Curvy Looks at the 2015 Golden Globes

You and I both know how difficult it is to decide what to wear when you have an event to attend curvy divas.  We must consider the type of event and wear clothing that is appropriate.  Our goal is always style first, then comfort, especially depending on the weather conditions.

Do you think it is the same for actresses and celebrities too? Although they do have stylists and designers to doth on them, I'm sure they worry about what they are going to wear, and how they will look. Add to that, what we, the public, and especially those fashion critics will say about their style choices.

Tonight is one of the most glamorous moments for Hollywood film & television stars, The Golden Globe Awards. I had to check out the curvy looks on the Red Carpet.

Melissa McCarthy's style is a "DIY" (do-it-yourself) style. Do you think it is from her upcoming curvy fashion line?  She styled her gown the way she wanted it to look, and you know what.....?

I LOVE it!  I like that Melissa's look is a non-traditional look for the red carpet. The detailing on the skirt is not too overdone.  The blouson shirt also has details such as the bishop sleeves, a bow- with the right touch of glitter, and which complements the collar for a finished look. Some may think this style is totally wrong, however, her silhouette is leaner and her do-it-yourself detailing makes for greater appeal, in my opinion.  Her side-swept ponytail is the perfect hair style as well.  Her accessories are on point, including those cocktail rings!

Actress Lena Dunham is wearing a Zac Posen (hi-lo) dress.  While I like the color, what a gorgeous red it is, and the sati-sheen finish of the dress adds glamour to her look, I am however, not fond of the fit of the dress on her.  The boxy style gives an odd shape to the bodice of the dress.  I'm in love with her pointed-toe-Peter-Pan looking shoes. I would have love to see her in long, shoulder-sweeper earrings with this look.

The ever so curvy Jennifer Lopez has me going ga-ga over her smoldering looks in a Zuhair Murad gown.  She is walking and styling s-e-x-y! Oh la la. My favorite look on the red carpet!

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!

Love Wedges? How to wear them!

I have this thing with heels that when I mention it to anyone, they look at me as if I'm weird.  I have to, HAVE TO wear heels, at least 80% of the time.    The reason why I have to wear heels a lot is because I'm flat-footed. Yes, I have very low arch , so low that if I wear flats for two to three days straight without any height in heel, my feet will hurt and then I have to wear heels to make my feet feel better. Weird, or a more serious condition? Who knows?!   I wear heel height from 4inches to 6 inches! Nope, I haven't mastered the 7inch heel, and I won't even try.  As a curvy girl, a six-inch heel is the height where I stop! I like wedges, high heels, and stiletto heels.  With some platform heels, popularly called wedges, the heel can be low, or high; however, the main thing is, the heel will balance the height of the heel so that you can walk with confidence!      On about.com, Desiree Stimpe...

A Re-post: Red Carpet Reviews - 2013 American Music Awards

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.
