Margie

Meet Margie of MargiePlus.com! Margie is a 26-year-old, freelance fashion writer residing in NYC, who's style is simply amazing. She graduated with her MBA in Entrepreneurship last summer, writes a plus size column for LuckyMag.com and she is seriously just too much perfection for my eyes to handle. Everything from her amazing bleach blonde head of hair to her unique use of color/print pairings is unexpected and exactly what I love about her... That, her love for Bieber and her appropriate use of the word "Cray." (See Below lol)

Why did you start blogging?

I have been obsessed with fashion blogs for quite sometime now and am a fairly new blogger myself. As Lucky Magazine’s Fashion and Beauty Blogger Conference event coordinator, my life was surrounded by bloggers. Noticing my eclectic somewhat over the top style, a Lucky digital editor suggested that I start my own personal style blog.That was the push I needed to catalogue my fashion and Margie Plus was born. I wanted to use this as an opportunity to show that just because I'm plus size does not mean I cant be a fashionable forward thinker.
