\"SmartGlamour
\nSmartGlamour<\/a> contacted me a few weeks ago and asked me if I’d like to try out one of their made to fit, body positive looks. I was little hesitant because I had a company reach out to me with a similar pitch before and honestly it was so stressful and so much work to actually get “my sizing” I gave up and walked away.
\n\"SmartGlamour
\nIt’s often hard for companies who make clothing for smaller bodies to just start creating plus size clothing- especially custom fit types. A friend of mine who is a pattern maker once explained to me how hard the process of fitting plus clothes are. After a size 6-8 there is no uniform way the body holds weight, and it gets even more snowflake-like the larger you go.\u00a0 Truly, no plus size body is the same. Hence why most uber fancy designer brands only go up to a 10-12, they’re keeping their fit costs low. \"SmartGlamour
\nThat’s why brands like SmartGlamour, who understand plus bodies and make custom clothing are important. I walked into the situation expecting a nightmare and instead got a pretty dream like experience. They even put up with my constant “can we make this, in this fabric<\/a>?” back and forth. And rather than a straight “no,” they explained why certain fabrics worked better for certain cuts. I LEARNED from them. Bonus.\"SmartGlamour
\nThe look we settled on perfectly suits me. It’s the dreamy neon floral that I was insistent on, but in a cut that’s more flattering for the fabric and me. In short, SmartGlamour’s expertise paid off. \"SmartGlamour
\nIf you’re ready to take the plunge into custom fit clothing, I would give SmartGlamour a try, but with one caveat. Custom clothing only works if you are honest about your body. So if you’re not ready to send a stranger your measurements and talk openly about works for your body type, its not the right path to pursue.<\/p>\n

\"SmartGlamourThat said, if you open up and give it a go the result will be a unique piece, that suits you perfectly. Which is something you just can’t find in a retail store.\u00a0 I feel sassy and special rocking this neon floral look paired with my favorite vintage shades, antique button earrings, and my trusty red New Look<\/a> pumps. Red lip is my go to shade of rouge, Beso All Day Liquid Lipstick by Stila<\/a> Cosmetics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
