We have been following the colourful life of Stacey McGregor (@stace_mcgregs) on Instagram for a while now and were lucky to have her in at HQ for a photo shoot and catch up this week. She is a total sweetheart who exudes happiness and sunshine. Keep reading to learn more about this body positive role model who inspires her loyal followers everyday to dress beautifully, smile always and practice self love. We’ve learned how to put your hands in your pockets correctly (yes, that’s a thing) and to always pick up a ‘wild card’ when shopping.
For those who aren’t already following your style journey on Instagram.. Give us a low down of who you are and what you are all about.
I’m a 30 something, curve model, fashion blogger and belly laugher who spends her time taking photos of her outfits in front of bright walls in Brisbane, and spends her future house deposit on smashed avocado for brunch. I’m also an aspiring comedian, so you’ll find I don’t take myself too seriously, and my posts are generally fun and pun-filled. On a serious note I am passionate about helping women feel confident in their own skin, whether that’s through my volunteer work at Dress for Success or providing style inspiration for women on Instagram.
What advice can you give women on dressing for their shape?
Wear what you love and what you feel confident in. Don’t get hung up on the number on the tag. Sometimes its best to go up a size to get an item to drape nicely, if the number bothers you so much, cut the tag off. Follow fashion bloggers on Instagram or Facebook for style inspo, I love seeing clothes on everyday women, particularly when I’m buying online. My favourite tip when in store shopping – I always tell my clients I’m styling to take one wild card piece to the change room with them – whether its a different trend, colour or style that they normally wouldn’t go for, try it on for fun, you’d be surprised at how often the wild card pieces end up being the take home piece.
Hi Shirley! Thanks for the feedback, we love shooting our clothes on gorgeous girls like Stacey. Confidence is definitely key and we are so happy that you love our styles x BB team
I doo love to see women like Stacey who I call More to love models modelling gorgeous clothes. I have always been told I wear my clothes with confidence no matter what I paid for them and I get asked all the time where I buy my clothes. I now proudly can say Blue Bungalow. I will shortly be 70 but they still suit me. If you want some pics of me in your clothes feel free to ask….yay for the pensioners
