"Does sexy have a size?"

Have you seen the new Lane Bryant ad?  It's got people talking.  Writing about it for Oprah.com, Karen Salmansohn asks, "Does sexy have a size?".  I'm excited to see people talking about this, and even more excited to hear it talked about in a way that isn't just saying that 'skinny is ugly and fat is sexy'.  These black and white presentations ALWAYS miss the point.  Sexiness and size are unrelated.  Period.  This is at the very core of what MagidahWear stands far.  What are your thoughts?

Skorch Magazine, curvy vs. plus-sized

I'm always encouraged when I find indications that society is becoming more accepting of curves, and that fashion and design houses are starting to recognize that just because a girl is curvy doesn't mean she doesn't want to look good. This idea that women come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes is at the core... of the MagidahWear design philosophy. That said, I'm really looking forward to a time when we can talk about 'curves' without it being a euphemism for 'large'. Just because a girl is curvy doesn't mean she's plus-sized. We have plenty of customers buying our Lavish and Dazzling sizes... these girls are curvy, but they aren't big. Plus is a size, curvy is a shape. They aren't the same. Until that great Booty Revolution happens, here's some lovely reading for your fashion-minding pleasure! http://www.skorchblog.com/

Every successful business requires successful partnerships with vendors, and without that, your business will fail. One of our most successful ongoing vendor relationships is with our web hosting service, Acorn Host. Their support has been exemplary, our uptime has been 100%, they are locally and woman owned, and they use green-sourced power. On top of all that, the owner of the company describes herself as a 'happiness advocate' and a 'joy ninja'. How could you not love this???

Acorn Host and it's owner, Emma McCreary, exemplify in many ways the same business ethos that we work towards here at MagidahWear. 


If you're looking for a web host, I cannot recommend Acorn Host highly enough! Also, be sure to check out Emma's excellent blog, the Tao of Prosperity

MagidahWear is not about size, it's about shape. We reject the 'plus size' label, because you don't have to be big to have curves. That said, we always appreciate it when a major media outlet reminds the world just how sexy curves really are, no matter what they call it. http://models.com/v-magazine/v-size-2.html

Just FYI, this shoot may be a little racy for the workplace, so exercise caution if you're in the office.

Third time is the charm -- I will be performing tomorrow in the finals of the Belly Dancer of the Year  competition!!  The "naked dress" was mostly a hit, although one judge didn't like it because it looked like I was naked.  That is what a mesh dress with a nude liner is supposed to do.....so I guess it worked a little too well.  Thanks Emily!
