Simple & Cute

Saw Prometheus tonight! Wanted to keep it simple, it's ridiculously humid and summer is just at it's start. Any kind of heat requires me to have my hair up, so my friend Patricia, along with recent tv/movie badass female leads (The Evil Queen in Snow White, Daenerys/Sansa from Game of Thrones, and Katniss from Hunger Games) all inspired me to do more with my braids. I've been youtubing different braid styles and have a few more up my sleeve, but I found this one to be particularly great for surviving the heat.

Spring & Summer Must Haves: Part 2

Ok guys I'm going to tell you a little secret... I get MOST of my accessories from Ardene. I know, I know, it's that place we all went to as teens to get funky gummy bracelets and crazy sunglasses, even now they randomly have teen clothing but I'm telling you they have really upped their game. Every time I go in there I come out with some crazy good finds. Best of all is that this place is cheap as fuck! They have year round deals like 5 hair accessories for $10. They also have sales on other things like 2 wallets for $10, 2 pairs of shoes for $20, and on and on. This is my lot from last week, as you can see I took advantage of most of the sales. Not pictured but I got some MINT GREEN FLATS! <3

             

Spring & Summer Must Haves: Part 1

         

The first biggest Must Have on any fatshionistas list this spring/summer is anything floral. I've found some fantastic additions to any floral lovers wardrobe from the plus size ladies clothing catalogue sizes 12-32 brought to you by Marisota. They are ridiculously spot on with their wide range of trendy floral selections ranging from swimwear (!) to very pretty bras. 

My second Must Have is updated staple pieces. Staples pieces can really be worn year-round so, It's really important to find some nice basics that are a little updated. Here I've found a nice classic tunic: it's the mint green color that adds a little something extra and current. Same goes with the black dress, the lace sleeves and pleating detail make it stand out just enough to have ready and waiting for any occasion. 

Want more? Don't worry, I'll be back later this week with some Must Have Accessories!
