How to look SNATCHED for the spring! The curvy girls way to recover from winter blues.

SNATCHED? What's that? Snatched is when you look well put together and accessorized in your ensemble. Not everyone can reach the status of such a level. But, we're going to discuss some spring time ways of looking and being SNATCHED for spring.

Though I love spring and the symbolism of "re birth" often times that symbolism is lost on full figured or curvy women. As previously stated in the"Fashion Rewind" article a lot of repeats might and will occur. But, let's not concern ourselves with that as of yet; let's shift our focus to what's really important. You might ask, what's that? I'm happy you've asked! It's F.C.A.

F.C.A stands for Fit, Color, & Attitude. These three rules for spring time sexy are going to help every woman, regardless of size. Though easy concepts; to find a reflection of these concepts are difficult at best. Because of availability of certain go to styles in a size bigger than a 6; we girls(and guys too) have to get inventive.

Fit, as we discussed before; is your body type and knowing how to properly match clothing with your proportions. I know this is the hardest part of the three rules, because of the difficulty. But, a solution to this problem can be as simple as branching out of your comfort zone. When we curvy women find clothing in a particular place we tend to always go there in hopes that we will always strike gold; when that doesn't happen we become disappointed, angry, and depressed. All of which can lead to more weight gain, thus making the problem worse, do we want that? NO! I thought so! So, try visiting other towns, online retailers, and even thrift stores can have great finds if your willing to do the work.

Color,  the color you choose should be reflective of your style, personality and surroundings. I know some people are eclectic at heart, but know when, and where to go extreme! Some of us an take our personal style too far and people around us can get the wrong message. If you are trying to convey artistic, creative, & intelligent others may see slacker, self involved, & incapable. Though some may not care or disagree, try to remember those are the people your trying to get to notice your body or works; whether it be writing, music, spoken word, etc. that we can all safely agree on!

The next rule is attitude,  it can make or break a career. Too much can make you come off as arrogant, too little can result in you being overlooked when important projects come up, but just a little of both will give anyone an edge in any industry to make an impression, turn inches into miles, and put on the road to success. If you can project how you see yourself and feel in a positive way people will have no choice but to respond.

As always stay beautiful, confident, & sexy!

Dating the Voluptuous way: How curvy women should dress for a day or night out on the town!

YES! I'm absolutely going to go there! Dating is hard enough without adding the prep time it takes to get ready for it, but when you also add to the equation being plus sized it takes the "Dating Game" to a new level entirely.

The first date can make or break a possible future relationship, so it's important to identify whether or not your comfortable with this person in a setting were it will be the two of you and no other daters (double dating), or group setting. If you can, find out what type of date your going out on so that dressing for the occasion will be as effortless as possible. Not only will knowing ahead of time give you an edge, but it will also provide you with back up conversation material should you run out of things to talk about. But if your date is cute, articulate, and knowledgeable trust me you should not be lacking in the communication department. But should you find that they're all looks and no substance cut and run ASAP! Because there's nothing worst that a cute DULL date; whose only conversation is about me, myself, & I.

For a casual date: whether it be two people or a group, I would recommend a versatile flowing top maybe a solid color; something not too busy, a slim cute pair of jeans (to show off your shape or your hour glass shape), and a cute flat or booties to complement with limited accessories. It's best to stick to earrings and bangles to draw attention to your face and hands. Go light on the makeup, your date shouldn't be tempted to use a butter knife to chisel the foundation off of your face!

For a lunch date: I suggest to try and be dressy casual. That way you will be prepared for any lunch setting; wether it be in a bistro, a deli, a cafe, or a hot dog in the park; always put your best foot forward. P.S. Wear comfy shoes nothing too over the top that screams expensive & uncomfortable. That way if you two go for a walk you won't be unpleasant because your feet hurt. And we ALL know that when our feet starts to hurt the date or occasion is pretty much over.

For a beach or boardwalk date: Humm?That's a little more playful, so something light and airy would work best on this date. Possible a breathable cotton top, a crop pant or Capri, and a comfy light weight sneaker like Toms or a wedge. Little to no accessories and a light handbag if needed. On a beach date its likely that you will be out in the sun a majority of the time; so light clothing is essential. Also, there are plenty of boardwalk activities to do so wearing pants are a must! This date should be really fun so you can be sure there will be no awkward silences between you. Makeup should be minimal, and sun screen a must.

Now the date I know you've been waiting for the " Dinner Date" : This date is the most important date of all the dates previous. On this date there are no distractions. No friends, activities, or interruptions. This is when you really show who you are, and this is your chance to really WOW your date! When dressing show your personality; be classic but memorable. If wearing something black, be sure that your jewelry & accessories including your shoes stands out and brightens your ensemble. For your make up bring the attention to your eyes and mouth. You should always want to hold the attention there so that during conversation you'll be able to gage their reactions.

Over all, dating when with a great person can be a memorable experience or a disaster waiting to happen; but whatever the outcome please believe that you will be the best part of it! As always stay beautiful, confident, sexy, and full figured!!
