Many of our readers feel frustrated when it comes to shopping. Some say because of their “curvy” figure, nothing seems to fit. When they go to stores for “plus size” they feel they have to sacrifice style for fit.
From a fashionista’s standpoint we can sure relate! However, we have the solution for you! Black Cat Plus was started by our friend Jodell Raymond (and fellow Fashion Flash member) who says she has been a size 18W for many years but loves to dress up! Now she spends considerable time and effort searching for designers in the U.S., Canada, China, Australia and Europe who feature clothing that is fashionable and in line with the latest

We’re always on the lookout for new and beautiful products so meet handbag designer, Cinzia Moniaci of Moni Moni handbags!
Cinzia started her handbag line because she could not find a bag that fit her style.
You see, Cinzia’s first love is music and she is a singer/songwriter. You might have heard her since she wrote 2 songs and performed on the Dawson’s Creek sound track!
When going to gigs she didn’t want to be stuck carrying around a stuffy designer bag and was frustrated she could not find one that looked hip, cool and gently worn in. So she began making them for herself. After getting so many compliments and inquiries about where to buy them, Moni Moni was born.
Enter to win this beautiful, Italian Leather bag from Moni Moni!
Now her designs are on the arms of many celebrities (like Halle Berry) who swear they are their favorite “go to” bags!
Known for their luscious supple Italian leather, gorgeous designs and festive colors, these bags are functional, comfortable and unique!
Millions of women in the U.S. are plagued by night sweats (Nocturnal Hydrosis), the result of hormone imbalance, illness and medication.

This innovative sleepwear collection serves up style plus function thanks to both absorbing and wicking properties – that redirects moisture away from the skin – keeping women dry, well-rested and refreshed. Fun, flirty, affordable, and available in a range of sizes, the Sweet Dreams by Dry Babe® line arrived in December for the holiday season.

Dull, dry, damaged looking hair. I (JoJami) have been noticing that my hair is not as shiny as it once was…could it be that being over 40 and dying my hair over the years has caused it to look frizzy and lifeless?
There are several things that can cause your hair to loose it’s luster:
Home vs. salon hair coloring. Personally I have noticed that when I color my hair at home it tends to dry it out more than when I have it done professionally.
Using the right hair products. There are lots of choices out there to use, but the best thing to do is to make sure that if you do color your hair you use a product specifically for hair that has been processed. It will have more moisturizer in it.
Try not to wash your hair every day. Daily washing can really stress out your hair. Try skipping a day or two between washings.
Too much heat. Do you dry your hair with a blow dryer on high heat? That can really give those fragile strands a workout! Try using the hot then cool button to alternate the heat on and off.
Use that little cone on the hairdryer! Most blowdryers have a little “cone” that you can pop on and off the end of the dryer. This little piece is key in keeping your hair from getting the frizzes.
Curl or Straightening? After all the drying now you are probably going to be curling or straightening your hair. Make sure you add a little more product into your hair to protect it from the hot irons!
