I have been back from the TCFStyleExpo an entire week and I am still missing all of the fabulous ladies I met in Atlanta. This was my first year attending the TCFStyleExpo, which is a two-day plus size fashion event created by The Curvy Fashionista that includes shopping, panels and workshops and fashion shows. It was such a great experience! From the Cobb Galleria to the surrounding area, I loved the venue and the area of Atlanta it was located in. A venue that is easy to find with great hotels and restaurants nearby and even a mall right across the street is a definite win! Now that I am home, I have had time to reflect on the weekend and I want to share three of my favorite moments from the weekend.
Three of My Favorite Fabulous Moments from the 2017 TCFStyleExpo
1. The blogger brunch, panels and workshops allowed me to meet and hear from my favorite bloggers!
As I was preparing to attend the TCFStyleExpo, one of the things I was most looking forward to was actually seeing and meeting plus size bloggers that I admire. They showed up and showed out honey! At the blogger brunch, I was able to meet and hug ladies I have followed online for years. I loved how warm and welcoming everyone was! Not only did I get to tell them how awesome they were in person, but I even got to listen to several of my favorites during a panel and workshop, including the "Style Has No Age or Size Panel" and the "Styled for Life Workshop." I loved the confidence shown and the wisdom shared with us.

2. Dia & Co created such a fun, memorable experience for attendees.
Dia & Co was one of this year's TCFStyleExpo sponsors. In the vendor area, they had such a beautiful, fun area set up for attendees that included couches, a recharging station, water, popcorn and more. One of my favorite parts about the expo is Dia & Co brought the amazing artist, Jonquel Norwood of Jonquel Art, to draw pictures of attendees. I was so excited to see her in person and I was so happy I was able to have an image drawn by her. She did such a great job at really capturing the detail of my dress. I loved it!
3. Listen... The MVP Collections fashion show was the bomb!
I love that the TCFStyleExpo did not just include plus size women, but men as well. It was great meeting the gentlemen at the expo and the MVP Collections fashion show was the bomb. I loved the collection they shared as well as the men being themselves and strutting down the runway. I love the collection so much that I have been scoping out a few of MVP Collections' pieces for my hubby.
Overall, I love that the TCFStyleExpo had something for everyone. I felt like I could have even brought my husband and he could have done some shopping for himself. I am looking forward to seeing next year's event! Plus, I won a free Dia & Co box while I was there so I can't wait to show you guys what I get inside!
