Hey, Sassy!
This is Ali Joy, the owner and currator of MWB. She tries on every style to ensure quality and make sure we can give as many fit details as possible.
Ali is approximately 5'6 with pretty average proportions. She typically wears a size 10/11 jeans to accomodate her ample thighs and surplus junk in the trunk. She normally prefers a medium or large top, mostly because she hates when shirts or jackets pull across the shoulder blades (RIP Chris Farley in a little jacket) but her chest is a small a/b cup.
Now that you know all Ali's closet secrets😜, if you have any additional questions, just hit the "Ask a question" tab. Clearly she's not afraid to spill the tea.
