A few weeks ago I got a surprise phone call from a segment producer at CBS 2 News Los Angeles who wanted to partner with me on a 2 part series focused on plus size fashion and style to air on the 11pm news. Needless to say, I was excited, nervous, anxious, flattered, but mostly THRILLED!!!
It is so refreshing to hear from someone working in mainstream media who wants to showcase the plus size fashion industry in a positive way and really wants to give something interesting and informative to their audience that is a bit "outside the fashion box"!
I had an absolute blast working with CSB on this piece! We partnered with one of my favorite stores, Lane Bryant at the Westfield Culver City Mall and chatted about dressing our plus size bodies as well as highlighted fall 2012 fashion trends on one of my favorite models, Danielle Line.
The first part of the 2 part series aired last night (Tuesday, August 21st at 11pm). I am beyond elated with the final outcome of the segment, and so honored to have been given this platform to represent the positive side of plus!
You can check out the entire segment HERE, and make sure to leave a comment on their site!
We have another segment in the works, and I will definitely keep you posted on the deets!
Here are a few behind the scenes snaps...

I'm so glad we subscribe to your site, Reah. Saw the video of your CBS appearance. You and Danielle did a beautiful job! Are you still in Los Angeles? Would love to connect with you. If you're not, then hopefully we can meet on your next visit.
