Buttoned-down White Men's Shirt

Have you ever worn any items from your closet three different ways? It's not really that hard to do is it curvy divas?

That was the discussion on a website I visit often BeyondBlackWhite.com, I entered a contest for a chance to win a $100 Visa Gift Card. My first thought was for my black knit dress from Kohl's,which I even wrote about recently. I've worn it three different ways in the past, with jacket & heels; with a pair of dress pants; and with boots and a jacket; I mentioned this on the blogsite for my entry!

I got to thinking that there are other clothing that I do wear in a pretty versatile way, one of them is my white buttoned-down shirt! It is a men's shirt that I love, especially because it belonged to my dad.

This was my most recent outfit with that white buttoned-down shirt:

For Work:

White shirt, styled with long black skirt & beige/khaki boots

Accessories: multi-strand pearl necklace, earrings & bracelets & a black stretched belt

On the weekend dressed down:

White shirt with Jeans, black tank & black suede booties !

Accessories: Floral-print scarf, earrings & bracelet watch

The Look with Jeans

For work:

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!

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! ...

Lacquered: Move over Glossy, Matte Nails are in!

In Purewow's Beauty section online, I read with interest that the new trend for nails this fall will be the matte finished, as in shine-free! Well move over glossy & shiny! Remember curvy divas , there is matte makeup ; matte lipstick ; I even remember the matte finish jewelry trend , and now we have matte nail polishes!! Did you ever think that trend would be in nail polishes too? According to Purewow, the Matte Finish not only comes as a nail polish, but also as a Top Coat! They recommend that we first try the top coat in matte finish to see if we like the look. You can apply it over your regular nail color of the week and have matte-finished nails! Top Coat in Matte Finish SHOP The budget-friendly and cautious side of me agrees this would be a safe way to see if you do like the look (although at $19 each there's nothing cheap about it!) and just in case you don't want to splurge on every color in the line of matte finishes, I guess i...
