PEACHY

Showpo is a new-to-me brand this year, and I have to admit that every time I make an order, I revert back into a young girl – ripping through packages and ‘ooh’ing and ‘ahh’ing at everything. I’m obsessed with their lovely fit and flare styles that marry romantic and sexy. This peachy dress is no different – casual and sweet with a hit of sexy with the tie-front detail at the bust. I’m wearing a size 16 and the pockets make it the perfect day-date look. dress via showpo #peac

Caribbean Cuties

If you’ve been following my YouTube channel this week (you are subscribed, right?) you know I’ve recently spent some time in the Caribbean with one of my dearest friends, Gavyn from The Curvy Cutie. To say that Nassau and the Bahamas is a dream come true is an understatement. The weather is perfect, the palm trees are lush and tower over you, clusters of coconuts hiding below the leaves. The air smells like the sea and everywhere you turn, you feel like Keira Knightley in Pir

Ruffled

My ultimate warm-weather weekend color combo will always be hot pink and gold. And now that we’re officially into warmer days, I find myself reaching for the girlie and chic duo more and more. When I got this tunic in the mail I knew exactly how I’d pair it up: with a pair of oversized gold sunnies and nude sandals — perfect for having lunch with my bestie at our favorite spot overlooking the lake. waterfall ruffle tunic c/o city chic | sunnies by quay in muse via nordstrom |

Weekend Vibes

After what seemed like an impossibly cold two weeks here in Phoenix, the sun pushed through and brought 90 degree weather. We, in fact, broke a record for the earliest 90 degree day… ever. Not exactly a record I want to break, but anyway. Husband and I love to have mini adventures on the weekend – running around town, trying new taco places, going to festivals, etc. As soon as we saw warm weather, we knew we’d be out all day. I opted for lightweight fabrics and a bag that c

Spring Is Coming

Spring is coming. I know it’s near impossible for my East Coast snow bunnies to believe, as you sit under about 67 feet of snow and arctic temperatures, but I promise you, it is. Here on the West Coast, things are getting a bit mild (read: 50 degree nights, 75 degree days) and it’s got me thinking about everything from resort season to snow cones with my girls and trip out to the beach. I’m breaking the winter blues today with a bright and floral number that I thought (when I

Little Pink Dress

Make no mistake: I am, and always will be, a strong advocate for the little black dress. It’s a classic that will never, ever go away. That being said, I definitely don’t mind a deviation every now and then! I love this plus size dress from boohoo – the pink leaned more warm (perfect to go with my summer tan) and the neckline coupled with the perfect knee length made it a no brainer. It’s sassy with a hint of sexy and reminds me of something Princess Aurora would wear on a s

Lilly Pulitzer for Target SwimWear

When the collaboration was announced, I knew I wanted to load up on swimwear. While I ended up snagging a few other pieces, I decided to keep these in their packaging until Swim Week came back. I’m so excited to show you guys the gorgeous plus size swimwear pieces I bought in hopes that the fit, colors and photos would inspire you to find something similar that works for you. The first set I picked up was the Fan Dance print set. The pastel print is so cute and the sweet litt

White Hot

There’s nothing more gorgeous in the summer than white. If you’ve been visiting here for a while, you’ll know I’m a big fan of all-black-everything. When the summer comes, I flip that around as much as I can and try to wear white as often as possible. The contrast deepens my tan and becomes the neutral that goes with everything. I’m trend-mixing a bit in today’s look. Bardot necklines have been huge so far this season (though a staple of mine since they work so well for my fr

Pink, Please

Warning: Don’t wear this. This look isn’t for everyone. Don’t wear this if you want stay hidden like a wallflower. Don’t wear this if you want to be invisible. Don’t wear this if you’re comfortable where you are. Don’t wear this unless you want to stand out. This look is a showstopper. I often get told when I’m out and about that I look nice. People ask where I got this garment or those shoes. But this look was a bit different. *gasp* “WHERE DID YOU GET THAT?!” “That’s

PopSugar OPI Hawaii Color Challenge Plus Size Edition

When the gorgeous and talented Miss Pepper invited me to be a part of this mega-collab, I couldn’t say no. Firstly, because I adore her to bits, but second, because there’s nothing I love more than a fashion challenge. Have you ever wondered: if you were a color, what color would you be? (No? Just me? Okay.) I’ve always felt I would be hot pink. The bright, punchy color is energetic and warm and at the same time, feminine and bold. skirt via banana republic {old, similar dres

California Dreaming

This jumpsuit is everything amazing about the early 90’s, reimagined. When I was growing up in frigid Canada, I would dream of going to California and a life filled with palm trees and beach parties and purple-pink sunsets over the Pacific. Even though I don’t live in a condo overlooking the Pacific (I am close! LA is just a quick 5 hour drive away), I can pretend! This outfit makes me feel like a kid again – in the best possible way. jumpsuit via city chic {prints not your

DIY: Make it Pink!

If you’ve been a reader for a while now, you know I have a thing for re-vamping pre-loved shoes. I took on a new, super simple project this weekend and wanted to share it with you all. With the holidays just around the corner, I know we’re all searching for the perfect gift to give the ladies in our lives (bffs, sisters, cousins, aunts, nieces, even daughters!) I can’t think of a better gift than one that is made with love. And this Christmas gift idea is so easy and fun and

DIY: Super Glam Pink Hair

“If I got hit by a truck tomorrow, I swear to god the last thing I would say – whilst gasping for air, mind you – is: dammit! I never got to have pink hair!” Yeah, that’s an actual excerpt from an actual conversation I had last week. Part of me wanted to call Jocelyn (the hair goddess at the salon I frequent far too often) And tell her to bleach my head and grab the pink dye. But having been down that road before (I can’t even talk about platinum blonde fiasco of 2004) I knew
