What To Wear For Date Night: Operation Valentine’s Day
Is it February already?
Next thing you know, we’ll be complaining about how hot it is instead of the 20 inches of snow outside! Until then, we’re getting ready for a date on Valentine’s Day!
Recently, I was asked, to share what I’d wear on a date on one of the most romantic nights of the year. Back in 2014, I put together several outfits that any plus size woman could wear on this day, flashback with me here. Date night fashion can be a tough thing to tackle, ugh the struggle.
First things first, even though this is my idea of date night fashion, here’s something everyone can benefit from…
Now, moving on to the good stuff…THE CLOTHES! Oh, and the shoes! We all have a favorite pair of jeans that make our butt look absolutely ahh-mazing so start with those and get to adding!
From…
- Moto-boots to strappy stiletto’s
- A clutch to a chain link cross-body
AND
- Several options for tops
I think I’ve covered just about all the bases for a casual date! As I mentioned earlier, there really isn’t a need to go out and buy something new, especially when most of us already have TONS of options hiding somewhere in the closet, like me. (Blah, I really need to start getting rid of stuff! Garage sale anyone?!)
Anywho, save the money you were going to spend on something nice like, hmm, I don’t know…a pedicure maybe! Those are always nice. Plus, if the lucky guy is a great date…well, you know how that can go. (PSA: protect yourself!)
No matter where my honey takes me (hopefully he let’s me know it’s a casual place beforehand) I’ll be set to look my best.
A Plus Size Halloween DIY Costume
It’s that spooky time again!
Halloween is fun for so many reasons. Mainly because we all get to dress up and be carefree kids again!
It’ll more than likely be chilly on Halloween here in Michigan so usually any costume that might be “sexy” or revealing is out. Especially if I have to stand outside wainting in line to get into whatever packed club/party my friends want to go to. This makes picking out a costume a very hard task.
So this year, instead of buying an already premade packaged plus size costume that sometimes doesn’t fit, I decided to DIY a costime.
Easier said than done.
Here’s my Halloween costume idea for 2014…
I’ve been out searching for weeks to find all the pieces and parts needed to make this lovely Cleopatra/Egyptian Goddess but didn’t have much luck.
Walking through the aisles of the fabric store, I hear the numbers being shouted “85, 89…” I look up from the piles of fabric to realize, they’re actually calling numbers just to get fabric! Four stores later…..I have in my possession, pieces of a costume. Maybe I should start looking in April for 2015’s costume idea!
So the search continues.
I wanted to have everything together to share with you guys so you too can make it with me.
Stay tuned and be ready to hit the streets or stay in for a party on Halloween night!
Wedding Planning with Loverly: 3 Dream Day Styles Just For You!
Planning a wedding can be stressful.
I vow to never ever experience that stress on my dream day. With the help of sites like Lover.ly, planning a wedding can be just as fun as pinning a pin (but better)!
My dream wedding would be a destination wedding. Sun, sand and only 5-10 people at an intimate setting. Plus, we’ll already be on our honeymoon! Who can resist that?! Clearly my idea of wedding planning is on the quick and simple side but for those of you who are looking for a much more extravagant theme, these are for you.
Here are three different scenes as the backdrop for my ideal day. Feel free to “steal” them if you’re in the planning stages yourself! Don’t worry curvy girls, each theme has wedding dresses that are available in our size!

Daks — London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015
Flowing shades of purple and lilac made their way down the runway.
Giving a glorious ombré effect once the show came to a close, Daks’ Filippo fused whites and shiny silver shoes to complete the look.

Ready To Wear – London Fashion Week – Spring/Summer 2015
London Fashion Week sneaks up on me every season! I’m usually putting the finishing touches on my fashion faves from the Big Apple and BOOM; it’s already day three in London! Don’t know how the fashion world does it but they do a damn good job at it! London brings the high society out for a play date to show off their new frocks on the runway.
As with New York Fashion Week, continue to keep an eye on this post for your updated links to my faves.
Charlotte Ronson — New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015
Gotta love Charlotte Ronson’s style!
Forever the quintessential rock star style, Ronson opted for soft and starched fabrics for a spring style that’s sure to flatter any body type. Even though the Charlotte Ronson line doesn’t offer larger sizing, it won’t hurt to steal these looks for your own closet!

Carolina Herrera — New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015
Timeless.
Classic.
Effortless.
Are just a few words I’d use to describe Carolina Herrera and her collections. Season after season, Herrera gives us bold yet feminine looks that will take your wardrobe wherever you want to go! This season focused on displaced floral patterns and thigh skimming dresses that are perfect for lunch with the girls.

Mara Hoffman — New York Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2015
OK, this is a very personal fashion week fave.
Mara Hoffman interprets summer like no other designer I’ve come across. The prints she chooses always make want to hop on a plane and take a tropical vacation so I can feel the sand beneath my feet.
