Abstract Patterns & Plaid and Boots: Classy Confident Curves Feature of the Day

Hey Ladies!!!

Hope all is well with you all! I wanted to stop by again this week to bring another feature. Very seldom am I able to do a double feature in a week. So I was happy to have another day to bring to you my version of plus size fashion. Today was all about abstract patterns. Abstract patterns are known not to depict a person, place, or thing. It is a composition of all types of colors and shapes that come together to make an amazing piece of clothing or art however you look at it. I use to see it just in the art form hanging on walls but, I am seeing it in my clothing and I am deeply in love with it. Just because its Fall doesn't mean I can't keep it bright. Details are below. Also this is a triple feature of another look introducing Plaid and Combat boots. Look below for details.
Top: Forever 21, Skirt (Similar) Forever 21, Shoes: GoJane, Necklace: Forever 21/Versona Accessories, Coat: Old Navy, Pants: Ross
The second feature introduces plaid paired with combat boots. Plaid has become a strong go to piece in fashion. Plaid can just about go with anything. I usually will pair mine with another print. Of course the combat boots just bring out the plaid even more in my opinion. I advised someone who was purchasing the plaid skirt to pair with a polka dotted or leopard print top!!! Yes ma'am you would be surprised how good mixed prints would look incorporating plaid or Tartan. Its whatever you want to call it. Lol! Hope enjoy the features Ladies!
Top: Target, Skirt: Forever 21, Sweater: Wal-Mart, Boots: Shoe Show, Plaid Shirt: Forever 21, Dress: Forever 21, Necklace: F21, Chain Earrings: Aldo

UN-Bothered

Hey Ladies!!!

I hope everyone is doing well. Today's blog is featuring two pieces that I have become in love with. When I purchased these items I had no thought to wear them together. However, it turned out to be an awesome look might I add. Being the size I am and doing this blog thing along with the people I have met over social media I become UN-BOTHERED! Best believe its in a great way. I am UN-bothered by caring what anyone has to say about pretty much anything at this point. We all know people have an opinion about EVERYTHING. If they won't hold their tongue then why should I care if anyone likes me for me and how I roll. I'm just UN-bothered! I wear shiny clothing, crop tops, and body suits (which brings attention)...I'm UN-bothered! I wear 2 piece swimwear during the Summer...I'm UN-bothered! I show belly...I'm UN-bothered! I wear bight colors because I'm UN-bothered! I will wear bold prints why? I'm UN-bothered. Anything they say a plus size woman should not wear I will make sure its done...I stay UN-bothered! I will remain UN-bothered! Its a good feeling because you are not living up to anyone standard but your own. I hope those women who are still in their shells to come on out and just be UN-bothered because you can be careful all your life and still be talked about and pointed at! You know my motto! Flaunt your feathers honey! This is what Classy Confident Curves is all about! Now on to the feature.

I Need Love: Featuring Women with Classy Confident Curves


Hey Ladies!!!


When I'm alone in my room sometimes I stare at the wall
and in the back of my mind I hear my conscious call
Telling me I need a man who's as sweet as a dove
for the first time in my life, I see I need love.

And I've come to realize that I need true love
And if you wanna give it to me boy make yourself seen, I'll be waiting! I LOVE you

I hope everyone is doing well! Today's outfit inspiration is brought to you by the word LOVE. Love is such a beautiful thing/feeling. Everyone deserves to be loved by another. As a woman, love is such an important part of our lives and we want the best there is out here. We know that true Love comes from when we first understand what Love is. God is Love and Love is God. When we acknowledge what love is then we can love ourselves to the fullest. Lastly, waiting for the man that God has for us to show us love...hmmm it feels good just to talk about it. So anyway lets talk about this outfit. I was feeling rather loved in this crop top sweatshirt and midi skirt.

One Jumpsuit: Three Ways

Hello Ladies!!!

I hope all is well with everyone. I wanted to try something different with my clothing this go round. I have seen this idea from the lovely Chastity Garner-Valentine wearing one piece and styling it three different ways. I purchased my second of all time jumpsuits from ASOS and let me tell you I am in LOVE! I have two lessons to teach in this blog. Lesson #1 is to never under estimate your own clothing. This is the main reason for the 3 in 1 styling of this hunter green jumpsuit. I was able to dress this jumpsuit for a party, date night, and church/work look. I shopped for this jumpsuit after looking at another beautiful fashion blogger on Instagram by the name of IG: name Curvaceouslybee she wore a beautiful chartreuse color jumpsuit also purchased from ASOS. So I thought I would give it a try and I love that I was able to dress this jumpsuit in a few different ways.
Jumpsuit: ASOS, Shoes: 1 JustFab 2 Target, Leather Jacket: Burlington Coat Factory, Peplum Top: Forever 21, Handbag: Kenneth Cole, Earrings: 1/2: Ashley Stewart and 3 Aldo, Belt: 1. Target 2. eBay.
Lesson #2 looking at me in this jumpsuit you would have thought this was actually my size. Can you guess what size I'm wearing? No, ok this jumpsuit is a size US 14! The lesson is to never under estimate your body and the size clothing you pick out. Research your materials and know what works for you. Just because its not your size does not necessarily mean it will not fit. Also know where you purchase your clothing from. Meaning ASOS sizes typically run bigger so you can usually go down a size or two or in my case three sizes down. YAY!! I hope this helps you pick out pieces that can be worn many ways and never limit what size you shop. Until next time Be Good, Be Fly and Shake a Tail Feather. xoxoxo
