Curvy Stylebook: How to wear Leggings

Leggings is a fashion item I will continue to write about curvy divas. Why?  It is a favorite go-to clothing item for me. It is comfortable, goes with almost everything, on top, with the right clothing, or beneath, again, with the right clothing choice, you can rock your style wearing leggings.

Some fashionistas will continue to say, "Oh, leggings are not pants, they should never be worn outside". To that I will always disagree. One of the negatives about some leggings is the fit, they are like a second skin after all and will fit your body to a tee, as in watch out for camel toes!lol!  Not to forget dimples and everything else.

This is when you wear a longer tee shirt, or a tunic or even a mini dress over your leggings. One of my favorite thing to do is to wear layers on top of my leggings; this way I have lots of styling options! Being a curvy diva, I cannot just throw on a tee shirt and go, I will wear a tank top under a tee shirt; or wear a mini/short dress, or a tunic with leggings. I have to find some really nice print leggings though. I think I play it too safe with dark colors every time!

I love these fun Romwe leggings - take note of her tunic, and worn w/boots = Fun!
How about you? Do you like wearing leggings? What are some of your styling choices when you wear them? Do share!

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! So Those have lasted quite a long time!

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.

How to Wear Glitter in the Daytime

Have you ever worn sequin aka glitter?  It is pretty much a trend in fashion these days.  Glitter is worn mostly at nights and for real special and dressier occasions. But not so today curvy divas. Glitter can also be worn during the day!  I've worn glitter during the day time before and I try to make it look as understated as possible!  You don't need too much accessories when you wear glitter.  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! ...
