In March of 2012 before I decided to create this blog, I shared my love for Vogue magazine on my d-foreverserenity blog with the article I am super-imposing below. I have this "thing" for magazines. I won't say obsession...I love the glossy pages, the colors, and usually read them from cover to cover....!
I had so many magazines piled up, I had to get rid of them...and yes, regretted it the minute I did! Anyway, I'm so glad there are online choices now!!!! Takes up less place in my bedroom!lol! I have saved some of my favorite issues, and shared some style inspiration and observation below.
These were my favorite looks from a Vogue magazine issue from August 2006, six years ago in the past, I know, but I have tons of mags and I love flipping through the pages! These looks are so fresh today!!
Vogue featured the color combination of "The Red is the new Black" - red being the new black at the time! Patrick Demarchelier, photographer and model was Christy Turnlington

Remember curvy divas, those looks were in 2006. Flash forward today and those very looks are on trend! Isn't it great how fashion come full-circle?! My dream is to see the same looks in a magazine for plus size divas. I know there are magazines and fashion out there that do make us look good. So much has happened over the years, however, there is still so much work to be done in the plus size fashion industry.
