My name is Darlene Campbell. I’m a former corporate attorney who realized during a law firm retreat in 2007 that I’d rather create button-front shirts for women like me (a 34H) than strive to be a partner at a law firm. (For a fun interview with WNYC about my transition to entrepreneur, click here.)
Along the way to creating my line of shirts, I’ve also discovered that it’s more fun to blog than it is to draft loan agreements. It turns out there’s a lot to write for women whose bra cup sizes are D and higher but whose skirt sizes are 14 and lower. A few examples:
- funny stories (popcorn down your cleavage, anyone?), vents and observations about what it’s like to live in our bodies,
- manufacturers who create bras, swimsuits and clothing for our body type,
- ways to make the latest fashion trends work for us,
- exceptions to all those rules about how to dress if you’re busty, and
- solutions from other large-breasted women to problems that only a large-breasted woman can understand (and if we don’t have a solution, we’ll provide a shoulder to cry on).
I hope you learn as much from reading this blog as I’m learning from writing it. And I hope you’ll add to the knowledge, either through your comments or by writing a guest post. You can reach me at darlenecee@gmail.com if you’d like to discuss the latter–or if you’d just like to introduce yourself or make a few suggestions.
