Hey curvy girls all over the world,
For the past two weeks, my health was in a deteriorating state. I was literally on bed rest for entire week. Thankfully, due to antibiotics and other drugs I am back and in full effect. Posts will be back to 2-3 new articles a day and make sure you’re following me on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram to keep up with my shopping shenanigans.
You guys may remember this dress from my last haul (see here). I can honestly say, I never met a stripe I didn’t like and to kick off springs arrival, I decided to rock this festive striped dress from F21 plus. Like many of you, I love me a good body con but, I have to admit that I’ve gained a significant amount of weight over the past year and I had put them to the back burner because I just didn’t feel ready for them. Well, I decided, inspite of my extra pounds, I was going to embrace my new thicker body and just go on and get my groove back.
I picked up the coral color in the dress with a pair of ankle strap shoes from International Concepts. These are so freaking comfy and cute.
As for accessories,I opted for a matching coral clutch from Aldo, a coral and gold cuff, and a chain link necklace.
You know, I love pink, so for makeup I went with a gold eye and a pink mauve lip from Milani.
So, what do you guys think?
