Weekend Recap

Hello All...I had a really great time this previous weekend. My best friend (pictured above in blue skinnies and bandeau top) came to visit from Charleston. We did serious damage thrifting..finding tons of brand new tag on items I might add. I went to the Dillards shoe sale in SouthPark Mall (Loving my neon pink Steve Madden pumps above..on sale for 31.60!!) I actually purchased two pair of pointy toe type pumps and some nude flats over the weekend.  I decided to purchase the white sally hensen crackle polish which I love, I just painted it on top of some pink polish I already had at home. Saturday night my bestie and I hit up uptowne Charlotte, went to Hooters and had a great time at Club 935. On sunday I helped my mom at work..yes that's my mother above can anyone believe she's 43!! I don't enjoy thinking about turning 25 next year, I always say my quarter life crisis is on near, but my mommy is pure fab and I know we age wonderfully. I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.


Talk Soon.

Phone Pics

Just a few pics from my work fits. I need to purchase yet another new camera, but this time with a stand, there is no one ever around to take my pics. Luckily my employer has an awesome bathroom mirror lol. One thing I love about my wardrobe is that I have a large variety of pieces, I mix my high priced shoes with my 2.00 cardigan, or a t-shirt from Walmart with my designer bag. I believe when your a real Fashionista, you can make anything work!

SN: Let's not get into my glasses here people, I'm waiting on my contacts and I have been wearing these awful glasses for the last week:(  Hope everyone enjoys their weekend :)

..Let me count the ways

I have worn this skirt many times..if you scroll through you will see it at least twice. This is just a quick post of what I wore to brunch Sunday. I have so much going on I have really been slacking on my posts. Hoping everyone is enjoying the week.:)

Hola,
I know I have been missing for awhile. I have had so much going on, but I finally went out last weekend. I'm in Charlotte, NC at the moment and there is more to do here than Charleston, SC. Anywho I just was feeling some kind of way and was like hey I love my body, this big girl is wearing what she wants. I believe it's all about being confident, never wear something if your going to feel out of place. I always own my looks and play my Beyonce in my head "Diva". It's my theme music lol. Well hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.

Flintstone Pop

I had a great day yesterday, went thrifting, partying and had lunch with some great people. This outfit makes me think of a Flintstone sherbet push up pop, I use to eat all the time as a child. The orange shirt is the sherbet and the leopard is my Flintstones memory. I got so many compliments yesterday on my outfit, some say they wouldn't think to pair leopard with orange, but I feel like leopard is a neutral and I pair with whatever I please. I hope everyone enjoys their Sunday, I have some great things coming up in exactly ten days and I just can't wait to enter the new journey of my life. Talk Soon!!

Feeling Blue

Hi All,  Sooo much has been going on in my personal life, that I never have enough time to get up and have some fun. Everyone knows trouble doesn't last long, so I got out of my funk and went to dinner with my bestest friends today. Being around people while your going through things in life keep you grounded I'm glad I have good family and friends. I can't stress enough to plus size divas to try on clothes, this is a size medium dress and it fits perfect. Hoping everyone is enjoying there weekend.

Pop..Wop..Color Block

So as I'm writing this post, I'm watching the Braxtons. Even though Toni Braxton has always been my favorite singer, that Tamar gives me life. I find myself reciting Tamar lines all the time..lol..So yesterday I went to see Act like a lady, Think like a man, I loved it. I decided to stay on trend and colorblock, which I love. I notice I wear alot of blue, purple and pinks, that is all I see whenever I shop I guess. Well I hope everyone is enjoying the lovely weekend.

Saturdays

I really only have a life on Saturdays or some random day of the week when I decide to go partying maybe with friends. I like to take pictures of my day style,when there is a nice person to snap a pic of me:) I usually see on a lot of plus size bloggers pics of "club attire". Someone's true style should never just be limited to night, if you have style you should be chic day and night. Any-who, I had an awesome time on Saturday with some new friends. I wore my boyfriend jeans, booties and my thrifted polka dot top, with my hair in a bun, I was ready for the party. I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend.

Glitz and Glam

One of my really good friends had a party tonight. Her theme was "glitz and glam", when I think of glitz, I think of glitter..lol.. I brought out my Jeffrey Campbell Foxy's, I know many have heard this  before, but these shoes are really comfortable. I stood up about two hours and didn't really feel any discomfort. Everything was in my closet and I bought absolutely nothing. I am so proud of myself, shopping in my closet is definitely allowing me to try and be as creative as possible.
