Let's Welcome Ludmila Couture

As any new mom (or any mom at all!) I spend a ton of time making sure my daughter has everything she needs and dress her in all the trendy clothes. Well my husband & I had a chance to get away for the weekend and I realized that while taking care of everyone else I have forgotten to make sure I still feel great in my clothes. So I decided it was time to make a change and as you have read I love pieces that are one of kind and made to fit not the mass market clothes. During the hunt I found Ludmila Couture. Here is a little more about the shop: "Ludmila the owner of  Ludmila Couture, and her team are serving Los Angeles and its surrounding areas for over 7 years, specializing in creating exceptional stage outfits, evening and special occasion gowns,   as well as theatrical costumes. They are committed to providing the highest quality services at competitive prices. The highly valued and dedicated crew continuously strives to provide excellent service". I am sure some of you are sceptical about buying online but her clothes run very true to size. I have the purple sparkle shirt below and it so flattering. I am very aware of clothes that hug in me in all the wrong places but this shirt has a great neckline and hugs the body without exposing any little spots I have hid the past few months with hoodies & sweats! I am very pleased with the company and will be sure to order more for summer!
