What I Wear in a Day: The Sexiest Top Ever

Recently I did a "Found" article write up about a gorgeous, s exy top that I recently acquired and asked for suggestions on how to wear it .  Googler (totally made that up!)  +Nami's Fashion Light   gave me some great ideas!   Nami's Fashion Light 6 days ago + 1 0 1   1 Reply   Hi Donna! I just saw  your post on how to wear this top that you found and I couldn't help not think about how you could wear it. For a top like this that is more loose and draped, you could wear something more form fitting, like a nice pair of leather/pleather black leggings with some pumps OR a pair of high waist jeans but tuck in the scrunch band inside for more emphasis on elongating your legs and also more focus on the draping of the top with some sandal heels or pumps OR, a pair of jogger pants with the same matching color for a monochromatic look or bold printed jogger pants for a play on solids and prints with pumps or sandal heels. ...

The Leather Trend: You Need These in Your Closet

I'm fascinated by leather, are you curvy divas?   It is the smell, look and feel that makes it such a fascinating clothing choice.   The versatility of leather is boundless! You can wear any leather item in your closet with anything , which girl (or guy) doesn't like that?!   I was perusing elle.com recently and found an article about what else....LEATHER! I had to share it with you.   I saw these shoes and immediately thought "Oh my shoegasm"! These heels are to die for.  The look, the style...we are shoe lovers after all. Giuseppe Zannotti SandalsPhoto by shoescribe.com as seen on elle.com I love the look of this leather bracelet. The hook design means it won't be hard to put on or take off all by myself.  Leather stretches so I can fit it on my wrist. It has a kind of "rocker-chic" look that I like.

A Conversation about Fashion - Emerging Designers

I have had the link to this video for a while, however, due to the previous template I didn't share it in the proper way until now!   In 2010, six emerging designers had a conversation with Eric Wilson, New York Times Reporter, about developing their business in New York. They talked about the opportunities that were "out there" and shared their individual experiences, as well as their mentors, if any, and other designers who they admired. They gave New York props because people are more willing to work with them being new and emerging designers. What stood out to me from this conversation curvy divas , is the love each of these designers have for their craft, sticking with what they believed and not giving up! It is great that each of them realized their own design aesthetic showcasing their individuality!
