Curves Around The World: Signature Colour

 
Good Evening, guys!!!
 
This weeks theme is a toughie for me, SIGNATURE COLOR!!! Who has a signature color?? I dont, Lol :)
 
 
Bright colors suit my skin very well and makes it glow brighter but ... a very big BUT I prefer earthy toned colors. Not just one but all earthy colors - I love them solo or combined together. They really just do it for me :)
 
 
I wore this outfit last weekend out and about in the evening with Thandiwe my close friend - whilst getting ourselves snacks in some shop: we just randomly started taking pictures and imagine the stares we got our way. Good thing we didn't care cause we were just fooling around and having fun.
 
 
This outfit has a combination of earthy colors: olive, brown and oxblood. There is an extra light blue color that blends well with all other colors worn. I think did well combining them all!!!
 
 
Whats your signature color, if you have one???

FATNESS SWAG

Hey guys,
 
Hope you all enjoying your weekend. Just wanna share with you my todays outfit and live you with this message. Accepting and loving ones self is very much vital because it gives you satisfaction and peace of mind: ALWAYS!!! This applies to everyone: THICK or THIN
 
There's always rules, perceptions and attitudes towards what FAT PEOPLE must or must not wear and that upsets me because why cant we be given freedom of wearing what we feel like and just be accepted as we are instead of being trapped in a box. We are as smart and creative like everyone else breathing in this planet. Why are we treated as if we are just dumb souls who cant make sensible decisions concerning our wardrobes? Who doesn't know that they should look a certain way when in different situations??? Whats more upsetting is the fact that we have limited options and yet have to be told what to do as if things that are being suggested are always within reach. I struggle finding clothes and getting someone telling me what not to wear is just devastating.
 
As a result of all this: We FAT people are expected to look a certain way and if we are non compliant to this then we are regarded TRASHY. Well, you can call me trashy as much as you want - if I feel good and see myself looking great when looking at my mirror - the rest is history. Ofcoz, I would never get out of my house not ensuring I look decent. When people see me around the streets they give me some stares *which I love* :) because many fat people are less confident to spice up their looks to their satisfaction and this is due to media and society that have prisoned them in a boring box. ME on the other side I REFUSE to fall into that trap because I love dressing up. I look around the world of fashion and get inspired to wear what I feel like because is not a crime to do so.
 
I hope this post inspires many FAT WOMEN out there to break the chain of imprisonment and liberate themselves into a great world of style and fashion without doubts and regrets for exploring looks that they have been aspiring to wear.  
 
This is me TODAY and I am LOVING MY OUTFIT :)
 
I haven't worn pants for more than 8 years now because I hated how I looked because I am fat - right now, I am all grown up and understand even though I am fat and struggling to lose this weight I am allowed to wear what I like when I need to: REGARDLESS of my weight. Whilst figuring my way on how to lose this weight, I must not punish myself and not live and lead a positive life I need for myself because not everything is about how much I weigh. So, I am embracing me as I am and people like GarnerStyle, KellieB, the_ms_supa_thickk and others are great examples for many women in my position to do themselves at all times.
 
What are you scared of wearing in public??? When do you think you'll free yourself? Think about that :)

Bridal Shower Outfit

Hey, guys!!!
 
Two weeks ago I attended a bridal shower of my very close friend Pamela Sontsaka and I had a blast :) 
 
I have many pictures so I am deciding to show you what I wore first and then write another post for the actual bridal shower event. The theme was WHITE for all of us attendees (her friends from all over) and the bride wore a coral dress. I guess, we were given an opportunity to shine in our white outfits so that on the day of the wedding she can be the only BRIDE, lol.
 
I don't usually buy white items as a result I was cought up in my own web undecided on what to wear. I tried hitting the stores to check for white items I could wear on this day and you know what happens when you look for things last minute: you have slim chances to get what you are looking for. So, I was unfortunate :( 
 
I decided to dig my closet for all white items I own - out of that there were 4 white dresses with different make. I chose the one I am wearing because I wanted to be comfortable and true to myself cause bridal showers are fun and mainly full of games. Heels were never gonna cut it for me, not on this day #justification, lol :)I went, the casual route ... and I was gorgeous, yes: you heard me - gorgeous hahahahaha :)
 
So, here is the outfit :)





Dress: Pick 'n Pay
Crochet Top: Thrifted
Belt: Woolworths
Necklace: Fashion World
All Star Sneaks: Asos
Watch: Guess
Vintage Bag: Bid or Buy
Bracelets: Truworths, Lovisa & MrPrice  




Hope you enjoyed my "Bridal Shower Outfit" and loved it as much as I do :)
 
Thank you for visiting and taking time reading this post, I really appreciate!!!
 
Cheers, guys

Anchored Maxi Skirt

Good Afternoon fabulous friends :)

TGIF!!! I know, we all are tired from this entire weeks share of work from our workplaces but lets celebrate that at least we are getting a breather before next Monday arrives :)

I wont say much than just telling you this is an outfit I wore at work yesterday. Thought, it was worth taking pictures of - the weather has been so misleading lately. We are expecting shiny sun and we get something like that but mixed with cold wind ... this outfit accommodated that kind of weather.

I loved this outfit in person and the pictures are also making me love it more. What is on trend where you at??? Maxi Skirts are trending in South Africa and people are really rockin 'em, I strongly think I do too :) Don't, I?????

Ombre Oxblooded Maxi Dress

Good Evening ... ladies!!!
 
I have been seeing some ombre maxi dresses in stores and on the streets of Mzansi - some are nicer than others. Whilst enjoying these scenes, I remembered that over the past few years I also invested in an ombre maxi that I buried eversince last summer - I hunted down for this dress from my closet for another wear at the office. Because its not really summery yet, I decided to pair this dress with my knit American flag crop top - to warm me up at work.
 
Has the ombre trend kicked-in in your country???



Dress: Woolworths
Crop Knit: Foschini
Bag: Coach

Earings: Mr Price
Bangle: Target

Enjoy the rest of your weekend my fabulous friends and thank you so much for your feedback and visit to my page. See you soon!!!

Curves Around The World: Week 18 - High Waisted


Heya, fabulous friends....
 
Its that time of the week again and I know how you have been waiting to see what we have in store for you this week. Our theme is High Wasted!!! Nice, right? Really, who doesn't love high waisted clothing items? They certainly give us shape and bring that womanly vava-voom.
 
I decided to wear my thrifted flowered high wasted boob tube dress. It is Spring and the weather is really warming up. So, this outfit was worn last Friday at work as you all know we always wear casual outfits on these days. This was my version of being casual at work. I really love this outfit: it is funky, playful and cute. Yes, I really am beautiful and I see that from these pictures.
 
I have been very busy at work last week as a result I have not been able to take decent pictures. I am just lucky to have these pictures because my colleagues like taking pictures of me even when we are working and I really don't mind them doing that as long as you can see REAL ME on these pictures with my entire attire clearly.
 
So, what do you think of my High Wasted Version? What is your favourite High Wasted item? Pants, Skirt or Dress - Or all of them, WHY NOT???

Denim Vest: Mr Price
