Curvy in the City Part 1

This is the start of my fashion chronicle as I navigate the city of Atlanta. This week I went out to the Ritz II, which is located on the South side of Atlanta. Let me just say that there were some interesting fashions showing up throughout the night.

For example I have never in my life seen a woman in a leotard outside of a dance class or ballet. Yet, that night I saw not one but two women wearing leotards. I will say this...one of the ladies had the body to kinda pull it off. However, the other woman clearly did not and it ended up looking a hot mess!

Also, in small doses I like animal print as much as the next gal, but ladies when you have a leopard dress and shoes, it just becomes print overkill! Animal print is also not for all shapes and sizes....for my plus size ladies animal print pants or a dress can end up looking unflattering and even comical. So remember ladies! Small doses please!!!


Now, I chose to dress pretty casual, for me, with my shoes dressing what could be called a pretty plain dress.  I wore a tubed boyfriend shirt style dress from KnowStyle, and paired it with cream wedges by Levity from DSW.

 






I topped the outfit off with  the Peacock earrings, gold and silver bangles from "Fashion Motivation Found!!!", and a taupe snakeskin clutch  from Pink Sky Boutique.  

I chose to wear my hair as an updo because I just love a quick bun that looks kinda messy but elegant. I also wanted to highlight my earrings. Boyfriend shirt dresses are a popular trend right now that I absolutely love!! With this dress you can go casual with some cute flat sandals or dress it up with a wide belt and heels.      
These dresses fit sort of loose so it's perfect for slim or curvy shapes. These dresses are affordable and can be bought at different retail stores such as this dress from Forever21.
