Sassy Lady Website

We have had several requests from potential customers who would like to shop on our website. Although we would love to come to that point, we are not there yet. Sassy Lady works hard to be of service to anyone who wants to "shop" our store. If you see something on our website you would like, simply call the store at 309-688-5680. We will work hard to see that you get what you want. We have shipped to many states and our remote customers love us as much as if they had been into the store.

So if you are looking for comfortable clothing that looks nice and you will love, give us a try. We will work hard to make you happy!

The Importance of Texture

Have you ever considered the texture of the clothing you are buying. It is important because it can either add bulk or make you look thinner. Texture is not only the feel of the fabric but the reflection of light and its weight.

Some important considerations:

To minimize - choose textures that are smooth, soft, matte and lightweight since they are not bulky or absorb light.

To maximize - choose rough, hard, shiny and thick fabrics as they add bulk and reflect the light.

As spring appropriates and we shed more clothing, remember gauze for very warm weather and sheer layering pieces over sleeveless (if you wish to cover your arms).

Easter Bonnets

Remember when we wore Easter bonnets - the bigger the hat, the better it was! Well, this year there is an Easter Bonnet Parade in Peoria Heights on Saturday, April 4 at 11 a.m. If you would like to be part of the parade and walk with other Sassy Ladies, simply make your bonnet and join our segment of this parade.

The Peoria Heights Chamber of Commerce will be giving prizes for the most egg-ceptionally beautiful and the most egg-strordinarily goofy! Cost is $2, children under 12 are free. The EASTER BUNNY will lead the parade which assembles at Leaves and Beans and will go down Prospect to Kelley and back.

After the parade, we are going back to the store to award our own prize to the Sassiest of the Easter Bonnets. Let us know if you would like to be part by calling 688-5680.

Body Types

I was recently asked about Body Types. Please review my previous blog; however, I want to add an additional point to it. And, that is you can't change your body type. There is the common misperception that if I exercise or diet enough, I will lose the weight IN THE AREA where my problem is. However, if you are a "G" body type woman - this means you are one to two sizes smaller on top than bottom - you will remain a "G" body type. I know many ladies we are heavier in the rear and they do the stairmaster endlessly - but, guess what? - the rear is still there. It is your body type.

We need to come to acceptance with our unique body type, understand how to dress for it and be proud of who we are and what we have!

If you have any additional questions on body types, please let me know and we will answer them.
