Are You Bathing Suit Ready?

Tips To Help You Get There

Spring is in full swing and summer time is fast approaching.  For many, this means weddings, BBQ’s and trips to the shore.  Are you bathing suit ready?  Whether you want to lose two pounds or twenty, AboutCurves has some tips to help you on your journey.

Tip #1 – Set a goal and post it where you can see it every day.  When you see it right away in the morning, it will start your day off in the right mind set.  Post it on the bathroom mirror, the refrigerator, or your computer monitor.

Tip #2 – Plan your meals and make a schedule.  This way you know exactly what you need when you go to the store and you won’t over shop.  Also, when you schedule your meals at home you are less likely to stop for fast food or go out to eat, because you know you have food at home.

Tip #3 – Make snack packs for work.  Put together veggies, fruits, and nuts and take them to work with you.  This way, when you get hungry, you’ll have a healthy snack and not be tempted by the vending machine.

Tip #4 – Eat breakfast every morning.  This will jumpstart your metabolism and give you energy for your day.

Tip #5 – Exercise 10-15 minutes every day.  If you get up and move you burn calories.  Take the stairs instead of the elevator at work.  Park at the opposite end of the shopping mall and walk fast.  Walk around the block every night after dinner.  Every little bit helps.

Tip #6 – Make healthy substitutions when you go out to eat.  Change out the French Fries for vegetables or brown rice.

Tip #7 – Find a diet buddy or friend to talk to everyday.  Calling, emailing, or texting holds you accountable with the choices you make.  It’s also great to give and receive words of encouragement.

We hope these tips will help you maintain a healthy lifestyle and make you bathing suit ready.  So, get out there and have a fun and active summer with your friends and family.

A Plus Size Babydoll

Will Put The Spark Back In Your Life

If you’re heading out of town for a romantic weekend, be sure to pack a plus size babydoll.  Babydolls are so fun and flirty.   Your lover will know what you have in mind when they see you in it.  It’s the second most important thing you should bring with you.  What is the first? Your sweetie, of course!

It is so important to steal a little time away with the one you love.  Everyone gets caught up in the day to day of life.  We lose sight of romance and can take our partner for granted.  Let’s face it, screaming kids in the back of the minivan are far from romantic.  Every couple needs time to recharge and find the spark again.  Whether you fly off to another city or just get a hotel room on the other side of town, take the time and it will be worth it.   Below are some of our favorite babydolls that will make your time away extra special.Plus Size Babydoll | Leopard & Lace Babdoll SetThis Leopard & Lace Babydoll Set will bring out the animal in you and it will make your lover say Hello Kitty!

Best Plus Size Lingerie For You

Depends On Your Needs

If you’ve never bought or worn lingerie before, you’re probably wondering what the best plus size lingerie is for you.  Everyone is different and everyone has different needs.  Are you looking for something to spice up your love life or for something super comfy to sleep in every night?  At About Curves, we have something for everyone.

When it comes to sleepwear, it’s all about comfort.  Many people love the camisole top and short set.  They are great for lounging on the couch before bedtime.  You can throw them in the wash over and over again, which makes them easy to care for.  And, they come in fun prints and colors.Best Plus Size Lingerie | Fabulous Floral Shorty Pajamas

You may find you enjoy sleeping in a chemise.  A chemise like Our Perfect Purple Chemise is something every woman should have in her collection.  They are perfect for sleeping and for seducing your lover.  You will find them in many different colors and fabrics.

Now, for those of you wanting to spice up the bedroom, you should try a flirty babydoll.  There are so many different types from which to choose.  Many have underwire that adds lift and support to the garment.  Sheer fabrics and soft lace are always popular features to have when seduction is on your agenda.  Let’s face it, you’re not going to wear a babydoll to bed every night, so take some risks when picking something out.  Go super short, a hot color, or something really sheer.  You will see the excitement in your lover’s eyes and get a great reaction from them.Best Plus Size Lingerie | Simply Devine Babydoll Set

It might surprise you to find out that peignoir sets are one of our top sellers.  You can choose either the shorter chemise version or the long nightgown.   Having a matching robe adds coverage to your arms and creates an elegant look.  They make an excellent gift for the mature woman.Best Plus Size Lingerie | Stunning Cobalt Nightgown Peignoir Set

How To Find Plus Size Discount Lingerie

Who Doesn’t Love A Deal

If you’re like me, you’re always on the hunt for plus size discount lingerie.  All of my friends know that I am the biggest shopaholic in our group.  You may be surprised to find out that I’m not in debt up to my eyeballs.  I have a rule that I have to pay my bill off at the end of each month.  This helps keep me on budget and makes me think about how much I really need an item.  Don’t get me wrong, I can do some damage at a warehouse or sample sale, but I budget and plan for those.  I just love the hunt for a great deal.

Finding discounts and sales takes patients and skill, and thankfully I am a very skilled huntress.  I have my favorite online stores I like to shop every day, while others I let them come to me.  I’m talking about email blasts and newsletters that companies send out.  If you haven’t signed up for emails, you’re really missing out.  Many retailers will send out an email blast with a good discount in it to only their subscribers.

We do it at About Curves.  We will send out a sale or a discounted item and it is only for those who subscribe.  People always tell me I don’t sign up because it creates so much junk email.  I don’t totally disagree, but it’s in those emails that I’ve saved the most money.  Plus, it takes me only a few minutes per day to go through delete all my emails.  A 50-70% off coupon is totally worth a few extra emails.

When I shop my favorite online sites, I always check out their sale or clearance page.  Many companies put their end of season closeouts along with items that they have on sale for that week.  It’s a great place to find fantastic deals.

We all have difficult lives, balancing all of the demands of work and family, and we deserve to indulge ourselves and be happy.  If you’re someone that needs to live on a budget or just love a good deal, I hope some of these tips will be useful to you.  If you need help finding the right style for you or need help with sizing, our knowledgeable staff is here to help you.
