Well It Looked Good In The Magazine…So I Bought It!

Have you ever purchased an awesome looking article of clothing online only to receive it and be utterly disappointed? Well your not alone, many high expectations are dashed on the rocks everyday. Fashion expert Sharon Haver explains what goes on behind the scenes of a fashion photo shoot to make that drab piece of fabric “POP” on film.

The truth is making minor adjustments to an outfit with tape and or clips to make it appear to fit perfectly on a model is quite common. In fact in our shop we lovingly call ours clips “magical ipits” (ipit means to pinch). Sharon’s final point is just as stylists use little tricks to make the outfit look good on camera, you can do things to make it “POP” on you too. Click here to find out how. [READ MORE...]

SNEAK PEEK

AREA 51 ZERO Tolerance

“The Plus Size Advocate” is getting set to launch it’s new segment called “AREA 51 ZERO TOLERANCE“. Area 51 has been on my mind for awhile as way to bring awareness to the abnormal size zero stick figure images of fashion and fame. I’m not interested in criticizing skinny people…hey if God gave you the body you have then Rock it, however if you are trying to meet some unhealthy and mostly unatainable size zero body measurement, then this segment is aimed at you.

I know a little bit about the problem as I have someone, shall we say, close to home who practices benge and purge precisely because of the presure she feels to maintain a certain body measurement. For the sake of privacy I will not tell you who it is, but she is an aspiring model with a known modeling agent. When she confessed to me that she had this problem my heart fell and I didn’t really know how to handle it. I encouraged her to just be herself and if she was plus size then she could get into plus size modeling and she just said “NO WAY!” Enough said…you can see the problem she faces and she’s not alone.

What I hope to acheive with this segment is to compare and contrast by way of dry humor, images and articles to show just how rediculous this whole notion of size zero REALLY IS… Basically illustrating the rediculous by being rediculous.

BLOG SPOTLIGHT

Trapped in a Skinny World

I love to read new blogs, I mean the world is so big and there is so much out there in the blogosphere. Those that follow me on Twitter probably don’t realize it but I take the time to read about my new followers bio (if they have one) and I do follow their web links. When I read about a new blog it gives me a since of meeting new people that I otherwise would never get a chance to.
.
Today I want to show a little love to a London based retailer and blog called “Trapped in a Skinny World” by giving them a mention here on HOT FRESH DAILY. I just want to say “I Love the Name” and I LOVE THE ARTWORK”, I mean it really says it all doesn’t it?

I hope you will give them a look and hey, if you like them then maybe you can show some support and give them a “Like” or a “Follow”. See their website here.

Promoting Healthy Models

Size makes no difference when it comes to eating disorders as it can and does affect people of every size. Eating disorders seams to be particularly prevalent in the modeling industry and an initiative is underway to bring awareness to and develop a support system for women in the fashion industry who suffer from it. From DailyVenusDiva.com;
.
“President of CFDA (Council of Fashion Designers of America), Diane Von Furstenberg recently released CFDA’s Health Initiative guidelines. This initiative stems from industry professionals wanting to ensure that models are healthy. Although the guidelines listed apply to those in the fashion industry, I find them to be universal and applicable to various areas of our lives.”

I for one am happy to see someone in the fashion industry taking action on this very dangerous and deadly disorder. You can find the guidelines on DailyVenusDiva.com . [READ MORE...]
