Getting Ready For Full Figured Fashion Week (FFFW) 2015!

Ladies Full Figured Fashion Week (FFFW) is just days away! Are you ready for one of the most exciting weeks in plus size fashion?!? If you're not, don't worry I have a few last minute tips!

Wardrobe!
It's FFFW! Bring out the prints, bold colors, crop tops, jumpsuits and everything else that defines your sense of style. Let the streets of NYC be your runway! Remember accessories are everything!

Explore NYC!!
There is nothing like summer in NYC! If you are from out of town, you definitely want to check out Farrah's post, "Fun things to do in New York during FFFWeek (Besides Shopping)". There is so much to do, so many places to go and yes ladies so many places to shop.  If you are from the area make this FFFW the week you step out the box. Avoid going to your usually spots and explore a different side of NYC!

Network!!!
How often are you around such an outstanding group of women? I mean designers, models, bloggers, photographers, writers, entrepreneurs and women like you who are changing the world's view on fashion! Come ready to network and even make a friend or two!

Don't Forget Your Tool Kit!!!!
Like any stylist you don't want to leave home without all your tool kit. You know the perfect lips that makes you feel extra beautiful, the bra that doesn't dig in you side and makes the girls look great (you  ladies know what I'm talking about) and of course a cute pair of flats. Whatever your staples or must haves may be make sure not to leave them behind.

I don't know about you, but I'm excited for what's in store! Hope to see you there!

My Love Affairs With Flats...

Oh my love affair with flat… started around 2003. See somehow I stepped on a toothpick, yes I said a stupid toothpick! It was the summer before my junior year of high school and I had come home from my summer job. I took off my shoes and walked into the living room, where we had a thick shaggy rug. Somehow there was a toothpick and I steeped on it. We didn’t even have toothpicks at home! To make a long story short, the following morning I ended in the hospital and it was like I never left. I had six  surgeries  between that July and April 2003. So clearly high heels have near been my thing. Though I think they are absolutely beautiful and wish I could walk at least to the car in them.  So I began my love affair with flats, always looking for comfortable and fabulous ones to make my outfits. Check out a few I am hoping to add to my collection this fall! Ballerina Flats with Gems (Zara) $ 59.90  Leather Ballet Flats with Blow (Zara) $ 59.90  Printed  Leather Slippers (Zara

There is no right or wrong, so step out the box and go with what makes you feel good.  Two, accessories are everything! I mean what better way to give your outfit life then with a signature necklace, bag or why not just both?! Three and most important of all, don't forget to wear your  confidence!  It's truly what sets you apart from the rest.
