Dear Lane Bryant, Where is the COLOR?

Dear Lane Bryant,

I feel we have an amazing relationship. You are always there for me when I need you. Whether I need a new pair of jeans, jacket for work or a little retail therapy, you are there giving me all I need.  You shower me with lovely gifts, $25 off of $75, $50 off of $125, “Real Women Dollars” and my absolute favorite 50% off clearance! You’re the best! So you can imagine how excited I was when I heard that you were opening a Cacique Lifestyle store at the Newport Centre Mall in Jersey City (NJ). I mean I don’t even own a bra that isn't Cacique. I love that you have it all; lace, boy shorts, thongs, strips, pock dots and all sorts of bold colors and prints.

So you must understand my absolute disappointment when I walked into Cacique Lifestyle at the Newport Centre Mall. What happened?!? Don't get me wrong, I love the Sophie Theallet collection and everything at the store, especially the layout, but it was boring! 

I feel you have come such a long way and are so far from boring! I expected more, especially from you. I want more then a pink bra! Throughout the years your style has grown and changed encouraging me to do the same. To be bold, to be fearless in all I wear! Everything at this store was lovely, but can a girl get a little color? Yes, black is sexy and elegant, but where was the red, hot pink, coral, cobalt blue, turquoise, army green and the rest of the rainbow?  Imagine the Lace-Up Garter Belt in deep red, the Lace Garter Belt in fuchsia, or the Lave Bodice Chemise in coral and the Sheer Lace Halter Babydoll in a rich purple!  

I want more! We want more and who but you to create it?

Sincerely,
Paulaska

Thinking of the BIG & TALL ❤ ❤ ❤

I was having a conversation with this amazing teddy bear (heyyy boo!) and realized that though we are more accepting of the plus-size man, the big teddy bear and overall the “big & tall”, their options for fashion are almost non-existent! I thought we had a limited selection as plus size women of stores, designers, fashion bloggers, and so on, but it is enormous compared to the options men have.   As I did a little research, I came across a great article,  “Why are there no plus-size male models?” .   Which was something I had honestly never paid any mind to.   This article sheds light on the reality of the double standards we have in our society.    Mark Simpson was quoted saying, “Part of the reason why there are no plus-size male models is that there are no politics behind it. It’s not a controversial issue in the same way that it is for women. Men are objectified all the time in the media, but it’s not called ‘obje...

5 Reasons Why Dascha Polanco Can Do No Wrong!

There is no question that the women from Netflix's Original Series “Orange Is The New Black” have taken the world by storm.  Slaying every red carpet and award show, while leaving us at the edge of our seats waiting for more.  Dascha Polanco is one of my absolute favorites and I’ve clearly added her to my  “Can’t Do No Wrong" list. One she is... Fearless!  I mean not too many women can pull off these hair color changes and still look flawless. Two she is... Real! In every interview and appearance, Dascha stays true to herself.  Always showing us a little of her humble yet silly and sassy side.   Three she is... Curvylicious! There is no doubt that Dascha has curves for days! She is honest about her challenges with her body image, but still  embraces every curve.  Four she is... Proud! Dascha is definitely proud of her Dominican roots and rich culture from her upbringing in Brooklyn and Miami.  She represe...
