Mother’s Day dinner OOTD. Anytime we go out with my boyfriend’s parents, it involves restaurants and food WAYYY above my pay grade. So I get to dress fancier.

I bought this dress like three or four years ago and I’ve worn it once. It’s kind of a Better Have Perfect Posture dress, since the neckline is a bit low and my bra will see the light if I slouch too much. XD

Outfit of the Day #7 (Buy prints) by Alex Heberling.

Pen, marker, chalk pencil on recycled brown paper.

SO YEAH HEY I started a blog awhile back to post all of my fatshion illustrations and have them in one place for project/portfolio reasons and I’ve been posting them in order, one every Friday.  So check it out and follow?  Some of these are getting kind of old, but I still love them and I plan to return to making more in the future. :)

I don’t really have a good place to display my fatshion art.  I’ve got them in a gallery on DA, but DA’s interface is terrible and I can’t tailor the user experience, so I started a new tumblr that’s going to be my fatshion art portfolio for the sake of the entire project.

I’m hoping to draw more OOTDs in the future.  The past year has done a number on me as far as fatshion goes, what with losing jobs, depression, being sick of my wardrobe, and generally not feeling like drawing attention to my body with my clothing and then drawing the results.

But hopefully soon I’ll be able to come back to my OOTDs.  For now, my previous OOTD arts will be popping up on that tumblr.

Photos from my Fatty Pilgrimage to Re/Dress!  I took photos of everything I tried on, as well.  It was great to finally go the store and meet everyone! :DD  There were big posters of Natalie Perkins’ art on the walls, and I offered to drop off some of my own fatshion art the next time I’m in Cleveland, so maybe my art will be up in the store in the future!

I bought the brown bubbly-printed dress to wear to a wedding I’m going to this fall.  It’s sooooooo cute!  Also bought some leggings with comic graphics printed on them because cartoonist. XD
