Blog Upp!

You know curvy divas, in this world of blogging you have to put yourself out there.  You have to get around the blogosphere and introduce "yourself" to all the others who have paved the way for you.  As an up and coming fashion blog for us curvy plus sized divas, I'm getting to know my way around.  While I'm not new to the blog world, I have a personal blog where I share my views and my reality on a regular basis, but the dream to have a fashion blog with the fabulously curvy in mind, has always been there and though this genre can be an intimidating world because there are so many experts out there, I decided to jump right into the pool!  I decided to treat this blog the way I do my personal blog, by just being me, and with fingers crossed, hopefully like-minded readers will come by and they will come back again, and again, and decide to stay around for the pool party!

It was by "poking" around the intraweb that I discovered Blog Upp, at least I was poking around Blogger Gadgets!lol!  So I joined Blog Upp and got a widget for my Fabulously Curvy blog.  Today I see that I have their blue light of approval!!  Thank you Blog Upp!

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Lacquered: Move over Glossy, Matte Nails are in!

In Purewow's Beauty section online, I read with interest that the new trend for nails this fall will be the matte finished,  as in shine-free!  Well move over glossy & shiny!  Remember curvy divas , there is matte makeup ; matte lipstick ; I even remember the matte finish jewelry trend , and now we have matte nail polishes!! Did you ever think that trend would be in nail polishes too?   According to Purewow, the Matte Finish not only comes as a nail polish, but also as a Top Coat! They recommend that we first try the top coat in matte finish to see if we like the look.  You can apply it over your regular nail color of the week and have matte-finished nails! Top Coat in Matte Finish SHOP The budget-friendly and cautious side of me agrees this would be a safe way to see if you do like the look (although at $19 each there's nothing cheap about it!) and just in case you don't want to splurge on every color in the line of matte finishes, I guess i...
