admired woman - Tess Holliday

Unless you've been hiding under a rock the past couple days, you've no doubt heard about the plus size model (26, US 22) named Tess Holliday.  I've seen her photo a few months ago (I follow a BBW twitter feed) and I think she's just absolutely gorgeous.  So much in fact, I don't even see fat.  I also happen to like the "pinup" look, and tattoos (when they're done right).
I bring this up because so many of us who crossdress think it's futile because we're a few extra pounds.  If this lady can pull it off, I'm sure most of us can too.
She's also sponsored by a clothing line named "yoursclothes" which seems to care about how plus size clothing fits (many don't, particularly stores like lane bryant).  Prices I'm seeing are fairly reasonable considering, certain compares to lane bryant but without the grandma style/prints.

If you compare her non-makeup face to a very made-up face, it's easy to see how important a good makeup job is.
