And what better way to commemorate this journey than with some fabulous giveaways?

This week, weโ€™re kicking off the festivities with an exciting partnership with Gia/IRL, a contemporary plus size brand redefining everyday style. Together, weโ€™re giving four lucky readers the chance to win a $160 gift card to shop their incredible collection. But thatโ€™s just the beginning!

Meet Gia/IRL: Where Style Meets Real Lifeย 

Founded by Gia Sinatra, a former plus size model, editor, and entrepreneur, Gia/IRL (In Real Life) was born out of a desire to fill a gap in the market for chic, versatile clothing tailored to plus size bodies. Gia understands firsthand the challenges of finding high-quality, stylish, and functional wardrobe staples that fit beautifully and feel amazing. With Gia/IRL, she set out to create pieces that empower women to look and feel their best, whether theyโ€™re dressing for work, a night out, or lounging in comfort.

And the best part? Gia/IRL is unapologetically size-inclusive, offering sizes ranging from 12 to 30.

With a commitment to ethical production and sustainable practices, Gia/IRL is more than just a clothing brandโ€”itโ€™s a movement that celebrates the individuality and strength of plus size women everywhere.
