Shirene Chehrazi from ShopTranslated contacted me last month to sponsor a giveaway for Five Favorite Things; specifically from their INES Collection by Jacqueline Floro. Being a huge fan of the designs I accepted. 
If you are not familiar with this online plus size clothing company:
ShopTranslated is an innovative online boutique for plus size women. We cater exclusively to naturally curvy women who like to let their sexiness and fashion sense shine. There is more to love with curvy women at ShopTranslated: Real Clothing for Women with Real Curves.
Prize Details:
- 2 winners will get the choice of one piece from the INES collection on ShopTranslated (sizing permitted), shipping included.
How to Enter:
For this contest there is the option of one to five entries per person. To get all five entries you must leave a separate comment for each method following these directions:
- Main entry: This one is a must to enter. Please comment below on what you want from the plus size fashion world (not faves from collection).

Stipulations:
Five entries per person are allowed (one per method above)– suspicious entries with the same IP address (you know who you are) will be deleted without notice. The lucky winner will be chosen from the comments at random, using random.org, on November 29, 2010 at 3 pm EST. This giveaway is sponsored by ShopTranslated but I will be confirming the email and mailing address of the winner (so make sure you enter the right email). This giveaway is open to person 18 years and older living in the United States and Canada. Void where prohibited by law. The winner will have two weeks to claim the prize; after which time it will be rewarded to someone else.

I want more clothes that are big on top & big around the bottom but that actually show you have a waist. I have to walk around in belted tents half the time!!

I want clothes that do not look like tents, most plus size clothes have no definition what so ever! Thanks for the chance!
I like classic styles that are designed for a fuller figure – don’t make us look like refrigerator boxes!
One thing I’d like are longer tops that cover the tummy. Also classic clothes, not so many large prints. thanks.
Better proportioned clothing, for one thing…and more subtly sexy clothing. It seems like I can find prairie-wear or ho-tastic stuff, but finding things in between can be a true challenge.
What I want are clothes that look good on MY body. That’s it. I don’t want to be wearing something that my mother would be wearing. I want something fashionable that looks good. It’s gotten better since I was in my teens, but it could get even better than what it is.

More variety and easier access would be great! It would be nice to see a lot more plus size stores in the malls.

I received my top a couple days ago and forgot to let you know that I got it..With all the holiday shopping and wrapping I forgot till now..Anyway, it is such a BEAUTIFUL top. I received the INES Split Neck Top in the chocolate color and I love it. My husband doesn’t like many tops on me (or me either for that matter) because of the way I am shaped but this top seems to be made for me. It has a flowing look that doesn’t bring attention to any of the areas that are normally a problem for me..If anyone reads this, please know that even though the shirts and dresses from the INES part looks beautiful, they look even more beautiful in real life view. Thanks so much for the giveaway and giving me the chance to win it….
