Jahqoi Website Gets a Facelift

Posted by Sarah on March 27th, 2007

I have just heard from Dorez today, who happens to be plus size fashion designer Anna Nicole’s mother, and an essential part of the Jahqoi team. Dorez informed me that the Jahqoi website has been given a complete revamp. Of course, I quickly visited http://www.jahqoi.com to check out the new website design, and I must say the revamp works for me.

I feel that the Jahqoi website is now better structured, and makes navigation around the site better and easier. The layout probably helps visitors get to the items they are looking for more efficiently. Also, the information available is more detailed, which makes for a more complete shopping experience. I believe this revamp will definitely boost Jahqoi’s popularity with full figured women, worldwide.

Let me not forget to mention that along with this excellent website revamp, Jahqoi have knocked quite a bit off the price of many items! So what better time can there be to visit Jahqoi and see what they offer?

More T-Shirt Options for Plus Size Women

Posted by Sarah on March 18th, 2007

I came across this interesting press release today, which was released by evisionArts.com, an online store which I had never heard about before. evisionArts have been providing print on demand t-shirts, and other accessories, online since 2001. So what was so special about this news? Well evisionArts have just added women’s plus sizes to their range of t-shirts. Well done evisionArts, I am always pleased to hear about stores widening their offering, and becoming more curvy friendly.

So I visited evisionArts and I must say I will definitely be back to purchase some of the items, as I have found a couple which are both cute and hilarious!

I’m sure my boyfriend will appreciate me wearing this ‘I have mood swings’ t-shirt, it would serve as a great warning for the day. And how about the chocolate collection of prints? I especially love the first one… “Shut up and give me CHOCOLATE“. I couldn’t have said it better myself!

I applaud evisionArts for adding plus sizes to their range! Kudos!

Posted by Sarah on March 17th, 2007

2007 is turning out to be a very busy and successful year for plus size fashion designer Anna Nicole, who together with her mother Dorez, has founded the trend setting plus size clothing line Jahqoi.

Anna Nicole has been working hard to create extremely stylish, colorful and figure flattering new designs for Jahqoi, most of which can in fact already be seen on their brand new website. The hard work has indeed been paying off as Jahqoi has landed a couple of interviews with leading TV stations.

In fact last Tuesday, 13th March Anna Nicole was interviewed by NBC News. After the interview was aired in Los Angeles, it was also aired in other cities around the Unites States. Talk about a big time TV appearance for plus size fashion designer!

In the interview with Gayle Anderson, Anna Nicole showcases some beautiful pieces from her collection. You can actually watch this interview online, as it’s saved in KTLA’s archives.

Curvy Lakisha Jones Wearing Missphit on American Idol

Posted by Sarah on March 16th, 2007

I have to be honest, I do not have much time on my hands to watch a lot of TV. But every now and again I do like to curl up on the couch, with a nice cup of tea, some biscuits and watch some good TV. More often than not I end up watching some reality show, I have to admit I am a sucker for them!

Although I must say one show I haven’t been following is American Idol, however I will start following this show after getting to know about the great talent that’s being showcased. I was even more intrigued when I got to know about Lakisha Jones, a beautiful plus size woman with one hell of a voice, who is a contestant in American Idol.

I managed to catch up on the whole American Idol show, and Lakisha’s performances so far, by browsing around online and watching some clips here and there. I must say I am impressed! Lakisha has an amazing voice, carries herself with great pride and style, and totally rocks the stage when she performs. It’s great to have such a positive role model for young girls around the world participate in such a popular show.

I was very happy, and also surprised (in a very positive way), to notice that in one of her recent performances Lakisha was wearing the very stylish and sexy Diva Halter top from Missphit. This halter top comes in red and cream, vibrant colors that go very well on Lakisha, and a style which hugs her curves in the right way. She definitely looks very stylish wearing it.

It’s excellent to see Missphit plus size clothing line increasing popularity, and being worn in the most prestigious of occasions! You might recall that Missphit had recently also been featured in an article within Latina Magazine. I wonder what other great stuff is in store for Missphit.
