UK plus size publishing makes a come back
Mrs T : 16 January 2007
When Yes! Magazine, the last UK dedicated plus size magazine, closed it's doors many years ago it was seen as a part of the general failure of paper based publishing. Most magazines of it's type survived on advertising mainly because the readership was so small. However money was lost to banner adverts on the Internet. But like a phoenix out of the fire comes a new magazine from the UK just for the plus sized!
The magazine is called Just as Beautiful and comes as a FREE PDF file sent to you each month. You can read it on screen, print it or how ever you want to browse it's colourful pages. I have a copy of the first edition and it's fairly packed with good info, interesting articles and fashion.
It's focus is mainly on the UK hence an interview with Debbie Chazen, part of the team that created TittyBangBang (UK TV comedy series). However there is a good article on Igigi, beauty tips and more.
It's really good to see a UK plus size mag again. The team led by publisher Ronnie Ajoku have made an excellent start and I would love to see the UK fashion industry get behind them and make sure it survives for many years!
To get the free magazine you will need to subscribe and to do that visit their website. Also you will need Adobe Acrobat reader, a free download.

I saw these scales in a TV documentary last year. Even then I thought to myself, where on earth do I get one of those? I am happy to tell you that not only can you get one but I can tell you who is behind it too!

Roomy Riders offers equestrian outfits
Are you finding it difficult to find something to wear for your equestrian interests? Well look no further as Roomy Riders come to the rescue. To be totally honest with you I know nothing about horses and related events so there is not a lot I can add, except of course that the clothing does look nice and generally covers size 16 to 26.
