Just a little while ago I was ready to give up blogging, my normal photographer was not available anymore and I couldn’t afford the rates I was being quoted. However my friend Jeanee saved me and my blog by volunteering to take my pics. Since then we’ve worked together almost every Sunday. However, this Sunday Jeanee was in front of the camera and I was taking the pictures. | Jacket – Oldnavy | Dress – Target | Wedges – Target | Belt – H&M | Clutch – Aldo | Jeanee loves the color black, she wears it every day! No seriously, every day. I take that back, she does wear gray and other dark neutrals but mostly black. When she picked up this dress at Target last Saturday I was shocked! I think the fit and flare style is what won her over, which is her favorite. I was just…
| T-Shirt – The Limited | Skirt – Express | | Sandals – Just Fab | Purse – Target | | Necklace – F21 | Sunnies – Oldnavy | Stripes, check! Black and white, check! Full midi skirt, check! Three of my favorites in one outfit. This pink skirt is…
| Dress – Victoria Secrets | Purse – Just Fab | Necklace – HM | Bracelets – Various | I had an amazing Sunday brunch with my Virgo sister Jeanee this past weekend. I don’t know about anyone else but brunch with my friends is the perfect opportunity to be…
Timeless Pieces: Peplums & Pencil Skirts
| Peplum – F21 | Skirt – The Limited | Shoes – Jessica Simpson | Purse – Just Fab | Peplum’s and pencil skirts will always be a “no fail” outfit for me. If you’ve been reading my blog for awhile you seen several outfit posts featuring both. The pairing is simple and looks great not matter how many times I wear it. I don’t consider these pieces to be trends, they’ve become timeless staples in my closet.
Curves and Confidence was created five years ago because as a blog reader myself I didn’t see many style blogs that represented “in between” women. Not plus-sized and not your standard straight size. I have always been pear-shaped but I haven’t always embraced it. At one point I hated…
| Jacket – Oldnavy | Tunic – HM | Leggings – Express | Purse – TJ Maxx | Boots – Macys | I am not the biggest fan of wearing leggings as pants. I think if not worn correctly leggings can show off way more then you want if…
High Waist Midi Skirt + Cropped Sweater
| Skirt – HM | Sweater – F21 | Purse – Just Fab | Shoes – Call It Spring | Wearing any type of crop top at work is absolutely inappropriate. Of course there are always exceptions to the rule, right? In this case, the exception is a high waist midi skirt. No exposed skin makes this completely okay for the office. This option is also a great alternative if you are not comfortable exposing your stomach. However, if you are cool with a little skin peeking through check out these previous outfits here, here and here. I’ve worn this skirt on four other occasions but this time was my absolute favorite. There is nothing super special about this look but once again everything just came together perfectly from head to toe.
| Blazer – HM | Skirt – F21 | Purse – The Limited | Shoes – Betsey Johnson | Remember this gray skirt seen here and here? Well of course I needed the black one. Okay, I didn’t really need it but I REALLY wanted it. At one point you…
| Dress – Oldnavy | Boots – Macys | Purse – Rebecca Minkoff | It rarely gets cold here in Miami and cold by our standards means the temperature dips below 70 degrees. I bought these boots last year October and I have pulled them out at every cold weather…
