Curvy Girl on the Run

Today's post is exciting because I am collaborating with three other ladies and talking about a fun Spring trend- the white shirt. I've teamed up with Janeane from Designing From My Close t, Amy from Full Figured and Fashionable  and Nina from  Curvy Mod . The white shirt is basic but combined with other articles of clothing and accessories, it's anything but basic! I love the way that all of us took this one wardrobe staple and made it into a totally different look!   Janeane wore hers with some cropped pants and lace up sandals and a clutch. Her look is comfortable and casual yet easily a dressed up look for day or night.  Amy wore hers with a cardigan and skirt. This is another look that could be worn for work or play. I love the coral and the pop of green in the necklace!  Nina's look is super cute with the bow tie and the patterned pants. Her look is another great example of how a white shirt doesn't necessarily mean business- it'...

The second week of March was a home run fashion-wise for me. I had a lot of fun getting dressed and sharing all of these looks with you all! It was getting a little warmer, snow was starting to melt and Spring was on the way!  Here's the scoop on these looks:  Monday, March 9- I had something else totally planned to wear on this day but I ended up going into an office for work and wanted to wear something more office-appropriate. This look was fun and was just fine for me to work by myself...

This week brought us a holiday (President's Day) which was much needed and I enjoyed a couple of nights out with friends and got my hair done. Still cold outside though so still wearing a lot of layers.  Here are my looks for the week: Monday, Feb 16- This was my day off of work so I played with my hair and makeup and wore a cozy sweater and shirt combo!  Sweater- Loft (old) Shirt- Joe Fresh (old) Tuesday, Feb 17- This combo is an oldie but goodie.

Hard to believe that Sunday will be February already! This month has brought colder temps, cloudy and sunny days and even snow. Mother Nature has a sense of humor at times and has been somewhat bipolar in her temperature offerings. I also participated in a fun style challenge called "Calling All Preps" and  was excited to mix and match some things up in my closet.  Here goes the recap: Saturday, Jan 17- no outfit post but I had to show off these pretties for Red Shoes Day!  Shoes- Just Fab (recent) Sunday, Jan 18- This outfit was recapped in last week's Sunday Style post. Check it out for all of the details!  Monday, Jan 19- No work for me since it was a bank holiday but later in the day, we went out for dinner so I put on the basic blogger outfit and headed out to get some Mexican food! This was the first day of the style challenge which was Vests and Plaid.  Scarf- Zara (old) Vest- J Crew Factory (old) Sweatshirt- Ta...
