You should wear - Sunglasses Trend

Although the Summer will soon be officially over curvy divas; yep, despite the fact that we are still experiencing sunshine and heat...Summer is over - at least, technically!  However, although we will be experiencing cooler weather soon, it's still good to wear sunglasses during the winter months. You do have to protect your eyes from the sun even during the Winter season!

I wear sunglasses, whenever I'm not wearing my required specs (reading/driving glasses)!  Wearing sunglasses helps me to see better when I'm outside and stops the wind from blowing into my eyes, which happens quite often and so I squint and guess what happens if I keep squinting like that?  Yep, crows feet!  I might be aging, but I want to do it gracefully thank you very much!  I also wear my sunglasses to protect my eyes from the allergen that are in the air, so there are good reasons to protect your baby blues and browns!

I've been looking at what are the top trend in sunglasses for Fall.  I love that I not only see colors, but patterns as well!  How exciting for us fashionistas who love to wear them! Paula Darnell of About.com, wrote about the Fall 2012 Sunglasses Trend. The looks that are "in" for Fall:

Tortoise shell frame - a fashion classic look for sunglasses wearers - a look I really like and have tried before.  We're talking faux tortoise of course curvy diva! I might just seek out a pair!



Oxblood frame - I'm thinking to myself, what exactly is an Oxblood frame sunglasses?  They're made with oxblood...is there ever a stupid question? No, if you don't know, then you ask, and seek the answer, right?!  From what I gathered it is the type of finish and color of the sunglasses frame, mostly with a dark burgundy or violet hue.  I've worn many an Oxblood frame and it's a very popular color that suits many people!




Cat eye frame - Is  a look I've seen time and again.  If you're not a confident fashionista, you won't be able to pull this look off! The sizes, colors and looks varies but  it's quirky, cute and fun at the same time!

Patterned frame - as in the look above, can be fun to wear!  It's a fun look to any wardrobe!  There are always a variety of patterns and prints for Fall and any other seasons for that matter!  You just have to choose the look for you!

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.

Hair Trends: Rainbow Colored Hair

I've got a new obsession. Yes, a new one, rainbow colored hair.  I am fascinated by the women who are bold enough to do this look. I did my own bold look two summers ago when I went a very daring red.   I am actually antsy and really want to try pink and blue and green...need I say more? LOL!  Because I have to keep my looks under wraps (at least for the next couple of months) so that I don't scare the very conservative people I work with.  I cannot be really "loud" with my hair.  In my heart I am a child of adventure and do not let others bother me but I must admit there are times when "they" will suppress my spirit. These days though I'm happy to say that I'm learning to live in the moments and I am again learning to let me be me. So yes, I will find a way to try new colors and I do like rainbow colors! How exciting. What I do like about rainbow colors are that there are some that are really LOUD , and others that make a statement without be...

Does Sustainable Fashion have a Future?

Being environmentally conscious is something I am learning to do and it is fast becoming a favorite topic of mine curvy divas . I believe that as time changes we are all learning to not just be aware of our environment but to act to protect it as well! We have to change our attitudes and behavior in our lifestyle so as to consciously help ourselves. Last month H&M along with Vogue put together a panel of fashionably conscious people participated in a live discussion held at The New School for Design at Parson's, about "How can we create a more sustainable fashion future".   Once again I turned to one of my favorite online fashion source, Refinery29  where writer Glynnis Mapp shared more about this outstanding event!  The panel discussed ways we as consumers could practice sustainability in fashion, and also how the government could be involved. There was suggestion of a "by the pound incentive program for consumers..." and where "points" could...
