Only Hearts Animal Print as seen at Curve NY for Spring 2020 as featured on Lingerie BriefsOnly Hearts

Curve NY wrapped up last week and as I always do, I spent 3 solid days at the show. It was definitely more robust, with an interesting layout and meaningful seminars. I received healthy feedback.
