Style your shape and look fabulous

I’m an odd shape. Its what actually led me to writing this blog. I was having so much difficulty finding something to wear that works for me that I just had to find a better way to make choices. One of my biggest issues is that I have big breasts. Seriously, really big. It’s the [...]

I’ve always wanted a really outstanding wardrobe filled with clothes that I love. Yeah, awesome. Unfortuantely I find the process really challenging.

Susana Monaco skirt – $47.40 from JBandme.com I’ve had quite a few queries about pencil skirts and pear shapes so wanted to address that. I love this awesome pencil skirt and it’s definitely something that I might wear and I’m a pear shape. But then not all pear shapes are created equal. Technically I am [...]
