Are You Fixated with that Thigh Gap?

I have a question for you.  Are you letting the way your body looks, or the shape you are in, stop you from being who you are?  Do you wear whatever you want to in spite of what everyone else may think?  Do you wear leggings, skinny jeans, and any figure hugging style?  Or do you avoid them because you feel your thighs are too large and you can't bear to see them in fitted clothing styles?  

Don't let that thigh gap hold you back!  You can wear whatever you want as long as you are comfortable with yourself.  Being comfortable leads to being very confident.  To have that type of confidence you must love yourself freely without fault.



Whether we like to acknowledge it or not, chafing will happen for most people.  It is a reality and nothing to be ashamed of.  Our bodies are the way they are, and unless you are going to have plastic surgery to change the look and/or shape of your body, it is a natural occurrence.  Utilizing the right body or shape wear, or shorts worn with your clothing can and will make this more comfortable for you.  Also, by exercising and getting more toned, your excessive chafing can become a thing of the past!


I have three words for you curvy divas.  Love. Your. Curves.  You have to love yourself first; love who you are; and then you will come to appreciate your body even more.  Are you going to always like the way you look?  No.  The reality is that unless you are a continuously optimistic person who doesn't give two-cents about what others say or think about you, in life you will continue to have those moments of not being too happy with yourself.  It doesn't help when we are bombarded by The Media and there are photos of super fit and trim people in magazines and everywhere.  Most times the images of models and celebrities are photo shopped, don't forget that. The thigh gap you see may not be real after all!  Learn to love your curves because they are in all the right places!


A bit of news for you curvy divas, while some women are obsessed with it, most men don't seem to care:   http://www.buzzfeed.com/lindabarsi/men-say-what-they-secretly-think-about-thigh-gaps#.xl2qLWBXQ

Fall 2012 Trends

Summer is not yet over but already the fashion world has moved on, for some time now, to Fall !  I love to peruse any information I see about Fall Fashions before the season begins too; learning what the colors and styles will be, and to see if there are any trends to follow. Where trends are concerned, I firmly believe that it is best to choose the look that will work best for you.  You can follow a trend, but you should tweak it to make it your own! This is how you discover your own sense of style! I love receiving emails from Ken Downing, Fashion Director for Neiman Marcus !  He shared quite a lot of details in his latest E-mail newsletter to me!  To start off, one of Fall's fashion trend will be the: Statement Handbag : Michael Kors Skorpios Haircalf Ring Tote - $1,695 from Neiman Marcus on neimanmarcus.com Yes, animal print continues even into the Fall season!  Budget conscious divas will do what we do best and shop around for th...

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.

This beautiful dress is also not available in larger sizes. It goes to...
