Styling a basic LBD

 

I hope you all had fabulous weekend. Remember when I went to check out the H&M Canada plus size line collection a few weeks ago? This is one of the cute basic LBD I came home with. H&M has the cutest basics and they are affordable too. I can’t remember how much I got this one for, but I bet you it was not much. Because of the color, this dress  can be paired with any kind of jackets and or blazers for fall. How do you style your basic LBD ?

32 and counting………..

 

Your girl turned 32 today. I am not as hype as I used to be on my birthdays since I entered my 30s. Maybe because I am really scared of getting old. I am thankful to be alive & healthy, and hope to celebrate many more years.

Are you happy with yourself ?

Plus size dresses for women #mycurvesandcurls #psbloggers  #Stripes #plussize #fashion #canadian

Right before I started writing this post, I saw a very interesting post on my instagram feed here. The post was about fact that many of us let ourselves be fooled because we have a certain number of followers on social media. After I re-posted the post on my feed, I asked my followers the following question:

” After you turn off your facebook, instagram, twitter, blog, are you still happy with your life and the things you’ve accomplished ? “

I had a long conversation with a blogger friend of mine just a couple of weeks ago. I expressed to her how sometimes, I really wanted blogging to go back to what it was before.Remember, when people just blogged for the love of it? Remember when you did not have to advertise on social media ? Don’t get me wrong social media is a beautiful thing, however you have to remember that they can be shut down in a minute. The things you do when you are not online are really the moments that matter.

When you pick up your kids from school, when you cook your family’s favorite meals, when you take care of your husband/wife/partner, when you assist your friends in time of need, when you donate that blood at the hospital, how you treat people to name a few. So let me ask you again, when you turn off your computer are you happy with your yourself , and your life?

BLACK FASHION WEEK MONTREAL DAY 1 OUTFIT

Holla loves !  Just a quick stop to share what I wore on day one of the Black Fashion Week Montreal. Guess who go there late yesterday ? Yours truly. I am battling my nasty cold still and non stop headaches so I decided to drive there instead of taking train like many others did. Once I got there I could not find a parking spot for the life of me. Thank god I went there with my sister so she keep me sane in the car. After driving around for like 30 minutes we finally found a public parking. I run in to get my press pass and the shows started just a few minutes after. I never got the chance to take any street-style pictures because there were a lot of beautiful people there. I will review the shows and post pictures of the designs on Ciaafrique.com for those of you who care to see it … I am off to get ready for the show tonight. Cheers Read More »
