My Summer Want List

Last year I created a list of "wants" to add to my summer wardrobe in an article I shared with you curvy divas, My Summer Wish List!  Unfortunately two of the photographs are no longer there. However I am happy to report I got the nude shoes I wanted!

There are several more fashion wants on my list!  I have pinned on my Pinterest board,  Want 2013, so far, only a few of the fashion items I want to own for this year, not just for Summer!


A pair of leather leggings! Yes, it's leather or perhaps pleather, if they're not real, but look good enough to be real!  Mind you, it is hot in Florida, however, I sit inside in the AC all day...then again, they won't be a wear-to-work item! Who cares....I want them!

These from KOOVS are really great!

I've been lusting after chambray shirts, jeans vest, jeans dress; I finally have the jeans dress!  However, the shirt, and the vest, not yet!  I like this chambray shirt featured with this Ping skirt, found on anthropologie.com.

Love this look! Ping embroidered skirt



I used to wear espadrilles so much, they were my go-to footwear!  That was several years ago!   I do still love the look of espadrilles and hope to add a pair to my wardrobe!

Tory Burch Beacher Espadrilles Flats - sold out at shopbop.com!




Last but not least, I want a pair of gold filigree earrings!  Preferably the real thing, but I would rock a gold-plated pair just the same!

These are at the Hermitage Museum, as found at theancientworld http://theancientworld.tumblr.com/page/5


I am going to enjoy tracking these "wants" down!  Do you have any fashion wants?  Do share!

A Re-post: Red Carpet Reviews - 2013 American Music Awards

Another post of mine that was a write up for Orlando Fashion Week Magazine.  It was published there previously.  If you missed it, I'm sharing it again here on my blog for the first time, with some edits for relevance of course curvy divas. A writer's work is never done! Let me know which celebrity wore your favorite style! Did you watch last year's AMAs? 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.

Hair Trends: Rainbow Colored Hair

I've got a new obsession. Yes, a new one, rainbow colored hair.  I am fascinated by the women who are bold enough to do this look. I did my own bold look two summers ago when I went a very daring red.   I am actually antsy and really want to try pink and blue and green...need I say more? LOL!  Because I have to keep my looks under wraps (at least for the next couple of months) so that I don't scare the very conservative people I work with.  I cannot be really "loud" with my hair.  In my heart I am a child of adventure and do not let others bother me but I must admit there are times when "they" will suppress my spirit. These days though I'm happy to say that I'm learning to live in the moments and I am again learning to let me be me. So yes, I will find a way to try new colors and I do like rainbow colors! How exciting. What I do like about rainbow colors are that there are some that are really LOUD , and others that make a statement without be...

Does Sustainable Fashion have a Future?

Being environmentally conscious is something I am learning to do and it is fast becoming a favorite topic of mine curvy divas . I believe that as time changes we are all learning to not just be aware of our environment but to act to protect it as well! We have to change our attitudes and behavior in our lifestyle so as to consciously help ourselves. Last month H&M along with Vogue put together a panel of fashionably conscious people participated in a live discussion held at The New School for Design at Parson's, about "How can we create a more sustainable fashion future".   Once again I turned to one of my favorite online fashion source, Refinery29  where writer Glynnis Mapp shared more about this outstanding event!  The panel discussed ways we as consumers could practice sustainability in fashion, and also how the government could be involved. There was suggestion of a "by the pound incentive program for consumers..." and where "points" could...
