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!

Backstage at OIFW Model Casting Call

On Saturday, yesterday in fact, I had the pleasure of attending a casting call for models , an event organized and hosted by Fierce Entertainment Management for their upcoming Orlando International Fashion Week, November  2-8, 2014 . Attendees at the event were welcomed by Fierce Entertainment's, Rob Henlon who then handed the program over to the vivacious Kristania Vielot who instructed the aspiring models for their walk down the runway, strutting their stuff for the designers and other members of the Fierce team. As the models strutted to the sound of the music-mix pumping, guests sipped and ate refreshments that were provided.   Before they walked the impromptu runway, I had a little  tête-à-tête   with three of the young models, Logan-9, Ashley-6 and Aiden-4,  beautiful, cute, and adorable , (who won't want me to call them that, but I am because they were) whose future will lead them to become what they dream of!   ...

Lacquered: Move over Glossy, Matte Nails are in!

In Purewow's Beauty section online, I read with interest that the new trend for nails this fall will be the matte finished,  as in shine-free!  Well move over glossy & shiny!  Remember curvy divas , there is matte makeup ; matte lipstick ; I even remember the matte finish jewelry trend , and now we have matte nail polishes!! Did you ever think that trend would be in nail polishes too?   According to Purewow, the Matte Finish not only comes as a nail polish, but also as a Top Coat! They recommend that we first try the top coat in matte finish to see if we like the look.  You can apply it over your regular nail color of the week and have matte-finished nails! Top Coat in Matte Finish SHOP The budget-friendly and cautious side of me agrees this would be a safe way to see if you do like the look (although at $19 each there's nothing cheap about it!) and just in case you don't want to splurge on every color in the line of matte finishes, I guess i...
