Peace, Love & Curves

Looking boho chic can propose a challenge for the plus size frame because a lot of the looks are flowy and oversized which can make you appear larger but don’t let this idea turn you completely away from this trend.  It’s super easy to create a cute bohemian look; the key is to create shape and contrast with your pieces –adding dimension and texture without adding size and shapelessness.

Playing It Straight

Shopping for plus size curves can be frustrating because it may seem that all of the cute and trendy styles come only in size 0-12.  The plus size fashion industry has come leaps and bounds as far as offering the curvier woman more stylish options but I have learned over the past few years a very enlightening notion.  Just try it on.   Continue reading “Playing It Straight”

Modern Day Marie

If there was ever a woman that was boldly vivacious with a serious issue of being overtly indulgent, extravagantly fashionable and fit for the fab life (and one of the reasons behind the demise of the French Monarchy and the provocation of the French Revolution)  it would have to be hands down Marie Antoinette —  the Last Queen of France.   Continue reading “Modern Day Marie”

Pink Ladies

Pink — it’s the signature color of Elle Woods, Audrey Hepburn, Barbie, Miss Piggy, Shelby (Julia Roberts’ character from Steel Magnolias) and of girly girls everywhere.  From a soft pale rose or a vibrant hot hue the color pink instantly brings to mind femininity. Continue reading “Pink Ladies”

Charmed

Small details can take a simple idea and transform it into something completely new and different giving life and character to your outfit.  When shopping for clothes I always find myself drawn to these little things (bows, pleats, embellishments) that take plain garments and give it a touch of sweetness, femininity and ladylike charm.

Love & Prom

The word “love” is often applied to a wide variety a people,  places or things and although the overuse of such a lovely word may strip away its true essence I can’t help but love how love can be applied to so much — after all it is a many splendored thing.  I mean when it comes to l’amour I’m kinda a lush because I just have so many!  But regardless of what type of love it is it still remains significant.  I love my family, my bestie Nataly, a great pair of pumps (especially on sale), sipping tea in a pretty cup, watching Law & Order SVU marathons on rainy days,  and the city of Paris — for it’s many reasons but quite simply because it’s Paris, duh!

Custom Comfort

Hey Everyone!

It seems like I’ve been living in 4 inch heels lately so it was such a treat to chill out wearing flats and sneakers this weekend.  I’m a fan of classic looks and comfort and there’s something about a sweatshirt and sneaks that bring me back to the effortless style and easy days of growing up in the ’90s.
