Spring Dress Fever Continues

I love spring dress season: I’ve been stricken with a feverish urge to get out of these jeans for a while and just look plain ol’ hot in wrap dresses, sleeveless shifts, and long, fluttery gowns, too. I had a crazy shopping attack today and just went wild, and hit up all of my favorite […]

“Celeb Worthy” Style Over at Torrid

I love helping people choose their formal wear! Rich satin dresses, black lace, and sumptuous formal fabrics are all a treat, but what I like are all the teen formal features that are popping up.

Little Black Dress to Match My Wrap

I couldn’t just show off a gorgeous wrap without a beautiful dress to follow! Lately I’ve been trying to do the “basics thing,” but it can get frustrating when you’re surrounded by beautiful plus pieces. It seems like every plus shop around has been taking their designer creativity in strides, and that’s so exciting. It’s […]

Will You Be a Plus-Size Bride?

I may already be married, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love browsing through the super-flouncy dresses and veils. (Okay, and I also designed wedding dresses earlier on in my career, too.)
