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!
If you want to follow the followers of curvy con then here are all the info! They are amazing bloggers, and such beautiful women!

They are two amazing women, and I am so grateful that they created this event! I truly appreciate them for it! I didn’t meet as much people as I did last year since I was too busy shopping and dancing (lol) so instead I’m going to break down each day and give you more information of everything per day! Lets hop right in!
Day 1 Friday June17th
Day 1 was filled with working out and cocktails! We got a chance to workout with three amazing curvy fitness guru’s! We first worked out with Cece Olisa! She gave us an amazing workout, and it was filled with alot of fun! We then got a powerful workout by the 200+ fitness phenomenon Anowa Adjah. You can

I have 2 of her workout DVD’s and they are amazing! Then the workout portion of the day ended with some yoga by the beautiful Jessamyn. I sat out for this one, but all the ladies looks really relaxed and comfortable! She was very inspirational, and talked all about loving yourself! You can
