Curvissa Spring/Summer 2013 Collection

Plus-size brand Curvissa have long been a brand I've bought from and more recently worked with on my blog.  They have a fab range of women's clothing in sizes 14-32, and cover a wide variety of styles and tastes.

Curvissa Tamaris Leather Platform Court Shoes

Before Christmas, I was contacted by the team at Curvissa to see if there was anything I wanted to try from their Spring 2013 collection.  I picked out some shoes and then completely forgot all about them as I didn't hear back for quite some time.

A few weeks ago, I had a mystery package arrive.  I love it when that happens - something unexpected arrives and it's really exciting opening the box and finding out what it contains.

The Official British Plus-Size Fashion Weekend 2013: The All-Comers Event (Day Two)

This weekend I attended the inaugural Official British Plus-Size Fashion Weekend (BPSFW).

The event comprised two days of activities: a press event on Friday afternoon, which you can read about here, and an 'all-comers' event on Saturday that was open to anyone who wished to attend.  

The Official British Plus-Size Fashion Weekend 2013: The Press Event (Day One)

This weekend I attended the inaugural Official British Plus-Size Fashion Weekend (BPSFW).

The event comprised two days of activities: a 'press day' and bloggers' meet-and-greet event on the Friday and an 'all-comers' day on the Saturday.  I attended both - the Friday afternoon under my own steam and the Saturday on behalf of the wonderful F&F Clothing.  This post is about the Friday event - my post about Saturday can be read here.

Curvissa Wider Style Wedge Court Shoes

I love wedges.  They add height but feel more secure to walk in than thinner heels.  All of my most comfortable shoes, boots and sandals are wedges of some sort and I am always on the lookout for my next pair.

Wedges look great with all sorts of outfits.  High wedges can look classy, elegant and sophisticated, and lower wedges add a hint of height without compromising on comfort.

I was recently contacted by the lovely people at Curvissa who asked if there was anything I would like to review.  I have been after a comfortable pair of wedge shoes (rather than boots or sandals) for a while so I was absolutely over the moon when I spotted the Wider Style Wedge Court Shoes on the site.  I ordered a size 5 in the black.
