Is inner thigh chafing (a.k.a. “kissing thighs”) your worst nightmare? Tired of automatically having to wear leggings of bike shorts every time you wear a skirt or a dress, even in the scorching summer heat? It’s personally driving me a little crazy, especially when it comes to travel… ►►►
Montreal recently held it’s very first plus-size fashion week under the name Montreal + Fashion Week (a.k.a. MTLplusFW) during the May 20-22 weekend. Though fashion is a topic I hardly mention on this blog, I have to command the very inclusive nature of the event, and not necessarily because I was a guest speaker at the event (click here to find out more about “Pack Small-Think Big!”), but because the event also explored not only plus-size fashion and different aspects of well-being for plus-size women. ►►►
As a backpacker, I try to remain open to as many opportunities as possible, activity-wise. And it’s not because I usually present a quite casual look that I don’t want to be ready for a special night! I often treat myself with the occasional fancy dinner/activity during my trips; often, in order to be able to do that, I need at least one appropriate outfit for the occasion! ►►►
Author, blogger and plus-size backpacker Edith Bernier will debut “Pack Small – Think Big!” at 11:30 am on Sunday, May 22 at the Crowley Arts Center, a featured presentation of the Montreal + Fashion Week. ►►►
I had a chance to exchange emails with Mr. Gabor Lukacs who has been fighting with airlines for the past few years for numerous reasons, including the rights of plus-size passengers. ►►►

Though a duster is not a “full garment”, I still think this is the kind of item that can easily prop up an outfit and add a little touch to what would otherwise be a pretty bland outfit. Meet the Terri Chiffon Duster, in all it’s sleeveless, maxi-sized, aerial glory! ►►►
I am glad to – finally! – announce that I will take part to the 2016 Montreal + Fashion Week, the first bilingual Plus Size Fashion Week in the province of Quebec! ►►►
So I took my Perfect Palazzo Pants on the road… to the airport. (Trust me, I looked at all those people getting ready to fly away and I was truly jealous! I came this close to buy a ticket… after all, I already had my suitcase and a bunch of outfits with me, haha!) ►►►
The PS Backpacker is celebrating it’s 3rd anniversary! So, what happened since April 9th, 2013 ? ►►►
