I've been thinking of creating my own online boutique. I'm pretty tall with curves (even though I'm skinny) & its hard to find stuff for me such as jeans, shorts, dresses, rompers... I really want to start my own business & I'm just wondering, how would I start that? Or if you have any advice that would be helpful.

Make sure you have the money, or have a good plan to get a loan, and make sure you're doing good advertising.

First you should pick a product and an ecommerce platform. If you are going to work with wholesaler's you may need to get a resalers license from your state.
You do need money but their are a few ways to get started without putting a lot money up front. You can try just getting a few items and posting them on facebook to see if they sell first.
Check this site onlineboutiquesource.com there is a bunch of information including a wholesaler's directory to find suppliers. Good luck. Let me know if you have any questions along the way.
