dickhead to be honest, and looking back I cringe at some of the things I’ve said and done. And so I thought I’d share a bit of advice from my experience with life so far – to my younger self (not that I would have listened), to my teenage stepson, and maybe a bit to my current self? Sometimes I need a reminder, we all do. View Post
