BOHO CHIC
Another hit of the season are the bell sleeves or at least sleeves with lot of movement and volume. This is something I love as all the attraction is paid to my arms and this type of sleeves flatter curvy girls. This lovely dress in wrinkled cotton or cheesecloth was purchased last September so I…

A WOMAN IN A GREY CAPE
