Edgy Fashionista!

You know what I'm tired of curvy divas?  I'm tired of Society telling me what I can and cannot wear. I'm sick of seeing models who should be plus sized and they're not, modeling clothes that is supposed to fit a curvy woman! How am I going to tell how that clothing really looks on my curvy behind if the model who is showing it has none?  I'm also tired of not finding really stylish clothing in curvy diva sizes!!!  That's the three I'll list for now and I'll stop right there!

I like to dress with not just style but with a bit of a "pop" thrown in too.  That means I love to accessorize, and they don't usually match.  I love to color coordinate but not in a "matchy-matchy" type of way.  I love to dress up, most of the times.  As someone commented to me recently, "I guess you dress according to your moods". Yes I do and there's nothing wrong with that!

I was looking around on the Intraweb at the different styles and looks being offered to Plus Sized divas, it's a bit of both world, some were too tame and too door-mat, while others were just not the right type for everyone!  I wanted to see clothing with a bit more, let's say "edge" to them.  Not just being trendy, but clothing that would let a curvy diva be herself, whoever she is! She would put those clothes on and not just rock the look, she would own it!

I found these gorgeous and fun fashion on dominodollhouse.com!

You know you're always told if you have large hips you should wear a plain skirt or pants..i.e., no embellishment....not always! This skirt would definitely work, with the right top!  (wear a simple top that doesn't clash with the look of this style and you're good to go!)


Bowout Skirt in Lavender stripes - $48.99


I would also wear this dress!   It can be worn to work, w/jacket or cardigan...or without!  It's also a great party dress!

Peter Pan Trapeze dress in black & white stripes - $59.99


My favorite so far...beautiful! I would wear it with jeans!
Red Birthday Bash Mini Dress - $169.99

I love, LOVE this skirt! Too bad my size is sold out! But can't you see you rocking this curvy diva?  And guess what the back of it looks like....  ?
Pin Up Perfection Pencil Skirt - $39.95 

........Beautiful!

Don't let anyone dictate your look or style.  Be who you want to be.  Find the look that works for you and that you're comfortable with and go for it!

Curvy Looks: What I Wore In a Week

I like reviewing my Style-looks to see how my fashion has progressed, what clothing I intend to keep during my #Showmeyourcloset make over (more on this soon) and also just in case I have to re-think my style strategy when in work-mode. There are good days when my looks are on pointe, and those moments when I wonder what the heck was I thinking with a look that I wore! That may have happened to you as well at times curvy divas?! You know, when the clothing you wore makes you go...WTF?!  This was not how I envisioned this look. I can't wait to get home to take it off!lol! Been there, done that so many times! haha

The Look: New Year's Eve the Weddington Way

Picture this curvy divas, your friend is getting married on New Year's Eve, oh the joy! Then she asks you to be her bridesmaid, and guess what else?  No, not wear that same bouffant dress from her cousin's wedding, oh the horror.  You will be able to create your very own bridesmaid style, your way!!!! Your instructions are, since you are ready for this adventure, "You have to select from the bride's choice of dresses".   All you have to do is accessorize!!!!  This beautiful champagne lace dress from Weddington Way is the one!  Picture this, I'm thinking  monochromatic & luxe femininity . H owever, do not outshine the bride, that's always a no-no! The Weddington Way Nora Dress: A perfect choice.   Gorgeous, lace styling, monochromatic, yet luxe - you could style this many ways. Weddington Way Nora Bridesmaid dress in Champagne  Our choices: Lace gloves:   What better way to add that air of sophistication and femininity, with an oomph of lux

Vintage Vogue

In March of 2012 before I decided to create this blog, I shared my love for Vogue magazine on my d-foreverserenity blog with the article I am super-imposing below. I have this "thing" for magazines. I won't say obsession...I love the glossy pages, the colors, and usually read them from cover to cover....! I had so many magazines piled up, I had to get rid of them...and yes, regretted it the minute I did! Anyway, I'm so glad there are online choices now!!!! Takes up less place in my bedroom!lol! I have saved some of my favorite issues, and shared some style inspiration and observation below. These were my  favorite looks from a  Vogue  magazine issue from August 2006 , six years ago in the past, I know, but I have tons of mags and I love  flipping  through the pages!  These  looks are so fresh today !!  Vogue  featured the color combination of  "The  Red  is the new Black" - red being the new black at the time!
