Happy Hump Day!
Here are few extra favorite outfits I completely forgot about in Monday’s post. To be honest I’ve been in a kinda style rut lately but I promise to get back into the groove of things by Friday’s post.
Have an awesome day!
Half Way There
Happy Monday all!
So its been seven months since my first post way back in January. In these seven months I’ve learned so much about myself and blogging. I find that blogging helps me to continue my journey and keeps me honest. I still struggle with my self-esteem but it’s not nearly as crippling as it used to be. Your comments and support mean the world to me. The love you have shown me is tremendous and I want to thank each and every one of you from the bottom of my heart.
With that said I wanted to do a retrospect of my favorite outfits so far. These outfits highlight me becoming more open to stepping outside my comfort zone and taking a risk.
On another note, if you live in Philadelphia or in the surrounding areas, please come out and support Curvy Closet’s event on Saturday September 1st. The event looks like is going to be a lot of fun. Plus there will be an opportunity to shop til you drop so check it out!
Have a wonderful day!
Casual Friday/Color Tribe
Happy Saturday everyone!
I first wore this colorful tribal print dress during Full
Figure Fashion Week. I was so excited about meeting my favorite bloggers I totally forgot to take an outfit pic! So my post today is to remedy that mistake.
If you don’t own a Calvin Klein dress, try one soon. Calvin Klein has been making plus size clothes for some time now and the quality of their dresses are outstanding. The dresses are not boring and outdated. They have classic work staples but include many pieces that are on trend. I’ve not been disappointed with the quality of the fabric and cut of their dresses. They get that plus size women want to look sleek and sophisticated whether they’re going to the office or hanging out with friends.
I apologize for my necklace being askew in the pic. I gotta remember to keep it classy! LOL
Have a wonderful weekend!
P.S. This dress comes with a belt but I didn’t wear it because I couldn’t find it in my closet! Whoops! Lol
Dress: Calvin Klein
Sandals: Steve Madden
Bracelet & necklace: Macys
You Too Can Color Block!
Casual Friday/The Emancipation of Me
TGIF everyone!
When I woke up Thursday morning I was pleasantly surprised to see myself on the WordPress homesite as apart of “Freshly Pressed”. I was honored to have been selected. The amazing comments that followed made me feel even more grateful. I want to thank EVERYONE who viewed and/or commented on my “Perfectly Pleated” post. Your comments mean so much to me because this time last year I was not the confident, smiling woman you see. I didn’t like myself and would bombard myself with hurtful thoughts. The way I dressed mirrored how bad I felt inside. I would wear frumpy, unflattering clothes because I felt ugly and wanted to hide my body. This began to change after having surgery to remove a 20lb tumor from my abdomen in November 2011. As I recovered from my surgery at home, I did some real soul searching. The outpouring of love from family, friends and co-workers helped to me stop hating myself. I decided to banish all negative thoughts about myself. I threw every piece of frumpy clothing I owned in the trash. I was not going to be that Georgette anymore. I was going to be the Georgette I always knew lived in inside of me. From that point on, Ive never looked back and couldn’t be happier.
Again, thank you for being wonderful and have an awesome weekend!!!
