Yes, I have another delightful tip for you today. Of course, it's another romcom, but believe me: this one is genuinely fun and a little less cliché than we've seen lately. Last plus point: it's now online on Netflix. So cancel your plans for tonight.

The movie is called Romance in Style and is about Ella, a designer, who wants to convince a big magazine mogul named Derek that he should include more plus-sized fashion in his magazine. Well, I don't want to spoil the ending right away, but of course, these two fall in love. You already know that within the first five seconds of the film. No, even worse: you know it after watching the trailer.

Ella convinces Derek of the power of body positivity and gradually he realizes what a positive influence she has on him — and not just work-related. Romance in Style is super sweet, but not in an annoying way. Originally, this film aired in 2022 on the Hallmark Channel, and if you're familiar with that, you understand how sweet and sugary the film is.

Despite all that, I found it delightful to watch. A case of not thinking too much, chips on the side, tea, and just enjoy.
