Balmain X H&M Collaboration

Draped Silk Skirt - SOLD OUT It's not as if I didn't know there wouldn't be any sizes to fit my curvy bod, but I was hoping.  I was also hoping for size 11 shoes. No such luck!  I'm lucky that I can fit an XL or even up to a size Medium in most better brands.  I know some of my curvy divas or not that lucky. The one thing that I have noticed though is that the prices for the collaboration between Balmain & H&M is actually pretty good.  For those who don't mind spending a little more, they go from high, $299 and up; and those who don't want to break their pockets, from $99 and below.   That's pretty reasonable for most people's budget!

Have you heard the news curvy divas?  Alexander Wang, yes, the designer, the very one whose muse I want to be will be at H&M next month. Yes, in November!!!! What? I was very excited to hear the news.   The only thing that makes me lose the zest in my step is the size he doesn't have....yep, our gorgeous curviness! ~WAH~ I will get over it and I'm sure you will too but in the meantime, let us be the voyeurs into the world of Alexander Wang and seek out his designs, the link below is his bio where we will find out so much more about this collaboration with H&M.

Manstyle: Sustainable Fashion - H&M's Conscious Denim

H&M has a new campaign called " Go Green - wear blue, Conscious Denim by H&M" - ( colors my own design ) .   Firstly, you know how much I love H&M curvy divas , they are so on point with their style looks, even for us curvy divas, and they are so into sustainability and our environment. I love conscious retailers ! Before the style and look of the clothing caught my eye, their male model, well, he had me from the minute I clicked on the link in my email!  I know, I'm so one-track-sided....lol! I love my clothing fashionable and cute, like my men...kidding!!!lol! Let's just say I pinned him and his looks er style on my Manstyle board on Pinterest before I did this write up! At least it wasn't on my Raining Men board ~Har Har...~  H&M's new denim is available for the entire family, women, men, & kids; but for now, I do love the wool blend coat and the denim jacket featured.  Click on the links for each photo to go to the website. ...

What is True Plus Size?

You would think that by now, all of these retailers, designers and even so many of the fashion people "out there" would know what true plus size is.  It is NOT a size 8 or even a size 10.   It is definitely NOT a size 12, although many designers, retailers, and even some bloggers, declare a size 12 a plus size?  What?!  No way! A size 12 might be larger than a size 6,8, & 10, but a size 12 is regular size, read again, r-e-g-u-l-a-r s-i-z-e!!!! Please stop saying plus size begins at a size 12 because it does not.   Maternity clothing are for pregnant women, not women who happen to have a little fat around their tummy, or a bigger waistline!  Quit doing that, and you know who you are retailers! Aren't you just over these ridiculousness curvy divas?   I know I am!  Wouldn't you think that by now, these retailers would have their act together, but no, they don't.   According to a Motley Fool article penned by Leo Sun on fool.com, the ver...
