#FASHION LOVE AND MARTINIS PLUS#
A plus size fashion and beauty blog created by Amanda Allison from Fresno, California. (If King Charles wasn't born a royal, he'd probably be one of them). Fashion, Love, and Martinis Fresno blogger Amanda Allison shares her experiences with plus size shopping, plus size fashion, beauty, and travel.
But, through the smokescreen of late nights at the newly-opened Chic Nonna and wardrobes that are ever so primmed and pressed, the trade show holds a significant amount of substance in the world of menswear.įor the past 50 years, Pitti Uomo has been an opportunity for menswear brands to show off their latest collection to menswear editors and buyers. From afar, the four-day trade show looks like a Super Bowl for dapper dandies worldwide except the action takes place on the streets of Florence and the pomp and circumstance certainly eclipse the American tradition.
At least, that's how the men attending this year's bi-annual Pitti Uomo make it seem. This belief inspires me every day to share my style and life experiences to show you are more than the number on a tag to show life is worth living.You can never have too much tweed, ties, or too many martinis. People of all sizes and shapes deserve a life filled with happiness, self love, and fabulous fashion. When I am not blogging, tweeting, instagram-ing, or pinning fashion, beauty, and all things sparkly, I work as a Social Media Manager/Consultant for small businesses. If shopping was a sport, I would place first. I remember playing dress up in my mom's heels (there's proof-search for it on Instagram) writing poetry or divulging my childhood troubles in my journals (boys, schoolwork, and getting grounded! Oh, my!) and sinking myself into a captivating hardcover from the public library.įast forward to present day: I am a late twenty-something, still writing in my journal-sans complaints about boys because I met the Love of my Life-and shopping my heart out every chance I get. On my blog and YouTube channel, you'll find posts about plus size fashion and beauty with the always present message of loving yourself.īorn and raised in Central California, I have always had a penchant for writing, reading, shopping, and fashion. Hi! I'm Amanda Allison, a California girl with a soft spot for fashion and really good martinis.
