Lee Lee’s Valise Mentioned in Time Out New York

"Brooklyn

This plus-size boutique fills a need for stores catering to larger ladies. Bedecked with three chandeliers, the quaint parlor carries trendy garb from a slew of companies including Tadashi, Donna Ricco and B&Lu—all in sizes from 12 to 24.

Full-figured lasses can pluck flattering lingerie from Spanks, Prima Donna and Hanky Panky. 368 Court St at President St, Carroll Gardens (718-246-5337)"

I wrote about Lee Lee's Valise last summer not long after she opened. Lisa (AKA Lee Lee) is very enthusiastic about fashion for fuller figures and her place is a truly groovy hangout for any fashionable fat girl.

One thing that Time Out New York did NOT mention is that Lee Lee’s Valise is having a Super Bowl Sales Party! She will be serving champagne and appetizers for the girls who want to shop before, during and after the game.

I would recommend that we meet at Lee Lee's for shopping and champagne on Sunday but I expect to be winning my office pool and feel a need to stay glued to the TV set. But you should definitely go on Super Bowl Sunday because Lee Lee is so totally awesome.

Hi,

I love your post. I think it's really great that curves are now being recognised in the media/fashion industry. It's really great to see so many women opening up and celebrating their curves, which is why i need your help!

My name is Sophia Jenner, and I am one of the lucky 30 finalists for Star in a Bra 2011.

Curvy Kate runs the Star in a Bra competition every year to find a new curvy, non-model girl to promote their brand for D plus size bras.

I would really love it if you could vote for me, as I believe women should be appreciated whatever their age, shape or size. If you think I can help promote curves all over the world, then please help get me through to the final 10 girls.

You can vote on: www.starinabra.com
And if you're interested, you can hear more about the competition on my blog: www.sophiajenner.wordpress.com

Thanks so much for reading

Lots of Love
