WELCOME!!

So great to see you!! Lately as you may know, Entitled has undergone some pretty massive upheavals. It's been more like demolishing, gutting, excavating and rebuilding, and here we are. We have arrived at the most exciting place yet taking in the very vast view!! Now first and foremost, please don't despair - this is not another soft sell blog. I am not here to sell you product and spruik about how wondrous we are are why you need to spend your hard earned cash here! This blog is multipurpose - it is a place and a forum where hopefully, we can find a point of connection to you, and you to us. That perhaps here we can become something more then a website trying to get your business. Any of you who have had personal experience with Entitled pre-online days understand that the crux of the business has always been our personal interactions and "fashion interventions" with our wonderful women who want something more then the "blah, blah coverup-and-be-quiet-fashion" previously delivered to us by the plus size industry. SO as your head designer, I am here to assist you, in just a small way, with your fashion dilemmas as well as help you navigate the rocky a treachourous waters of being woman of fashion fabulousness!
We are going to be looking at how to wear "What not to wear" - and trrrust me, despite what Trinny and Suzannah say, all of the rules CAN be broken and when you can pull it off, you are in a new style stratosphere and you will be know to have - yes- your very own signature. Not important to some, but I am a firm believer that just as we all have our own voice, smile, song or attitude, our fashion signature is something which should be explored, developed and discovered.
For me on my own personal journey, as I started to wade through the complex and sometimes treacherous path to self acceptance, my fashion signature became stronger and more defined in direct proportion to the flexing of my "I-like-what-I-see-of-me" muscle. That muscle has gained strength over time, and now as it is worn in my signature fashion choices, it looks ok :) SO here I am. Soon we will have a situation where you can e-mail me ANY of your fashion questions and/or dilemmas and I will endeavour to answer them to the best of my ability. What to wear to a barefoot cocktail wedding (yes it has happened), how do I looks sensual without exposing my arms (yes that's another biggie), can I ever wear jeans - whatever your dilemma is! It means that you will pretty much have access to your own personal stylist. AND it won't all be about directing you to Entitled pieces - it will be answering any questions and helping you solve any fashion dilemmas or tricky spots you may have. BUT more of that next time.
In the meantime Bellas, thankyou for the read! It was but a small introduction into what is coming and I do hope that you will journey with me on your own journey of fabulousness!
Much love
Your Designer of Fabulousness (Y-DoF - hmmm maybe not the acronym.. ;)
