When Wearing Black Goes Wrong

I think I can say for most of us that we do enjoy wearing black from time to time, right curvy divas?!  In fact, for some people, they wear only the color black.  I say that's a bit obsessive, but hey, I'm not judging.  Being a transplanted New Yorker living in Florida, I almost fitted that quota too, except for my love of bright colors ~whew~!  Even my prints are black and white!lol!

Have you ever worn a black outfit thinking it's going to be just fantastic and you will "blend" in with the scene of wherever you planned on going?  Sometimes we just don't want to stand out, you know what I mean?  Well, by doing that, how can you go wrong?!  I didn't think it was possible though until I read this article on Huffington Post, and saw the photographs of celebs wearing black, and oh my, when wearing black, went really wrong!

I like Selena Gomez, especially because my teen is a fan of hers...but what was she thinking in this outfit? Can you see what is wrong?  First, the jumpsuit is a tad too large on top, the material is also what makes it how so wrong.  


Miranda Kerr, where do I even begin.....? Maybe it's the cut of the style...too much going on?  

What do you think curvy divas?  I'll be the first to say I've had off-days with my style look, so personally, I will cut them some slack.

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!   ...

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!

Shoes, Fabulous Shoes!

There's nothing like a great pair of shoes that finishes an outfit.  You can have on the most darling outfit, but if you don't have the right shoes to go with it, well, somehow you end up feeling like, "Meh", to quote the perfect noncommittal, blah expression! Men of the world, there's one thing you must know, shoes makes the outfit, that's why we women have a variety of  them! In  my quest for nude-colored shoes this season, here are two looks I love from Elle.com "Best Spring Heels" feature. Suede wide-strap wedges from the Gap - $89.99 [Mark  Platt photo] You can never go wrong with Platforms!  If you love having a high heel without the stilts, wedges are the way to go! Paulina Cork Sandal heels from Bebe - $98.00 [Mark Platt photo] Although the linked article is from last year, the color and style are pretty on point for today's look!  The height of the heel is balanced by the platform at the base of the shoe.  Take ...
