Curvy Collaborations: Lilly Pullitzer at Target


Have you heard the news curvy divas?  Lilly Pullitzer the fabulous icon of all things print and pattern beautiful will be the next designer capsule collaboration at Target.



At the end of the summer last year, while shopping at my local Target and not "feeling" the style-looks that greeted me, I inquired about the next collaboration and was told there would be none for a while.  Guess what; it is happening soon, sometime this spring, on April 19, 2015. There are two things to note though, the first is those ladies who are oh so major spenders of the brand is not liking the Target collaboration.  They believe their brand is taking a step down from their high-end market to put themselves out there to the masses at large.  Um, I'm going to leave that alone as my comment may not be that nice.

Secondly, while the collaboration will have plus size,  you won't be able to go on a shopping spree with your girlfriends in the store, only online.  Say what now?  Yep, you and me, and our curvy friends won't be able to make your selection and go to the fitting room to see how much we like our choices, nope.  Your fingers will have to walk all over your keyboards and shop online.

I'm already losing interest in this. My excitement has waned and I'm totally over those rosy patterns!  How about you?  Will you be checking out this latest collaboration?  Do let me know what you think.

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...
