Paris Fashion Week: The Look in Couture for Spring 2015

You know how much I love fashion for us curvy divas, hence this blog. You also know that I love fashion in general because of what I do share with you from my perspective.  But did you know that I love Couture?  Stop by and visit my dedicated Pinterest board.  I enjoy posting to it all things couture from around the Intraweb.
This a gorgeous look from Giambattista Valli - love the Tulle!

You may already love couture yourself because if you love fashion that is made to order, well, you are a fan!  As a young girl at Primary school I had to take Sewing and Needlepoint.  My mom was enthusiastic for me to be in that class to learn how to sew.  It was where I learned to sew embroidery, how to stitch and even design and cut.  Alas for my young mind at that point, I was just not awed by that class and was very happy when it was over.  My focus was more on writing and acting which I continued through high school.  
Check out these leggings-style latex boots!

It is interesting that my blogs have brought me full circle, directing my path to my love of writing, and back to my love of Fashion and Couture!  In Elle Magazine, Ruthie Friedlander wrote about the recent Couture Week in Paris. As usual the style-look, details and texture are absolutely divine.  These are a few of my favorite looks featured in the Elle magazine article.

I love the texture of this Georgio Armani Prive' design

Curvy Looks: What I Wore In a Week

I like reviewing my Style-looks to see how my fashion has progressed, what clothing I intend to keep during my #Showmeyourcloset make over (more on this soon) and also just in case I have to re-think my style strategy when in work-mode. There are good days when my looks are on pointe, and those moments when I wonder what the heck was I thinking with a look that I wore! That may have happened to you as well at times curvy divas?! You know, when the clothing you wore makes you go...WTF?!  This was not how I envisioned this look. I can't wait to get home to take it off!lol! Been there, done that so many times! haha

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 . H owever, 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. Weddington Way Nora Bridesmaid dress in Champagne  Our choices: Lace gloves:   What better way to add that air of sophistication and femininity, with an oomph of lux

Vintage Vogue

In March of 2012 before I decided to create this blog, I shared my love for Vogue magazine on my d-foreverserenity blog with the article I am super-imposing below. I have this "thing" for magazines. I won't say obsession...I love the glossy pages, the colors, and usually read them from cover to cover....! I had so many magazines piled up, I had to get rid of them...and yes, regretted it the minute I did! Anyway, I'm so glad there are online choices now!!!! Takes up less place in my bedroom!lol! I have saved some of my favorite issues, and shared some style inspiration and observation below. These were my  favorite looks from a  Vogue  magazine issue from August 2006 , six years ago in the past, I know, but I have tons of mags and I love  flipping  through the pages!  These  looks are so fresh today !!  Vogue  featured the color combination of  "The  Red  is the new Black" - red being the new black at the time!
