Curvy Girl on the Run

Hi friends! If you’re new here, WhatUp Wednesday posts are the place to come to see what’s going on, where to go, what to do or what to see, you know all that jazz!  I also try to recap my looks from the previous week that were posted to Instagram and to the Facebook page. I link everything on here as much as I can and you can also find it on my LikeToKnowIt page if you use that.  Be sure to click on the Bloglovin’ button on the side and you’ll get the newest post straight to your inbox!  I’ll start by talking about my favorite things I did this past week. I went to the  Frederik Meijer Gardens and Sculpture Park  to see the butterflies on the first day and The Womb exhibit on the last day. Both were amazing! I’d highly recommend this place if you’ve never been or even if you have! It’s one of my favorite places to go. It’s got things to do indoor and outdoor once the weather warms up.  The butterfly exhibit is indoors in a humid greenhouse and it’s so spec...

Happy Sunday, friends! It’s hard to believe that today is already March 1st! I saw a meme that said something about how January had 585 days and February flew by so fast! That’s exactly how it feels for me since I really hate the cold weather! Today was actually in the 50’s though and the sun was shining bright. I’m so ready for spring!  One of the landmarks in Grand Rapids is the Blue Bridge. The Blue Bridge used to be a railroad bridge and is now used as a pedestrian bridge. It was built in 1892 and stretches over the Grand River. It is iconic to the city and also is one of the longest truss bridges in Michigan.   Now there’s nothing like wearing blue when you are by the Blue Bridge! I got this  dress  from  My Sister’s Closet Boutique  and I love it! It’s a small little blue floral pattern but if there’s anything you know about me, you know I also love a great animal print! I decided to add some depth to this look with the leopard belt and hat. I added b...

Hi friends! Wow! It’s been since the beginning of the month since I did one of these posts! I try to stay up on these but I’ll tell you, life just gets busy and sometimes I don’t have the time.  Okay well then enough of the excuses...let’s get right into it! Today’s look is from a new to me online boutique called  My Sister’s Closet Boutique ! They have both straight sizes and plus sizes and some of the cutest items I’ve seen! I’m wearing the dress below in navy and white polka dots with these boots that are from  Jessica London . Can I just say how fabulous navy boots are??)  Anyways, this dress is so fun with the ruffled tulip hem and the neck tie. It’s perfect for wearing out and dressing up with heels or to work with boots!  I also got two other dresses that I tried on last week in my stories on Instagram. One looks like it’s not available any longer but the other I will show you those below so you can shop that one with me as well if you’d like!...
