Show Me Your Closet

Leggings, the bane of fashion to some, the joy to others.   You know how I feel about them already curvy divas, I LOVE them!  Simply because they are so comfortable, and are the easiest go-to items in anyone's closet.   You must own at least one pair.  You can wear them for work outs:

Tomorrow, or make that later today I will be going behind the scenes at a model casting call for an upcoming event. It will be for Orlando International Fashion Week in November.  I will share more details later curvy divas. For now, I was looking for something to wear that will not only be stylish, but comfortable too.  Is there such a thing in fashion?  Sure!   Leggings (and maxis) are always my go to for comfortable styling .   I went shopping in my closet and found this pleather or faux leather top.  I decided to try the top on with both a black legging and a print one but couldn't decide which look was better.

Being a curvy diva, I cannot just throw on a tee shirt and go, I will wear a tank top under a tee shirt...
