Curves Around the World: Straight Size Only

Afternoon, Friends!!!

 

Today's post is exciting - me and my gals from Curves Around the World group have decided to scout for items and looks created only for slim bodies. We need to recreate them with what exists in our closets. What we have can be from a straight size range or plus size as long as we capture the looks created for slim ladies.

So, our theme is STRAIGHT SIZE ONLY!!!

 

I saw a beautiful Skater Dress at Asos by Karen Millen. It reminded me of a dress I bought on sale at Fashion World last year. I never wore this dress let alone post pictures here on this page. So, this was a perfect way of dusting it up and celebrate its amazing animal print and fit. It is also from a straight size range and its a size 42/18.

 

I think I nailed this challenge as both outfits look most similar. I carried a sling bag instead of a clutch because I don't really like clutch bags. What do you think? I am a knockout, aren't I? LOL.....

 

Enjoy and please leave feedback for me :)

 

Enjoy your weekend!!!

Animal Instinct

Anything animal print drives me crazy... I have too much love for all different shades of a leopard print ... this has to be my favorate print in the universe. Whilst passing time waiting for a friend to have tea in Matatiele. I literally bumped into this dress on a sale rack and I could not leave it behind even though I had insufficient funds not to mention that buying something was not in the menu for that day but this dress definately had to go home with Mama :) No regrets at all though!!!

 

Am sure you all agree that I am smashin hot and Im killing it in this number. Compliments at work were constantly thrown my direction and I was all smiles because this is one of the cheap outfits in my wardrobe and yet does magic for me and everyone around. 

 

What nearly spoiled my day was the weather that changed drastically even before stepping out the door before going to work  in the morning and I had to put on the jacket which was way better than changing the entire outfit for the rain.

 

This is definately a YaY for me!!!! What do you think? Ja, its a Yayyyyyy..... hahahahahha
