ABSTRACT WITH COLORFUL SOPHISTICATION

 

 

Ladies, I just wanted to debunk the myth that we should not wear color.  We can find clothing in the right shapes that will make us look just as pretty as any other women.  Color can bring out our beautiful playful nature.  I am a big fan of colorful clothing and some people feel that we should only wear black and that is not so. 

 

Black clothing can sometimes make us look dowdy and plain old boring.  This is how I feel about it.

When I am shopping I like to look for colors that will enhance my complexion.  Someone asked me why I wear so many colors and I turned right around and asked them why they don't and they said; colors will make you look bigger and  (fat women)  should not be seen in them.

 

I love to create my own trends in regard to dressing my plus size body.  I think that I look pretty in color and I will not dim my light for anyone and neither should you.

 

My problem areas are my arms and my stomach, but, you can learn how to camouflage these areas.

 

As you can see, all these ladies in these pictures look absolutely terrific and I would wear any one of these outfits.

 

The main thing that we should remember is dressing for our shape and body type.  If the outfit, you wear is fitting you poorly, then you should pick another one that is flattering, but you can wear any color you want.

 

 

 

WE DON'T HAVE TO PAY DEPARTMENT STORE PRICES TO ACHIEVE THIS LOOK LADIES

BOHO CHIC

 

                A nice plain look that we can achieve on a budget.


I went to two very expensive stores and I saw these looks and I looked at the price tag and I was blown away at just how high the price was.

My Daughter and I both said at the same time" They must be kidding, we can get this look at the thrift store"
The first look is a style that is very popular in New York City and I have seen it in Chelsea.
The second look is a very nice sweater and a skirt but it is very easy to achieve this whole look for under 15 dollars.

This is one of the reasons why I thrift is because you can look in magazines or go to department stores and see if you can imitate this look on a budget.

My staple in my wardrobe is black skirts and black pants because you can create some really nice looks by mixing and matching blouses or sweaters.

My Daughter likes boho chic and she has many outfits that looks like the first example and she paid no more than $10.00 for the whole entire look.  Now, that is what I call a bargain.

Real style can be achievable by just having a little imagination when shopping at thrift stores.

CHURCH RUMMAGE SALES

 

CHURCH RUMMAGE SALES

 

I love this part of the year when the tree's start to change and the air is so crisp and fresh, but what I love the most is the Church Rummage Sales.  I find that the Fall brings a lot of Churches that conduct these sales and they carry a lot of clothing, dishes, electronics, and other household items.

 You can get a nice amount of items for about $10 or $20 dollars and I am my happiest when they have the bag sales because you pay one price and you stuff that bag with as much stuff as you can get in there.  The only drawback is; most of these sales do not have dressing rooms, so you must bring a measuring tape, so you can buy your right size.

  If you are not sure about sizing; then it is best to just stick with their household items.

RAINBOW SHOPS END OF SUMMER SALES

 

             
                        RAINBOW SHOPS END OF SUMMER SALES


Hello Ladies: Rainbow Shops is having their end of summer sales and what that means to us is; Bargains!  This is the best time to stock up on clothing for next summer and it is also the best time to find items that are convertible to wear in the fall and winter.

 What I usually do is; buy tank tops and tee shirts to wear under a cardigan or a jacket.  I look for sandals to wear next year.

You can buy all those cute dresses for about $7.00 and don't forget; Rainbow Shops have an online shop with nice clothing and the shipping is very reasonable.  This is the perfect time to stock up.

Thrifting is soooooooooo easy

This is a collection of some of my thrifting video's, so you can see my thrifting skills in action.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thrifting was once looked upon, as an activity geared towards people who were homeless, hard on their luck and also thought of as being tacky.

 

 

 

 

Thrifting is my hobby and i just love to see what i am going to get during my hunt and people actually think that i pay a lot of money for my clothing.  You have to learn what materials and brands to get.

  If you are into designer clothing; the thriftstore is a great place to get them for pennies on the dollar.  You can find a large array of Dooney, Coach, Prada and etc.  I also like to shop on the clearance rack at stores such as; Macys, JCPenney, Sears and clothing from some discount stores.
