Cuvvy Looks: Summer Stylin from Domino Dollhouse-Doll Parts Collection




 Are you ready for it?  Have you heard about Domino Dollhouse's Summer 2015 collection! In her email to me, Designer, Tracy Broxterman, said "(This collection) is our love letter to our high school selves, embracing grunge 90s styles." 

Style looks from the Doll Parts Summer 2015 Collection


Do you remember Grunge Fashion?  Me too!  Grunge was very popular in the 1990's as Tracy mentioned, in fact, 1992-1994 were the popular years for it.  At that time many fashionistas, and non-fashionistas alike were wearing, 
"...flannel shirts, ripped jeans, mom jeansDoc Martens, combat boots, band T-shirts, oversized knit sweaters, long and droopy skirts, ripped tights, Birkenstocks, and hiking boots.." Wikipedia.org. Women's Fashion , Grunge.  

In the collection I am really loving the Hyper Ballad Dress in Grey,

and especially the Pretend We're Dead Vest in Grid.


the Grid-styled Vest

 ~Style notes~: What I love about the vest is the cropped styling! I've said that curvy divas can wear cropped look as long  as it is styled right for our curves, as these are!

You have also got to see the jewelry selected for the collection. My favorite is this Chain Hoops Earring in Silver. ~swoon~



I think we should definitely go quickly to dominodollhouse.com to view the full Doll Parts Grunge-style collection and select our favorite look before they are all gone, wouldn't you agree curvy divas?!

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!

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.

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! ...
