Hi everyone or no one! I am a first time blogger and I want to try and help out all the women out there who are not the perfect shape and need help as I do! I want to find out which labels cater to the pear shaped ladies or apple shaped ladies or any shape ladies and make it easier to find great fashions to add to our closets without spending hours and hours in the stores!
I am so frustrated with life right now when I look in my closet. Family is excellent, so I have something great going on. No, it is the clothes situation (and weight) that comes with age. I know, I know, not everyone gets heavier as they get older! I have! I chalk it up to having a wonderful grandmother, who at not really 5' tall as she always said, was built like an apple with arms that would rival any NFL lineman's. Guess what, I inherited most of that (thank goodness I got a little taller than her) plus her love for food, excellent cooking skills (at least in my mind - butter is my very best friend!), being able to eat even when I am deathly sick, and a non-existent metabolism. GREAT! I have been fighting my weight all my life and now that I am older, I also have to fight gravity!!!!
Which brings me to my reason for blogging. I have heard so many ladies complain (me being the loudest) about not being able to find clothes that are comfortable, that fit right and are stylish. I am on a search for the necessary pieces in my wardrobe that all the experts (what makes them the expert of my world or yours?) say I need. A little black dress, a great pair of jeans, excellent fitting undergarments (well, I agree with them there!), a great suit with a skirt or pants, and a few good sweaters and tops (well maybe they are right about this). Seems easy enough........HA!!!!! All the clothes are created for perfect 20 somethings or people who are wafer thin and 6 feet tall (well, maybe 5'5" because I am 5'7" and all the jeans and pants hit at my ankle. What about us "normal" sized people who are not perfectly proportioned? I am going to start a search and blog about how things fit, if they will fit an apple shape, a pear shape or what ever shape you have and hopefully help out all ladies who don't have the time to find great clothes that fit properly and look great. Stay tuned and let me know what you all think!!!!!
