Louise O’Reilly has opened up about how she helps women with body image issues.
The curvy model, who was just crowned Ireland’s Most Influential Fashion Blogger for her blog Style Me Curvy, admitted that she gets hundreds of emails a week from women thanking her for helping them banish their body image struggles.
“I probably get about 200 emails a week, it is really lovely,” she revealed.

“It’s a combination of people struggling with finding something to wear or people struggling with their own body image issues. They are delighted that they have the blog to go to.
“That one message that shows you have had an impact on someone’s life makes everything worthwhile.
“Nothing else matters. It’s the best feeling in the world,” she told the Herald.
The blonde beauty, who balances modelling and blogging, admitted that she can work up to 18-hours a day, but she wouldn’t have it any other way.

“I could easily be working 18-hour days before I am finished.
“It would not be uncommon for me to stay up till two or three in the morning answering everybody’s questions.
“But I would not have it any other way,” she explained.
Over the weekend, Louise nabbed the award for Most Influential Fashion Blogger at the Irish Blogger Association Awards, and she was up against some of the biggest names in the industry.
“It was the last award of the night. It was quite a big award.

“I was absolutely floored when they called out my name, it was really lovely,” she added.
The news comes after Louise previously opened up about the pressures of being a plus-size model.
