Buy One, Toss One - How to Purge your Closet

In other words curvy divas, whenever you buy something new, you must, MUST toss one item out!  Purge it, get rid of it, by any means necessary!  Why should you do that?  You can't bear to part with that blouse you got several years ago, even though the zipper doesn't work, and that's why you haven't worn it in so many years! Because you're going to get it fixed and then you can start wearing it again....you say to yourself with vision of years past when you used to rock that particular blouse.....!

Um, no, no, NO!  This is tough love divas.  You see, the weather is warmer now, we are feeling energized, with the urges to go out and buy something new to finally go with that top, or bottom, or shoes, or purse that we have.  Or to just add ANYTHING new to your wardrobe!  To do all of this, we cannot have a closet (or drawer) filled with overflowing clothes!

Now repeat after me...."I buy one item, I toss one out"....!   Good diva! ~applause~

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...
