Hello, I'm Karen Mitzi;
This is me trying to get that next Best Deal for You. I like to consider myself the Queen of gefort. I have been aPlus Size gal all my life. As you may know, it's not always easy trying to find the best quality, best fitting clothes that didn't put a hurtin' on your wallet. I figured others out there have the same problem and I thought "Hey, maybe I can help others by developing a website that ladies can find what they need and shop privately. Check out my About MePage!
So that's how Mitzi's Fashion Boutiquecame to be.I developed this quide to help you make better decisions as you look through mine or any clothes store. Despite the fact that I have one of the best prices in town (wink, wink);you shouldn't buy clothes JUST because of the price.
As the self proclaimed "Queen of gefort", to look and feel good is your ultimate goal!
Also, you are not fooling anyone by wearing those Over-Sized, Loose-Fitting Clothes! This can backfire on you and actually make you look Wider!
gefort can be stylish and take 10lbs off of you!
Wearing Black / Navy / Charcoal is a gemon way to look slimmer but you have Other options.
With every goal gees smaller steps:
Step 1: Show Off Your Best Features.
Step 2: Minimize your "Not So Best" Features.
Simple, yes? But Wait! BEFORE we play Dress Up, there are a couple of thingsI want you do:
Stand Straight. Look Up. Chest Out! Good posture is the key to looking and feeling good. Why do you think those models balance books on their heads? It's not so that the information might permeate their skulls.
2. Choose your Body Type. There are Basically 4 Types
Top Heavy - you are more rounded with weight evenly distributed and appear more heavy on the top than the bottom.
Bottom Heavy - you are wider at the hips and slimmer at the shoulders with a small bust.
Straight/Even - you are evenly distributed weight and smaller bust.
Hourglass - you are larger in the hips and bust with a small waist.
Alright - Now Let's Begin!
You picked your Shape above now Scroll Down to find Your Type:

OK... I know it is hard to Pigeon Hole you into a Body Shape so here are a few more ideas for other body parts...
Necks:
High collars and short necklaces shortens the neck
Legs:
A scarf or belt that hangs down toward the legs will make the legs appear longer
Knitted texture, lace, floras, prints, and plaids can assist in creating an illusion
Shoes with straps shortens the legs.
Torso:
The torso can be shortened or narowed with seam lines, belts, bows and collars.
Don't Forget to Accessorize!
Shoes depend on your height more than your weight
