Come Over to My New Address

I recently moved to a new blog address and I noticed immediately that the daily visitors dropped dramatically. Did you think that I abandoned you? Never!

Come over to the new site and see my brand new look!

A Celebration of Curves

It's all so exciting. I feel like I just got a new dress for Spring!

Lee Lee’s Valise Mentioned in Time Out New York

"Brooklyn

This plus-size boutique fills a need for stores catering to larger ladies. Bedecked with three chandeliers, the quaint parlor carries trendy garb from a slew of companies including Tadashi, Donna Ricco and B&Lu—all in sizes from 12 to 24.

Full-figured lasses can pluck flattering lingerie from Spanks, Prima Donna and Hanky Panky. 368 Court St at President St, Carroll Gardens (718-246-5337)"

I wrote about Lee Lee's Valise last summer not long after she opened. Lisa (AKA Lee Lee) is very enthusiastic about fashion for fuller figures and her place is a truly groovy hangout for any fashionable fat girl.

One thing that Time Out New York did NOT mention is that Lee Lee’s Valise is having a Super Bowl Sales Party! She will be serving champagne and appetizers for the girls who want to shop before, during and after the game.

I would recommend that we meet at Lee Lee's for shopping and champagne on Sunday but I expect to be winning my office pool and feel a need to stay glued to the TV set. But you should definitely go on Super Bowl Sunday because Lee Lee is so totally awesome.

Big Shout Out: My pal Roberta is a blogging star!




Have you been watching Mad Men on AMC? No? Well my friend my friend Robertathinks you oughta. The writing is smart, the characters are sharp, the plots are interesting and they are winning awards like crazy.

The official Mad Men website has featured Roberta and her sister Deborah's blog as the Mad Men Blog of the Week!

Roberta and Deborah can often be found leaving witty and profound comments on Shapely Prose, so their names might be familiar to you.

They are so in love with this show that they started a blog to proclaim their Mad Men love to the world. It's so cool that they have been noticed and given a corporate high-five by the executives upstairs and I want everyone to know!

Roberta, please don't forget about me when you are attending fancy Hollywood Mad Men parties. I might even watch the show now.

Big Sale at Kiyonna

Two promotions at Kiyonna have just been sent to me by the lovely and talented Yvonne. They are so good I have to give them their own mention.

This is the time to get yourself that wrap dress you've been dreaming about. What can I say about Kiyonna that you haven't already heard? Designed for curves, rather than merely sized-up from a smaller/straighter dress pattern, I find the Kiyonna dresses drape the right way, flow the right way and hug the right way. My curves sure look good in them.

Now go shopping at This Lush Life you sexy thing!
