Seven Things You SHOULD Wear on a Plane

Last year I wrote an article with suggestions about what you should not wear on a plane, you know, when you're travelling! Well curvy divas, I found out the Seven things that you SHOULD wear on a plane!  Why do you need this information? Well, it might come in handy because flying on a plane is not the most rested of thing to do.  It can be one of the most harried and uncomfortable moments of your life.  So if you can make yourself as comfortable as possible, wouldn't you try to?

Caroline Costello shared some tips on Smartertravel.com. Her first suggestion is to wear layers, and lots of it, if you can.  Not only will you be able to handle the different temperature changes on the plane, depending on where you're going, or coming from, you can take off, or keep some of those layers!  And even more important, dressing in layers means that you will be packing less clothing!



You will want to wear clothing that is not only comfortable, but that will literally be "breathable" fabric, such as cotton.




Wear support hosiery or socks. That is socks that will support your legs and keep the oxygen moving.  Remember for some people who fly, they might be prone to leg swellings or have medical issues that could be difficult, wearing support hosiery or socks will keep your circulation moving!



You should also wear comfortable flats
Wearing shoes that can easily be taken off, or put back on, is a plus.  For men I would say wear loafers instead of sneakers!

Ms. Costello also recommends wearing clothing with lots of pockets.  I totally agree with that!  You would be surprise at how handy having more than one pockets is!  You can put your passport, ticket, and sunglasses in different pockets.  This will leave your hands free to carry your hand luggage!


Wearing loose fitting clothing is also one of those seven items!  Remember you're flying, you want to be comfortable, do you see the theme we're going with curvy divas?

Last but not least wearing something fashionably stylish!  Now I know you might be saying to yourself, "What?"  Because after the list above, something stylish?!  Well, of course, we don't want you looking like an overstuffed bear or a penguin! You also don't want to look like a bum!  Nope, the reason why you should dress stylish and neat, is because sometimes, the flight attendants will give free upgrades to passengers who are nicely dressed!  

So, the next time you're going on a plane, try wearing a tee-shirt layered over a tank, with a jacket that has lots of pockets, a pair of jeans or a nice skirt, nice flats (loafers for men) with support tights or socks, and have a great looking handbag! Whew~  I think we nailed it!

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Window Shopping Part Deux - What I Chose

As you know from my last article , I went shopping for swimsuit with my teen Mandi and ended up doing the same for myself. After all, I was in need of a new bathing suit. My last purchase for one was from Target eight years ago! And also during that time, I was the lucky recipient of two new suits from my BSFFL (Best Sister Friend For Life) who visited from Europe! So Those have lasted quite a long time!

Shoes, Fabulous Shoes!

There's nothing like a great pair of shoes that finishes an outfit.  You can have on the most darling outfit, but if you don't have the right shoes to go with it, well, somehow you end up feeling like, "Meh", to quote the perfect noncommittal, blah expression! Men of the world, there's one thing you must know, shoes makes the outfit, that's why we women have a variety of  them! In  my quest for nude-colored shoes this season, here are two looks I love from Elle.com "Best Spring Heels" feature. Suede wide-strap wedges from the Gap - $89.99 [Mark  Platt photo] You can never go wrong with Platforms!  If you love having a high heel without the stilts, wedges are the way to go! Paulina Cork Sandal heels from Bebe - $98.00 [Mark Platt photo] Although the linked article is from last year, the color and style are pretty on point for today's look!  The height of the heel is balanced by the platform at the base of the shoe.  Take ...
