Blinging Out!


My hubby keeps referring to what he wants to do for the Christmas  "Bling Out" - Jamaican style - which is what us Jamaicans refers to when we want to put on our best style, especially jewelry, so as to look our "sharpest" for the holiday season!

Have you ever heard the term before curvy divas? It can also be a running joke (affectionately) between us as we try to cajole a laugh out of the other! In a recent article I shared Party Dresses that had some glitz and blinging style which will make any fashionista look her curvy best!

People.com featured "10 Gifts for an Ultra-Glitzy Girl" showcasing, Marc Jacob pouches, Henri Bendel glitter wristlet purses, Deborah Lippmann glitter nail polish, and other items that will make a curvy diva's heart sing!

Usually I would post a photo of those gorgeous items, however, as I'm on the injured list for one more day (you can read my post about this on my Foreverserenity blog), I am posting from my Android, so take your beautifully manicured fingers and tap yourself over to the link attached to this posting! www.people.com, go look for the article, "10 Gifts for an Ultra Glitzy Girl"!

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.

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...
