Book Review & Giveaway: The Curvy Girls Guide to Style Vol. 1

One of my favorite past times is curling up on my loveseat with a bottle of wine and a good book. As outgoing and social as I am, for me there is sometimes no better time spent than with self. Like many of you I was introduced to Chastity Garner via her blog and when I read she was publishing her first book I was excited…. until I saw the title and I thought “what is this exactly”.  Is it her blog in a book? If so, I can read that for free. After some research and my interview with her for SKORCH Magazine I found out we were all wrong.

 The Curvy Girls Guide to Style Vol 1 is titled perfectly. It is a beginners or even those with a little experience guide to looking your best. There are two things that makes Chastity’s book worth buying (1) its written by one of us for us.  I don’t know about you but sometimes I just get so sick and tired of people with no clue on how it feels to be plus size telling how I should wear my clothes. The options are practical well the power panty is a bit much but honey it works. (2) its an easy read. I didn’t struggle thru the pages. Her personality comes thru and you feel like her in a conversation. 

In celebration of the release of her book The Curvy Spot is bringing a copy of The Curvy Girls Guide to Style into your home.  Just leave me a comment about your style and how Chasisty can give you a few pointers… A winner will be chosen on July 1st!
