I received this gorgeous french balconette bra and lace cheeky set from Cacique Intimates and I had to share! The lace up front and scalloped edges are so beautiful, and I’m absolutely living for the periwinkle shade. I feel like it would look amazing on so many different skin tones!

10 YEARS AND COUNTING
Guys…TODAY marks the 10-year anniversary of Curvy Girl Chic! I wish I had paid attention to this upcoming milestone so I could share some cute, celebratory photos, or SOMETHING, but alas, I didn’t even realize it until I sat down at work today. A couple years ago, I unpublished the truly CRINGE-WORTHY content from the early days of this blog, but today, I went back into what are now drafts to look at what I had shared with you all. Were the outfits embarrassing? Yes. Was the writing crappy? Absolutely. (TBH, my writing is still terrible. :P) Do I ever regret starting this little old website a decade ago? NEVER.

UNITE FOR A CAUSE WITH TAMPAX
Earlier this month, I got the amazing opportunity to partner with Tampax to donate 40,000 tampons to the charity of my choice in honor of Menstrual Hygiene Day! Tampax partnered with several influencers to donate a total of one million tampons to various charities and organizations focused on providing much needed items to women in…
BUSTING THE ONE SIZE FITS ALL MYTH
As a plus size woman, trust me when I say, the concept of “One Size Fits All” items is a Total. Joke. I mean honestly, are you really trying to sell me on the idea that an item will fit the same on my size 20 body as it does on a size 2? Common…

Sometimes, it can feel like Mother Nature is taking over your life. Your period rolls around and you just want to lay on the couch in your sweatpants, eating all the things and doing nothing for 5 days straight! In other instances, you’re in the mood to go about your daily life and have fun,…
