Houston There is a Problem

I found out a couple of things that I will share a bit about now, and discuss in more detail on my lifestyle blog at another time, soon.


I have changed the template because it was compromised. Fabulously Curvy's template was duplicated by another site, in another country.  It was not a fashion blog, but of another genre that utilized our previous template and didn't tailor it to their own needs.  Even the colors were the exact match, fonts, layout, everything! It confused Google's search engine and flagged my site, enough so that our ranking was no longer defined, and our site pushed to a sub domain page. 


I will continue to my plans to have a premium site & template before the year is out.

Please be patient while I tweak my content to fit this Blogger template.  I feel safer utilizing it right now.

I am ticked off at this, legitimate sites links to yours when you have a successful blog.  It gets you seen on Search Engines, and my legitimate links were literally "swallowed" up by this duplicity. It sucks!

I back up my sites and content always.  Highly recommend. And I do recommend you curvy divas if you blog, to keep an eye out on your own sites for problem you don't see. I'll share how I found out all this soon. 

There's a lot going on for me off-line that requires my full attention. I am keeping up by posting once or twice weekly now, and will be back to our regular schedule soon.

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.

Fashionistas - What's in a Word

You have heard this word before curvy divas , "Fashionistas"?  When it comes to anything to do with fashion and being fashionable, I am sure you have!  Do you know who coined the word and how it came about?  Well, first of all I didn't even realized that there was a story to the word, much less it being "coined" by any one particular person!  I just thought it was one of those words that came about and became popular because of its usage and in reference to anything fashion! According to Elle.com's Culture News, in an article by Rebecca Moss , the word Fashionistas was first created by Stephen Fried. In 1993, Fried, a young Journalist was writing a book about the Model Gia Carangi, who died very young, (sidenote-have you seen the [autobiography] movie of the same name, Gia? - I did and it is one to watch)!  Stephen met with people in the Industry and wanted a word that would represent who and what they were.  Because models and the Industry weren't p...
