<p>One of the mamas here put me onto Kiyonna.com some months back. LOVE it! However, their clothes are NOT made for cold weather, really (company based in SFO). So, I need some stylish and WARM plus-sized clothes suggestions.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>To help you make suggestions: I'm 5'5", wear a 3X on top (which folks have trouble believing, but I've VERY well endowed (42G!) and I strap the girls down in a Wacoal minimizer. 1X-2X on bottom, depending on individual garment. I've pretty much got an hour-glass figure. If the chest can be visually minimized somewhat, so much the better.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I look best in strong colors on top: cobalt blue, hot pink, purple. My bottoms & shoes are always black (makes life easier in the morning). I don't feel comfortable in low-cut tops, but if it's something I wear a cami under, that's OK. Button-front shirts are a no-no, due to breasts being majorly different sizes. A button-front top over a pull-over is OK (such as a cardigan worn over a shell). I cannot walk in high heels. Comfy everything is much better. Cannot wear wool (other than my winter coat). I'm often warm, so layers are better...but I live in the Great Lakes region, so it can get COLD in the winter. I do have several lovely patterned shawls from Target I can wear over things that aren't totally warm. Skirts or pants OK, tight/short things, not.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>There's a possible new guy...
