So, I have bad news and good news. The bad news is that I am leaving New York. It’s been really fun and I’ve had some amazing experiences, but I haven’t found a full-time job, and obviously NYC isn’t exactly the best place to be with no money. The good news is that once I’m home, (besides having my own bed), I will be able to post more frequently. Since I won’t be living out of a suitcase, I’ll also be able to share my outfits a lot more. Honestly, I’m excited to return to Detroit, I miss the Midwest terribly.
For my last Saturday night in the city, I wore a cute colorblock body-con dress sent over from Jen’s Fashion Plus and my Calvin Klein Mary Janes. Definitely could’ve used some more accessorizing, but I was running late.
you look lovely; that dress fits you so well!
cute Dress! So sad to hear that u r leaving… especially since we never met! I was having lunch with J. Nabango one day and we were talking about ur blog, and I had NO idea u were from Detroit!!! ( me too! O how I miss Coney Island lol) Good luck with everything! You could do great things in Detroit for plus size women!!!! -Cat Peoples (twitter.com/catpeoples)

Sorry you are leaving the city. I hope you have more success in the job hunt in Detroit.
you’re great as usual
I wish you’ll find the perfect job soon
That dress is fabulous. I haven’t dared try a bodycon dress but I might give one a go having seen those pics!
Good luck with the move home
I hope the move is for the best, it’s sad you have to leave but then again, it hasn’t been exactly easy for a lot of people in the last few months… I can sympathize, believe me @_@…
Good luck with the job search back home, and for your last night? You rocked! Great outfit 😀
Wow your from Detroit? I can’t wait for you to post more frequently! Maybe you can hip me to some fashion spots here I don’t know about.
New York is a hard city. I’ve had friends go there with big dreams and have similar stories.
Wow, you look amazing (as usual).
You are an absolute inspiration for us plus sized gals.
Love your work, sorry to hear that you’re leaving NY, but I’m sure you’ll be back there. You’re in love with NY and once you’ve been bitten there is no cure.
Keep positing and keep applying for jobs.
Great dress, but what are you using in your hair? I need a better product for my curls.
hi, i’m brazilian and love this blog ! congratulations !
Your blog is wonderful. Just browsing through it makes me feel more confident in my body. Good luck in Detroit!
That dress looks great on you! … fyi ~ You’re fab in ANY city 😉 … wishing you all the best, in this transition.
first of all must say i love the dress. secondly omgness i had no idea you lived in the D. I live in Kalamazoo. Love your blog,good to have found some more of the MI fat and fab.
Lurker here, but you look wonderful and you know, at least you’ve had a taste of the New York experience and who knows once you do your time in Detroit, whose to say your journey won’t bring you back or perhaps to greater places. Every experience has a purpose! Even this one!
beautiful
You look gorgeous!!
I know how you feel about having to leave the city. But keep your head up, maybe you’ll find something better in Detroit. Besides, you never know what God has in store for you.
But ummm, you were killing that dress though!
Hi! That outfit is fierce.
I’m a fellow Detroit expat. I’ve heard that the economy is still really bad there, but I know why you miss it. Good luck!
Also, I don’t know what you do for a living, but if your profession is on the NAFTA list, you might want to try Toronto, where I am. It’s not as big, mean, and expensive as NYC, it’s incredibly lively and diverse, and the economy is still pretty strong. Also, it’s just a 4 hour drive to Detroit, so it’s easy to visit family.
Ohh so cute! Good lic moving back home – but you can always visit the city. That’s what I do.
You are rad!!! Can’t wait to see more of your outfits in the future!
GABY! come to chicago! the perfect combination of mid-west and big city!
we’d love to have you.
fabulous outfit!! You are such an inspiration to us fellow YFF girls out there!!
I agree with what deeleigh said, Toronto is a Canadian NYC and it’s nice to shop and do things there. Not as expensive, but still pretty pricy. If you want to give that a go, yeah. Depends on your profession, though. Montreal is great as well. :)!
Hi Gaby! My name is Joyce Terra,26, I´m from Brazil. I´m so glad to find a blog like yours, it´s so amazing and it´s helping me a lot! I love your productions!
When I saw that you were moving I was hoping it was to a city a few miles down south (DC). I would have loved to see what you could find for a big cheapo (no pun intended) like me.
*sigh* I feel you. I am living in nyc (been 2 yrs) and I am hating it here. I mean it has its fun moments definately, but I miss the quiet of the south. Finding a job here is NO JOKE. Especially with the economy like it is. :[
I am in love with your hair. No seriously. Hair tips pls! ^.^

OMG! A fellow Motor City Girl! I KNEW I loved you for a reason!!! My feelings won’t even be hurt if you tell me that you’re from the west side of Woodward. We’ll be glad to have you back!
Mary Janes are my absolute fav! They look adorable with your dress! Great look.
Good luck @ home! I’m sure you’ll find success wherever you are. I look forward to more of your posts!
Great outfit!! Rock it!
