Copious Crush: Ilse, Full Figured Potential
If you've never stumbled across Full Figured Potential on Tumblr, you're missing out on an amazing mix of style, advice, music and pop culture. Ilse Giselle is a fab, fierce LA blogger who is possible Lena Dunham's biggest fan. We <3 you, Ilse!
Introduce Yourself! What’s your name, where do you live, and what do you do?
I’m Ilse Giselle pronounced [ill-say] and I’m a fashion and lifestyle blogger from Los Angeles.
How would you describe your personal style?
I’m a true city girl; I value comfort and versatility in my style above all else. I was a tomboy growing up and while I’m exploring more feminine silhouettes and pieces my style still reflects that boyish edge and has heavy streetwear influences.
Do you have any things you’ll never stop wearing?
Yes! Sneakers, I will never stop wearing sneakers.
What inspires you?
Everything, people, books and music. It’s pretty amazing how sometimes the most unexpected situations or people can leave you feeling inspired and motivated.
Tell me about Full Figured Potential. What do you focus on?
Full Figured Potential started as a place to highlight plus size fashion and inspirational and chic plus size women. It later developed more into a lifestyle blog, and eventually I got over the shyness and started featuring my personal style.
What are you listening to right now?
I’ve been listening to Kendrick Lamar’s album good kid, m.A.A.d city. Milo Greene and a lot of Chief Keef in the past couple of days.
What are you loving on Copious right now?
Do I even need to explain why I love this bag?
I have several pairs of sneaker wedges but I mean I could always make room for these!
I’ve been having this long love affair with round sunglasses.
