I am especially partial to 6 and 3

DAY

Maxis, swing and tank dresses and maybe dungaree's are all the items I plan on living in this summer. I just need to get my hands on some gladiator sandals that wont break the bank and I am done.
Asos is currently having a sale 20% off everything as usual Asos Curve always delivers and of course makes it real hard to stay on a budget. I decided to share my DAY and NIGHT picks. You can purchase any of the pieces by scrolling and clicking on any of the images at the bottom of the post.

spring edit 2, shopping guide, asos, take20, asos sale, asos curve, plus size
I am especially partial to  8 so chic so NOW 

P.s  I dont  know about you but if you are like me you dont like paying full price for anything. So I was supper excited when Asos started a program called UNIDAYS where they give students 10% of their purchases everyday, just like other high street brands like TOPSHOP and NEWLOOK but the awesome thing about UNIDAYS is that you dont need to have a membership card all you need is your student email address at your institution and your good to go!  You can thank me later!

SPRING TRENDS 2013: SUITS


After the hiatus we are back to spring trends as the title says the next trend is SUITS. So I have to say that one of two things must be happening its either I am getting older and my style is slowly becoming like my mothers "cringe" or fashion is truly repeating itself and my mother had killer style . I used to detest suits growing up, suits with embellishments, cut-outs, shoulder pads and lace; now I go thrifting looking for these things. 


Any way the "suit" trend has been building momentum  for some time, and as you can see Ms. Gabi was ahead of the curve. The suit trend has been modernized to include prints, lux fabrics, in season colors as well as shorts. 



As much as I love short suits I just dont think its practical for my life, I tried to picture an occasion where it would be appropriate and for the most part I couldn't.  So its the pant suit for me preferably in a bright color like cobalt, purple or green. I would also love a printed one (SOLANGE is the queen of those) but I want to start first with a solid colored impeccably tailored suit. So how do you feel about the "modern" take on suits are you sold. You can check out my picks below.

SPRING TRENDS 2013: MONOCHROME

HOW TO WEAR MONOCHROME PLUS SIZE

So I typically do one big post showcasing the upcoming trends, however I decided not to do it that way this time. As we know not everything we see on the catwalk is ment for the crosswalk. So I've decided to feature my TOP FIVE "wearable" trends for SS 2013 one post at a time.

SPRING 2013 TREND MONOCHROME

The first would be the MONOCHROME trend. Now I dont know why its called the monochrome trend cause I always taught mono ment one (I googled it and I stand corrected) and since its black and white wouldn't dat be two? This color combination has taking over, from stripes, to windowpane prints, to polka dots. Moreover its a personal fav because its wearable and you can easily shop your closet. So have you started your spring shopping, purchased any black and white items or tried the trend. 

PLUS SIZE FULL FIGURE  CURVY BLOGGERS  IN MONOCHROME

Every season new trends come and go but everyone knows that theirs rarely anything new under the "fashion sun". If you are on a budget first shop your closet, if that fails vintage/thrift stores offer great quality pieces for less and finally when your satisfied that you have done due diligence shop! 
I did some searching here are my favorite picks across these "inter-webs" from Asos to Lane Bryant.

ITS MY BIRTHDAY..........

ways to wear asos midi printed dress

MONTH! Happy Birthday to all the FEB babies from my Aquarius's to my Pieces!! I was actually born in between the two signs; the story of my life ( cant never be categorized lol) any way thats for another post. So I thought it would only make sense to post the outfit I wore to a friends birthday night-out which was on the Inaugural weekend. Let me just say that that weekend was crazy. Since I live in the DC NON-METRO area it was just another weekend for me, it wasnt till I got into DC METRO area that I realized the ridiculousness of the situation. I hadn't realized that so  many people actually migrated to the capital for the event.


dress: ASOS ( get similar HERE HERE HERE )   bag: THRIFT   watch: MK (similar HERE)   shoes: VINCE CAMUTO 


The Highlight of the night was probably seeing Jamie Fox he looks different in person (smaller). On the opposite spectrum I left my ID in my car and we carpooled, so  I wasn't sure if  I would even get in, the lounge/club we went to was packed there were definitely fire violations and of course this had to be the first time in years that I actually overpaid to enter. So the moral of the story: I learned that clubbing is not for me anymore, am strictly a dinner and lounging kinda girl and if I look a little cray in the pictures its because they were taken at four in the morning.

P.s So happy that my birthday coincides with tax return season have a few things on my list. First order of business start taking care of my skin. I am after all getting older. I am thinking of getting the Clarisonic has anyone tried it?

So I was browsing one of my favorite sites Asos and as usual I wanted everything on the site! but I noticed that they had an assortment of LBD's then it clicked to me that the next comercial holiday, Valentines Day is around corner coincidence maybe. While brainstorming for the post I decided to do a "naughty" and "nice" post. I dont know about you but I know most women bring their "A" game on "vals" even the ones that are anti -valentines; cause if you have a man your making sure his attention is on you and if your trying or "not trying" to land a man your making sure the attentions on you lol!

I hope you like the selection of sexy LBD's that are sure to keep the attention on you.  I am definitely loving  Mesh/lace/cut-outs right now, have you noticed this peek a boo trend its a curvy/plus-size woman's best friend. For those who dont want to be sexy maybe because you are trying not to give the wrong impression the "nice" post will be up shortly. So how will you be spending valentines do know?

P.s I am seriously coveting the open back dress but I have a similar style in a mini from Asos( makes sad face) and the mesh and velvet dress is only $28 bucks!

NEW YEARS

classic pinup look MAC RUBY WOO

HOW TO WEAR BANDAGE MIDI SKIRT  PLUS SIZE

NEW YEARS EVE 2013 OUTFIT IDEAS
top: Rainbow ( HERE ) skirt: INC (get similar HERE  HERE ) bag: Thrift  (similar HERE ) shoes: Vince Camuto



Hi Dolls! I hope you and your love ones are having a happy holiday. Just wanted to do a quick post on the New Years Eve look I created as part of a Collab video between NaturallyFashionable and ONtheQtrain. I usually dont do post for my video's (so subscribe if you are into video's) but I decided other wise. I went with a classic look that would be easy to recreate. A lace blouse is a going out staple 
(if you dont have one get one HERE HERE HERE) and I used here as the base for the look, I knew that I would have to include my two current faves my plate belt from asos ( which I have seen on quite a few bloggers so I know I am not alone) and my bandage skirt. To finish of the look I chose metallic accessories.

P.S I am 100% sure I will be spending my new years eve in church ( kinda like a tradition we loathed growing up), the older we get the more like our parents we become lol! How will you be spending your new years eve?

CHRISTMAS WISH-LIST

Dear Santa,
I have been good, I have sacrificed for my friends and family, I have .................................... 

Beyonce  asos plain band rings
Rings: get it HERE

So if you are following me on FB you have seen these rings I first spotted them on the "persianbabe" on youtube at least six months ago and I wanted them. Mainly because they are so minimal and easy to wear. I dont wear a lot of jewelry on a daily bases and as much I like the look of an arm party/multi rings I slowly realized that I neither had/have the time nor the patience (the multiple clasps on bracelets). I bought multiple bracelets to stack but the only place they are being stacked is on the jewelry organiser I bought. Subsequently the minimalist and simplistic look of these appealed to me (you dont need any fashion IQ). Still not sure why I haven't purchased them it might be because of my overflowing jewelry organiser lol!

solange  blue and white floral blazer

Kohls LC Printed Floral blazer
(get the Floral Blazer HERE )

The next thing on my list is a floral jacket I have to say I have become a collector of jackets and I dont own a floral one. Printed jackets are in this case floral jackets are great because they easily add oomph! to a simple outfit. I love the tuxedo style on this jacket and how versatile the print is it can be worn with an all black assemble in the winter and completely revamped in the spring.

Celine trapeze luggage tote dupe JC penny liz claiborne weekender tote
get the Weekender tote HERE


Celine Bags

I first spotted the Celine luggage tote 2+ years ago on an european street-style blog showcasing models off duty and I was instantly intrigued. I wasn't as familiar with the Celine brand but I knew it was high-end and out off my budget, but I still wanted to know how much a bag like that would run. Needless to say I couldn't find any retailer in the US at the time that carried it in stock at least online anyway, with further digging I found out it was only on special order. I believe Nicole Ritchie was the first american I spotted carrying it. Fast track 2+ years later the Celine brand has become a Blogger fav; anyway on my budget the Celine is out of the question but I was drawn to this bag from JCPenny's because it had the look of both a "Trapeze" and a "Luggage tote". If I cant have the real thing, this is close enough its genuine leather, the price is definitely right and I can pretend its a Celine lol!

Asos curve leather Jacket christmas list
Get it ONSALE HERE and a pretty nice pretend one HERE and a gray version HERE

I have got a "pretend" leather jacket  thats what I call my H&M pleather jacket but I am seriously in want of a real leather one (its definitely a wardrobe staple/must have and its something you will wear consistently). I have had it on my thrift list for years now I am yet to score one. The difficult part is I carry weight in my arms so many times when I find deals online I am scarred to purchase because in the past the body would fit but not the arms.You can imagine how excited I was when Asos curve came out with a real leather, moto style jacket and in my size, I did a little dance; all I need now is a 100 Asos gift card.

Get the Flower BOMB! HERE

Confession In the last 4 years I dont think I have had a fragrance; when I was in high school it was j'adore Dior thanks to my mom. When I started college it was the Escada summer edition ( I also tried Euphoria, Kenso Flower to name a few). One thing about me is that I have very unsophisticated taste when it comes to fragrances (thats why I tend to prefer summer editions). I like them fruity smelling I HATE!!!! musky perfumes I dont like anything complicated. I guess thats why my VS body sprays have been working the last four years (that is when I time to spray them). Anyways I won a 100 gift card to Sephora and I was determined to buy something for myself ( I am kinda glad it was Sephora and not some where like Target cause it would have been spent on the house) I figured I would try a new fragrance, I smelled the original Coach Poppy last year and loved it; unfortunately for me they didn't have the original poppy set, they had the poppy flower set and I didn't like the smell. So I went to exchange it and I smelled Flower-BOMB! this stuff is amazing but a little pricey. They only had a small set so I got a Versace set instead but this will be my next fragrance purchase gotta make up for four years lol! if you haven't smelled it run dont walk!!


Christian Louboutin spike pumps Christmas list



Ashley Madekwe in Christian Louboutin studded spike pumps


Get the Real Deal HERE  a similar version ( ONSALE and for much less) HERE HERE

Had to save the best for last. So in the good book ( bible) it says ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find......, some folks believe if you put it out into the universe it will come back, so that is what I am doing. Not sure on who or when I spotted these Loubs but I have been obsessed ever since. It is SEX in a shoe (to me anyway). I have spotted dupes online but since I have man feet ( 10.5 wide = size 11) they didn't have my size. I also spotted a dupe in my local Macys but they didn't have my size and I couldnt find them online either. If this is all I got it would suffice as my christmas, birthday and anniversary gift lol! But honestly even if I could afford this in my budget  I am not sure I would buy this for myself. I think things like this should be gifts (diamonds, expensive watches, bags, shoes e.t.c)but then I am a girl with simple/inexpensive taste "wink". 
So whats on your christmas List?

P.s I have typed so much and if you took the time to read all of this thank you! happy holidays!! please remember in the mist of all the commercialization the real reason for the season "LOVE""FAMILY""THE LORDS BIRTH".
