Spring - New Beginings

Posted by WinterWomen on Friday, March 23, 2012

Outerwear for Curvy Women

Posted by WinterWomen on Wednesday, February 22, 2012

For many women, shopping for stylish clothes that fit well is a chore at best and a nightmare at worst. Women come in many shapes and sizes, and not every style is right for every body.As a customer service representative, I get a fair number of calls from self-described “curvy” women who have trouble finding the right outerwear. Confession time: I’m curvy as well.  I wear a size 12/14. I can ...
