The Hostess Slay with GS Love

Hey curvies!!!

I know you all are just about ready for New Year's Eve, but here is one look that would spark your interest. I remember going to parties and see the hostess partially dress and running around frantically. So this look is for the hostess with the mostess.

I knew I wanted to wear a floor length gown with a lot of sparkle. Instead of pretending I would wear this dress with heels I decided to keep it real and pair some lace-up flats with this dress. I also added a denim jacket for a more casual look. Everything turned out great!

Style Notes: This dress is a 3x and is super stretchy. The jacket is a size 16 and is true to size. The flats are a size 10 and are wide feet friendly.

Bee & Pep Take On Fall Trends: Velvet

Hey curvies!!!

I am super excited to be collaborating with my virtual big sis Pepper of Pretty Plus Pep. We have collaborated a few times and each time we have tackled new trends. This time is no different, we are bringing you all five Fall/Winter Trends. Yes, FIVE!!! Last up is Velvet. 

Velvet is one of those trends I was nervous about trying. I actually bought a velvet bodycon but it was super sexy. On the other hand, I did not want to look super "granny." Luckily, this dress is awesome!!! I love that it featured a faux wrap detail, the deep neckline is everything but granny and not over sexy. I wanted to keep this look super simple so added my over the knee boots and my DIY choker.

Style Notes: I did size up in this to a 3x and the sleeves are still a bit tight. My boots are wide calf and wide feet friendly.

Date Night: Sheer Perfection

Hey curvies!!!

I love trying new brands and Daya by Zendaya was an awesome choice. I really like bodycons and this sheer bodycon seemed like the obvious choice. It is fabulous!!! The material is stretchy and breathable. The length is perfect as well becuase it actually stopped passed my calf but I ruched it a little. 

This dress was super easy to style. I actually added a forest green bodycon under this dress to make the tan pop. My tan booties were perfect to complete this outfit.

Style Notes: This dress is a size XXL. I a usually a 2x so this dress is true to size. The bodycon underneath is a size 2x. My booties are a size 11, I sized up because they are narrow.

Hey curvies!!!

I am super excited to be collaborating with my virtual big sis Pepper of Pretty Plus Pep. We have collaborated a few times and each time we have tackled new trends. This time is no different, we are bringing you all five Fall/Winter Trends. Yes, FIVE!!! Fourth up is Plaid. 

Pep and I are no strangers to plaid. We did a full collaboration on plaid last year. So this year we had to add plaid in our Fall Trends series. I have had this shirt for over a year and had to pull it out to wear with my new skirt. My studded purse was perfect for this black and gold outfit.

Style Notes: My shirt is an XXL, the fit is great and my buttons lay flat even tucked in. My skirt is a size 18/20, please be mindful that the underskirt is kinda short. My booties are a size 11, I sized up because they are narrow.

Fall Color Blocking with Faith

Hey curvies!!!

I am so happy to be team up with Faith of Faithfully Yours Blog. You guys I love Faith's style. Her ability to dress up and dress down is amazing. She isn't too far from me here in Memphis so I can't wait for another collab. 

I am super excited to be color blocking using Fall colors and I am super excited this ENTIRE outfit was under $50. I can honestly say I buy most of my clothes on sale and if it's trendy I try not to break the bank.

This is an outfit everyone needs. I feel like this outfit is date night approved, with TIGHTS it's church approved and work house approved. The poncho covers the assets and the belt highlights my waist as well as creating a "cape" silhouette. 

Again, this outfit is under $50!!! The camel colored poncho (here) was only $12.90. My midi length rust skirt was only $11.90 this one is similar (here) at only $16. I completed this look with a white cami for only $3.90 here, a statement from my closet, and some super cute booties that were on sale here for only $19.35!!!! This outfit was only $48.05!!!

Style Notes: This skirt is true to size at a 3x, juniors plus. The cami is a 1x with great stretch. The poncho is one size fit all. The booties are a size 11, I sized up because they are narrow.

Bee & Pep Take On Fall Trends: Lace

Hey curvies!!!!

I am super excited to be collaborating with my virtual big sis Pepper of Pretty Plus Pep. We have collaborated a few times and each time we have tackled new trends. This time is no different, we are bringing you all five Fall/Winter Trends. Yes, FIVE!!! Third up is Lace.

I have always been a lover of lace. I always felt like was synonymous with sexy. I bought a lace dress that didn't come past my hips and at the same time Pep released a post and a skirt in my closet was on list. Let's just say that post saved me time and money. When I bought this skirt it was noted to be Tulle but after looking at the underskirt peep through the polka dots I got a lace feel.

Style Notes: This skirt has no stretch and I sized up to an 18. This skirt is a little short in the back so be mindful. The turtleneck has a lot of stretch and I am wearing an XL. The booties are super narrow and I sized up to an 11.

Skirting Around Town

Hey curvies!!!

I am a super girly girl! I love wearing skirts because they're super chic! Not to mention skirts are super easy to dress up or down! 

Let's get into this skirt!!! I remember seeing Society+ on Instagram and falling for them. I would marvel over how cute their skirts were and how important body diversity was to them when it came to their models. They were having a really good sale and I had to give them a try! This midi skirt is everything! I am a lover of polka dots and I immediately thought to pair this skirt with my new lace up heels, they're low and work place friendly. I completed this look with my new red cardigan and gold tassel necklace. .

Style Notes: The polka dot skirt is a 14/16, this skirt is true to size. The cardigan is super light weight and true to size in a 2x. I have one wide foot, so I sized up to an 11 in the shoes and they're perfect.

Bee & Pep Take On Fall Trends: Off The Shoulders

Hey curvies!!!

I am super excited to be collaborating with my virtual big sis Pepper of Pretty Plus Pep. We have collaborated a few times and each time we have tackled new trends. This time is no different, we are bringing you all five Fall/Winter Trends. Yes, FIVE!!! Second up is Off The Shoulders. 

I have never really been a shoulder shower and this trend challeged me to wear something different. I must admit I was hesitant about going "full shoulder" so I opted for a cold shoulder instead. Now, I am a bodycon wearer so this dress was super cute! Cold shoulders and a fitted dress, love!!! This outfit was super easy because I made the dress the focal point. I added a maxi vest and basic black booties.

Style Notes: This dress is true to size in a 2x, this dress is a ribbed material and not too clingy. The maxi vest is sized up in a 3x and I love the fit. The booties are a bit narrow and I sized up to an 11, that was a super smart move!

Denim Days: The Skinny Jean

Hey curvies!!!

This is the third installment of a four part series "Denim Days." This series will showcase various ways denim can be incorporated into the everyday woman's wardrobe. 

This series really challenged to wear denim jeans, because I am a lover dresses and skirts. I love the thought of wearing a plain white tee and jeans. This outfit is really a dream come true and this jeans are magical! The jeans are super soft and stands true to their "legging" description. I couldn't wait to wear my new trench coat and sling back booties to complete my this look.

Style Notes: These jeggings are true to size in a size 22 and super comfy. This trench is true to size, but I sized up to a 3XL because I was unsure about sizing. The booties are true to size in a 10.
