The Reinvention of Femmes Faisant

We've done it. We've made our first HUGE step in the reinvention of the Femmes Faisant Podcast. As of Friday at approximately 1:30pm, the first podcast featuring Femmes Faisant founder Mia and new co-host Sam (ahem, me...) became a reality. It is in the editing process at the moment and will soon be available for your listening pleasure, but let me go ahead and give you a little break down. Here's some things we discussed:

• Lime Crime makeup - because we love make up and especially wild, bold, in your FACE make up, and it's cruelty free and vegan! (See below for a special link to get $5 off your first order!)
• Old Navy...and the hipo-CRAZY that is their plus sizes. 😒 😒 😒  (see what I did there? haaaa)
• Ashley Nell Tipton and her unbelievable talent...and the unfounded hate she gets for being an amazing contributor to the plus size community.
• Aly Raisman's fan-fucking-tastic response to body shaming. Yes, Olympic gymnasts even experience body shaming. WTF, world?! What is wrong with you?!
• Bukkake parties. Yes. You read that correctly. The article is linked below. You know you're curious.
• Self-talk and becoming more positive in all aspects of your life.

We also are doing an advice segment each month, so we're looking for questions, dilemmas, concerns, etc. from all of you lovely listeners (and readers). Hit us up on Twitter @femmesfaisant and we may pick your issue/question to advise on. We'll also be putting together what we like to call the EqualiTOTE that will be an awesome grab bag of fun things as an incentive to give us something to talk about! Help us to help you to help us.

So, about those links:
