Curvy Girl on the Run

Well we have made it to September! It’s my birthday month and my son’s birthday month so we will definitely be celebrating around here! I’m certainly not wishing the time away but this year has been a doozy!  First things first this week is I’ll share a look with you from  Cato Fashions  but also my visit to  Fireside Pies  last week! These pictures were taken by my friend Sarah and if you’re in the DFW make sure to check out  Sarah Kay Photography  for all of your photography needs!  Dress and shoes are both from  Cato  but I got them in store on sale and I don’t see them online!  I shared on my Instagram about  Fireside Pies  but I’ll write about it here too! If you’re in this area, you must try them! I love the artisan bake of the pizzas and the bruschetta was so amazing! I got the Texas Bibb Salad as well and it was so delicious. We also got two drinks, the Prickly Pear Margarita and the Red Sangria, and finished it of...

Hi Friends! Happy Wednesday! We’ve made it halfway through this week! Yesterday I kept thinking it was Wednesday all day and I was glad when I talked to a friend of mine that she was equally as confused as to how it was only Tuesday!  Anyways, this last week was a doozy! I got some news that one of my best friends’ mother had passed away. It’s always hard to hear of these things and no doubt it brings back memories of losing my own mother. It was also quite hot here and I was getting some headaches and just not feeling quite like myself! I forced myself to get up and around on Sunday and take a little visit to Adriatica Village to explore and take some pics. You can read my last blog post here and see all about it!  I wore a dress that I got from  Eloquii Unlimited  which is a new rental service that  Eloquii  is doing. I love the idea of renting some pieces that perhaps you couldn’t afford to buy otherwise. I love Eloquii clothing so I tried out the servic...

Hey friends! I can’t believe this is the third post I’ve written this week! I just have a lot of stuff I want to share!  This past Sunday I met up with a friend who I haven’t seen in a long time. We picked up carry out and sat out in lawn chairs and talked the afternoon away. It was so nice to catch up but it was nice just to see another person and have a conversation!  I wore this fun  maxi dress  from J Crew to meet my friend. I posted this a couple of weeks ago on my Instagram as an item I would buy- it was a steal! But it also is just a fun dress and fits perfectly!  I added some colorful accessories like a clutch, earrings and bracelets and just some casual shoes. I love all of the bright colors! I could also add a tennis shoes and a crossbody and it would be a different look. This dress would also be fun with a denim jacket. So many options!  You can shop the dress  here   You can shop the shoes  here You can shop the earrings  her...

Another week in quarantine...how’s everyone holding up? I’ve been seeing all kinds of things that people are doing to be creative during this time. Remember though, it’s not a competition to see who gets the most done. This is a time that you should rest and take care of yourself and try to stay safe and well!  I thought I’d share first this week about  Century 21 Department Stores  carrying plus sizes now! I ordered a couple of Rachel Roy dresses that I love so much! They have other brand names like Eloquii which I love as well! I ordered both dresses, this handbag and earrings that I’m wearing in both looks! Which one is your favorite?  You can shop the dress  here   You can shop the dress  here   You can shop the earrings  here   Handbag is sold out  I can’t wait for it to get warmer so I can wear these dresses! You should seriously check out  Century 21  for all kinds of super good deals!  Now how about any good s...

It’s Hump-Daaay! Happy Wednesday friends! I wanted to start this post off with a gorgeous hello, yellow! look from  LuvMeMore . I’ve been working with this brand for a while now and I am loving all they do! It’s a great combo of flowy and flirty styles like maxi skirts, wide leg pants and crop tops. I’ve gotten fun dresses and tops and all sorts of things from them but this yellow look has to be one of my faves!  I paired this  Off The Shoulder Valerie two piece look  with some sandals and wore turquoise earrings and some fun bracelets. I love the minimal look! My son was taking these pics and we were trying to get just the right look and I think we accomplished it!  Check out these pics:  I also teased you on Instagram and said I was going to do something I hadn’t done before. Well I did it. It wasn’t  a huge deal but I slid into a guy’s DMs that I’ve been kind of admiring from afar. I don’t know that anything will even come of it but I was proud...
