MY BRIEF MODELING CAREER- By Andrea of Shopping for the Real You

Note from Pauline Durban, Founder and President of Covered Perfectly - This is Andrea's first review for us and I think she did an amazing job. She's a woman after my own heart, I've never met an animal print I didn't like and this leopard looks great with so many color tops. I've been experimenting, so should you. This post was sponsored by Covered Perfectly. Over to Andrea... Recently I was contacted by Covered Perfectly and they offered me the opportunity to try out a couple of their styles. A number of my colleagues swear by the brand, I thought it could be fun! The company was founded in Pauline, a British ex-pat. Pauline searched for simple, chic pieces for her wardrobe that would help her look pulled together but not overexposed. After hunting around unsuccessfully, she decided to take matters into her own hands. So, as a single woman and at the age of 56 she invested her entire life savings and launched the brand.

My outfit

I tried out the coral Simple V Neck Top worn with the Leopard Cascading Vest (can’t get enough leopard print.) The Cascading Vest is an attractive and versatile addition to my wardrobe. I looks great open and belted. Cascading Vests come in several patterns and colors. I’m wearing this combination to a dinner night: easy-peasy pulled together look.

The Simple V is made of MicroModal which has a yummy feel and looks great on those of us with an extra pound here and there. It’s also one of the few wash-and-wear textiles that holds up well over time.

What else they offer

In addition to the Simple V-Neck shown here, they offer a variety of basic style tops also come in scooped and square. In addition to basics there are a countless options that cover a multitude of sins, all very cute and true to the “covered perfectly” promise. The collection also includes a couple of great classic LBDs and attractive Pencil Skirts in a nice dense ponte fabric. And then there’s what they call a “leisure suit.” (I think that’s Pauline's sense of humor at work). It’s actually a comfy combination of a tunic and capris in the micromodal fabric that could work equally well for running off the grocery store, heading out for a pedicure or lounging around the house. I think Pauline has a winner here and I can’t wait to see what she adds to the collection over time. There is a bonus!!!
