Sunny Days & Swimwear

Hey Beach Babes,

After the big epidemic that plus size woman can wear what they want. And the phrase if you can do it I can do it better fits perfectly when were discussing swimwear. It seem like last summer more designers and retailers started offering trendier and more fashionable swimsuits for us plus size divas. And the best part is there not just the boring one-piece bathing suits we're now able to purchase two-piece swimsuits that are flattering for a woman with curves. This summer I plan on living (not literally) at the beach I just love the relaxed atmosphere and now I can it in style. Here are some of my favorite swimsuits from retailers that offer curvy girl-friendly swimwear. Enjoy!!!!

Disclaimer: The two-pieces on their website don't seem to have too much coverage so if your looking to purchase a swimsuit from them with a lot of coverage (tummy area) then get a one-piece.

If The Shoe Fits, Wear It!!!!

Hey ShoeFeens,
As women we can all wear this name proudly. So being a shoe lover myself, I wanted to do a virtual styling around these fly Jeffrey Campbell "Rock-A-Bye" Wedges. I came across these awesome shoes one day scrolling on Instagram to @ShoeGameInsane she is the owner of "Fly Feet Boutique & Style". I contacted her inquiring about the shoes and also if  I can use them in an virtual styling, because I loved them so much. Fly Feet Boutique is an online boutique based of SC that sales shoes, customizes shoes, sales vintage thrifted  clothing, and she also styles clients. She was a sweetheart in answering my question and also allowing me to use the fly shoes. If your interested in these shoe or fancy footwear like this just check her out @ShoeGameInsane on Instagram.
