Cooler Than Me

I wish I could say that my content moves souls to change their lives or reach for the stars, or I am the most fashionable in the game, but that’s just not real. The truth is that I struggle every day to be accepted and find clothes that fit to put on my back. These curves…

Athleisure Chic

The perfect outfit is chic and comfortable. But, usually, we have to sacrifice comfort for style. So I was excited that with this skirt I found both. I typically don’t see pencil skirts in a comfy, sports luxe material like this heathered skirt. And it’s nice to have leisure wear in a structured cut. And, I typically…

Catching Rays

One of my favorite summer pastimes is laying out in the sun for hours. I may read a book, chop it up with the girls or listen to some music. Sometimes, I even fall asleep, but I don’t recommend that.  If you live in the midwest, like me, the weather isn’t quite hot enough to…

Flowers for Muva

If your mother is anything like mine, she reads your outfits like the Fashion Police. And, she won’t hesitate to let you know if the cleavage to leg ratio is tasteful or if you look fat or skanky in an outfit. Sometimes, these reads are hard to swallow, but I truly appreciate the honesty. So…

Lemonade Roundup

I usually don’t do posts like this, but it’s my blog and I’ll do what I wan’t. LOL! And, in the spirit of the heavy-hitting Lemonade from ‘Yonce, I wanted to do a roundup of my favorite quotes and memes from the album. But first… I wore this dress to my birthday brunch, a few…

How ’bout those apples?

Being an apple-shaped gal, I’m always looking for flattering pieces that flow away from the body or just skim my curves. So thankfully, the jumper-style draping on this dress sent to me by A’nie’s Accents hides all my problem areas from the VBO to the back fat. A lot of plus size influencers say that you should…

Tech Tuesday: I Cheated on My iPhone

Being #teamiPhone for so long, it’s hard to admit that the Galaxy S7  is actually pretty fashionable while making life easier. This phone was sent to me by Verizon as part of their blogger program. And, it came in handy when my iPhone croaked after I got caught in the rain. It turns out that the…

No Bra, No problem

I woke up this morning and realized that my two-year blogiversary was yesterday. This is so unlike me to overlook such a milestone, but that pretty much sums up my life right now – busy. Now, I  know we’re all busy, but lately I just feel a little at my wit’s end. I’m hanging in…

Black Sweat

Busy gals don’t always have time to make it to the gym, but the FitBit allows me to work on my fitness without feeling obligated to step foot in a gym. It counts my steps as it sits comfortably on my wrist, gamifying everything in life. Going to the mall is a new adventure these days. Now,…
