Closet Cleanout and an Intro to Swapdom!

February 21, 2014 by CurvyGirlChic 9 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram, you might have caught on that I recently moved into a new place (YAY!). What’s not so awesome, is that during the move, I tragically lost about half of my closet space (life is hard, lol), so a thorough closet cleanout was necessary in a major way. While I…

Shopping Spotlight: Contrast Trim Trench Coat

April 6, 2012 by CurvyGirlChic 10 Comments

The Kate Spade ‘Topliner’ trench is perfection in my eyes. Its black trim, perfectly oversized and rounded lapels, and attention to detail (you can’t see it here but the lining is a gorgeous Florence Boardhurst pattern that I’ve used as the border here) are the stuff of dreams.

Calvin Klein Plus Sizes on Ideeli!

[ :: My picks from ideeli’s Calvin Klein sample sale! :: ] I know I’m on a shopping ban, but I picked up the ruffled zip up top in poppy (top row, middle)! It technically won’t be charged until it ships (which will be after the ban is over! lol) and I just can’t say…
