" Big Girl in a Skinny World"

In Marie Claire magazine I came across something that I loved and felt was very rare as a topic being discussed in magazines. So many magazines have so many discussions about how to lose such in such pounds in how many days or about diet secrets. Not to say that this is bad because I believe we should always be searching for a way to be healthier in a time where it is so easy to be hooked on fast food and in a state where many of us are overweight. I felt very happy to see that Marie Claire highlighted Ashley Falcon (a former intern) in her column “Big Girl in a Skinny World”. Falcon’s column focuses on what ladies who are plus size can do in a world that doesn’t have as many options as let’s say their skinny counter parts. She gives fashion tips of what to wear as well as where exactly a person can go to find these items. Also on their website they show her column and a link to her blog where she express more about what “ big girls” can do when trying to look fashionable. I just really love how Marie Claire decided to step outside of the box and focus on those readers who sometimes go unnoticed.
