It is no secret that Swagga Kings has for years feature plus size models. We have been champions of the plus fashion industry since the day we first published. After being asked to assist a few new ventures that focus on the plus community, a few reoccurring issues keep circling within the plus community that we feel need to be talked about openly.  Late March 2012 SK caught up with an up and coming plus size model Essie Golden. In her interview she talked about 2 issues that SK will continue to explore. Today we will take a peek in to our chat on weight and when is big to big.

I love to people watch, so while traveling for work I took the opportunity to just observe them. People wear anything to the airport in an effort to be comfortable unless they are on business, then they are in suits or business casual attire. Personally, I have to be cute at the airport you never know who you will meet. So what do you wear while traveling? I am glad you asked. I took pictures of a few individuals that got it right.

I want to share one of my latest shopping experiences with you and I’m sure you’ll be able to find yourself in my scenario. A month or two ago I went searching for a dress to wear to church because I didn't want to wear anything in my closet. Normally, I would order a dress from one of the random catalogs I receive to my home. Macys.com and I have a wonderful love affair going on or I’ll try one of the many overpriced plus size clothing websites. However, I was working on a tight budget and didn’t have time to order online.
