Window Shopping

What's that?  You don't know what Window Shopping is?  It's a popular term in my birth country, Jamaica! It is what you do when you're bored, but you want to "go out and do something" and you have no money to shop because of one reason or another!  Back in the day, yes, that was the terminology, and it still stands.  However, it is also a fun way to wile away the day!  And now I'm adding a new meaning, it's a way to look at what's in style now! So you walk the Mall and have a look at today's fashion! Which is what Amanda and I did a short time ago!


At Old Navy we were drawn to:

Hats are in season for the Summer!

(You recognize this photo?) Worn jauntily feeling my Diva moment!

Swimsuits!  Amanda liked this one, and so did I!

You need a good cover up for the pool or beach

Cute!


Even in Summer, scarves are still the "rage"!


Hmmm, "How do these look"?  Flip Flops!

We mosey on over to another of our favorite store: TJ MAXX!!



I'm not sure where she thinks she's going?  But boy, we could use a vacation!


Nice handbag! 

Me likey!!!


Amanda liked this one better!

Now I see why, a cross body shoulder bag!! Diva in training!


They had Summer hats too!




I really liked these shoes! Suede 5 inch heels! Wow!




What a day of window shopping! We had a blast!

A Re-post: Red Carpet Reviews - 2013 American Music Awards

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...
