For women contemplating divorce or for those who have already divorced, Ashton Applewhite's insightful book sheds light on what to consider before making the decision to end your marriage, how to protect yourself--both financially and emotionally--and how much your life will change.

One out of every two modern marriages ends in divorce, and 75 percent of those divorces are initiated by wives. Author Ashton Applewhite is one of these women, having sued for divorce after enduring an unfulfilling ten-year marriage. Cutting Loose is an essential resource for women who want to leave their marriage but fear the consequences.

Shattering the media-generated image of the lonely, deprived and financially strapped divorcee, Applewhite provides a much needed reality check. Cutting Loose introduces 50 women, varying in age, race, class and predicament, who have thrived after initiating their own divorces. Their fears of financial, emotional and romantic ruin were never realized; on the contrary, their lives improved immeasurably, and their self-esteem soared.

Cutting Loose also answers the crucial questions: How do you finally decide to make the big break? What is getting divorced really like? What are the shortcomings of the legal process? What about custody and child support? Financial and emotional survival? And how does a woman's self-image change during and after divorce?

Ending any kind of oppression takes belief in self. Cutting Loose offers moving evidence of how such belief works, whether in a relationship or walking the road alone. Perceptive, realistic, and wise, the book is of enormous practical value to both women and men who aspire to more equal and fulfilling relationships.--Laura Day, author of Practical Intuition

Beautiful colorful dress
Size: XX-Large, Color: Hot Pink Leafy Floral Ditsy
This dress has beautiful, heavy fabric so it falls nicely but still has nice stretch. It is lightweight and comfortable. I’m 5’3” and it falls about mid-calf on me. I would definitely recommend this dress to others. I believe it fits true to size.

Simply Lovely and Versatile
Size: Large, Color: Navy
I bought this in navy for a family photo shoot. It's good quality, travels well (medium weight; no wrinkles) and works in all but really hot weather. I also wore it as a duster a few days later. As a result, I returned to purchase the emerald green.

So close!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Navy
This dress exceeded my expectations, but the deal breaker for me is no pockets! I can't believe I missed that. The fabric is impressive for polyester. It seems relatively breathable, and it's a very nice mid weight that flows and drapes well. It is smooth and conceals lumps and bumps. The buttons are well made, and the placket does not gap. I ordered the navy blue and it's exactly as expected. Size XXL is exactly right for me at 48/40/50 and 5'6". It hits about 4" below my knee. I would prefer shorter at the knee for easier to wear as a duster. I wish it had pockets!
