Phat Girl Friday......... Elise Micomyiza

Well as you all know today is Phat Girl Friday.  Although I have had a trying week and a busy day, here I am.  I have to tell you, initially I was going to write and feature someone else but evidently God had other plans.  Now I don’t claim to be the Holiest person but I know and love God.  I know that he has shown me far more favor then I deserve.  Last night was no different.  I received an email from a young lady named Elise Micomyiza, and after reading the message, I was in tears but empowered all at the same time.  I wasn't sure what she wanted me to do with it or why she had chosen to share it with me but I am grateful.  I have long known exactly what my assignment from God was, and every day, my desire is to operate in that.  Which is why is automatically knew that Elise’s story needed to be shared.  There are people (not just plus size women) who need to read this.  Trials, triumph, courage and love for other; all things that make Elise Micomyiza……… PHAT GIRL FRESH

My name is Elise Micomyiza born 24 may 1990 in Africa in a small country Rwanda which is in central Africa and known for the 1994 genocide. My dad was a bus driver and owned garage and my mother was a veterinary and a business woman.  I lost my parents/brother and sister during the 1994 war Hutus against Tutsi...I was the only survivor in my family.  After the genocide I lived with my aunt who adopted several children that had the same situation...  Growing up wasn't easy after the war, I had to do everything by myself I never fitted any were even though I was adopted I felt lonely. But I always had a smile and time to make other laugh and be happy. As young I was interested a lot in everything that was entertaining.  at home when my adoptive parents weren't there I was there entertaining visitors making them laugh I always had jokes, my mom always called me to entertain people; neighbors knew me, everyone thought I deserved to work on TV. When I went in high school we moved in Madagascar a big island very beautiful lovely and nice people, 2009 I decided that I had to come here in Canada and fulfill my dreams, I never really knew what I wanted I only knew it would be entertaining whatever I would do...I worked for Rogers in Montreal then moved to Ottawa where I was working for a Canadian designer Nelly.  When I started to work for her I figured that I did want to work in fashion industry I had tried casting for L’Oreal but didn't work out until I applied for the weight is over and I was lucky enough to model at mambo restaurant in Ontario when they organized a fashion show 2013 and met Stephanie the designer of sexy plus who invited me to Toronto a very nice lady down to earth and I was amazed working with her.  So then I decided to register at Richard Robinson where am attending haute couture 3 year diploma to become a designer....in the future am looking forward to become a famous model/designer/actress...I believe life is short, there is a reason I survived and lost my family and the reason why am still here, so I don't live to regret I live to make a difference and to encourage everyone around the world that there is always a reason for everything.  To view more pictures of  Elise Micomyiza click the following link, http://www.phatgirlfresh.com/#!fashionably-fresh/cnec

M.A.C RETRO MATTE FALL 2013 COLLECTION


I know that I am a couple days late but I have been busy, so don't judge me.  I a super excited about the launch of M.A.C Cosmetics Retro Matte Fall 2013 collection.  If you know me and my love for lipstick, you know that I live for a good matte lipstick.  In my opinion, M.A.C reigns supreme when it come to matte lippies and I LOVE THEM!!!!!!  With its one-of-a-kind Retro Matte texture, Ruby Woo Lipstick has become a smash hit both on and off the runway. Inspired by its stunning popularity, M.A.C has revamped this lipstick legend with invigorating, bold shades in its Retro Matte finish. Eye-catching new colors like Dangerous and All Fired Up create a look that’s feminine yet fierce. M.A.C also introduces its Pro Longwear Lip Pencils in a vibrant, NEW color palette, giving this long-lasting and transfer-proof lip pencil an exhilarating makeover. When I found out about this, I immediately put some coins to the side because they are all must haves.  I have already placed an order for mine and you know I can't wait to rock them!!!!!  They will be available in stores on September 12, 2013, don't wait to get them because I know they will sell out as they have already sold out to the M.A.C pro's and online junkies. #phatgirlfresh #lipstickmafia




GUCCI GUCCI GUCCI!!!!!

So not only is rapper Gucci Mane ugly and ignorant but he isn't above kissing and telling either.  This clown recently jumped on twitter and started dropping the names of all the women in the industry he has supposedly bedded.  Oh, he even said that he wouldn't mind giving T.I wife Tiny a piece of the action.  I wonder how Tip and Keyshia Dior(his supposed girlfriend) feel about that......... The tell-all tweets began rolling in after the Atlanta rapper issued a seemingly harmless message about self-perspective.
"Every 1 n the industry has a hidden agenda every person let greed n pride conquer them its sad but I been in jail so much it humbled me"
From there things went strangely off-track. The troublesome rapper began to tweet insults to JeezyT.I.2 ChainzDrake and oddly EminemNicki Minaj was also among the list of big name stars called out in the rant, but the allegations made against her went deeper than rap.
"Me and waka f--- nikki minaj dats nothing,” read one bombshell tweet.
Gooch went on to boast about his past relationship with Nicki, who at one time lived in Atlanta while being managed by Gucci’s former manager Deb Antney (Waka Flocka’s mom). He addressed Minaj’s previous comments about a need for an intervention to help the oft incarcerated hip hop star.
"Tell. Her intervention my d--k in her throat I moved dat b---h to atl. B---h u sleepin n d car. B---h I pulled dat b—h off wayne bus."
Minaj was hardly the only woman that Gucci made sexually offensive claims about.
"Ask ciara did she ride dat bike 4 gucci in cali while she was with 50 [Cent] ask kelly did she cum to patchwork and onyx while she was wit shaka"
While Notorious B.I.G. may have had dreams of sleeping with an R&B chick back in the day, Gucci Mane claims to be living that dream today. He named MonicaKeyshia Cole and Fantasia among his sexual conquests.
His mention of Monica drew a response and led to an apparent confrontation with the singer’s ex-boyfriend Rocko Da Don.
"IM OUTSIDE YA SPOT RIGHT NOW! WHERE U @? @gucci1017"
Judging from the contrary tweets that followed the incident it's hard to say what happened during the face-to-face meeting.
It was clear, however, that Gucci has a thing for his music peers’ significant others. He alluded to a past intimate relationship with Tyga’s girlfriend (the mother of his son) Black Chyna, while revealing his desire to sleep with T.I.’s wife Tiny.
"I wanna f--k tiny lil ugly a--."
It’s hard to tell what triggered this explicit rambling from Gucci or whether it’s the work of a hacker, but it has been a rather interesting read and is sure to draw a reaction from many.

TAMAR TALKS CONFIDENCE.




Last Tuesday was big for RnB music, with the release of Raheem Devaughn, John Legend, Jahiem and Tamar Braxton new album.  We all know that artist have to work the circuit to increase album sales which is what the baby Braxton girl has been doing.  She recently had a real talk session with some of Necole Bitchie's followers and ended up in tears.  During the QnA session one of the ladies asked Tamar about having confidence and her past abusive relationship.  Tamar fought back tears as she admitted that she hasn't always been the confident diva that we see today.  She stated that she used attitude and fake confidence to hide the fact that she didn't love and believe in herself due to her abuse.  Despite all of her trials, Tamar rose above that situation to become the women that we see today.  However, she says, "that girl still lives" in her and she "work hard daily to keep her hidden."

I posted this to let other women know that confidence starts with you.  It doesn't matter how smart, pretty or successful you are.  Being confident starts with you!!!!! #phatgirlfresh
