About Me

Hi! I’m Sarah, a body-positive style blogger. I live in NYC with my husband and our adorable adopted dog #panthepup. I started Curvily over eight years ago when I realized how powerful seeing other stylish plus size babes living their lives happily could be – it literally changed my life and the way I felt about my own body. I wanted to be a part of that and hopefully help others too, so I made a Tumblr page to share my #OOTDs and have been posting ever since.

I’m super into the *community* aspect of the plus community – I absolutely love my community of reader babes here, and I also founded @newyorkcityplus for IRL community events (which will be happening again as soon as it is safe!)

I LOVE fashion, and am all about pushing the plus industry forward. I created the #plussizeplease movement in 2014 as a way for plus shoppers to directly express the demand for more and better options to brands, and I also do work behind the scenes as a consultant to help brands who want to expand their size range best serve plus size customers.

I also aim to be a resource for my readers, offering practical shopping tips, deal alerts, fit information, and features like my #inthefittingroom series to help people see how plus brands fit on a 5’4” plus size body with boobs and a belly. I chat with my readers in Instagram DMs a lot too, so feel free to reach out if you have a specific question or need help finding something!

I’ve lost track of all the times I’ve had people ask me where I get my shorts, and I respond “Lane Bryant!” So I love getting to do a deep dive into the styles they have this season, from trending longline jorts to staples like relaxed cutoffs - and even some fun surprises! Which pair is your favorite? And feel free to let me know if you have any specific questions - my LB shorts knowledge is deep and I love talking about it if it’s helpful for you babes 🥰

I had so much fun checking out the #uohaul furnitu I had so much fun checking out the #uohaul furniture and decor (perfect for college or just adding some fun to your home) before the @katseyeworld show. I’m actually wearing @urbanoutfitters too - a pleasant surprise to find out they have options up to 3XL online (the last time I checked they only went up a very small XL). This top is an XXL and fit perfectly as a full bust size 20. 

The one question I have is: If I was taking pics onstage before their show, did I technically open for Katseye? 🤔😁 P.S. Thank you for looking directly at my camera @meganskiendiel 💕
The word “propaganda” used to evoke flattering The word “propaganda” used to evoke flattering posters of dictators, but it’s a lot more common and a LOT more sneaky lately, especially when it’s coming from unexpected messengers (like celebs and influencers). It’s unfortunate that we have to keep our guard up even while absent-mindedly scrolling, but practicing consuming media with critical thought is always a good thing, so I love this trend. 

As someone who spends a LOT of time on socials, these are some of the biggest lines of propaganda I’ve seen lately, but I know there are plenty more. What did I miss?

#justgirlythings ✨💕😩

Our one day at the pool was severely derailed by a stomach bug, but I managed to put on a suit and sit under an umbrella, and even got in and floated for like 20 minutes at one point, so there’s that! And I think I masked it pretty well for these pics 😁
A road trip where you never have to refill? It was A road trip where you never have to refill? It was possible in the @mazdausa CX-70 PHEV, and the ride was a fantastic one! #MazdaPartner 🩵 I’m used to tiny city cars, so I wasn’t sure how I’d feel about a larger SUV, but it was smooth and maneuverable and handled beautifully over all sorts of terrain - all while having the gas mileage of a tiny subcompact (we drove hundreds of miles without ever getting gas - and still had over a quarter a tank at the end of the trip!!) The storage space in the massive trunk as incredible too - like we could have camped in there! After I drove it, I saw that this model was named Best 2 Row Midsize SUV for Families by US News, which makes SO much sense - you’d be able to fit a whole little league’s worth of stuff in there! I’ll be sharing more in my Stories too, so let me know if you have any questions about the experience (it was my first time driving a PHEV too!)
