MINX FASHION SHOPPE
Hi again!
Thank you for the fabulous jeans that I won. I am actually writing to tell you I wear them every day now (when I am not dressed for work), and with that black top you picked out for me! I even told my husband not to think me too odd for it. He totally understands the need for wearing the perfect outfit, even if it IS daily! LOL! I strut around in this. I actually feel like I look beautiful and not trying to hide anything! Yay!
I have been trying to get back to my normal proportion again-and it's rough! I wore my pregnancy clothing up to 10 months after having a baby (because regular clothing looked so bizaar on me). But when I DID finally go to buy normal clothing (because now my pregnancy clothing looks funny and people keep asking me if I am pregnant again!) and bought things that were larger but when I wear them now, they look too big...but the sizes under them were too small! What a waste of money! And I went to The Gap! You would think a place like that would work but...when I tried on all the various things I chose, I stood in that mirror and cried! I swear-and I NEVER cry. I was so miserable and the kids that worked there didn't understand anything enough to help me. Not their fault really. Maybe the clothing is just not that great as far as fitting people.
But when I went to YOUR boutique, that changed. Your clothing is super comfy (even though I just got the top with the jeans and that dress so far which, by the way, I have worn 4 times already!!!) My Mom was even really impressed and she is VERY honest with me! She told me I should go there for all my clothing from now on. I told her how you just looked at me and found my fit. The thing too is that I don't like shopping, really. It's so much work for me. I like having a personal shopper there by my side- like you!
So yes, I look very much forward to coming back! I might not be able to do a whole wardrobe at once, but I sure will get as much as I can each time. I am out in North Long Beach and rarely get out because of my little one and my work. I am a tad lazy but that is the only reason you don't see more of me!
Sorry this e-mail is so long! I actually have been meaning to write you every day (especially when I reach for my jeans and black top I say, "Ack! I gotta write that e-mail!")
This is why this e-mail is so long. Because I am so grateful that you and the clothing I got gave me hope again.
THANK YOU!!!!

I love this store. The last time I was here I spent $300 on clothes. All 3 of my favorite shirts are from here, and my favorite dress, too. Jacqueline, the owner, has worked in the fashion industry for a long time, and has a great eye for cute clothes. The thing that I like the most is that she has a fantastic selection of beautiful, fashionable plus size clothes as well as normal sizes. I hope this store sticks around, because it really is a gem!

I am listening to your talk show as I write this. I live in Connecticut and when I recently went to visit my sister in CA I came across your shop. When we were walking through Seal Beach I expressed my sadness at how I can never shop in these little towns because none of the clothes every fit me (I'm about a size 20). We walked around for a little bit and then I came across your shop!!!!! I was so excited I could hardly contain myself and ran into your store. I bought 3 of the coolest shirts I've come across! Thank you for showing all sizes can be sold in the same hip place! I also really enjoyed the young lady who waited on me while I was in the store, she was so helpful.
