Grammy Looks - My Favorite Dresses

Did you watch the Grammy Awards last night curvy divas?  It was fantastic!  Part of the magic of the Grammys is watching the stars walk the Red Carpet and they did not disappoint.  There were a few looks I liked a lot, however, two looks were my favorite of the night!

The first look, this diva can be a handful with her personal life, but her music is still rocking!  I love dancing to it and enjoy watching her videos!  Who am I talking about curvy divas?  Well, it's Rihanna of course!

The color was a bright red, so apt for her personality!  The fact that their was this "memo" that went out telling people how not to dress, she definitely skirted around it by wearing this sheer number which although it covered up nicely, showed enough skin!  

Yahoo Music reviewer gave graded her dress an A for this dress and I agree!

The second dress which I also liked was worn by Adele! The Y! Music writer (Yahoo music) did a dis-service to Adele and called her dress frumpy!!!!  Frumpy?!!! Just because it's a floral patterned?  Just because it's not showing any skin?  Just because...really?

Her grade was a D and I disagree!  Not everyone has to show their body parts, and dress in sheer and revealing clothing.  I particularly love the color combination of her dress. For someone who has just recently had a baby, she looks really good, in my opinion!  What would have made this dress frumpy is if it were a long gown.  That would have been over the top, however, it is tea or cocktail length!

The color brightens her face, her shoes are a match (cool) and without even trying too hard, she's showing off her curves! 

If I were to update this look more, personally, I would have worn four-inch black heels with an envelope purse  and large hoops. My hair would be in a sleek high pony tail! But that's just me! (and even then someone might just not like it!) So this goes without saying curvy divas, if you love it, and you're confident with yourself, go for it and rock your look!  Adele sure did!

Wearing Red

It's Valentine's Day again and I'm sure many of you curvy divas are wondering what to wear tonight?  Some of us have plans, but others will keep it low keyed at home...or not! Whatever you do curvy divas, I found some great suggestions on Elle.com!  They featured RED , in everything, accessories, clothing, make up, even underwear!  Here are my favorite picks! I LOVE this dress! The silhouette is beautiful and will flatter most body types!  I checked and this item doesn't go larger than a size 12 by the designer, and they are out of this style at Neiman Marcus, however, it's a great look and you can find something similar elsewhere!  If it is too long, find a shorter length.

The Best Hair Color for You

You choose your outfit with care, down to the shoes you wear for that particular look.  You put your makeup on, and now it's time for your hair.....why is it not looking its best?  Everything that you do in trying to style it, is just so wrong!  You're ready to scream or pull your hair out!!!! Have you ever had a bad hair day?  I know I have, more than once!  Usually, if I'm lucky, I'll have time to wear a hat, a wig or pin my hair in a way to make it work!  It doesn't matter who you are, for every woman, if your hair isn't at its best, you will not be too ! When you have your hair, as some might say "did" or "done" you know you will be at your fabulously curvy best !  One of the  things I like to do is color my hair. Yes, it's chemical, so I guess I'm not totally au naturel!  You can try a rinse, which is a way to temporarily color your hair with a new look, or you can use a permanent color and rock your hair the way you want! ...
