Curvy Looks: The Faux Fix for Celebs Fashion Faux Pas

Some time ago I shared an article I wrote about celebrities who wore the wrong style-look and it got me thinking that I didn't really give any solutions to what they wore, not fully!  It's like me seeing you leave the ladies restroom w/toilet paper trailing on your shoes, or yikes...hanging out of your underwear!!!! What would the fix be?  The faux fix......for these "oh no she didn't" fashion moments, aka, a fashion "faux pas".  

What did Mindy Kaling do wrong here? Her ensemble shouts "busy", the wrong color combination. I've worn prints that mixed before, the trick is having colors that go well together!  The faux fix?  Her look would have worked if the prints were in the same color family. Or even had she paired either the top or skirt with a solid color. The accessories are also not right, they are great for work though.

Separately, the clothing worn by Star Jones (photo below) would be appropriate, but together, it is one big mess. The faux fix? Get rid of the hat and fur jacket. Her shoes are also too serious for such a cute maxi dress. Strappy sandals would look great!

Reality star JWoww is not your typical plus size, but she is curvy. While I love the idea of swimwear as outerwear, JWoww's top looks ill-fitting and cuts her in half. The faux fix? Keep the wrap, wear a better fitting swimsuit or blouse!  I love her shoes.  She should lose the hat too.

JWoww's bestie,  Snooki, is wearing a pair of parachute-style pants that can sometimes be a good look if worn right. I would usually say it is another fashion don't because it makes you look larger than you are. However, the faux fix would be to wear a fitted top and a pair of strappy or thong sandals.

I'm sure they probably won't care about the bad fashion list, or even my suggestions, but it's good to know what not to wear!  I might even make some kind of fashion faux pas again too; thank heavens it won't be all over the tabloids! 

 What are your thoughts on this curvy divas? Are my suggestions on point for each look?

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!

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 Stimpe...

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. Christina Aguilera at the AMAs in 2012 & 2013. ...
