'My Body, My Style' Video: Tall Women's Clothing, a Casual Outfit

by Sarah Cristobal (Subscribe to Sarah Cristobal's posts)

Sonja is a tall woman with curves (meaning a big bust, small waist, and a full posterior). In this episode of "My Body, My Style" fashion guru Sam Saboura helps her to find a good casual outfit.

Saboura recommends that women who share Sonja's stature avoid tops that stop at the fullest part of the hip. (It will only exaggerate fullness.) Instead he suggests floaty blouses that can help define the waistline with a belt.

Whether you're pear shaped, have a long torso, or are full-figured, you won't want to miss the rest of our tips for finding the best clothes for your shape, in the "My Body, My Style" series.

That was awesome! She looked like a Tickle Me Plant before and after you Tickle It!

The leaves instantly fold and even the branches droop when you Tickle It!

You would never think it was the same plant. See video Great gift and easy to grow

Search Tickle Me Plant or find it here Http://tr.im/Ek6C

Doesn't anyone else besides me find it extremely curious and almost diabolical that AOL has "Disabled" comments for important subjects of National Interest, and now only offers comments on trash diversion subjects like this!? Isn't also curios that this took place almost immediately after citizen opposition to Washington DC and Barrack Obama began to significantly mount!!! AOL is censoring FREE SPEECH among it's users and the Citizens of the USA wishing to make their voices heard. SHAME on AOL!!!! SHAME on You for being outright oppressive, and playing ball to such tripe and Dogma in Washington DC!!!!!
