Show Me Your Closet

A year ago when I saw these neon-colored Betsey Johnson chucks on fabfitfun.com , I fell in love with them immediately! I love Betsey Johnson's style and I also love bright colors and thought these sneakers were so cool and pinned them to my Shoegasm board on Pinterest. Betsey Johnson Nexxus Sneaker as seen on FabFitFun In the article on FabFitFun where they were featured, they said that we (me and you curvy stylista), could wear them during the Fall as well.   Neons don't have to be only for summer , and I totally agree.   Fast-forward a year later - I found my pair at a consignment/thrift shop and immediately grabbed them up. The good thing for me was, they were brand new!   They were not from Betsey Johnson, they were from Mossimo, another brand that I love to wear, how perfect! I got the chance to prove FabFitFun right and wore my neon high-tops on one of our cooler days here in Orlando recently. They are comfortable and stylish, and not too "young...

If you have done it before, isn't it like, really fun?  I know, the clothes are used, and some of them are really so, old, but if you love vintage curvy divas, even better !   And if you love a bargain, you've hit the mother lode! Plus, some people really give away some really nice stuff so what's to lose?!!!!!!   I love thrift shopping and will continue to do it even when I have hit the mother lode!lol! Sidebar: you have heard the song by Macklemore featuring Wanz - Thrift Shop, ".... Only got twenty dollars in my pocket  I'm, I'm, I'm hunting, looking for a come up  This is fucking awesome... ".... I'll wear your granddad's clothes  I look incredible  I’m in this big ass coat  From that thrift shop down the road...."?!   Sub-sidebar: I've loved that song from the first time I heard it as a fan of VH1's Top20 Hits and One to Watch ..I tweeted about loving that song before it even started rocking everywhere! - (yeah, you ...

In the Love it or Leave it article I wrote recently curvy diva , I showed this bracelet I found at my local thrift store.  I actually do like it and so I'm loving it!!!!   It's not quite a gladiator bracelet, but it's wide enough and the design is quite vintage & unique!

I've mentioned before curvy divas, that I do enjoy going to the Thrift Store , rummaging, looking, and seeing if there's anything that I might be interested in.  I haven't?  Hmmm, must have been on my personal blog!  My bad!  Anyway, one of the things I like to do is to also look for vintage curvy styles, or any curvy styles for that matter. I have a love of accessories that is beyond anything else (not counting my family, etc!). I love handbags, costume jewelery, etc.!  It doesn't matter to me if it's not brand name, although if it is, that's a major plus. Today I found two items that I liked a lot. Actually, four, but we're only going to look at two of them because the two I'm definitely keeping, a beautiful white Express tank in white (no photo yet) & a grey fitted jacket, less than $10 for both!!! Talk about shopping on a budget!lol! Now to the items that I'm on the fence about: I love silver usually, but don't mind gold...
