The famous black pants drama

So, I can't tell you how many times I have walked in and out of stores trying to find the perfect black dress pants.  It can be painful trying to find ones that fit your hips that actually fit you in the waist as well.

I really have not shopped at the gap in years but I must say over the last couple months, they have some great new items.  One of my fav new items are "The Premium Black Pant Collection".  It's 7 different fits for all different body types and styles.  Not only do they fit great but they are affordable at $59.50!!

I'm loving the "Curvy pants" with a heel and "Perfect Trouser" for a flat.

A little about me......

My name is Claire, I live in Vancouver and have a successful careers in dental sales.  I have an amazing man in my life that makes me smile every day and have lots of great people in my life that love me.
Life is good!

I'm a women with curves and this is my story........

I have struggled with my weight my whole life.  I have tried every diet on the market and at the end of the day I know its all about healthy living through food and exercise.  At the age of 27, my weight seemed to stabilize and I really started to embrace my curves.  That is when I started plus modelling and started to view my body in a different way.  I never thought I would be modelling later in life or would I ever imagine doing photo shoots in everything from lingerie to swim suites.

One of my best friend's Aimee got me the first lingerie shoot I ever did with Hips & Curves.  I felt like I was a deer in head lights in front of the camera, half naked for the first time.  But it was so much fun and I am thankful for such a great first experience with the H&C team!!

I have an agent in Vancouver now and just model for fun. I call it "great shoe money"!!

My love for clothes and shopping with curves has always been a challenge.  I believe every women should learn how to dress for their body type.  I feel like I have become pretty good at picking out clothes that make me feel great.  So I thought I would share my tips and finds though a blog.  Like I mentioned before, I might add this and that as I go.



Dressing with Curves

Over the last week, I have turned into a blog junkie!  I have been reading women's blogs about fashion, there lives and what ever crossed their mind that day.  So I was inspired to start my own blog.

When I started to think about what I wanted to blog, lots of things came to mind.  But I figured I would start on a topic I know well....it might incorporate this and that over time....... but I thought I would start with "Dressing with Curves" and see where it goes from there!
