Curvy Stylebook: How to wear Leggings

Leggings is a fashion item I will continue to write about curvy divas. Why?  It is a favorite go-to clothing item for me. It is comfortable, goes with almost everything, on top, with the right clothing, or beneath, again, with the right clothing choice, you can rock your style wearing leggings.

Some fashionistas will continue to say, "Oh, leggings are not pants, they should never be worn outside". To that I will always disagree. One of the negatives about some leggings is the fit, they are like a second skin after all and will fit your body to a tee, as in watch out for camel toes!lol!  Not to forget dimples and everything else.

This is when you wear a longer tee shirt, or a tunic or even a mini dress over your leggings. One of my favorite thing to do is to wear layers on top of my leggings; this way I have lots of styling options! Being a curvy diva, I cannot just throw on a tee shirt and go, I will wear a tank top under a tee shirt; or wear a mini/short dress, or a tunic with leggings. I have to find some really nice print leggings though. I think I play it too safe with dark colors every time!

I love these fun Romwe leggings - take note of her tunic, and worn w/boots = Fun!
How about you? Do you like wearing leggings? What are some of your styling choices when you wear them? Do share!

A Re-post: Red Carpet Reviews - 2013 American Music Awards

Another post of mine that was a write up for Orlando Fashion Week Magazine.  It was published there previously.  If you missed it, I'm sharing it again here on my blog for the first time, with some edits for relevance of course curvy divas. A writer's work is never done! Let me know which celebrity wore your favorite style! Did you watch last year's AMAs? Me too!  It was one of the best with my favorite Mr. Worldwide, Pitbull as host.  Did you catch the fashion that walked the red carpet?  No? Well, pull up a chair and I'll fill you in. At the 2012 award show, Christina Aguilera was beautiful in all her curvyness in a Pamella Roland dress, unfortunately, she went overboard on the suntan lotion.  Last year, she showed off a much leaner physique in a white Maria Lucia Hohan cut-out dress with a high split on the side.  Her shoes were Christian Louboutin peep-toe and I loved her pave jewelry.

Hair Trends: Rainbow Colored Hair

I've got a new obsession. Yes, a new one, rainbow colored hair.  I am fascinated by the women who are bold enough to do this look. I did my own bold look two summers ago when I went a very daring red.   I am actually antsy and really want to try pink and blue and green...need I say more? LOL!  Because I have to keep my looks under wraps (at least for the next couple of months) so that I don't scare the very conservative people I work with.  I cannot be really "loud" with my hair.  In my heart I am a child of adventure and do not let others bother me but I must admit there are times when "they" will suppress my spirit. These days though I'm happy to say that I'm learning to live in the moments and I am again learning to let me be me. So yes, I will find a way to try new colors and I do like rainbow colors! How exciting. What I do like about rainbow colors are that there are some that are really LOUD , and others that make a statement without be...

Does Sustainable Fashion have a Future?

Being environmentally conscious is something I am learning to do and it is fast becoming a favorite topic of mine curvy divas . I believe that as time changes we are all learning to not just be aware of our environment but to act to protect it as well! We have to change our attitudes and behavior in our lifestyle so as to consciously help ourselves. Last month H&M along with Vogue put together a panel of fashionably conscious people participated in a live discussion held at The New School for Design at Parson's, about "How can we create a more sustainable fashion future".   Once again I turned to one of my favorite online fashion source, Refinery29  where writer Glynnis Mapp shared more about this outstanding event!  The panel discussed ways we as consumers could practice sustainability in fashion, and also how the government could be involved. There was suggestion of a "by the pound incentive program for consumers..." and where "points" could...
