As seen in… SLiNK Magazine!

We were delighted to see some of our favourite pieces showcased in the latest edition of the plus size magazine SLiNK! We love showing off our lovely clothes - clothes that are beautiful yet functional and in sizes to fit our curves.

In recent news there has been lots of discussion around the use of airbrushed models and even images of models with real faces but computer generated bodies - that is all a bit too complex and we like when magazines keep it real.

This the image featured in issue 4 of SLiNK magazine and the greatest part of this image is that it’s a real woman with real curves - looking absolutely gorgeous oh, and she’s wearing a Marisota dress!

How do I get this look?

Dress from Marisota by Joanna Hope

As you can see in the image above - this dress is perfect for an evening out, subtly sparkling with layered material and delicate beading.

Crystal Leaf Earrings from Marisota

Add a little more glamour with this exquisite crystal appearance leaf earrings.  The crystal leaf design will beautifully compliment the dresses beaded floral and leaf detail.

Silver Sandals by Joanna Hope

Continue the glamour down to your feet with these elegant silver sandals with a 4″ heel. The straps diamanté loop design will look lovely with the floral and leaf detail within the dress. Also available in wide fittings E and EEE.

If you’re like me and like to have a little more arm coverage - try a stylish bolero, shrug or pashmina…

See you soon ladies x

Marisota World and Shop

How exciting! There’s now a brand new section on the Marisota website called Marisota World.

How exciting! There’s now a brand new section on the Marisota website called Marisota World.

On it you can find the latest style news, product reviews, style advice and more as well as information about me and the other Marisota girls.

Plus there’s a “Get the look” feature about the new film “Coco before Chanel”, I have to say I adore the boucle jacket.

Another great bit of Marisota World is the “as recommended by..” section. Good Housekeeping magazine recently did a feature on Marisota and I love that I can keep up with the “buzz” so to speak.

But my absolute favourite is Shop the TV ad.

I had so much fun filming the TV Ad and absolutely loved the outfits, it really rang true with my experience of Marisota, so me and the other girls have each given our “tuppence” worth and contributed to the page.

Obviously my favourite items were those I wore myself, I find it a real struggle to get skirts and trousers in my leg length so Marisota is a God send!

From the smart jeans with their lovely deep indigo colour, bootcut style and perfect leg length.

to the lovely outfit of red pleat neck jersey top, wide leg trousers and weave belt which were all exactly my style!

And finally my absolute favourite the Print Jersey Tie Front Dress, it’s perfect for a meal out, night out or even work with the right accessories.

I think the Legroom High Suede Boots Jane wore in the advert would be perfect

That’s enough from me anyway but keep your eyes peeled for some really exciting stuff coming up this Season!

Curvy women to thank for big brains!

Yes, that’s right it seems that the big and well-developed human brain could only evolve into being thanks to the development woman’s broad child-bearing hips. Without those curves we could never have evolved much past the level of chimpanzees. Or looking at it the other way round, women’s curvy figures came about for the good of the human race. Read the full story here.

I’ve not actully seen any evidence yet that curvy women have bigger brains themselves, but I’ve sure that conclusion is just around the corner.

One woman who loves to celebrate the curvy woman’s shape is Caryn Franklin. Her designer plus size clothing collection at Marisota was created to work with a woman’s curves - not hide them.

Check out these sexy Caryn Franklin plus size dresses and plus size coat from Marisota - now that’s what I call curves!


Plus size party clothes for the season
Ok, so I know Christmas is a few months away, but the party invites have already starting coming. That means one thing… new clothes! I am going to need a new dress, plus size dress of course. My work party is the one I’m looking forward to most, we’re going to a James Bond night at a swanky casino, oooh just imagine the evening dress I can get for that night! I don’t know whether to go for a plus size maxidress, a long dress, a mini dress with a shrug or a black jersey dress with a belt. There’s just too much to choose from, thank goodness I like home shopping. I couldn’t face the shops.
I’ve got a couple of months before I need to decide what to wear and I know just where to start looking… Marisota!
