Hey Dolls,
I'm adding a new segment to my blog which is the "My Curves are Beautiful Spotlight". With this spotlight segment I want to shine a positive light on plus size women that are doing there thang within the fashion industry. Whether it be modeling, blogging, makeup artistry, etc you ladies deserve to have center stage. For today's spotlight I'm shining a light on two wonderful, amazing sisters, Linc and Juice. This set of twins, to me definitely embrace the phrase- "When life gives your curves, flaunt them". And that's what their doing in photographs and down the runway their flaunting and giving life to those who need it. : )
