My icons tend toward rockers with Joan Jett and Deborah Harry on top. I do love Beth Ditto's fearlessness even if most of the looks aren't for me.</p> <p>Most of my plus size style guides comes from the internet, here are some of my favs:<br /> <a href="http://www.youngfatandfabulous.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.youngfatandfabulous.com/</a><br /> I love Gabi's style. She truly is young, fat and fabulous--and can rock a killer set of heels like I never could.</p> <p><a href="http://www.leblogdebigbeauty.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.leblogdebigbeauty.com/</a><br /> This is in french and Stéphanie is stunning. I like seeing the euro stuff and her photography is a cut above the usual daily outfit blog. </p> <p><a href="http://madisonplus.com/" rel="nofollow">http://madisonplus.com/</a><br /> More newsy than personality driven, a good resource for new products and emerging designers in the field.</p> <p><a href="http://frocksandfroufrou.com/" rel="nofollow">http://frocksandfroufrou.com/</a><br /> I like the touch of silliness in her style.</p> <p>I use bloglovin as my blog reader and I have a bajillion fatshionista ones and I do have Marianna's blog in there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207233 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 21:11:04 +0000 Michelle 207233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am just beyond flattered, ladies! It's a genuine honour to be bracketed with the likes of Marianna and Rosie, not to mention Angie!<br /> It's hard for me to have a style icon per se, but the whole reason I'm here is because Angie's core fashion values resonate so much with the image I want to project. If I could see, I'm positive I'd be blown away by her pictures and aspire to her look even more. </p> <p>There's one plus-size blog I read. It's Canadian, which is great fo rme, but there's still some fun finds and perspectives here. It's run by a former plus-size model named Liis Windischmann.<br /> <a href="http://blogs/louloumagazine.com/14plus" rel="nofollow">http://blogs/louloumagazine.com/14plus</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207227 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 21:02:57 +0000 Angie 207227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kim, I am a highjacker with you!</p> <p>I too was going to nominate Michelle, Marianna and Rosie as our very own style icons with sass and verve. I was also going to say my sis in law Keri who oozes style and has for the 23 years that I have known her: </p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/2010/07/20/london-girl-storms-the-nordstrom-anniversary-sale/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2010/07/.....sary-sale/</a></p> <p>I'm blushing Biscuitsmom - thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207223 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:53:43 +0000 Sally 207223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was a big girl for years but I've lost a lot of weight after having a child. I used to love this website for ideas....<a href="http://www.judgmentofparis.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.judgmentofparis.com/</a> I still like looking at the pictures in the model galleries for clothes ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207222 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:44:33 +0000 biscuitsmom 207222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to 2nd both Marianna and Michelle for their style sense and being able to relate to their size and also Angie for her impeccable style and the way she mixes things, although Im sure she could model a garbage bag and still look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207218 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:35:09 +0000 marianna 207218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, I really like this girl's style:</p> <p><a href="http://bombshellbeauty.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">http://bombshellbeauty.blogspot.com/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207214 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:28:33 +0000 marianna 207214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Kim...</p> <p>I don't really have any style icons (except my mom). I read lots of plus size fashion blogs too but can't identify one blogger who really resonates with me. Angie is my style icon even though I am 10 times as big as her. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207208 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:11:13 +0000 Queen Mum 207208@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hehe.. I want to hijack too. I would like to nominate our very own Marianna and Michelle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207207 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 20:08:44 +0000 Angie 207207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>May I answer this thread too? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/larger-ladies-who-are-your-style-icons#post-207205 Sat, 28 Aug 2010 19:55:25 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 207205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For good or bad, some clothing items look different on a larger body, and some styles just don't work as well. Sometimes I have a hard time visualizing a style when all I see it on is skinny models, or smaller bloggers. </p> <p>I read the T Minus T Plus and Fab Finds Under 50 blogs and find them really helpful for 'recalibrating' my eye, as far as body size goes. But their styles are different from my own. I'm curious, do you have any people who you aspire to dress like, whether bloggers or in the media? </p>
