Curves Around the World: Casino Night



 

Hey, guys!!!

 

This weeks theme for Curves Around the World is "Night At the Casino".

 

I have gone to a Casino before but is not at all my hangout place.

I don't like casino's due to the gambling taking place there. I feel like they are just bad institutions tricking people to lose their money for their benefit. They are psychologically disastrous especially to those addicted and can kill such individuals and/or  wreck their lives or families.

 

Moreover, casinos promote a lot of drug use and prostitution. Call me boring and/or paranoid, I HATE CASINO's with PASSION :)

I am sorry but they really can be unethical!!!

 

 When I went to the casino people were dressed to the nines and I also dressed up not knowing what to expect but if id go again in future (what for? I really don't know) id ensure I am dressed comfortably and not formal at all - just a comfy clean look.
In that case, I think this outfit would be suitable. Going to the casino doesn't qualify for any of my glam outfits. Id rather save them for ice skating, lol :) 

So, this is my Casino Night Look - qualified??? Definately qualifies :)

Stolen moment in All Star Shoe Sneakers

A friend took me to a Daks Store (they specialise in designer shoes and apparel - casual and smart) and they are located in Matatiele and Kokstad. Whilst walking around their shop I came across an AllStar range and instantly fell in love  with navy AllStar shoe 5 eyelets.

 

It just made sense for me to buy these shoes because I have been postponing buying them because I already own two hightop AllStar. Truth is that, having an AllStar shoe additional to hitops really makes a differnce.

 

What made me go home with this pair is that Daks prices are fairly cheap compared to other retailers. At first, I kind of questioned this discount but ended up buying because of their good reputation. Normally, a pair would cost R500 and their price was R380. So, I saved me some R120...

 

On this day, at work we had visitors coming from head office to inspect the institution infrastructure. Because thats one of my key performance areas: to inspect and recommend what to be done. I had to join the team of inspectors. This was just another day out of the office doing what I love most but the sun was too damn hot. Good thing that I applied my moisturiser with 30spf protection. Thought id give my face a break and that is why I have no makeup on. I nearly missed out on taking pictures of this outfit as the day was too long with many activities to cover. Am happy I have a decent and understnding colleague to take pictures of me. She really came through on this day .. Thank you Ntembie :)

  

Back to the AllStars sneakers: Great buy right? Comfy too! I planned wearing these shoes with my dresses and skirts. How else can I wear these sneakers?

AllStar Shoe: Daks, Denim Shirt:Mr Price, Belt bought in 2010 here at Mr Price, Skirt: was thrifted from Matatiele street pile (its one of my R2 buys), Bag: Fossil Store

 

No makeup but face moisturised... Lips are dry and about to crack, lol. These pics were taken after 6pm in the evening when everyone was dog tired after a long working day. 

 

 

Cheers to all of you lovely Thick and Fabulous ladies.

Until next time :)

Tappin' in the Mens World (Red Bow Tie)

Thandie Gxono inspired this look ... She was excitedly marketing how "MensWear" spice up our feminine soft look outfits. At first, I had reservations as I never really pictured myself trying any of mens accesories. She went as far as convincing me to buy Mens Tie, Scarve and a Suspender Belt.

 

Immediately after we were out of Markhams store I thought my money went to waste .... I had fear, of whether or not I would be able to pull these looks of or not. When I arrived at home many ideas came to mind and I decided to wear the red velvet tie the following morning morning.

 

So, this is how I interpreted the menswear theme. I should say, i really felt like an Institutional Manager (my boss), hahahahaha. I was and still pleased with the results :)
