Orange Creamsicle

Thursday, March 1, 2012





* Peplum top - NY & Co. * Skirt - Thrifted/Goodwill * Pumps - Steve Madden/DSW * 
* Belt - Forever 21 * Watch - Fossil * Bracelet - Adriana Bijoux *

I received a great message from Jadie Y. with the following suggestion:

I absolutely LOVE YOUR BLOG! You have inspired me to be a better shopper rather than impulsive.  I never look at tags. UNTIL my girlfriend sent me your link.

My question to you is would you be open to make a section to include remakes of your outfits from your viewers.  I actually found the stripe old navy dress on eBay after seeing it on you and styled it.
GOOD WORK!!

Thank you so much Jadie for you kind words and I think this is a wonderful idea, if you have recreated any outfits seen on Curves and Confidence send me a picture with a short description of your outfit to curvesandconfidence@gmail.com so I can post it! Pictures must be good quality head to toe shots. If you want to participate but prefer not to have your face shown we can work that out as well. Now hurry up and email those pics so I can see what you guys are working with!

So today’s outfit is a different variation of this one, I changed up the skirt and belt for a more colorful look which I love! I really feel like an orange creamsicle, lol. I think I need one more peplum top; I wanted this outfit from NY&Co. but it's sold out online hopeful the outlets will have some straggler pieces left. I need that white and black color blocked skirt!

My shopping budget starts over today!!! Perfect timing for the It Girl Expo

This outfit is perfection!  The peplum top is so classy and I love that you paired it with a bright bottom and leopard belt.  Love this look....inspired.

Yes ma'am this says office ready & you're the boss. I'd love to recreate this with animal print shoes. Try H&M for peplum tops aroubd $17.

Very cute girl! That skirt was a good buy from the thrift.

Hello! I just found your blog today and I love it! I was in my local NY&C and purchased the peplum top in black. They had the skirt that you mentioned on clearance. Not sure what sized they had but I definately saw it.

You won't believe me but I wore this a couple of weeks ago before I even saw this on Pintrest. I put it together with nude shoes though. What a coincidence!?!
