It’s been a while; did you miss me? Let’s talk about bras… well, one in particular.

We’re almost 2 weeks into the New Year… how’s it going for you so far? With the snow, bitter-cold temperatures and still feeling lethargic, I’ve spent the weekends curled up on the couch with Ken, binging our favorite movies and TV shows.

However, with a limited clothing budget, I had to wait on the combination of extra cash and a good sale. You know how it is, right?

It’s a topic I’ve written on several times before when Old Navy, Kelly Osbourne and Melissa McCarthy launched collections that did not fit all bodies. I’m… Continue reading #AllMeansALL!!!
