Fall Style Looks for the Office

I stopped by one of my favorite style maven, Rachel Zoe website, the Zoe Report recently and saw some great suggestions of what to wear to the office.  It can be a bit unnerving at times wondering what to wear to work, and even though at my office it's business casual, I often wonder if my choice will be the right one for office wear, and last but not least, will this look good on my curvy body?  You do this too curvy divas?  Well, here are some ideas on how to amp up your style for Fall curvy divas, you can click this link for more: the Zoe report.

I love the jacket suggested by Rachel. It's understated yet dressy and can be worn with skirt or trousers. Size ranges to a size 14.
 
My find: add a little "kick" to your wardrobe 
with this cleverly styled jacket. 
Size ranges to size 24W.



This lace blouse might seem over the top, but yet again, it is understated and not flashy!
My find: beautiful lace front shirt works just as well, 
Size ranges to a size 22!

I love her suggestion of this wool skirt.
It's great for any body type.  
    


SHOP


My find: Vince Camuto Midi Tube Skirt
Sizes to 3X
       


Over the knee socks is a great addition to your wardrobe if you don't want to wear tights. So why not add them to your work-wear?  Under a knee-length skirt, or with trousers worn with boots, booties or heels....only you will know!

Did you know loafers are a great trend for women's shoes too, and not just for men?  I love that they are available in heels and platforms too.  Those Jil Sander's booties are great, but rather on the high-end for cost. 

Here are a few budget-friendly pairs to check out.

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...
