I've Got the Rompers Fever!

The last pair you saw me in, rompers that is, were the Milly DesigNation ones.  I loved them.  I was window shopping, didn't get them.  My loss!  I admittedly said I wouldn't wear them out but at home, because for me, they were cute but too short. I do LOVE them! I found another pair that were just as cute. They buttoned down the front, had cap sleeves, and were two inches longer.  The black and white pattern were so stylish!  The cap sleeves had epaulets!  

The Color Trend

In my last article I shared my love of neon colors.  But my love of colors doesn't end there curvy divas . I love all colors bright and vibrant!  Pinks, purples, greens, yellows, turquoise...just give me the rainbow!!! I like seeing fashionistas who aren't afraid of color. The very idea of wearing anything other than black, white, or brown, does scare some people.  If you are one who is afraid, l et this be the year that you buy one vibrantly colored item , a pair of flats, heels or wedges, or even a pair of sunglasses will do!  Make yourself gorgeous by choosing the right outfit, pull your hair back, or wear it down. Now put on those sunglasses, (or shoes) and step out in style! You will be glad you did! Take a look at some of these great looking choices below, and maybe, dare to wear a color choice or two?! Love the vibrant color skirt! Photo from Viva Luxury Gorgeous pink! Such a great look!  Photo from Smitten Studio Online Here I ...

Plus Size Swim Suit - Fatkini

I couldn't wait to share this with you curvy divas !  Remember the forever staple in the regular-sized closet, the Bikini. Then the Tankini was created and has fast become a favorite for some of us.   Now there's a new type of bathsuit on the scene, hello Fatkini!  You might have already heard about the Fatkini?   It is a 2-piece swimsuit, a bikini for curvy girls!  Created from the collaboration between Gabi Gregg, Plus-size blogger and Swimsuits For All, a swimsuit retailer!   It has become so popular, they've sold out!!! Wow!   It looks like a fun suit to wear, and the design is definitely very much geared to hit our assets in the right places!  Would you wear it?  I think I just might! I'm not sure I'm liking the name "Fatkini", are you?   However, owning our bodies and what we love about ourselves is always a good thing, so the name stands! (as if!)

Summer Footwear Trends!!!!!!

Nothing says Summer is here like fun pairs of sandals & heels curvy divas!   Especially a great pair of turquoise-colored ones such as the ones below!   I love the warm weather, and I adore the color Turquoise because it reminds me of the Ocean!  These are great to wear with anything for a great casual look. I wore it with knee length shorts and a jersey tee recently. If you haven't yet, it is time to begin thinking about what you will be wearing in these beautiful summery months!  I usually wear sandals, flip flops and wedges! These kitten heels are recent additions to my wardrobe! You can dress it up, or down!

Beach Ready Products

As the really hot summer weather is coming up soon curvy divas , your minds will drift off to vacation-time and seeing the ocean might be in your travel plans!  I love going to the beach. I sit on the sand, play with my daughter and run into the sea, a lot!  I also like walking on the sand where the waves will roll around my feet...hmmm, I can just imagine it now! One of the things that I dislike about the beach however, is getting sand in my hair...yes, I know that's a given and I tolerate it if and when it happens.  I also don't like having dry salt water for too long on my skin because of the dryness & itch that ensues! I was reading The Zoe Report on thezoereport.com and what perfect timing, Rachel featured some products that would be great to use for those Beach days!  She features a Bumble & Bumble Surf Creme Rinse Conditioner and Foam Wash Shampoo .  They are made with body-enhancing minerals and skin softening sea botanicals, sea fennel ...
