Thumbnail image for How to Take a Pretty Licence Photo

Licence photos aren’t meant to be flattering but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t at least try. I renew mine every year mostly because I like that I have the opportunity to take a new photo. As I sat and thought about how I could make “Danimezza’s Drivers Licence of 2013″ super awesome it also dawned [...]

Thumbnail image for Lane Bryant – Fashion Style Off

Full Figured Fashion Week is just around the corner and I can’t even begin to tell you how jam packed the schedule is despite extra days being added this year. Lane Bryant is hosting an event just for bloggers and stylists during the festivities and I was lucky enough to be chosen to attend. One [...]

Aussie Curves – Sequins

I don’t know about you but I window shop online more than I’d like to admit. I’m the kind of person who’ll gaze for hours, putting things in my cart only to leave them there abandoned. I never seem to suffer buyers remorse as I’ve usually agonised over the purchase for weeks. Sometimes a piece [...]

Aussie Curves – Leather

This gorgeous skirt is the very first leather garment that’s graced my wardrobe and I’m not sure I could ever part with it. I’ve had it for about a year and when I wear it I feel expensive and edgy. Sometimes you need that, like when you’re going out to a new place with new [...]

Like a Lady

I like being a lady who luches, especially on a Monday when I’m usually working. There’s something to be said about escaping from normality, getting dressed up and eating delicious food. It’s good for the soul. It’s even better when you do it with friends. The lovely team at Appliances Online held a gorgeous brunch [...]

Nespresso High Coffee

I’ve mentioned before that I’m not a coffee drinker but on the odd occasion where I’ve found myself in a cafe for a meeting and surprisingly a raspberry “Spider” isn’t a fitting beverage, I’ve dabbled with lattes and mochas. So when someone lovely from Nespresso (who also happens to be a direct link to George Clooney) invites [...]

Don’t be Blue

One of the things I’ve loved about Aussie Curves is that every single week not only is my wardrobe challenged but I’m challenged on an emotional level too. I’m not saying that each week I’m experiencing an extreme personal growth breakthrough but it’s enabled me to notice patterns in my behaviour and attitude toward my [...]

I was gifted an LG Optimus G Smartphone and given the option to give one away. I was not paid for this post and as usual all thoughts and opinions are my own. Most of the time when I get invited to attend events I have an idea of how it will play out but [...]

Aussie Curves – Timesaver

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Timesaver

I work from home, usually in front of my laptop in my studio but I still have to venture out and do mundane things like go to the post office, buy bread and pick Aidan up from preschool. Usually I’m juggling lots of tasks at once and they’re all crammed into a day and it’s [...]

I published the 9th issue of my beloved little miniMAG tonight and as the weeks go by more and more people are signing up so I wanted to take a moment to let you to know it’s making my heart sing, thank you! I’m still playing with it, seeing which days suit, what content you [...]

A few Sunday’s ago we attended our first proper little kids birthday party. When we’ve attended in the past Aidan’s been much younger and didn’t move around much so this was a totally different ball game. The birthday girl was adorable in her little tutu and all the kids ran and danced about the hall [...]

Aussie Curves – Heels

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Heels

I’m not really a heels girl. Ok, that’s I lie. I think they’re the most beautiful, perfect posturing things for your feet but they’re also the most painful. I’m not in a habit of conditioning myself into believing that heel induced pain is ok so when I do buy them they usually stay in the [...]

Plus Size Fit

It’s been so nice outside lately and I haven’t been taking advantage of it as I’ve felt so miserable. I’m changing my habits and trying to shake off the clouds. So today Steve hung out the laundry, Aidan ran about with Charlie and I whipped on my activewear and decided to try something new. My [...]

Last year I was lucky enough to be chosen as a Full Figured Fashion Week® Official Blogger on the “Fashion Front“. Not only was it an honour to be recognised but it also put me in a position where I had access to all the events, priority seating and admittance, not to mention I had a pivotal position for [...]

Health should never be neglected and with my big New York trip just weeks away I had a frank talk to my doctor about how I’ve been feeling physically and emotionally. I explained that I was feeling a little lost since Aidan started Pre School and had begun leaning on my old crutch, comfort food. I [...]

Aussie Curves – Pyjamas

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Pyjamas

I’d like to start by saying that I usually sleep in the nude but I feel I’ve been naked enough on the internet for the time being so I’ll show you my go-to PJs set. I’m also wearing a bra and that usually doesn’t happen either. I’m practically a nudist when I’m at home, I’ve [...]

This is my studio wardrobe, not exactly glamorous but it does the job, the majority of my clothes are stored in my bedroom wardrobe. This is an ever evolving space where I keep my high rotation accessories, latest PR garments and new clothes I’ve yet to share in an outfit post. Being able to see [...]

10 Random Things About Me

Thumbnail image for 10 Random Things About Me

One I’m a night owl. An ideal working day for me would be from 11am-6pm. When I was living at home I was sent to bed at exactly 7pm. I’d then hang out in my room until 10-11 o’clock in the dark with a torch writing in my diary. I guess that part hasn’t changed, [...]

Usually I take my outfit photos on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon about 4-5pm in full shade. This weekend I didn’t have that luxury and crammed in my photos at 11am between Aidan’s playdate and my Blog Chic’s blogger meet up event. The lighting conditions aren’t ideal but I just went with it and had [...]

Dress: Topshop Jacket: Roxy Lipstick: MAC Bag: Sportsgirl Shoes: Novo Sunglasses: Ray Bans How old are you and when did you first start modelling? I am 19 turning 20 in a month! I was with a little people’s agency when I was younger didn’t get any work from them so I didn’t keep going with that. [...]

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Androgynous

So I had planned for my Androgynous photos to be taken at the Aussie Curves meet up on Saturday but I forgot how many I’d need and I felt awkward asking Jo to take them for me. I also figured posting just one photo when you’re so used to “the many angles of me” wouldn’t [...]

How could I possibly sum up yesterday’s Aussie Curves meet up in just one post and really do it justice? I don’t think I can but I’m going to try my best. I chose my favourite restaurant Grill’d at Harbourside as they cater for most diets, everyone could easily order their own meals pretty cheaply and [...]

I’m very excited to announce a project I’ve been working on for the last few weeks, “Captured Curves” showcasing plus size models. I personally photograph and interview Australian and International Plus Size Models sharing them here on Danimezza.com. The models are given the opportunity to share their own unique fashion style, personality and message through a [...]

Aussie Curves – Belts

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Belts

Belts have a way of highlighting the shape of a woman. The right belt can make or break an outfit. I have a few favourites that I could never part with and this is one of them. It’s big, bulky and awesome. It feels like a mini corset and to be completely honest it makes [...]

Thumbnail image for Aussie Curves – Body Con

Endo and Body Con, what a terrible twist of fate. I’m just scraping in this week’s challenge as I’ve been completely out of sorts for days. Think PJs, hot wheat bag and Nurofen+ so the thought of slipping into a body con dress had me breaking out into a sweat. Normally I don’t wear spanx [...]

I love activewear, it’s comfy, often bright and makes me feel energetic when I wear it. I’ve shared a few posts about gear I love so when Nicole, one of my lovely readers, asked me where she could find plus size activewear I thought it would be a great thing to expand on. I started [...]
