Zara Stores...American Women too fat?!

Zara Sizes for women I have seen these stores before, Zara, and their clothing look pretty nice. I don't recall going into one of them and perhaps it is a good thing!  Thursday on Good Morning America (GMA) it was reported that Zara stores won't expand further opening more stores here in the US because American Women waistlines are too big! Really?! The store's main clientele is smaller sized women.  They do well in Europe and Asia, but not so great here because they don't carry sizes for the curvy divas in the United States!  Proof in point, there were two fashion bloggers with the Journalist reporting, who were size 18-20 and could fit into an XL most times.   When they tried the clothing at Zara, they couldn't even fit an XL. The reporter who wasn't a larger woman by any means, just fit into the XL!  They do make their sizes too small! As noted by the model from the article I read below.  She's a size 4/6! So even a smaller sized woman or a reg...

Aesthetically

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, wouldn't you agree curvy divas ?  My beauty may just be different from yours. What exactly is your style? Playful? Romantic? Conservative? Fun? My style is a bit of everything, less trendy and more aesthetically me! My Style board on Pinterest reflects my likes! I like dual roles for Bustier & Corsets..foundation garments & as outerwear! Pinned this look via W Magazine!   Jacket w/feminine blouse - structured, conservatively romantic (all at the same time) We all need one  (or two) curvilicious dress in our closet! Flirty & Printed Skirt Accessories! This look was pinned to my Accessorize Me board ! A statement necklace...my favorite to wear! What is your style aesthetic?

Leggings

I love leggings and   despite what the other folks out there in the sizes 0 - 12 world may think and they always opine, there's nothing wrong with a curvy diva in leggings!  It's always been a cringe worthy moment when I hear comments like "women that size shouldn't wear leggings" or "leggings are not pants and should not be worn by themselves"! While I agree somewhat with the latter quote, I do say "yes" we can wear leggings! Personally, I prefer to wear leggings with tunics or with dresses that are shorter.  I am more comfortable wearing them with leggings.  What I do not like seeing curvy divas, is a woman in leggings paired with short, tight tee-shirt.  Most time the leggings are too thin and there will be a glimpse of butt crack! Seriously, stop that!  It is always good to look in the mirror at your backside before you jaunt off on your adventure.  Be sure to look at yourself in outside lighting (standing by a window), not just wh...
