    ByHolly123 April 9, 2019 9:15 am

    A few weeks ago, Elisabeth sent this article from The Curvy Fashionista with a simple question attached: “What do you think about this?” If you’re not up on the latest plus-size marketing debates, the article covers the founder of Universal Standard arguing that the plus-size term is dead. And that body positivity and size access…

    3 Reasons to Shop Plus Size Stores, Whatever Your Size

    ByHolly123 November 17, 2016 8:47 am

    A few weeks ago, I found myself in a fashion dilemma. I wanted to update my wardrobe with two basic on trend items: a classy black faux leather dress and a colorful faux leather moto style jacket to wear over everything in case autumn weather ever actually hits New Orleans.

    Elila: Fab Full Figure Bras and Lingerie to Meet Your Fashion Needs

    You don’t have to look hard to find beautiful full figure bras and lingerie anymore. Part of it is due to the rise of the full figure fashion market and vocal plus size fashion bloggers. After all, you’ve got to wear something underneath all those cute styles.

    Support for the Full Bust: 12 Must Read Blogs

    Byelisabeth June 26, 2013 1:14 pmMay 31, 2025 5:26 pm

    It’s no joke. Women blessed (or cursed, depending on the day) with a full bust have a harder time finding the right fit in bras and, by extension, fashionable clothes.
