Having Effortless Style

There are times when I feel like dressing up, piling on lots of jewelry, makeup and really "killing it" with my fashion look.  And there are those times when I just want to be simply yet stylishly dressed.  No fuss, yet exuding effortless style.



I find that as I get older I am geared towards making my style more effortless.  Oh still stylish, just not as over the top as I used to be.  I wonder if it is because of our mindset, how we begin to look at life, where we are, what we are doing and what our outlook is why we begin to think differently?  I like to think that it is just a part of me growing up!


So while I will continue to "rock out" and have my fierce fashion moments, I want to do it in a way that exudes style-spotter confidence rather than as a trendy fashionista.  Am I making sense to you I wonder curvy divas?!  
I'm not going to stop being me.  Instead, I will be even more selective in what I wear, and wear it with the confidence of who I am.  

Going forward I am going to have a series of "style-spotting effortless fashion" and share what I think those fashion are.  How about you, are you changing up your looks and how you feel about your fashion?  I would love to know what you are doing differently these days!

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!
