Welcome to Curve Confidence


Hi there!  My name is Kris, and I am a 38 year old grandmother who is not only confident in her curves, but extremely proud to be a plus sized women.   These photos were just taken a month ago, and in my opinion reflect my secure attitude and youthful looks.  

I haven't always been so confident in my body and spent MANY years hating myself and the skin I was in.  Having always been bigger than most, I struggled with my self image and was a victim of society's damaging pressure to be thin.  My lack of self confidence was dangerous, as it lead to a promiscuous lifestyle and extreme mental anguish.  

I yearned for attention, love and the affections of men.  What I found was that being in such a vulnerable state of mind, I made myself available for the wrong guys and ultimately invited being used and mistreated.  I wore baggy clothes, and wouldn't be caught dead in a dress or anything sexy. 

One day, I would finally open my eyes, take a long hard look in the mirror and realize that I am a beautiful HEALTHY young lady.  I don't really know why or what prompted the change, but I can say that I was simply exhausted from hating myself.  I knew the ONLY way to change was to accept who I am and love myself the way I am.  
I spent many years rebuilding my self esteem and developing confidence that would change my life forever.  I realized that I was worse off with such a self loathing mental state of mind, than being over weight.  It occurred to me that your mental state of mind can be far more of a danger to you than your being out of shape and over weight.  

I am a much happier person these days, and totally sport my confidence like my brightest accessory!  I invite you to my life, crazy and free and comfortable being me!

Starting over, new beginnings

It's never easy having to close a chapter and start a new one, but often necessary to evolve. When one door closes, another opens right? So you come to my site, see fresh new social media accounts with less than 100 followers, less than 50 pieces of inventory in my store and a blog with few posts and think "We have a newbie here." But this, is my fresh start. It's bitter sweet being on my own with this project, which has been a vague hobby I have neglected for quite some time. Bitter, as it reminds me what starting from ground zero feels and looks like. Sweet, because now I am the only creative force and decision maker of my business. Coming from building other brands and successful businesses has its assortment of difficulties and roller coaster feelings. I stepped away from a long-term project, having to give up years of work and the pride of developing a successful business and brand. Welcome to Raja75.com! I am quite happy to...

Amazon product review: Plus size pencil skirt

 You never know what to expect when you are shopping online and especially with plus size clothing.  Finding quality, fitting fashionable items is difficult at best. The internet can surely mislead you with altered photos and what you actually receive is nothing like the photo. I took a chance with Amazon hoping to find the perfect pencil skirt.  My issue is that I have a belly flap.  Better known as an "apron" as it's sagging skin and belly fat that hangs rather than a rounded belly or flat stomach.  My waist is small, belly flap and then thick thighs make for a strange figure that clothing usually fits either too small at the hips or too big at the waist. Here is what I ordered:    Here is how the skirt fit on me:     I admit, I may have ordered it a tad bit too big, but I would much rather have it be a little loose rather than too small to get into.  It's comfortable, and it's the perfect length!  This was a grea...
