About Us 

We're two friends who met in beautiful Santa Barbara, California and bonded over a love of fashion.

Lilly is the original sexy stringbean. Her look is best described as classic and stylishly casual. She has more jeans than you can count and is always wearing the latest denim before anyone else -- except skinny (her memories of pegging her jeans in junior high will haunt her for the rest of her life). She knows that it doesn't matter where you got it or how much you paid for it . . . if it fits well, it can look like a million bucks! Her daytime staple outfit for any season? A cozy cashmere sweater, a great pair of jeans, a deliciously soft leather handbag, heels she can walk in and of course her little poodle in tow.

When Tina moved from Manhattan to Santa Barbara, she brought her city-girl look with her to the California coast. By day, she prefers tailored and sophisticated pieces in muted colors; at night, she dresses to highlight her curves. Tina loves a great handbag, but she is known far and wide for her gorgeous shoes -- the higher the better -- by Manolo Blahnik and Christian Louboutin. After she moved again from Santa Barbara to the shopping mecca that is Dallas, Texas, one of her first new friends was the shoe department manager at Barneys.

Even though their styles are different, Lilly and Tina share a common complaint . . . . They were perpetually disappointed when they bought clothes online and got them home to see they looked nothing like they did on the 6' tall, size 2 model on the website. Then, not long ago, the concept behind howdoesitfit.com came to Lilly as a brainstorm in the middle of the night. She immediately e-mailed her BFF with her idea to start a fun website where like-minded girls of all sizes could share their fashion finds and get advice on what looks great on them. She also found Brett, an amazing website developer, who believed in her mission.

Together, we bring you howdoesitfit.com, where we believe fashion is for women of all shapes and sizes. We know that if we look good, it can help us feel good! Our site gives fashionistas the opportunity to ask style questions without embarrassment and shamelessly obsess and slobber over "it" items!!

Sign on and see how other girls your size look in those Seven jeans or that BCBG top.

Share what looks good on you and what's not so great.

Tell us what you love about your body and how you work with your "problem areas."

Not sure which outfit is better for a special occasion? Post your photos and get advice.

Got a little junk in the trunk and want to know if those Banana Republic pants flatter your backside? Don't ask your boyfriend, ask us.

Just want to brag about the perfect dress you found on sale? Show us!!

Join the fun . . . we can't wait to see what's in your closet.

p.s. Because we believe we're quite fortunate to have this opportunity to start this website and share our fashionable finds, we feel it is our duty to help those who are less fortunate -- no, we're not talking about style faux pas, rather those women who don't have the resources for keeping clothing on their backs. We're still brainstorming ideas, so if you have one contact us at info@howdoesitfit.com.
