Curves Around the World: Week 13 - Rock Chic

Hello, Hello.... Ladies!!!

 

Its that time of the week for the Curves Around the World themed outfit posts. Yes, this weeks theme is Rock Chic!!! I am sure when you hear Rock Chic - what comes to mind immediately is Leather, Chains, spikes, dark eyed makeup, Dr Martens, studs etc!!! All the things I mentioned toughen up the outfit and gives it that edge that makes Rock Chic, ROCKS :)

 

I have a couple of Leather pieces, Doctors Martens and surely can darken my eye makeup, lol but that's kinda expected right? What triggered my thinking to be on that wave length is coming across Rihanna on some blog I visited where they focussed more on her converse hi top sneakers and when looking at her all I could see was a simple take on Rock Chic trend. With just those two pieces of clothing (dress and sneakers) and her red lip - she was effortlessly on point with this ROCK CHIC trend.

 

This picture kinda gave me an idea of items I should use to create this look. At first I wanted to recreate this entire look as I have similar items but opted to use a black dress instead of Rihanna's white one because my focal item was my recently bought Marimekko Converse Sneaks which make a better contrast with this black dress compared to a white one. A maxi dress was my order of the day: so, wearing only this maxi dress with hi tops would have not given me the effect I was looking for - adding up my gold studded denim vest made sense on many levels to take me Rock Chic land, if you know what I mean :)

 

I sprinkled some gold accessories (watch and bangles),  added red lip and my big Green Statement Earings to perfect this outfit. You all can agree with me that "A lady is incomplete without a handbag"! Right?? Yeah ... Right!!! So my Lehza Vintage brown sling bag came to play to complete this outfit. I know what you all thinking - that I have been carrying this bag quite a lot on my recent posts but what can I do when this bag just blends perfectly with my everyday outfits??? LOL ... I really am happy to have bought this bag its really perfect for my day to day activities at work and other wise. It looks small but it definitely does carry my notebook and my ipad with my wallet, car keys and makeup just perfectly. I hope my justification carries a lot of weight and you are finally forgiving me for this offence :)

 

So, dig in, indulge and definitely give feedback on your thoughts about my Rock Chic look. I look cute and  sassy - I really did enjoy taking these pictures, I know you will enjoy looking at them too and also agree that my version still qualifies my look to be called ROCK CHIC... ROCK ON LADIES :)

Mohawked RockStar

Hey Fabulous Ladies!

Firstly, I would like to apologise for this post's pictures. They are not as clear as the pictures I normally put up on this blog page. This is due to the fact that, the pictures were taken using my blackberry phone instead of Sony Camera. I love these pictures regardless, thats why I thought I should share them with all of you.

I wokeup on this day in a happy mood and that contributed to my mohawk hairstyling for the day. It was a warm and windy day that required a simple and light outfit without much effort and my today's outfit post is exactly my translation of that. So, i have nailed this outfit :)

I mostly like short dresses than long dresses. Maxi dresses are something I mostly avoid due to my short height and too much bottom thickness. This usual results in me hating everything I see when I look in the mirror. What I usually see, is too much wideness around my hips, big bum, big stomach and dwarfism. That makes me panick and change outfits one after the other until i get something that marries the inner me. Then I continue with my activities.

Am sure you all asking why the fuss, I should not care and all but I 100% care. This is because I fear being loooked at and have people judge me. I am a confident person in general and that usually helps as I tackle every issue as they come..

So, on this day the negative energy was not strong enough to discourage me not to wear my Purple Maxi. I managed to see all the good things thus you see this post right now.

When a small devilish voice whisper in my head and try to convince me that I am not beautiful. In these situations, all I do is always to immediately look at my positive message topics (hung on my headbord) with words like Beautiful, Smart, Confident, Hardworker, Active, ChangeAgent, Strong etc. Moreover, I play a dance song and just sing, dance and jump around. Negative vibes immediately vanish and my day is back to normal happy mood. This usually works and dont need more therapeutic services.

Fabulous ladies, how do you cope with negativity when it crops up trying to spoil your mood any day??? Please share your opinions Thank you..

Until next time, Lovely Ladies...Cheers!!!!

BEAUTIFICATION DAY

The day me and my friends waited for, finally came "yipppeeeee". Its non other than the MAKEOVER DAY and Makeup Lesson from Mary Kay. I consider myself as a light makeup user. All I care about is skin care more than having a huge concentration on makeup as a result thats why I use and consider makeup as my toner and moisturiser... oh, also my Mascarra ofcoz not forgetting my compressed powder from M.A.C. COSMETICS... and also my lip gloss. So, today I hugely benefitted from the lecture and product testing as I discovered there's more to makeup than just that. Ive never used any foundation like the one thats liquid form, concealer, eye revitalizer etc etc.... Four of my friends came over for the session and we had a blast. It was a nice session and the Representative from Mary Kay was patient with us and fully explained everything she could and allowed us to try some products. So, I should say I kinda went wild as I said before I dont normally wear makeup and if I do I usually go nuetral. Today, was just a day for me to break the boundaries and see what colour makeup can do for me and my skin type. I was just the 80s icon "being bright all the way" without holding back..... My friends kinda gave me a hard time saying, that was too much but it was enough for me to show off as I immediately got inspired to head to the cinema later on. Ok, at the cinema we (me and my other friend) watched THE BACHELORETTE and it is a MUST WATCH MOVIE!!! Here is the movie trailer ... check it out Bachelorette Trailer. Below I have attached the makeup session's fun pictures. If you happen to have any questions email or write in the comments box ill reply back as soon as possible. Thank you MaryKay for today*** and all of you please Enjoy!!!! Cheers :)
