Let's be honest: As stylish as today's clothing may be, nothing really compares to the fashion from back in the day. Think about it, there's a reason why vintage pieces have become so popular. It's because the clothes from our abuela's era weren't just well crafted, but incredibly figure-flattering too! A lot of my fashion rules and inspiration come straight from my fabulous abuelita. Even at her 85 years, the woman still knows how to dress to impress!

If you think about it our abuelas were pretty glamorous chicas. Women in the 50s and 60s always dressed elegantly no matter where they were going or what they were doing. To them there was so no such thing as casual wear, unless you were home cleaning (where no one could see you of course). And EVERYTHING they wore was figure-conscious!

Now I'm not trying to imply you give up your comfort for style, but there are definitely a few things we can learn from these ladies on how to flatter our figures. Take a look!
