Cute shoes. I am not a fan of the shorts.
August 23, 2011 1:12 pm
I love her blog. She definitely has a point of view. Which is so important in fashion. You can look at her pieces and see how they go with one another. How they fit her style. She was one of the first Plus size fashion bloggers I discovered.
August 23, 2011 1:27 pm
I like her style–minus the shorts, but the nose ring is scaring me.
August 23, 2011 1:34 pm
Claire, I beg of you to institute the rule that submissions with denim cutoff shorts are automatically ~DENIED~
I repeat that denim cutoff shorts are the exact opposite of fashion..so tired, so overdone and never ever flattering!
August 23, 2011 1:39 pm
Love her last oufit! Kudos to Tiffany for her unique style!!
August 23, 2011 1:43 pm
I like those pink Docs!
August 23, 2011 1:55 pm
Tiffany! I think she’s awesome. I’ve been following her blog for a while. I don’t always necessarily like everything that she wears (–as I feel with almost every fashion blogger), but I think she is inspiring and a breath of fresh air. I’m so glad to see her featured here. Go girl!
August 23, 2011 2:04 pm
she’s a sweet girl!, but she wears some of the most ill fitting clothes. The outfits feature of some of her better fitted clothing and I see why they were picked!
August 23, 2011 2:05 pm
The DOCS are sickening, but that mixed print jacket? Very early 90′s and not in a good way.
August 23, 2011 2:08 pm
she is very dwayne wayne circa 1989 which makes me smile
August 23, 2011 2:09 pm
I’m not a fan of all her looks but clearly they girl has fun with fashion and her style is pretty cool. I’m in Love can I say again LOVE with that top hat and small John Lenny glasses outfit. I will definitely be doing something similar soon.
August 23, 2011 2:09 pm
i’m digging her style on everything except the eyeware – i’d love to know her secret to matching which lipstick to which outfit!
August 23, 2011 2:13 pm
maaaaan, those doc matens take me back! i love the tights/short combo. i’m going to rock it one day…one day!
August 23, 2011 2:39 pm
i loveee her style !
August 23, 2011 2:42 pm
Just no. I love some of her pieces though. That colorful shirt/cardigan is giving me all sorts of life
August 23, 2011 2:43 pm
Gimme those pink docs!
August 23, 2011 2:45 pm
Y/day everyone went IN on the pretty girl with cute clothes and the amazing shape. I c most people commenting love the over the top, non-flattering, makes me cringe getups. This is not style. Its trendy (but 90′s trendy) plus size forever 21 which is never good. I am truly SHOCKED…smmfh
August 23, 2011 3:01 pm
Cute girl they only outfit I like is the yellow shirt and leggings with the pink Doc Martins.
August 23, 2011 3:14 pm
I actually like everything BUT those damn Doc Martins!!!!! I can’t, I won’t, I WILL NEVER like those awful shoes. But I can definitely sense she is a fashion forward young lady. Bigs up!
August 23, 2011 3:17 pm
*Doc Marten
Just went to the blog, she had the damn boots in leopard too *stabs myself in eyes*
August 23, 2011 3:33 pm
Naw but forreal, for all you ppl that voted Hot you love her style…what’s so Hot about this shit?? Out of all the fashionable chicks in Chicago..you picked somebody who uses curtain drapes to make a jacket, stockings, and Doc Martens…Really?? If this is fashionable I’ll eat my shirt…
August 23, 2011 3:37 pm
The first pic reminds me of Boy George circa the Culture Club era. Love the Docs; they never go out of style.
August 23, 2011 3:40 pm
I LOVE TIFFANY I MAY NOT WEAR SOME OF HER OUTFITS HOWEVER I CAN I DEFINETLY RESPECT HER FASHION. SHE HAS A VOICE AND HER FASHION PAINTS A PRETTY PICTURE SHE ROCKS!
August 23, 2011 3:44 pm
I’m on the fence about all of her looks … I’m not sure what to say so I’ll keep it movin to visit her blog!
August 23, 2011 4:00 pm
I’m certain that Tiffany has a warm and playful spirit, however, her fashion sense does not appeal to me, but that is the reason why she’s here today, fashion is not about pleasing the crowd, but most importantly about pleasing oneself;-)
August 23, 2011 4:01 pm
I have those hot pink Doc Martens! Girl, I wanna break em back on now…very Beth Ditto “yeah I’m big to match my personality” style.
August 23, 2011 4:01 pm
I agree with Brittany. While I applaud her adventurous style, the fit is the problem. Her clothes need to be a bit more tailored to her physique.
August 23, 2011 4:05 pm
@Sticky-n-Sweet that’s who she reminds me of! I could put my finger on it but yep, she is Beth Ditto-resque.
August 23, 2011 4:06 pm
Im not a Doc Marten fan but I like the pink boots. I believe that she has her own style, most definitely. She has the swag and confidence to wear what she does :-)
August 23, 2011 4:19 pm
She’s killing it!
August 23, 2011 4:23 pm
I like the docs, the nose ring, and the unapologetic style!
If rules are ever set in place on what clothing items stylers can submit, I will stop reading. Fa sho.
August 23, 2011 4:29 pm
I CANNOT get past her weight. As for her style ive seen way better on here and not digging anything
August 23, 2011 4:40 pm
Once again, I come on here and I see comments about a fashion bombshell’s weight when I’ve seen plenty of thin people look a mess. Weight does not define how fashionable one is. I personally wouldn’t rock the outfits she does, but that’s what I like about Tiffany. Her style fits HER. Everything doesn’t work for everybody or else we would all look and dress the same!
August 23, 2011 4:41 pm
I like her and she turned it! She has her own style its fun and she doesnt look like a fashionsheep being led to the slaughter.. I applaud her even more for being plus size and turning it!
August 23, 2011 4:42 pm
I admit, at first I couldn’t look past her weight. The fashion displayed in these pics is nothing special. But then I checked out her blog.. and I’m loving some of her outfits!
August 23, 2011 4:42 pm
Oh, I had to come back and say that I like certain pieces in some of her outfits and I really think the Doc Martens are her signature piece. It works for her. Just like cardigans are my signature piece. I wear them ALL the time! LOL
August 23, 2011 5:08 pm
sorry but no. her clothes are ill-fitting and really do her absolutely no justice at all. we’ve seen plenty of larger ladies in this section who were ROCKING their style. sadly, this young lady is not one of them.
August 23, 2011 5:10 pm
Well said Jaida.
August 23, 2011 5:19 pm
Nah I’m not feeling it.
August 23, 2011 5:32 pm
not mad at her at all….people kill me though..just because someones style is not your own style doesnt mean they arent rocking their look. Just sayin. I wouldnt rock most of these looks but what I love about this site is the confidence these ladies have..and the guts for having a submission. Be blessed all..
August 23, 2011 6:09 pm
i’ve never commented on a bombshell of the day before. i had to say props for featuring tiffany! i love her and her style!
August 23, 2011 6:12 pm
She works it and that’s the point of style, you can wear Gucci and just not work it, period. As for her weight get over it, if she feels fine then that’s that.
August 23, 2011 6:34 pm
She is definitely cute and the way she put her outfits together are hits and misses..but on her blog it’s a different story! Her style just takes you over, she is fierce and I love it. I admire her style and I am a size 25. Doesn’t matter your weight, her confidence made it work for her.
August 23, 2011 6:58 pm
i love how people keep saying doesnt matter her weight. i see there are a lot of overweight people up in here. would i be surprised. 8 out of every black women is grossly obese. shhhhhhhhhh weight matters.
August 23, 2011 7:00 pm
i agree those cut off shorts just horrible. if you are overweight please do not do cut off. its gross. and please dont do the bull shit about its not weightbomb but fashion. so over it.
August 23, 2011 7:04 pm
@essense you went in! Very adventurous and I commend her for that. I would wear some of her pieces, I <3 the docs and the printed blazers/jacket
August 23, 2011 7:06 pm
i like the outfit with the yellow and thats all. people kill me though by saying her fashion is bomb. which part, she is doing the cut off shorts we have seen numerous times, tights oh my God so sick of them,. So in short every time there is an obese fashion bomb people became so patronizing and extremely political. Get over it . i agree when u are obese and overweight cuts off, tights are a no no, definately not flattering. You need fabric that has structure and breathes.
August 23, 2011 7:06 pm
Glad to see a plus size lady who wears clothes that doesn’t show her rolls and cellulite!…Her style is different..I like..
August 23, 2011 7:27 pm
i know this is a fashion bomb but i cant help being worried and frustrated for this young lady. my mom died at the young age of 50 from complications that come with being obese and overweight. i have been zealous ever since about being healthy and it disturbs me that only in the black community being obese and overweight is being applauded. i am not saying crucify her. i just wish the community would take this seriously and realize obesity is a fatal disease that kills.
August 23, 2011 7:35 pm
Go ahead Tiff girl….
August 23, 2011 8:26 pm
You go girl! Get em’ with your style!!
August 23, 2011 8:31 pm
As usual negativity is being spewed on this site by hatin ass females. The majority of you are insecure little girls who hide behind computer screens and probably have no real fashion sense. Over you birds and this site.
August 23, 2011 9:02 pm
Don’t feed the trolls!
August 23, 2011 9:28 pm
It is not my style but somehow it fits you though you might need to tweak your proportions and fit with your clothes but you are hitting your target style. I think when people think of plus size women and fashion it is usually homely looking and boring most of the time but your style is the opposite of that it is refreshing.
August 23, 2011 9:58 pm
here weight should never be a FACTOR UGH……the lady speaking about her mother ……..I CARE BECAUSE IT’S YOUR MOTHER BUT A FASHIONBOMB HEALTH who cares? I mean let her worry about her health dang do you worry about the alcholic on the street do you assist a homeless person but you come on the fashionbomb and all of a sudden you are concerened for her HEALTH smh. help the fat ppl in your neighborhood your family before you worry about someone and how they fit in their clothes. IT’S REALLY GETTING REDUNDANT!
August 23, 2011 10:10 pm
No obesity, trying to fit into ill-fitting clothes, & PC trolls trying to force it down our throats that to look like this is normal is REALLY GETTING REDUNDANT. Those shorts look painful.
August 23, 2011 10:10 pm
I want to live in those hot pink doc martins!
August 23, 2011 10:23 pm
I came back to say that i really love that jacket in the first picture I could do some thangs with that! cute piece!
August 23, 2011 10:25 pm
I will never FORCE anything down your throat what i’m saying is……WIDE YA HORIZONS. judge her fashion period. all of these ppl like oh i just want her to be healthy….do you know her? if something happens to her will it shake you to your core? will you cry out for her? NO, NO, NO so please spare me with the sad sobe stories about being concerned your opinion is YOUR opinion. but STOP all of the CONCERN like really!
August 23, 2011 10:26 pm
I love her style! absolutely digging it! :)
