CURRENTLY CRAVING : ASOS SALE EDITION

spring edit 1, asos, summer style, asos curve, plus size, full figure
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.

NIGHT

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!

ON REPEAT: CROP TOPS & MIDI SKIRTS




top ASOS    skirt THRIFT    belt & rings H&M     shoes OVERSTOCK

Dont know what it is about this color but I hate to love it. I am not one to over spend on trendy item but I find my self having an unhealthy obsession with neon green, lime, citrus, citron, chartreuse what ever you deem fit to call this color. I especially love pairing it with neutrals like grey, taupe, even beige I think it adds a nice pop to an otherwise drab outfit. Also something about this color screams tropical vacation thats probably why I dubbed it pineapple. Additionally my love for midi skirts has yet to cease and that is why this is hands down one of my favorite pieces. Lastly crop tops have become a street style fav for newbies like me and also for those who were mature enough to have rocked these in the 90's. A great way to rock these tastefully, is to wear them with something high waisted, its really faltering and subtly sexy. Have you tried the crop top trend? How to do you feel about it on curvy/plus-size women yay or nay.
P.s. If you find that you are wider in the mid section, you can break up the horizontal line by adding a jacket or vest especially if your feeling a bit exposed.

MONO-ESQUE




shirt: H&M     skirt: TARGET     booties: NINE WEST      rings: TARGET  H&M
In this outfit I feel like I am channeling my inner Solange (her style is literally the sugar in my tea). The weather has been bi-polar lately one day its 60 and its looking up, another day its snowing which turns into freezing rain lol! I guess thats what I love about the monochrome trend cause although its supposed to be a spring trend to me it lends its self more for winter. However you could spring-ify the trend with pops of color like tangerine and pineapple (almost sounds like a tropical drink). Can you tell from the pictures how much I adore this skirt (actually the fabric) and it was only six bucks! You can check out the additional items I scored during the end of season sales in my latest HAUL.

P.s I am on the hunt for a modern pant suit (preferably in color) so if you come across one in size 16 please holla at ya girl!

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.

BASICS




sweater: OLD NAYY (get HERE HERE HERE) pants: THRIFT  (get HERE HERE ) Shoes: TARGET  (get HERE HERE)

Hi dolls! its the ninth day of the new year a week has already gone by wow! I predict this year is going to race by, which is kind of bitter sweet for me because my not so little munchkin is turning six soon . Seems like he was born yesterday however before I procede down nostalgia lane let me get back to this post. I seem to be keeping it simple these days, I actually wore this outfit before the Gray post but thought it was too simple for the blog (I need to stop second guessing myself lol). After reading this post by stylishcurves and watching this vid on pocketsandbowsTV  I decide otherwise. Also black and white seem to be the combination of the moment. I am so behind on up and coming trends I seriously need to do some homework, I can tell you to keep your eye out for stripes preferably black and white and for the color emerald. Last september was hectic for me because I was transitioning so I was out of the fashion week loop, on that note I cant believe Fashion Week (NY) is only a month away time flies, this time last year I was preparing for IFBCON. By the way I still feel like the outfit is missing something what would you add?

P.s If you are a blogger and you havnt been (IFBCON) its definitely an experience and now they have jazzed it up and made it a two day event.
