Hello Dolls! Today I want to bring to you five tips that will make you successful in your industry. Lets be honest competition for a full figured man or woman its much harder than for our smaller counterparts to be considered for a particular career path, so in order to get a fair deal I have devised a few ways to get the ball in our court and climb that "corporate ladder."
Tip #1: know your occasion/profession and dress for it.
Nothing is worse or leaves a bad impression more than someone ill dressed for a meeting, interview, or presentation. You have 5 seconds to make a first impression and unfortunately the first one is always visual. For the full figured person this is a great task to perform, not only do you have to convey neat but capable as well. Some employers (not all) may assume that your size will be an issue when conducting certain tasks, you must prove to them in a non verbal way that you are fully capable of any task they set forth.
Tip #2: Wear confidence like you would your favorite pair of shoes!
When you walk into the room try to be the biggest personality there (no pun intended) not overwhelming or "cocky" but intelligent. As we all know there is a thin line between confident and cocky so try your best not to cross it. Just put in your mind that no one is sexier, more beautiful, or have half as much rapport as you. When this happens you feel more comfortable in your surroundings and that allows your personality to shine through giving the other person a glimpse into what it would be like to work with you.
Tip #3: Personal Style
Stand out as much as possible without overpowering onlookers. Make the other people look as if the were manufactured drones that are fresh from the assembly line. Their generic looks and personality will be no match for you. Just be aware of your surrounding and adjust if need be. Try not to wear strong perfumes or colones, nothing will turn someone off more than to be aquatinted with your fragrance Before they become aquatinted with you.
Tip #4: Be Knowledgeable
Study the company or background of the attendees as much as you can prior. That way you can build a casual conversation with one or a group of people and make them feel more relaxed to talk about a subject their familiar with. This relationship building can lead to networking within your industry as well as open you to new ones. Know your conversational strengths and play them up with full potential and growth; your bound to get the attention of some high profile person, client, or group that can lead you into the right direction.
Tip # 5: Coordination
No matter what industry your in, your ability to be adaptable to any corporate structure is essential. Start a routine and try to build or improve on it as soon as the occasion calls for it. Be the captain of every ship in your port; know what's going on and what their needs are. While doing this also remember that you are not every man or woman and sometime need to enlist the help of others, being a multi-tasked person doesn't mean you have to do it alone.
Remember these fives tips I'm sure they will come in handy! As always stay Beautiful, Confident, and Full figured! Until next time xo!

For years I've had friends of all sizes and plus size women in particular seem to not know how to carry themselves so that they; and people around them are at ease. Have you ever seen a plus size girl with jeans or other clothes so tight that her clothes are screaming LET US FREE! And when they move the discomfort is visible? That is clearly a woman who is not comfortable in her curvy. A woman is truly comfortable all the above occurrences will not happen. 
It really hurts me to see my sisters look as if they're hating who they are when really its who they are that makes them a better woman. Can you name women in the public eye who are curvy and beautiful? And in being comfortable in their own beauty has changed the way society views CURVY women?
