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.

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.

Fashionistas - What's in a Word

You have heard this word before curvy divas , "Fashionistas"?  When it comes to anything to do with fashion and being fashionable, I am sure you have!  Do you know who coined the word and how it came about?  Well, first of all I didn't even realized that there was a story to the word, much less it being "coined" by any one particular person!  I just thought it was one of those words that came about and became popular because of its usage and in reference to anything fashion! According to Elle.com's Culture News, in an article by Rebecca Moss , the word Fashionistas was first created by Stephen Fried. In 1993, Fried, a young Journalist was writing a book about the Model Gia Carangi, who died very young, (sidenote-have you seen the [autobiography] movie of the same name, Gia? - I did and it is one to watch)!  Stephen met with people in the Industry and wanted a word that would represent who and what they were.  Because models and the Industry weren't p...
