Curvy Girl on the Run

Somebody told me today that I looked happy. That’s stuck with me all day. Someone else asked me why I was so dressed up to do customers’ grocery shopping. I responded that I take pride in my work and want to look nice when I arrive with their stuff.  This little blue floral dress really has done it all for me today. I traded the block heels for some flats while I shopped. I am in love with this blue color and the florals are what dreams are made of. I added some simple colorful accessories in true Sandae fashion. Pink tassel earrings and some tassel bracelets that I made years ago. I liked the equally as colorful look in the accessories as in the dress. Add some earth tones back into the mix with the sandals and bag and viola it’s a look!  Below are some pictures of this gorgeous  dress . The  dress  is from one of my favorite partners,  Navabi , and the brand is another one that I love,  Yoek Fashion .  I hope you all are as happy as I am to...

I love pattern mixing! If you have been following me for any length of time, you already know this. It is so simple and adds so much interest to your outfit! Start with the same color or color family and then match a pattern (or two!). Probably one of my most favorite and easiest combos is stripes and florals. Add a striped top to a floral skirt and you are done! But enough about that...today's pattern mixing is a bold floral print and windowpane heels. I am loving this floral faux wrap  dress from Avenue ! It is so easy to throw on and mix and match accessories and footwear. I chose this dress with these heels to wear to work today. You need some fabulousness walking into a Monday! Thanks for reading and following along with me! Hope you had a wonderful Monday! Sandae P. S. Check out the pics of this dress!

I am loving the warmer temps lately and it's evident that spring is on the way! With the allergies and rains, comes the flowers and trees and birds chirping and longer days. Oh don't get me started! Anyways, it's awesome to have lovely dresses to wear when the temps get warmer. I like the flowy style dresses that don't stick to your skin and get you all sweaty. You know what I'm talking about, ladies!  Knitted Belle Boutique  has so  many amazing looks to choose from!  So many cute dresses! Eek! I have two styles that I'm showing you all today. By the way, make sure to use the code CURVYGIRL25 for 25% off new arrivals!  This is the Border print off the shoulder dress . This is a beautiful white dress that can be worn like this or off the shoulder. I paired it with some fun sandals and a hat. It was incredibly windy on this day and hard to keep my hat from flying away!  Dress- Knitted Belle Boutique (online recent) Sandals- Target...

This past week I posted outfits from a new boutique that I discovered called Shopsugarsands . I love finding new places to shop and share with all of you! I thought I'd do a roundup of the different looks from this past week. I have been showing looks from their Curvy section and so few I think they are so on point!  First up is this gorgeous floral open back dress . I love everything about this dress from the colors to the fabric to the pompom detailing- and the open back! So pretty!  Next is the long hooded cardigan .  I didn't realize it until I looked closer that there are beautiful fall colors in this cardigan! There is tan and olives running through it and it will match so many things!  The ruffled blue floral top  is next. I paired it with jeans and boots but you could also dress it up for work with a pair of dress pants or a skirt.  Lastly is this leopard print sheer blouse . The back is awesome too! I belted i...

Seriously, it's amazing. Like, totes amaze. I am loving the Amelia dress from Lularoe! You all know that my goal is to help women everywhere look and feel fabulous and this dress is seriously good for every body shape! Lularoe is awesome in a lot of ways but one of them that I love is that each piece of clothing is only available in a limited number of prints and patterns. It is possible to have a dress that no one else has like it (well, anyone that you know anyways...) This Amelia is perfect to be dressed up or down. I wore it with heels one day and then changed it up another day for teaching at school and layered a denim jacket over it and wore some sparkly tennis shoes. The versatility is amazing! Oh, and did I mention it has pockets?! I thought I would share a few pics of this dress both ways- which way do you like better? Dressy   Casual Thanks so much to my friend Leigh  for this amazing Amelia! She is sharing the love and you can w...

"Nothing can stop me, I'm all the way up, I'm all the way up..." I like this song by Fat Joe and Remy Ma minus a few of the lyrics...but I digress.  It exudes confidence and the amount of wealth that they have. It paints a picture that they have everything and more(!) that they need in life. They're all the way up! While I love the confidence that this song portrays, the reality is that what is up must come down. But on the flip side, if you're down, it's only going to get better. You can only go up. I love the verse in Psalm 23:4 that says "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me."  David is in the valley. He is in the depths of despair. He is crying out but David realizes that things will get better and that he will be taken care of.  Maybe someone needs this reminder as much as I do. I wanted to share my thoughts with you all. It will get ...

Sweet sweet fantasy baby when I close by eyes you come and you take me... go ahead and sing the Mariah Carey song-you know you want to! When I came up with the title to this blog post, that was all I kept thinking about. Seriously though, this dress is simply a fantasy. I love everything about it! The shape of it and the length of it and the way it is so long and flowy! The floral pattern on the dress makes it so feminine yet gives off a sexy and romantic vibe.  I am thrilled to be working with Nissy's Closet Tales ! This is an online boutique for curvy girls like myself and offers us the opportunity to purchase affordable, trendy and uniquely gorgeous pieces. There is so much to choose from and I'll be showing some other looks from here as well in the near future!
