What Not to Wear to the Office on Halloween

Halloween is almost upon on us here in the United States curvy divas, have you decided what to wear if you plan on going out whether to a party or just trick or treating with the children.  Last year I wrote an article that gave some good ideas on what to wear for this special celebration.



When dressing up, your costume doesn't have to be with a mask or anything that looks outlandish.  Do you dress up at your office?  A few of us are dressing up at my office this year, and I'm not yet sure if I am too, although I want to.  But what can I go as and still be appropriate for work? 

Nothing sexy...no sultry dress up for sure!

Nope, that definitely would not be appropriate in the office.  And I agree with John in his article...this is one costume that shouldn't exist!

When dressing up for the office on Halloween, the word "sexy" should not be in the equation, period! Other dress-up looks that wouldn't be appropriate for the office?  Too much blood and gore, guns, knives, and especially not axes!

Most of the costumes I've seen are not right for the day time, so I will have to get creative!  My article on Halloween Chic linked above has some great ideas.  I can also wear colorful socks, or jewelry, perhaps my good ole purple wig will do.  I can even do my make up as cat woman and wear cat ears headband.  

Hmmm, not a bad idea!  What will you be dressing up as on Halloween?  Do you dress up at all, if so, at work, or just having fun after?  Do share and show photos of you in costume!

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...
