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!

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!   ...

30 Coats: One for every day of the cold season

As Winter comes around the corner for some, and is already here for others, what is the best thing (after my favorite, boots) that some fashionistas look forward to? Well curvy divas , have you thought about it yet?  Coat season of course!  I'm sure by now you know that there is a coat for every type of cold-weather day! On Purewow.com they featured 30 different coats you can wear , think of it as a daily guide for at least one month of coat-wearing during the cold season!  They have defined for each type of cold-weather day a coat or jacket you can wear! When it's Crisp outside, a bit cooler than the hot weather we are still feeling here in Orlando, then it's time to take out your blazer ! Mossimo's brown leather fur collar jacket When it gets blustery outside, a lot colder than just a chill in the air, hello Bomber jackets !   I agree that this style is the "it" jacket, because of its edgy style ! http://www.oldnavy.com/products/outerwear-...
