Work Outfit of the day: Plus Size Working Sexy!

Hello Dolls! I have discovered something amazing the other day while I was searching for a phone case and multitasking everything else in my life, I found cases for my IPhone on Amazon.com, and I stumbled on a beautiful blouse by PacificPlex. The top I'm going to review for you is a Brush Stroked Floral Satin Sleeveless Blouse with crystals in the middle of the flower print, the top I ordered is in white and black in  juniors plus size 5x. I know the size seems huge, but its not the juniors equivalent is about a size 22-24 in a women's size; so this was about right for me.

TIP: When ordering on the internet for any clothing, always check the size chart. Its easy to look as the sizes listed and choose the one that you would if you were in a store. Making a size choice this way could easily fool you, Why? because you don't know where the company is located and nine times out of ten the size equivalent in another country is different than where your from. So what fits as a size 24 in one place, can be a size 18 in another. If you live in the U.S. always refer to that sizing chart.



Front and back view
Though, the color your seeing is not the color I ordered; I wanted to give you a front and back view of the top when its not being worn. The lower part of the blouse in all spandex, which is great for a full figured woman, the top of the blouse is satin and it does fit a bit snug, but the back has some lycra to allow for a bit more stretching room. The neck has a halter inspired collar of the same satin material. When I tied the satin around my neck it made to feel a bit more snug than the first time, but not at all uncomfortable. To make the top more work appropriate I put on a short stretch shrug to hide the open back and give my arms some coverage.  Overall, I give this blouse a four star rating (out of five stars)!
This top wears well and I felt sexy and beautiful in it, if you guys were to buy this top from Amazon.com you will defiantly be happy!

Tip:  if you have big breasts the fit may be a little more snug on you then me so please be every mindful of that.

PICTURE TIME!

Accessorize Your Accessories: Just because it's in style doesn't make it right

Hello Divas! Today were going to be talking about over sized accessories trend. I am a girl about accessories, but ladies we must know the limits of being a truly fashionable diva! I love putting on accessories, it just has a way of making an outfit complete; however we do have a tendency to go overboard. Have you ever seen someone who should be on an episode of, ACCESSORIES GONE WILD! Well , I have too; and believe me I just want to tap her on the shoulder and ask her if she thinks that (earrings, necklace, etc.) is cute. But you can't do that without being offensive right? Over sized jewelry, earrings especially can weigh down your ears; and make your ears sag; Not a cute situation! So what should you do when faced with a similar situation? Number 1, the rules of purchasing DO NOT apply to the rules of accessory wear; for example when your shopping and you see something cute and it comes in different colors, you would buy one in every color; when in doubt get them all. That rule does not apply, when in doubt don't put them all on at once! Choose a few flattering pieces that complement each other as well as you; and your body will be a more clutter free space. Remember ladies sometimes less is more! There are a lot of beautiful, bold, statement jewelry and accessories out there that I'm sure will make your outfit pop with beautiful energy. But, there is also jewelry and accessories that don't complement you at all and can actually make you appear bigger that you are; and who wants that? Not you and defiantly not me! Stick to one or two statement pieces are enough, more than that your just looking for the wrong kind of attention. Just because its in fashion doesn't mean it's the right fashion statement for you. Second, Know what type fits your body, try them on in the store and examine yourself from every possibly flattering angle you can conceive in your mind before you make a commitment to buy, it you don't like it walk away knowing that you've made the right decision. Who wants to deal with the hassle of buying something for it not to work out; then have to return it? Third, make sure it complements your outfit for whatever event you maybe attending. There is nothing worse than not have the right piece to finish off your look. Lastly, definitely shop around. Visit places like forever 21, fashion bug, etc. Don't limit your self to one store just because you've found great items there before. Also, places like thrift stores also carry jewelry/accessories that are cute and don't break the bank, remember you could get some great finds in the oddest of places. These are just a few things that I do when looking for statement jewelry/accessories, What are some of the things you look for when making a decision to purchase? What factors are important to you? Please share some of your do's and don't of accessorizing in the comment section below. Thanks for reading! Until next time diva's stay big, beautiful, and fashionable!
