Posted on 12/16/2014 by kirstyleanne

With the Christmas season in full swing I thought it would be a good idea to help the last minute present buyers (myself included!) to cross off everyone on their Christmas list with these amazing, affordable and easy to make … Continue reading →

AD | Gifted 💫 Yesterday was one hell of a busy day as me and @unwrittenchloee spent 8 hours shooting 9 different looks in some local Shropshire towns. We explored derelict abbeys, visited our favourite cafe in Shrewsbury and planned world (blogging) domination 🙌🏻💪🏻 • • For the past few weeks I have felt as though I have been losing my motivation when it comes to blogging and Instagram but after yesterday it is well and truly back. I’m spending the day filling my new diary, writing lots of content and pitching some exciting new ideas to brands. 📚📝💌 • • What are your Sunday plans? 👇🏻 • • ❤️ Denim dress gifted by @missguided #missguided #missguidedplus #missguidedbabes #missguideddress

AD | Gifted ❤️ After being at an Instagram standstill for a month or so, I have gained lots of amazing new followers this past week. To celebrate, I thought I’d do another ‘get to know me’ post with even more random facts than last time 🙌🏻 • • So, I’m Kirsty Leanne, a plus size travel blogger from Telford. I first started my blog in 2014, where I was writing about beauty and lifestyle. As I started to travel more, writing about beauty didn’t feel right, especially as I was no longer buying expensive makeup regularly. It was a tough decision to make, but I decided to start afresh and focus on travel. At the start of last year, however, I noticed my content had started to take a completely different route- plus size travel. It’s now almost 18 moths later and it’s incredible to be working in something I’m passionate about every single day. I have a 1,200+ community of incredible people over at @plussizetraveltoo, tonnes of plus size travel content on my blog and an ongoing campaign to change the way travel looks today. It’s incredibly hard work, but I wouldn’t change it for the world 🌍 • • So, onto the random facts... 👇🏻 • • My favourite chocolate bar is Milkybar Smarties (I’m convinced the idea was stolen from me because I once tweeted about eating Milkybar buttons and Smarties at the same time) 🌈 • • I have McFly live 5 times and would 100% go to see them again if I had the chance 🎸 • • When I was younger I wanted to be an editor of a magazine in New York. It will never happen, but I feel like I’m part way there with my own blog 🗽 • • I used to be in 4 school bands, playing either the Clarinet or the Tenor Saxophone. I tried to learn guitar but gave up after learning Seven Nation Army 🎷 • • I’ve never seen a single Star Wars or Lord Of The Rings movie ❌ • • I once spelt my name wrong on a flight. I had to spend £175 to fix it AND almost missed my flight to California. The reason I spelt it wrong? I genuinely thought Leanne had two e’s (like, Leeanne) 🤷🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️ • • Tell me something fun about you 👇🏻 • • ❤️ Full outfit gifted by @primark #primark #primarkuk #plussizeprimark #primarkootd #primarkfashion #psprimark

AD | Gifted 💫 Happy Saturday! I’m going to be spending my weekend doing some housework, making my garden look pretty and trying to find ways to convince my boyfriend to take some new outfit shots for me. If there is one thing he hates, it’s being behind the camera even though he’s actually really good at it. For those of you that manage this on a regular basis, please please share your tips (I already offered a meal out, so that’s out of the question) 😂🤞🏻 • • ❤️ Jumpsuit gifted by @dorothyperkins 📸 @unwrittenchloee #plussizefashion #plussizeootd #plussize #psblogger #psbloggers #plussizeblogger #plussizeblog

AD | Discounted 💫 I am FINALLY getting around to writing some of my Trek America content and I’m getting super emotional reliving all of the amazing things that we did! As much as I love my home comforts, my dream would be to spend a couple of months getting Greyhound buses between as many States as I possibly can! With 9 already ticked off my list, I still have some exploring to do.... 🗺🇺🇸❤️ • • So, who is coming with me? 😏🙌🏻 • • ❤️ My @trekamerica Trip was Discounted in return for content #trekamerica #trekmoment #itrekhere #visittheusa #nashville #nashvillemurals #nashvillemural #thegulch #thegulchnashville #nashvilletn #nashvilletennessee #visitnashville #nashville_tn #nashvillegram #instanashville #nashvillelove #plussizetraveltoo #plussizetravel #travelinclusivity #fatgirlstraveling #fatgirlstravelling

AD | Gifted 💫 It’s been a long time since I posted a carousel post on Instagram but I felt like the Kennedy Space Center definitely deserved it. I mean, just look at all of those incredible rockets 🚀 • • Do you ever have those places where you’ve wanted to visit for as long as you can remember and then they exceed your expectations, even though you didn’t think it was possible? That was the KSC for me. It’s been just over a month since I visited and I still can’t stop thinking about how incredible the different exhibitions were. From learning about incredible American astronauts and driving around launch pads to seeing immersive replicas of both failed and successful launches, it really was an experience I’ll remember. I 100% left feeling like I could achieve anything ✨🛰 • • ❤️ My tickets to The Kennedy Space Center were gifted to me by @kennedyspacecenter #ksc #kennedyspacecenter #thekennedyspacecenter #kennedyspacecenter🚀 #kennedyspacecentervisitorcomplex

AD | Gifted 💫 For years I have been looking lustfully at all of the cute play suits in stores thinking that I’d never be able to wear one. Not only would they not suit me but oh my gosh, can you imagine the chub rub?! I’d written them off and decided that I’d stick to jumpsuits instead 🤷🏼‍♀️ . . I don’t know why, but when I found out I was going to Garorock Festival I decided that if I was going to wear a playsuit, now would be the perfect opportunity. It was going to be 41 degrees and if anything, I could pass it off as festival fashion if it didn’t look right. I ordered two, one from @missguided and one from Boohoo 🙌🏻 . . As you can see it DOES suit me (I think) and the chub rub? NON-EXISTENT. I’m definitely a playsuit convert and now wondering what other clothes I have written off without even giving them a chance! Co-ords? Dungarees? Bodycon Dresses? What should I try next?! 😏👇🏻 . . ❤️ Playsuit gifted by @missguided ❤️ Bag gifted by @boohoo ❤️ I was invited to Garorock as a plus one, so I was under no obligation to post #Garorock #festival #festivalfashion #plussizefestival #psoot #psbloggers #psblogger #psblog

AD | Gifted 🌈 Do you ever find a dress that as soon as you put it on, it’s all you want to wear for the rest of the summer?! 🙊 • • This candy coloured sundress from @yoursclothinguk is definitely THE dress of the summer for me, especially as it’s the coolest linen material ever. It’s been so so comfortable on days where it’s hit 30 degrees (or 41, like it did in France) ☀️☀️🙌🏻🙌🏻 • • P.s. please ignore the sun burn, apparently factor 50 every half an hour was STILL not enough for my ginger skin 😭🤦🏼‍♀️ #yoursclothing #yoursclothinguk #psbloggers #plussizebloggers #plussizeblog #plussizeootd #stylehasnosize #plussizefashion

AD | Gifted 💫 I’m definitely still recovering from the weekend but it was so so worth it as I go to go to my first ever festival. The four-day Garorock festival in Marmande consisted of lots of beer and Aperol, an endless supply of glitter, incredible music and non-stop dancing. ☀️🎶 • • Highlights include reliving my childhood by seeing @sum41, dancing to @djsnake on day 3, discovering the amazing @christineandthequeens, listening to @twodoorcinemaclub and realising I know way more songs than I thought and the INCREDIBLE headline that was @macklemore. I’ve still got no voice because I sang and screamed so much 😂🙊 • • As far as festivals go, Garorock was a great first choice. It was INCREDIBLY clean (look at the lack of rubbish in my photo) and it was all pretty contained and easy to get to. Not only that, but the crowd were amazing. I’m a little worried I may have been spoilt and I’ll have a bit of a shock at my next festival, but there’s only one way to find out, right? 😂🙌🏻 • • 📸: @absolutelylucy ❤️ I was a plus one on this trip, so under no obligation to post ❤️ Dress and bag gifted by @boohoo @boohooplus #festival #festivaloutfit #festivalinspo #plussizefestival #festivalfashion #spacebuns #garorock #garorock2019 #playsuit #romper

I’ve had a little bit of an Instagram break the last five days as I’ve been living my best life in France at my FIRST EVER festival! 🙌🏻🎉 • • Although I would have loved to get the full festival experience by camping, the heat was hitting the 40’s most days. Luckily we had our very own Gite to stay in, fully equipped with a pool and all the wine I could drink. Clearly, I took full advantage of that🥂🍾 • • The festival wasn’t my only first this weekend, as this is also the first time I’ve ever worn a bikini! Despite the fact I come across as confident on Instagram, I still get self-conscious when I’m putting myself out there. I was DEFINITELY not feeling it at first, but after a bit of encouragement from @danniellelily and @absolutelylucy I felt so much better. I feel as though I’d built wearing a bikini up to be this massively scary thing for me when really, it’s not *so* bad. Here’s to way more bikinis in my life 🙌🏻 • • 📸 @absolutelylucy ❤️ I was invited as a plus one on this trip, therefore had no obligation to post ❤️ Bikini bought from @prettylittlething who I have worked with in the past #bikini #plussizebikini #bikiniseason #bikinilovers #plussizebikinis
