Summer outfit favorites

Image
Hi all!
Soooo, I haven't really blogged this summer, as I've been super busy with my PhD thesis. No holidays for me, sigh. Also, I injured my ankle and it kind of took the joy out of putting together outifts for a while...
However, I've been more active on YouTube and Instagram, so you should definitely check those out! Speaking of Instagram, I thought I would share some of my favorite outfits I've posted this summer here on the blog, since I know that a) not everyone is on Instagram, and b) the IG algorithm is annoying, so you haven't necessarily seen these even if you do follow me there. 
So, here's what I've been wearing!



I originally bought this rose gold dress from a River Island store in Amsterdam if February, and FINALLY had a chance to wear it at a girls' night in July. I'm obsessed with rose gold and wrap dresses, so this is definitely one of my favorites.





This midi dress is from ASOS and it's by the brand Fashionkilla. I adore the bar…

Things you can wear in the summer: A fat girl's guide

Image
Summer is here and I thought we could all use a gentle reminder of what is appropriate for a fat person to wear when it's warm outside. Without further ado, here we go!

1. Bikinis
Or a one piece swimsuit, if that's more your thing. Your bikini can be high-waisted and modest, or it can be a bit more revealing. The funny thing is, it's completely up to you! If you have cellulite, rolls or a gap between your boobs, make sure not to give a fuck. But remember to use sunscreen!




2. Bodycon dresses
Flowy dresses are nice when the weather is hot, but if you prefer to show off your curves, what are you waiting for? Feel free to skip shapewear because honestly, that shit is horrible even during the winter, not to mention when you're all sweaty. Eww. If someone doesn't like your belly outline showing, or thinks your dress looks unflattering, I'm afraid they're going to have to look somewhere else. I know, I feel bad for them, too. If you're small-chested, your dress…

In case you missed it: Zara and KimCurvy hauls

Image
Hi all,

I realized I hadn't shared a couple of my latest videos here on the blog, so here they are! By the way, thank you to everyone who has subscribed to my channel – it's growing really well at the moment, I just went past the 3K mark in subscribers!

I have a couple of longer blog posts planned for the summer so it's not going to be just videos. Stay tuned. :)

I hope you are all doing well!

Grace Karin Try On Haul (Plus-size)

Image
I was sent some dresses by a company called Grace Karin. As always, all the opinions in the video are mine, and I'm not getting paid to promote the company. They have some cute vintage style dresses and a lot of work-appropriate stuff. They're not an exclusively plus-size brand so you should check them out even if you wear straight sizes. :) As always, feel free to ask me questions about any brands I talk about on YouTube or here in the blog!






Have lovely Sunday!

KimCurvy Plus Size Try On Haul & GIVEAWAY!

Image
This is my first time doing a giveaway on YouTube and I'm honestly so excited! Please check out the video and participate in the giveaway if you are plus-size or curvy and looking for a new swimsuit. :)
Ensimmäinen kerta, kun pääsin tekemään arvonnan YouTubeen! Arvonta on kansainvälinen, joten suomalaistenkin kannattaa käydä tsekkaamassa, jos olette pluskokoisia/kurvikkaita ja uimapuku kesälle on hakusessa. ;)

FalseEyelashes.co.uk review

Info in Finnish below / Infoa suomeksi tekstin lopussa
The products mentioned in the post were gifted to me by FalseEyelashes.co.uk.

I was recently contacted by the lovely people at https://falseeyelashes.co.uk/ and asked if I would like to receive some lashes for a review post. The timing was pretty much perfect, since I had just decided to (temporarily) give up my lash extensions in an effort to save some money. I don't have a ton of experience when it comes to falsies, so I was very eager to try different styles. 



I received four pairs of lashes, some lash adhesive by Revlon, and an eyelash applicator tool.







The first pair I tried were the Ardell Wispies, which are pretty much a must-have among beauty bloggers and influencers these days. They are truly a classic! I really liked them too, although I accidentally put them the wrong way around (what a rookie mistake, haha!) 







If you're a beginner with false lashes like I am, I would highly recommend investing in the eyelash appli…
