Curvy Girl on the Run

Well, it happened again! Another week flew by! This style challenge has been so much fun! I know I made it up but I am allowed to say that it's been fun, right? I have enjoyed seeing everyone's pictures on Instagram and have loved connecting with new people!  Day 8- My Favorite Things- I always say my favorite things aren't things- but if I had to choose some things that I love to wear and use, this picture is a good example! I love wearing dresses (especially with pockets), statement necklaces, leopard print, bows on toes- you get the idea!  I chose to feature my pal Keila @mommyinmilwaukee on this day for a couple of reasons- first of all, she is one of the most adorable expectant mothers I have ever seen! Secondly, how could I not pick her since we match?  Day 9- Silver Linings- every cloud has a silver lining- we've ll heard this before so why not show off our silver? I'm doing this in the form of both shoes and accessories and wearing Old ...

Happy Sunday! I dug deep into the closet for this dress today! I remember buying this wrap dress at a Banana Republic Factory Store at the outlets near Seattle. I was out there working a few years ago and happened upon this dress and loved it!  I think it is the bold floral pattern, the yellow color and the silkiness of the dress that drew me to it. I also love a wrap dress as it accentuates the waist and is fairly forgiving on all body types. I think it's a great dress to wear for today's Style Me April challenge which is Flirty Florals.  I decided to wear my Nine West nude bow heels and pair them with a straw clutch, also from Banana Republic. I also went for a more fun look with my jewelry and am sort of mixing and matching colors and a "wooden" look. I remember seeing on What Not to Wear that Stacy and Clinton said "it doesn't have to match, it just has to go". I often base my clothing and accessories on this motto.  Here are some pics of...

Happy Easter everyone! I hope that you all are enjoying your day with your family and friends!  I thought I would do a quick post for Sunday Style wearing this great pink dress from Banana Republic. There are four things that I love in a dress and this has all of them! A super flattering fit and flare style, an exposed zipper, the color pink and a great price!  I found this dress on sale with an extra percentage on top of that back in the middle of March. Sometimes being in the right place at the right time pays off when it comes to sales!  With this dress I am pairing the gorgeous floral clutch that I found at Francesca's and some nude bow heels from Nine West via Marshalls. I like the simple look with a little fun thrown in with the vibrant colors in the clutch. I am also keeping the dress and shoes neutral and wearing some colorful jewelry with it. I love the long line of a neutral leg and shoe which actually makes me appear taller and slimmer.  He...
