First off, I want to applaud Prada for showcasing a variety of body types during their runway show. And this model is more shapely than your average stick thin, teenage runway model, but if this is what the fashion industry considers curvy, we’re all in trouble.
My dark under eye circles have been the bane of my existence since I was 12. Is the cause lack of sleep? Dehydration? Sinus issues? Stress? Who the hell knows. But there they are, every day, telling the world that I am an exhausted working Mom.
Every now and again, I spot a piece on sale and I have to have it. I need it. I cannot live without it. Recently, I spotted a jersey tee at Boden that takes a casual top to the next level, and I just needed to share.
Sloane loves the pool. She jumps from the deck into the water with a crash, never considering her own safety, only to emerge on the surface, shouting “Again!” The pool is my daughter’s happy place. But no place where I need to wear a swimsuit in public is a happy one for me.

The Crowdstrike/Microsoft Meltdown forced me to take a few days off this weekend. No laptop. No billable hours. So we packed Sloane up for a visit to a local llama farm, stopped by the pool, went for coffee, etc. Few things are as funny as watching a 23-month old feed carrots to a ravenous rescue […]
I think those clothes look just as good on those models as they do on the negative zero models. I don’t buy the "clothes hang better on a thinner body" BS at all. YOU wear the clothes, not vise versa.
WOW! Kudos to Prada- but I agree- size 8 is curvy? I guess it could be worse if Prada would have used the "plus size" in lieu of curvy.
Prada rocks! Finally, we average-sized ladies can get a sense of how runway fashions would REALLY look! Brilliant, just brilliant!

Scary, indeed, especially as that pic is of Doutzen Kroes, who is a size 4-6! For better or worse, the average American is a size 14. Even for myself, as a busty size 10-12, I find it hard to find good quality, well made, stylish and affordable clothing. It’s difficult to visualize "a look" when all the examples one sees are of size 0-2.
