How would you describe your personal style?
I really don't care about all 'the rules' some expert made up about how to dress my voluptuous body. I love dramatic colors, prints and pretty feminine dresses, skirts, bows and flowers in my hair with a vintage vibe to it all. I like to have clothes that make me feel really happy and proud to be me.

I have a weakness for 50's glamour, vintage dresses and I never ever wear pants it's just not me.

The plussize fashion in Sweden is made for elderly women, or at least not women that like to show a little bit of their curves. So I often buy my clothes at secondhand stores and mix them up with things I find in the regular stores. You can wear so much more that you think you can if you dare to try it out and if you are aware of your body and your curves.

What are you wearing today?
Today I'm wearing a white top from Lindex and a black Bolero from Kappahl. The skirt is from Myrornas secondhand and my bag as well. My tights are from Kappahl and my boots from Skopunkten. Lastly my necklace is from Glitter and the flower in my hair I bought at Prickig Katt, which is my favourite store in Gothenburg.
