Love Wedges? How to wear them!

I have this thing with heels that when I mention it to anyone, they look at me as if I'm weird.  I have to, HAVE TO wear heels, at least 80% of the time.  The reason why I have to wear heels a lot is because I'm flat-footed. Yes, I have very low arch, so low that if I wear flats for two to three days straight without any height in heel, my feet will hurt and then I have to wear heels to make my feet feel better. Weird, or a more serious condition? Who knows?!

I wear heel height from 4inches to 6 inches! Nope, I haven't mastered the 7inch heel, and I won't even try.  As a curvy girl, a six-inch heel is the height where I stop! I like wedges, high heels, and stiletto heels.  With some platform heels, popularly called wedges, the heel can be low, or high; however, the main thing is, the heel will balance the height of the heel so that you can walk with confidence!

 On about.com, Desiree Stimpert wrote (1): wedges "...are worldly and eye-catching, ...very cosmopolitan.....looks great with nearly any length skirt or dress....are a fashionable choice....and will add definition and shape to heavy ankles, making them appear thinner". Desiree's article (1). 

I so agree with her curvy divas!  So if you have never worn wedges (platform heel) before curvy divas, and you wanted to try it but wasn't sure how to, I've got you covered! 

Wedges look great with Maxis, skirt or dress, shorts, even short-shorts, most dresses, and flared, or even boot-cut pants.

   


Wedges don't look with great with pencil skirt, capris or pants that are too narrow on the legs. However, I don't mind wearing them with leggings when I wear a long tunic/dress.

If you decide to buy your first pair of wedges, be adventurous and try a pattern or bright colored hued!  Also, be careful of a too chunky heel, because they tend to be a bit more precarious, but are fun if you know how to wear them!  When my Amanda was interested in wearing heels, I started her out in a pair of wdges that were perfect for her age and size. It is OK for pre-teen girls to wear a small-wedge heel.

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! ...
