Shop Til You Drop: Festival Wear & 90s Grunge Style T’s From New Look

Be Social!

Hey Curvy Chicks!

So last week I was complaining about how I wanted some new rocker t-shirts to play up the 90′s Grunge and Festival Trends for summer and was having a hard time finding what I was looking for in all the typical places. Well today I got lucky and was perusing the new  arrivals from the plus size line INSPIRE at New Look and found so many great tee’s that are exactly what this femme rocker was looking for! These tee’s paired with flowy skirts, short shorts, and comfy harem and jogger pants are what I am feeling right now hardcore, check out my favorites:

Inspire Grey Ornate Skull Print T-Shirt

Inspire White Endless Summer T-Shirt

Inspire UK Lips Printed Tee

Inspire I Will Rock You Printed Tee

Inspire Grey Punk On T-Shirt

It is casual Friday after all, what do you think of these T-Shirts from New Look INSPIRE as well as the rest of the line?

Shop Til You Drop: New eShakti Dresses For A Retro Inspired Look

Be Social!

Hey Curvy Chicks!

Lately I have been loving getting glammed up with a retro vibe. Pin up and rockabilly culture is huge here  right now and I am constantly on the search for flirty and feminine dresses that have structure and prints that are truly timeless but also on trend for the seasons.  These eShakti dresses are the kind of pieces that could be killer for a garden party, perfect for a day on your basket adorned bicycle, and fiercely retro inspired. Check out my favorites:

Her Fifties Sundress

Dotted Blue Dress

Butterfly Poplin Dress

Florilegium Dress

One thing to note and remember about eShakti is that they do custom alterations for perfect sizing just for your curves which I think it pretty phenomenal especially in regard to these types of fitted pieces. Make sure you check out all of the new arrivals at eShakti and get your shop on!

Be Social!

Hey Curvy Chicks!

HAPPY SATURDAY! I have been kinda diggin the idea of starting to post a bit on the weekends and I figured I might as well start today and launch another new category at the same time! Everyone is obsessed with Pinterest lately, am I right? Well I simply can’t get enough of it either and figured  it would be nice to share some of my pins of the week with you! In Re-Pinned posts I will share a few of my favorites that I have re-pinned from all the awesome people I follow over the week. They will fall in all sorts of categories and shine a bit of light into my world and the things that interest me! Enjoy :)

I absoluletly love this idea from ThatBohemianGirl of creating a tented or a gazebo area in backyard and giving it a really Gypsy vibe with pillows, rugs, unique lighting fixtures and tapestrys!

Awesome recipie for mini German pancakes made in muffin tins from Real Mom Kitchen that would make a great addition to the perfect brunch!

The cutest dog dresssed as a panda that could ever exist! Seriously this has me on a search for a panda costume for our Mini Doxie Delilah.

I am freaking IN LOVE with this Lolita Skeleton Lady Pink Cameo Gothic Necklace by lolarocks on etsy for only $13.99! MUST BUY THIS ASAP!

And last but certainly not least the perfect idea for my future daughter’s MY next girly tea party from Little Pink Par-Teas!

Apparently the theme of what I am loving this week involves a lot of pink, pandas, and pancakes!

Are you following me on Pinterest? What have you been pinning this week?

What I Wore: “You Can Have Whatever You Like”

Be Social!

Hey Curvy Chicks!

One trend I have always been interested in is androgyny. I personally am a huge fan of women who can appear ambiguous in gender and pulling it off from time to time myself has always been a fashion aspiration from me. When I decided to start rocking a full on pompadour I knew this would give me even more of an opportunity to embrace the andro trend but I wanted to do it in a truly classic way and I figured what better way then with a great tuxedo jacket.  I have been looking for the perfect plus size white tuxedo jacket for what seems like months now and I was so excited when I finally found the ideal match from Bespoke  I knew I had to get my paws on it, so I was thrilled when I received this jacket in my most recent review package from my friends at SimplyBe!

Earrings: Torrid (Gifted)/Bespoke White Tuxedo Jacket: SimplyBe (Gifted)/Sequin Tank Top: SWAK Designs (Gifted)/Pleather Leggings: Torrid/Hot Pink Sole Black Pumps: Shoe Dazzle

I feel in love with this Bespoke White Tuxedo Jacket on the site, then again when I saw it on the hanger, and once again but to the extreme when I finally tried it on! I recieved it in a size 20 and found it fit perfectly true to size based on my measurements. It buttons comfortably to enhance my curves by hugging the smallest part of my waist but also looks nice left open for a more casual look. The materials are high quality just like other items I have received from the Bespoke line before and you can tell this piece was made with consideration to quality and with curves in mind. The small details from the perfect collar width to the 3 button sleeve as well as the overall style of this pieces makes this piece perfect for any curvy girls wardrobe. For this look I wanted to wear it just like I would if I was going out and hitting the town while serving some serious fierce style. I paired the white tuxedo jacket with my black sequin tank I recieved a few seasons back from Sealed With A Kiss Designs and since the tank top has some extra length in the back to cover the hiney felt I could wear it with my black pleather leggings i’ve had for it seems like years from Torrid. I finished off the look with a pair of dangly earrings and a pair of black pumps from Shoe Dazzle. I felt like the earrings and shoes added some feminine quality to this look and I absolutely love that these pumps have hot pink soles that match my hair so well!

Loving this look and feeling SASSY!

What are you wearing today? Would you rock a white tuxedo jacket or another androgynous piece?
