What is True Plus Size?

I was reading Plus Model Magazine online at plus-model-mag.com and clicked on a link to one of their articles entitled:   "Plus size model Robyn Lawley is hot! hot! hot! in Australian Cosmopolitan Magazine" I was excited to see this plus-sized maven who was wowing the Australian market!  I clicked and saw a very pretty    beautiful woman featured in the article!  She's a very striking woman, and I can see the attraction!  But her size left me non-plussed!  I expected to see a larger sized woman staring back at me, but nope, this was one of the photographs of her!

Personally, I prefer to wear leggings with tunics or with dresses that are shorter.  I am more comfortable wearing them with leggings.  What I do not like seeing curvy divas, is a woman in leggings paired with short, tight tee-shirt.  Most time the leggings are too thin and there will be a glimpse of butt crack! Seriously, stop that!  It is always good to look in the mirror at your backside before you jaunt off on your adventure.  Be sure to look at yourself in outside lighting (standing by a window), not just wh...
