Review: Girl with Curves for Lane Bryant Collection
Hi! Coming to you super quickly to share 4 items I ordered from the Lane Bryant for Lane Bryant collection. If you follow me on Instagram, you're probably OVER me talking about it. But it's good for many reasons!Here's why it's a big deal:I was 4 for 4: Do you know how rare it is that I keep every single item in an order?!
