Sip And Shop At The House Of Chanel

Had a great time while networking at a local women's boutique in Charlotte, NC called the House of Chanel.  This boutique carries main range as well as plus size clothes.  The sip and shop was a success and I'm already looking forward to the next one.  Hey what can I say?  I love any reason to get dressed and fancy. Oh, and did you guys check out my undercut?  What do you think of it?

Networking: Not What You Know, But Who You Know

Networking is one of the major keys to success.  I jumped at the chance to meet some of the small business owners of Charlotte at the recent "Woman Who Network" event at the beautiful club Caviar.  This event held over 15 vendors and ambitious professionals to shop from and share information with.  With gourmet food and free entry the event was a success and I will be sure to be at the next one!  I wanted to rock my thigh high Zigi NYC Piarry boots with an all black ensemble and a pop of color on my lips.  Love the dress?  Check out similar at Luxe Vain Boutique.

She's Pretty For A Big Girl? Flaws Of Couture

SWERVE! Naw Boo, She's pretty period!  In society big women are not traditionally looked at as being beautiful especially in America.  When an attractive full figure woman is seen people usually say she has a pretty face or she's pretty for a big girl.  This statement sweatshirt from Flaws of Couture's Pretty Period Collection is challenging society and the views of the ignorant when it comes to size and skin color.  "Pretty For A Big Girl?" is a not a statement but a question; one that should make a provincial mind wonder and think about how a statement like such can make a person feel.  This top is a must have for anyone that wants to make a statement and support that big women can be attractive as any other size.   FOC also will be releasing a "Pretty For A Dark Skin Girl?" sweatshirt soon so be on the lookout.
