The CurvyCon Vlog 2016

 Hello All My Darling Diva’s!

I know it’s been along time since we have seen each other! I have been struggling with some technical difficulties lately, but I finally have everything back on track! Today I am excited to bring you my Curvy Con vlog for 2016! I went to the first ever CurvyCon last year, and it was absolutely amazing! You can click here to check out last year’s vlog. Well of course I had to attend this year’s and it was bigger and better than last year! CurvyCon 2016 was 2 days, 2 floors, and lots of amazing surprises and people! This vlog didn’t even capture half of what was going on because it was that much amazing things happening! But I def did my best with recording what I could! But enough of the chit chat! lets get into the vlog!  
 

Did you enjoy? I hope so! This year was jammed packed with plenty of surprise, and it was really a great time! I was awesome last year, but honestly even better this year! I feel like Cece and Chasity really listened to any issues from last year, and made adjustments according to what they heard. It was truly an experience, and I insist that curvy girls everywhere attend this event! It is truly worth it!
