Introducing She Might Be

She Might Be is a brand new plus size magazine and community that I am so proud to be a part of. It is the brain child of the fabulous Georgina Grogan of She Might Be Loved, and the contributors are all plus size bloggers!

I'm one of 13 writers, sizes 16-28, and our ages range from early 20' to 50s. We have a great mix of different bloggers and experiences who can all bring something unique to the table.

I have three articles live at the launch which is so exciting. The feedback on my first article, which was actually the first one on the entire website, has really blown me away and been so touching.

My first article is all about reclaiming the word fat, you can read it here

I would love to hear what subjects you want me to write about. Is there a brand you are curious about? Is the latest buzzword or hashtag really getting on your nerves? Tweet me and let me know!

Next up is an article about photography and the plus size body that you can read at the link below

And finally, '#SheMightBeDiverse', all about the lack of real diversity in body positive campaigns. We got the hashtag trending on twitter! Read it here http://shemightbe.co.uk/shemightbediverse/

We will have articles about fashion, beauty, lifestyle, hot topics and so much more. We were trending on twitter on the first day of the launch! How cool is that?

I am so proud to be a part of this magazine, and so proud of Georgina for creating such a positive space! I can't wait to see what comes next.

Much love,

Scarlett and Jo with She Might Be Loved

EDIT - While the quality of their clothes isn't in doubt, I cannot encourage anyone to buy from Scarlett & Jo or support their business for ethical reasons.

Yesterday I travelled to Evans in Meadowhall to a meet and greet with the lovely Georgina of She Might Be Loved with Scarlett & Jo. I thought it would be a great opportunity to meet some fellow plus size bloggers in person and ogle some gorgeous clothes, and I was right!

How awkward can I actually get? Apparently more awkward every day!

Scarlett & Jo had brought in most of their collection for the day and I fell totally in love with it. Gifi, the lovely creator of Scarlett & Jo really knows how to design for plus size women, and was a lovely fella to boot, it was a pleasure to get to meet him! He so cares about what he is creating, and is so passionate, which is wonderful.

Scarlett & Jo Teal Blue Fit & Flare Mini

I tried on so many pieces, why not when they are in the store! And quite honestly, I could have easily bought of all of these had I had the money. The fit of the dresses is just great, the material is such good quality and they are so lovely! I opted to buy the teal blue fit and flare mini dress. Scarlett & Jo had very kindly offered us 20% off on the day, even on the current sale prices, so it was a complete bargain at £20! The red rose prom dress is definitely next on my wishlist. The mesh sleeves are so different and fun, and I love the neckline. The feather tunic was shorter than I'd usually wear, but I felt so cute I didn't care. And that wrap dress, just wow. Also available in blue and mint green, it's just divine.

It is often mentioned how great the fit of Scarlett & Jo are for the busty lady, and as a plus size gal who doesn't have a sizeable chest, I have to say, Gifi has created pieces that really help give the illusion of a chest and help show off what you do have in the best way!

Babes!

Of course I couldn't resist selfies with the babes I met on the day!

With Kellyisablade (doesn't she remind you of Garcia from Criminal Minds? What a doll!)

With the incredible Leah of StyleXL. Just, wow, such a pleasure to meet her and see how passionate she is.

And with the adorable Siobhan of Rock n Roses.

I felt like a giant all day. Sometimes I forget that being 5ft 11 is kind of unusual!

I absolutely love this selfie of a bunch of us!

Evans had kindly made us up these fab goody bags. I adore Barry M as any of my readers will know, so was thrilled to see so much Barry M in there! I also love salt spray, so I'm excited to try this out.

A few of us popped for a drink afterwards, sadly I couldn't stay for the meal as I had an event to get to last night, but I wish I could have. It was such a fun day, and I am so glad I went. What a lovely bunch, and what lush clothes!

Much love,
