5 Plus Size Bloggers To Follow // April 2020

#Quarantinelife and being stuck (safe) at home is giving us serious wanderlust so this month we are looking to the West Coast for inspo. 

Our West Coast bloggers are from around Washington, Oregon, and California. We're sharing their style stories plus top tips on travel, motherhood, and skincare.

Lovely in LA

When we think of West Coast bloggers, Rachel from Lovely in LA is top of our list. The plus-size fashion and lifestyle blogger, fit model and brand strategist writes about sophisticated styles for people of all shapes and sizes.  Scrolling through Rachel’s insta feed is giving us serious dress goals and we are loving her chic looks.

April is one of my favorite months, I can’t help but be a little bias because my birthday is at the end of the month (Where my Taurus fam at?) With everything going on though the tone feels somber and rightfully so. Since everything is so heightened right now my anxiety is having a field day especially when I tend to only be in one place I start to ruminate on everything. I was falling into the compare and despair game, not feeling good enough, and feeling overall quite stuck these last few weeks. After talking with friends and recalibrating a bit I wanted to share that it’s ok to not be ok right now. This isn’t a set up where suddenly we’re all thriving from staying home all the time. I always try to stay positive and above all grateful because, but it’s also ok to feel anxious and sad. The two are not mutually exclusive and the best thing we can do for ourselves right now is to just be gentle and kind to our minds and bodies, and if we can be of help to other too. I was holding off on posting this photo but it made me feel and remember the joy of spring. We all know how I love a good bougainvillea and flowy dress moment. If you are also struggling in that way know that I see and hold space for you and am sending as much love as I can your way ♥️
