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!

Another post of mine that was a write up for Orlando Fashion Week Magazine.  It was published there previously.  If you missed it, I'm sharing it again here on my blog for the first time, with some edits for relevance of course curvy divas. A writer's work is never done! Let me know which celebrity wore your favorite style! Did you watch last year's AMAs? Me too!  It was one of the best with my favorite Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull as host.  Did you catch the fashion that walked the red carpet?  No? Well, pull up a chair and I'll fill you in. At the 2012 award show, Christina Aguilera was beautiful in all her curvyness in a Pamella Roland dress, unfortunately, she went overboard on the suntan lotion.  Last year, she showed off a much leaner physique in a white Maria Lucia Hohan cut-out dress with a high split on the side.  Her shoes were Christian Louboutin peep-toe and I loved her pave jewelry. Christina Aguilera at the AMAs in 2012 & 2013. ...

Fashionistas - What's in a Word

You have heard this word before curvy divas , "Fashionistas"?  When it comes to anything to do with fashion and being fashionable, I am sure you have!  Do you know who coined the word and how it came about?  Well, first of all I didn't even realized that there was a story to the word, much less it being "coined" by any one particular person!  I just thought it was one of those words that came about and became popular because of its usage and in reference to anything fashion! According to Elle.com's Culture News, in an article by Rebecca Moss , the word Fashionistas was first created by Stephen Fried. In 1993, Fried, a young Journalist was writing a book about the Model Gia Carangi, who died very young, (sidenote-have you seen the [autobiography] movie of the same name, Gia? - I did and it is one to watch)!  Stephen met with people in the Industry and wanted a word that would represent who and what they were.  Because models and the Industry weren't p...
