Lacquered - Nail looks for Fall 2013

Summer is winding down or has only two more days for so many who had a summer break! Already many of the mags (magazines) have looked to Fall. If you are like me curvy divas, you are looking forward to Fall looks in fashion!

Nails are still pretty much a part of the fashion equation and with that in mind, I poured avidly over the latest article from Elle.com about the nail colors for Fall! Some of the colors that I notice that are popping up for nail polishes are in the red family, such as Oxblood & Bordeaux, and blue family, such as Midnight Blue and even in the Purple family such as Amethyst!

Tom Ford's Bordeaux and Marc Jacobs' Jezebel
Shop: Neiman Marcus & Sephora

I am looking forward to wearing some of the colors! To see all 40 colors, go to the article here Forty Best New Fall Nail Polishes!

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!

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!

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.

It is pretty much how you put your outfit together! On Elle.com Amanda Fitzsimons interviewed designer Marissa Webb who is known for using sequins during the daytime! Amanda wanted to know if this look (daytime glitter) can really work? Marissa said it definitely can and thinks it is in how shine the sequinned (or glittered) garment that choose to wear is. It is not just in the size of the beadings at all! I tend to agree with her. I don't think a really shiny sequinned garment on its own, would work for daytime. That would definitely be overkill! ...
