⚜️About me/this blog:

I am from Chicago, but I’m now a New Orleans-based aesthete and burlesque performer. I’m a woman (she/her), and happily fat. I am absolutely divine and so are you! I post a lot of pretty pictures and self portraits. often times memes or social justice posts are peppered in but they usually get deleted within a day. For photos of me, search "mignonne" on my blog, include a year if you want to be specific. Enjoy your stay, however ephemeral, in this virtual and virtuous space, a portal into the flowery corners of my mind... My darker side blog is @luxus-aeterna.

I spend a lot of time and effort on my original content so if you feel so generously inclined, my Venmo is @iridessence, my cash app is $iridessence or you can inquire by DM about my PayPal! :)

Below is the DNI, then tagging, and FAQ at the bottom.

⚜️Do not interact/follow if you fall under the following…

Feed/ers and feed/ees, or fat fet/ish

ED, pro-ana or weight loss blogs. I understand some of you are looking toward recovery. Here are my in-depth thoughts on the matter, but long story short if I see you following me and I feel triggered when looking through your blog, I will most likely block you. If you have a recovery blog, that’s more than fine.

Blogs with only p/orn

Blogs with significant amounts of p/orn that do not regularly block creep blogs from following you

I if you run a K/I NK blog, please read: k/ink blogs that are not based around a/geplay, no/ncon or rå/ceplay, you can follow but please do not reblog pictures of people from me if you do not regularly block creep blogs following your

terfs or swerfs or general transphobes or people who don’t support sex workers' rights and safety.

I do regularly go through my following and investigate/block any blogs that stick out to me and fall under these categories.

⚜️Tagging:

A lot of pictures of food, mainly sweets, and alcohol like cocktails or champagne appear throughout my blog, with such frequency that I do not tag. This is your warning; if you cannot deal with pictures of food or champagne and cocktails, I recommend that you do not follow this blog.

I do not tag for body image in general. Sometimes I might if it is a very thin person who is near nude. 

I do try to tag for nudity, some posts have slipped

I have a lot of popular posts around fat liberation floating around this website so I sometimes get anon hate. They are not very frequent but sometimes I share those messages, which will be tagged as “anon hate cw” in general and "fat shaming cw" if it is centered around my weight, which it usually is. some people have expressed that I should not share them at all, which it is not your place to tell me how I deal with the hate that I get. Again, for your emotional convenience it is tagged. Please use the blacklist function.
