The Look: New Year's Eve the Weddington Way

Picture this curvy divas, your friend is getting married on New Year's Eve, oh the joy! Then she asks you to be her bridesmaid, and guess what else?  No, not wear that same bouffant dress from her cousin's wedding, oh the horror.  You will be able to create your very own bridesmaid style, your way!!!!

Your instructions are, since you are ready for this adventure, "You have to select from the bride's choice of dresses".  All you have to do is accessorize!!!! 

This beautiful champagne lace dress from Weddington Way is the one!  Picture this, I'm thinking monochromatic & luxe femininity. However, do not outshine the bride, that's always a no-no!

The Weddington Way Nora Dress: A perfect choice. Gorgeous, lace styling, monochromatic, yet luxe - you could style this many ways.

 Our choices:
Lace gloves:  What better way to add that air of sophistication and femininity, with an oomph of luxe.

Strappy heels:taupe/beige mesh number to enhance the beautiful design of the dress, and also oozes sex-appeal!



Earrings...gold filigree that shimmers as you nod happily when the bride and groom say their "I-Do's"!  



And do we need a purse or not?  Of course we do! An elegant envelope bag is necessary - no shoulder straps here! You've got to have something to put your lace hanky in.

Overall, the makeup will be vibrantly neutral, and oh that beautiful red lipstick you peeped online will be perfect because the bride wants you all to have red lips!

~Whew~ I don't know about you, but all this styling is exhausting, and totally worth it for a fabulous look!  What do you think?  Are these choices great for a festive New Year's Eve wedding? What would you wear differently?  Leave me a comment below.

Wearing Red

It's Valentine's Day again and I'm sure many of you curvy divas are wondering what to wear tonight?  Some of us have plans, but others will keep it low keyed at home...or not! Whatever you do curvy divas, I found some great suggestions on Elle.com!  They featured RED , in everything, accessories, clothing, make up, even underwear!  Here are my favorite picks! I LOVE this dress! The silhouette is beautiful and will flatter most body types!  I checked and this item doesn't go larger than a size 12 by the designer, and they are out of this style at Neiman Marcus, however, it's a great look and you can find something similar elsewhere!  If it is too long, find a shorter length.

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! ...
