You should wear - Sunglasses Trend

Although the Summer will soon be officially over curvy divas; yep, despite the fact that we are still experiencing sunshine and heat...Summer is over - at least, technically!  However, although we will be experiencing cooler weather soon, it's still good to wear sunglasses during the winter months. You do have to protect your eyes from the sun even during the Winter season!

I wear sunglasses, whenever I'm not wearing my required specs (reading/driving glasses)!  Wearing sunglasses helps me to see better when I'm outside and stops the wind from blowing into my eyes, which happens quite often and so I squint and guess what happens if I keep squinting like that?  Yep, crows feet!  I might be aging, but I want to do it gracefully thank you very much!  I also wear my sunglasses to protect my eyes from the allergen that are in the air, so there are good reasons to protect your baby blues and browns!

I've been looking at what are the top trend in sunglasses for Fall.  I love that I not only see colors, but patterns as well!  How exciting for us fashionistas who love to wear them! Paula Darnell of About.com, wrote about the Fall 2012 Sunglasses Trend. The looks that are "in" for Fall:

Tortoise shell frame - a fashion classic look for sunglasses wearers - a look I really like and have tried before.  We're talking faux tortoise of course curvy diva! I might just seek out a pair!



Oxblood frame - I'm thinking to myself, what exactly is an Oxblood frame sunglasses?  They're made with oxblood...is there ever a stupid question? No, if you don't know, then you ask, and seek the answer, right?!  From what I gathered it is the type of finish and color of the sunglasses frame, mostly with a dark burgundy or violet hue.  I've worn many an Oxblood frame and it's a very popular color that suits many people!




Cat eye frame - Is  a look I've seen time and again.  If you're not a confident fashionista, you won't be able to pull this look off! The sizes, colors and looks varies but  it's quirky, cute and fun at the same time!

Patterned frame - as in the look above, can be fun to wear!  It's a fun look to any wardrobe!  There are always a variety of patterns and prints for Fall and any other seasons for that matter!  You just have to choose the look for you!

Pink frames too? - This seems to be the "It" color for Fall!  It's a color I love but haven't sported in sunglasses before! I say go for it curvy divas!  Be fabulous and curvy in all of your glory!  Show your colors and wear them proud!



Accessorizing an outfit can be fun and wearing any of these looks will be!

Me 'n My 'Fro: On Being Natural - How it began

I mentioned the first article I wrote   about my hair that I would share with you my hair journey curvy divas. For the next couple of Wednesdays, that is what I will do on this blog.  If you are black aka African American as we say here in the United States (technically, I'm Caribbean-American), you know the ins and outs of our hair journeys. The success, when you rock your hair and look fierce; the woes, when you just give up and put on a hat!lol! And even wear a hat, just because you wanna rock that new hat!   I have always had what some called "a head full of hair", so much that the authenticity of my hair came into question quite a couple of times.  My mom loved to style our hair (my sisters and me) and would always have her girls looking beautiful in ribbons and hair clips where ever we went!   There are two incidents I remember distinctly, as a child, and as an adult.  Once in Primary school (that is Elementary here in the USA), a teach...

Found: The TShirt Dress

I found myself at the Mall of Millenia, a high-end mall the other day, Amanda and I went on a little adventure at which I was very excited. This mall is a bit farther away from us so we don't get there as often. It was about time I visited H&M...oh my love for that store has increased!!!  While I was there, I wanted to grab a handful of clothing and run to the fitting room, but I had a hard time finding my size.  Where were the larger sizes for us curvy girls??!!  I thought there was a sectioned for plus size-didn't see if one and couldn't find sizes for me. Jersey Maxi Dress w/raw edges at arms & slit It was a busy place so I couldn't ask anyone who worked there (I saw so few employees), but the store was pretty busy... however after looking around, I saw a dress I liked, a large was the largest size, I picked one in each color, a black and a grey;  it was a tee-shirt style, cotton-jersey material; with a round neckline and a slit that had me won...
