Last week was pretty hectic. I had a lot of contracted work to complete, it was my sister’s birthday, and it was the week that Girl Scout cookies arrived. As the Troop Cookie Manager, we had to go pick them up (over 200 cases), I had to speak at this week’s meeting, and all weekend…
You’d think I wouldn’t love off-the-shoulder tops because I have a large bust and require a bra with some serious hardware to have the breasts look the way I like.

When I went to New York City for NYFW, I had the pleasure of visiting the headquarters for Pari Passu, a luxury plus-size clothing brand.

I love the wide-leg pant trend of the past few seasons. At first, I felt I couldn’t wear it because I am short and curvy. Then I thought… who cares? I deserve to have fun with my clothes and be comfortable. So I bought one pair… and then another and another. I’d dress them up…

Tuesday I had meetings in the city. There would be walking, possibly some photos, I wanted to look casual yet polished. My go-to for such situations is jeans, a blazer, and an interesting pair of shoes. These are all wardrobe classics for me and have been for years. The silhouettes may change slightly as new…
