Bold & Sexy Lips - Do you dare?

We have discovered that something as easy and simple as a blowout to our hair is a great way to give ourselves a mental boost that not only makes us feel good, but also boost our self esteem.  What other simple things can we do to continue these waves of good feelings?

 I often like to wear eye colors, whether it is using eye makeup powder, or eye liner pencils.  I am particular fond of blues and pinks.  Are you?  I find that using makeup to enhance your looks is definitely a way to give yourself a self-esteem boost.


I love mixing hues of eye liner pencils, this is Turquoise and Dark Blue


However, not everyone likes to wear makeup, or even eye makeup.  Although for some, usually just lip gloss or lip balm will do.  Why not go bold and dare to wear a hint of lip color too?




Whenever I wear bold eyes, my lips are neutral (daytime look)
I have been wearing a more bolder shade than the usual bronze or sheer nude lip colors that I usually wear.  Wearing red lipstick helps to boost my confidence. I decided to do this for a full week, not just for one particular outfit.  The results of that  has been an amazing boost to my self confidence and in making me feel good.

Red Lips is EVERYTHING
If you do not feel you can carry this off, try a tinted lip gloss or lip balm with a brighter hue.  Look for a Cherry Red, or a Bright Pink.  Now that is going bold! It is also another simple thing you can do to make yourself feel better and be more confident. Red Lips is EVERYTHING! #confidence.

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! ...
