We love these <a href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/curves-360-by-nydj-slim-ankle-straight-leg-jeans-regular-petite-plus-size-aquino/5118541?origin=coordinating-5118541-0-2-PDP_1-recbot-also_viewed&amp;recs_placement=PDP_1&amp;recs_strategy=also_viewed&amp;recs_source=recbot&amp;recs_page_type=product&amp;recs_seed=4889521">slim ankle straight leg jeans</a> as worn by Jenna Kutcher, grab yours at Nordstrom.</span></p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Our final tip for getting the California dreaming style is to shop local. Support independent brands and sustainable fashion.

Cali babes are loving the ethical fashion from Reformation and the extended size range s available up to a size 22!

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>I don&#8217;t really wear makeup but, my favourite beauty/skincare product of all time is Aloe Vera! It&#8217;s cheap, 100% natural and has SO many uses and is amazing for your skin!</div>
<div></div>


1. Best beauty product of all time?

<div>Sneakers over heels EVERY day! I have been collecting sneakers since I was 16 and I only wear heels if it is an absolute must. I think whoever invented heels must&#8217;ve been a little bit crazy.</div>
<div></div>


2. Sneakers or heels?

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>I think my hair looks better when it&#8217;s done, but I&#8217;m SO lazy when it comes to hair! I always plan to do it properly and end up putting it into the same old messy bun every day.</div>
<div></div>


3. Hair done or messy?

<div>Can I say both? It just depends what mood I am in, I love sweet and savoury, but if I HAD to choose I would probably say savoury because that way I could have a chocolate pastry lol.</div>
<div></div>


4. Savoury or sweet?

<div>Personally I prefer bikinis! I think it&#8217;s because I always thought I couldn&#8217;t wear one due to my size. So now when I do wear one I feel so free and liberated! Kinda showing a middle finger to societies rules!</div>
<div></div>


5. Bikini or onepiece?

lollyxm plus size fashion

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>My best style tip would be add a belt to your fit! It can take a basic frumpy outfit to the next level by giving you a silhouette and also gives you a chance to experiment with cute accessories!</div>
<div></div>


6. What's your best style tip?

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>My favourite brand right now is probably <a href="https://www.insyze.com/browse/womens-clothing/">Fashion Nova</a>, just because I feel like they are the only brand that have clothes which are truly my style. Everything is so fashionable and affordable and i&#8217;m all about being boujee on a budget!</div>
<div></div>


7. Favourite clothing brand and why?

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>My tips would be, don&#8217;t be disheartened if you feel left out when shopping at certain stores. The lack of clothing available to us only gives us a chance to get more creative. Shop at thrift stores, try out mens clothing and style it up!! Accessories are your best friend when you&#8217;re making do with what little you can find!</div>
<div></div>


8. Any shopping tips for plus size women?

<div>Untouched! I used to heavily edit my photos to the point I looked like a different person! Now the only retouching I do is fixing the lighting etc if the picture quality is bad!</div>
<div></div>


9. Facetune or untouched?

<div>I would say, stop worrying and living for everybody else. I used to live my life telling myself &#8220;when I lose weight I will do this&#8221; stop waiting to live your life! Start living now. Work on what&#8217;s going on inside you and it will all fall into place. Find what makes you feel negatively about your body and remove it from your life. And remember, social media ain&#8217;t real!!</div>
<div></div>


10. Advice for plus size women who are struggling with body image and confidence??

<div></div>
<div>I have toooo many clap backs, but honestly recently I&#8217;ve realised the best clap back I can give someone is love and light. Anyone who speaks negatively about someones body clearly has issues within themselves. So&#8230; though you may wanna go off on a b*tch, just remember boo she&#8217;s clearly going through it! Send them some love.</div>
<div></div>


11. Best clapback when someone comments negatively on your size

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>I think the term <a href="https://www.insyze.com/blog/24-amazing-style-tips-for-plus-size-women/">plus size</a> is kinda silly. It separates us from everyone else and keeps a sort of stigma around us. I wish we could all just scrap the labels and let everyone and every size enjoy fashion.</div>
<div></div>


12. What's your opinion on the term 'plus size' - should the fashion industry use it?

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>I get so many messages from followers I couldn&#8217;t pick just one! But it still amazes me when people message me to say that I have changed their lives! I am just documenting my journey on social media so the fact it&#8217;s able to help people who are going through what I was going through is just unbelievable to me! I&#8217;m so glad I can be something positive for my followers.</div>
<div></div>


13. What's the best message you've received from one of your followers on Instagram?

<div><span class="im"><br />
</span>I feel sexy all the time! When i&#8217;m naked, when I get new clothes, when I&#8217;m in the shower! I&#8217;m comfortable in my body and i&#8217;ve finally come to the realisation that I can be fat and sexy at the same time.</div>
<div></div>


14. When do you feel most sexy?

<p><span class="im"><br />
</span>I would love for my YouTube to grow as it&#8217;s been a goal of mine since I was a little girl, I just never had the confidence to start it! I&#8217;m currently working on starting my own business and I wouldn&#8217;t have been able to do that if my Instagram and YouTube didn&#8217;t grow so I am extremely grateful! I would love to just keep growing my social medias and helping as many people as I can by sharing my story!</p>

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Whether you wear <a href="https://www.insyze.com/browse/womens-leggings/">leggings</a> with a tunic, underneath a dress or as pants; finding a great pair of leggings can be a struggle for all people, no matter what size you are. But when you&#8217;re plus size, it can be so much worse!</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Some of the most common problems that women have with leggings include:</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">You can literally see EVERYTHING</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Everyone has cellulite.  No really, they do. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cellulite is fine, but when you&#8217;re wearing leggings you kinda expect to have complete coverage of your butt. However, wear the wrong type of leggings and EVERYTHING will show through them. Cellulite, your g-string &#8211; basically all visible to the world through a semi-opaque piece of cloth</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It&#8217;s why the number 1 and more important thing to think about when you are buying a new pair of leggings is the fabric. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Thin cotton leggings might be a great choice for the summer but can be quite see-through and a total nightmare if you suffer from <a href="https://www.insyze.com/blog/ultimate-guide-stop-thigh-chafing/">thigh chafing</a>, which can mean that you’re reaching for your sewing kit on the regular. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Instead, look for spandex styles. These thicker fabric leggings will give you more support, are totally opaque and will last longer too.</span></p>
<h2>They keep falling down</h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another really common problem with wearing leggings for the fuller figure is that they KEEP FALLING DOWN! And you end up having near constant wardrobe malfunctions. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So how do you avoid this?</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Easy, invest in high waist. These types of leggings or styles with a wide waistband will stay put all day long letting you get on with your life without worrying about your outfit.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Some of our top picks of the best leggings for plus size include:</span></p>
<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Spanx </span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A lot of you swear by Spanx leggings including Alexis Joann of <a href="https://styleeatsleeprepeat.com/">Style Eat Sleep Repeat</a> </span></p>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Zella</span></h2>

<h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">90 Degress By Reflex</span></h2>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Another fan favorite are the leggings by 90 Degrees By Reflex. These super affordable leggings come in full length, capri and ⅞ lengths and some styles even have pockets!</span></p>

The best leggings for plus size

stylish sassy and classy

<p>Who doesn't love wearing leggings! Whether you're straight size of plus size, leggings are super easy to wear, comfortable for any activity and great to compliment a short dress or that cute top you love. Sometimes leggings get a bad rep, but we completely disagree - if your style is laid-back, or you want a low-key outfit that's comfortable to run around and do errands in then why wouldn't you wear a pair of leggings.</p>
<p>But just because we love leggings, doesn't mean we love ALL leggings. We're sure you've experienced this as much as we have - leggings that are see-through, rip easily or are just baggy in all the wrong places! We spoke to plus size people on Reddit, Facebook and of course, our Insyders for their recommendations on what the best everyday leggings for plus size are as well as some of the most common problems they have with leggings and how you can avoid them. </p>

<p>One thing that really gets to us about the fashion industry (there are a few things actually) is,  a lot of the time, we can’t wear the same clothes as our friends or some shops *cough* TopShop *cough* don't even do our sizes!</p>
<p>Or, we have to go to the part of the store labeled ‘curve’, ‘plus, or ‘inspire’ which apart from anything else can make us feel excluded and even marginalized. </p>
<p>Size inclusive brands want to fix this by giving us clothes ranging from size 0 to size 30 in the same styles!</p>
<p>In our last blog, we looked at new plus size brands that are so hot right now, but this time we want to look at the fresh styles of up and coming size inclusive brands. </p>

<p><strong>1.  You were recently featured in our Top 100 Plus Size Bloggers! Congratulations! Can you tell us about why you started your blog in the first place?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>Thanks so much for including me! In 2011 I was starting to question everything I was told about living in a fat body. After hiding myself for so long, I decided I wanted to live boldly. I started experimenting with my style and wanted to share it online, as part of both my own journey to self love but also to inspire others.</div>
<div></div>
<p><strong>2. Who/what are your biggest style inspirations and why?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>My style is always evolving but there has been a significant shift in the last year in my presentation. I&#8217;ve leaned into my masculine side and one of my biggest inspirations has been fellow Libra Jeff Goldblum, for both his amazing use of patterns and his incomparable swagger!</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p><strong>3. How important is fashion as a means of identity as a non-binary person?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>Fashion is incredibly important to me as it relates to my gender because it is a vital part of presentation. I&#8217;m lucky as a mid-fat person that I have access to so many types of clothing from both the men&#8217;s and women&#8217;s sections. My non-binary friends who are sizes 5X and up don&#8217;t have access to the fashion they want to wear, and I really want that to change.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<div><img loading="lazy" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-2429" src="http://blog.insyze.localhost/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Maggie-McGill.png" alt="Maggie McGill " width="1280" height="720" srcset="https://blog.insyze.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Maggie-McGill.png 1280w, https://blog.insyze.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Maggie-McGill-300x169.png 300w, https://blog.insyze.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Maggie-McGill-1024x576.png 1024w, https://blog.insyze.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Maggie-McGill-700x394.png 700w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" /></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p><strong>4. One thing we&#8217;ve thought about recently, is how gender-norms are a societal construct. E.g with colors &#8211; &#8216;pink for girls and blue for boys&#8217;. What are your thoughts on this and do you avoid wearing certain clothes or colors as a non-binary person?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>Gender norms suck. One of the most beautiful things about my non-binary experience is that I&#8217;ve felt comfortable to experiment with my presentation because I no longer feel bound by gender norms. You asked if I avoided wearing certain colors or cuts but it&#8217;s really the opposite! Everything feels fair game!</div>
<div></div>
<p><strong>5. What is the biggest misconception people have about you?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>That I&#8217;m tall! I think my big personality makes me seem taller. Also that blogging is my only job. I actually work a full-time job at a nonprofit on the fundraising/communications team.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p><strong>6. Can you give us your favorite three androgynous style tips for plus size people?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<div>1. Find pants that make you feel amazing and buy them in every color.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>2. Accessories make a big difference, use them wisely.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>3. You get to define what androgynous looks like for you.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote>
<div>Perfection does not exist. And you can love and want and have a full life in the body you are in right now.</div>
</blockquote>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p><strong>7. What are your favorite plus size brands and why?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>I love Eloquii for their amaze suiting options, can&#8217;t wait to be able to afford them. I mostly shop in the plus sections of stores like Target, Old Navy, and ModCloth because those are all in my price range. I also love ASOS for funky styles.</div>
<div></div>
<p><strong>8. How do you feel about the Body Positive movement in 2019? Has it changed for you?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<div>The body positive movement has warped so much it&#8217;s nearly unrecognizable. It&#8217;s been co-opted by straight size white women, turned into a mantra of self love, and is far from its original, radical purpose. I use the term &#8220;body liberation&#8221; now because bopo no longer serves me.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<div><strong>Body liberation</strong> feels more accurate with the mission of freeing EVERYONE from the outside expectations of what a body should look or how a body should function.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p><strong>9. What advice can you give to someone struggling with their identity and body issues?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<div>Sometimes they are connected, but not always. In safe spaces, explore your identity. Play with your appearance, use different pronouns, follow people of all gender identities and expressions and question everything.</div>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>Body issues are so personal and it takes a lot of self reflection to get to the root. I&#8217;m still unpacking the trauma I&#8217;ve experienced living in a fat body. But I&#8217;ve found comfort in the fact that bodies are so diverse. Some people are fat and will always be fat, and that&#8217;s okay.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<div>Perfection does not exist. And you can love and want and have a full life in the body you are in right now.</div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div></div>
<p><strong>10. Lastly, if you could teleport anywhere in the world right now &#8211; where would you go and what would you pack to wear?</strong></p>
<div></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div>I would love to escape muggy DC August and go somewhere cooler. I&#8217;ve always wanted to visit Brighton, England. I would pack all of my cozy sweaters, jeans, and boots and go for chilly beach walks at sunset.</div>
<div></div>

<p>We discovered Maggie McGill on Instagram in the Fall last year after stumbling across a stunning photo of Maggie in a pumpkin patch. We immediately started following Maggie's account and featured them in our Top 100 US Bloggers To Follow last month. Maggie's quirky cool androgynous style provides major fashion inspo for people of all genders, including non-binary folks like herself! </p>
<p>Maggie doesn't adhere to gender norms when it comes to style and is also super inspirational in championing positive body image; so we jumped at the chance to interview them and ask some of our burning questions on style, identity and if the Body Positive Movement was one she was still a part of. </p>
<p>We've used both 'she' and 'they' as the pronoun to describe Maggie in this intro because as per her Instagram profile, it's "She/they but you can call me daddy ?"</p>
<p>What a badass! Here's our interview with the super awesome Maggie McGill:<br />
