Fashion Friday

Well Sports Illustrated just added more curves to their magazine! Plus size model Robyn Lawley has become the fist plus size model to be featured in the magazine. Before S.I Robyn teamed up with Swimsuits For All to recreate the 2014 sports mag cover with all curvy girls now this year she is a model in the magazine itself, how lovely. I love when I see fashion embrace women with curves!

What's The T Thursday

Not too long ago Bobbi Kristina Brown was found unresponsive in her bathtub. She was discovered by her husband Nick Gordon and a friend. She was taking to the hospital and was diagnosed brain dead and put on life support. There were no drugs found in her system and they don't feel it was a suicide. No cause was reported as of yet but it has been reported that doctors have said that it is time to pull the plug and time for the family to say goodbye. At this time there is nothing that anyone can do. There are so many rumors going around as to why this happened. One rumor is centered around her husband Nick Gordon; because he is Bobbi Kristina's only heir, upon her passing, he would inherit all the money that was left by Whitney to Bobbi. I really hope that this is just a rumor. I think this is a tragedy. You never know what is going on in someone's life. Bobbi lost her mother and took that really hard. Now this terrible thing has happened to her. Through TV and interviews you can tell that Whitney Houston really loved her daughter and would not want anything like this to happen to her. Also Bobby Brown his losing is daughter which no parent should ever have to deal with. This is such a sad story, all I can is that she will be with her mother again, in a much better place.

Whack Wednesday

WHAT IS WHACK IS THIS WEATHER!! It is so cold, windy, snowy, icy etc... I don't know if every big girl goes trough this but winter coats can be an unflattering thing. In the summer I can find something amazing to show my curves off and in the winter in a effort to keep warm I always wind up with this huge tent for a coat. When I try to wear something "cute", trying something more fitted or shorter, it always ends up not keeping me warm. I have come to the conclusion that I need to take more time finding the right jacket. Something that not only looks great but fits well too. So I stumbled upon these cute and warm jackets from Reise's Pieces Boutique
(www.reisespiecesboutique.) Down below I put some of my favorite styles from the boutique.  They run in sizes xs-2X(the white puffy jacket goes up to 3X) and are priced from $59.99-$89.99. They have a ton of amazing products; very sexy and high fashion; so go and check them out! Please stay stylish and warm this winter, I know I am.

Truth Tuesday

GoodHey everybody, if you are in warm weather I don't like you! Jk, It's so cold in Philadelphia I can't even feel my toes :(. So I got good news, I got a interview!!!!! I'm actually at my second interview today. Somebody finally called me. It's a part time offer but it's better than nothing. I will be merchandising and that is something I love to do so I'm happy. It's also tax time which makes me even more happier. On the diet tip, I am not doing good. I was slacking a lot a bit but I will get back on track as soon as a get a schedule going. I was thinking of getting a waste trainer so I can get that coke bottle look(still a thick girl so like a thick coke bottle.) I'm not a expert on it, so please, if you have any thoughts about it, advice, suggestions please let me know. I heard that so many people were wearing the trainer and not training lol. I 100% intend on working out and eating right while wearing this thing, I don't wanna be the girl who wears it out and acts like that's really what my stomach look like. Valentines day is approaching and I don't know if I have a Valentine :( I'm scared to go on date lol; it's just not what it use to be. Oh well, maybe it will be me, a nice wine and Netflix. Oooohhhh and 50 Shades of Grey comes out ooooohhh. I definitely need to go see that. Even though I don't agree with the casting for Christian Grey; in my head I pictured him totally different. Let me know if you agree???? I have to go now they calling me for my interview, wish me luck. I'll tell you all about it when it's over :)........Upadate: Looking Good So Far Just Gotta Take A Test AndThen I Think I'm In.

A Time To Remember

It is black history month and I wanted to do something special. There are so many African American Legends that have pave the for me, as women of color to be free to choose and succeed at whatever I put my mind to. Since this is a fashion blog I have chosen some African American fashion designers to feature each week for the month of February, that weather you know it or not, have made a impact in fashion history. This week I wanna feature Ann Lowe. Ann was high societies secret weapon. She designed one of a kind clothing for New York society families like the Rockefellers and the Vanderbilts. she also created a amazing gown for actress Olivia de Havilland that she wore the night she won an Oscar for best actress in 1946. Ann Lowe's most famous client was the first lady herself Jackie Onassis! Anne was the designer of the wedding dress worn by Jack O when she married John F. Kennedy and also created all the dresses for the bridesmaid as well. No one ever knew Ann Lowe's name, when someone was asked who was the designer they would respond "it wash some colored women." Well now everyone knows your name! Ann Lowe you were an amazing designer and inspiration to us all.

Madly In Love Monday

It's the winter but that doesn't mean you still can't look red hot this Valentines day. I thought it would be a good idea to feature clothing items that I love for this romantic holiday every Monday, this Febuary. This Monday I'm in love with these jumpsuits from Ashley Stewart's. They are both online exclusive and can be found at www.ashleystwart.com. The black jumpsuit is priced at $54.50 and comes in sizes 12-24. The red jumpsuit is $59.50 and only has size 26 available. This is the perfect peice to wear on a romatice Valentine's date with your someone specia.
