Rebecca and Drew - Insignia does REAL French cuffs? Looks like it will cost me a small fortune, but I'm SOOOO there! ;-)

Michelle Obama Responds To McQueen Dress Saga: 'Women, Wear What You Love'
Words to remember ladies - at the end of the day wear what YOU love! (I agree - this should be printed on a T-Shirt! ;-) )

Okay I think....
This is a fascinating idea...
Rebecca and Drew
If you've read my blog in the past you're probably aware that I love and swear by a good shirt! However, like most ladies, finding one that fits well is, to say the least, a challenge!
So when I came across this site link, I had to take a look! Reading through their site, I think it's a good attempt to address one of the constant issues with women's shirts - the gap issue right at the bust line. They try to address this by using what they call the Trio Fit sizing method. Since this is a different approach, they have also put up a series of very good videos to explain just how it works:
In addition to shirts, they also sell shirt dresses - using the same method for sizing.
I'm seriously thinking of giving them a try through, to be honest, I'm thinking this method will not work for me - along with being narrow in the shoulders, I've got the 2 sizes body problem - small up top, wide below. (However, when I stepped through the order process, just as a test, I see that they offer additional customizing if you order their Insignia line - so there might be opportunity to address the shirt for those hips! ;-) )
Still I might give it a go - the quest for the perfect fitting shirt continues! ;-)

I've finally gotten it through my head that I need to have just about everything if not tailored than at least altered to have any hope of off the rack fitting me reasonably well! Amy is giving some nice tips on how to handle those hemlines!

So-called gray hair makeover - Rock the Silver
So-called gray hair makeover - Rock the Silver
Interesting take on covering the gray! (Full disclose: I dyed my hair for the first time in years right around my birthday in Dec. I have to admit, I didn't really like it at first. It didn't really look like me - or at least the me I have become. I've gotten used to it - but not sure I'll do it again! :-/ )

H&M Launches New Plus Line - Inclusive Madison Plus
H&M Launches New Plus Line - Inclusive Madison Plus - YES! ;-)
Yes I know - the styles are a bit young. However, if H&M sees a market for this size range, they may start selling a wider range of their clothing in those sizes - which would great for the 50+ plus sized gal!
