Curvy Girl on the Run

We have only a couple more days left in May and I still cannot believe how quickly this month has flown by! I have been extremely busy these last few weeks primarily with work, but also in my personal life.   I find that I need to stop and think and live in the now because before you know it, you will be looking back and time will have flown by! Time is one thing that does not stop! Anyways, enough of that! I first rolled out the style challenge last week on Friday on Instagram.   I received a lot of requests from people asking for a June challenge since they enjoyed the May one so much. I am flattered that people have been doing the challenge and have been loving it! My goal is to create something that we can show our own personal style while having fun and wearing our clothes from our closet. I also love to build up and encourage other by showcasing a look from each day on the blog. More on that later… I also am participating in no shopping for the summer (with...

I cannot believe the first week of May is already over! I am having such a fun time with everyone who is participating in this month’s challenge. I look at the pictures every day and try to find one that I want to post along with mine.   Confession: I would post them all but it’s just not possible! I love all of the effort that so many people are putting into this challenge and it just makes every day more fun to get dressed than the last! I decided I will recap one week at a time.   I will be choosing one look that stood out to me and I will feature it with mine for each day.

I also cannot see your pictures that you post if you are private-so, if you would like all of us to see the awesome outfits you come up with, you will have to have a public profile. I just want to make sur...

I thought I would put both months together this time since the outcome was pretty much the same... Well folks, this whole post could be summed up in two words: I failed. However, I choose not to see it as a failure but as an opportunity to do better next time. I'll explain. And yes, by the way, I will admit I have been putting off posting this too...which is why I made it into a two month recap really... I did well in March and, in fact, even returned items that I purchased before. But then, I took a trip to the mall mid-month and decided to really look at some new spring and summer items for myself. I sold a lot of my stuff last year on Poshmark for spring and summer so I decided to take advantage of the many sales that happen this time of the year.  I didn't stay on track for buying only items on my list. In fact, I decided to get a little more creative and look for some things that were unique but still would match with other items in my closet so I could wear th...
