Ladies with Curves - Can't find clothes your size?

Happy New Year loves! So late...I know. lol. Better late than never right? I'm finally glad to be over my sickness, and get back to blogging. We have all been busy over the holidays with eating, family, more eating, gifts, and more eating. LOL. I hope each of you had a wonderful time with your loved ones. Well, let's move onto today's topic. A few months ago, we had someone ask about skirts for more 'curvy' women. If you're a latina like me, you tend to have CURVES. Ladies, you already know we are genetically built that way. LOL. It's rare to see a Spanish female without hips or curves. Apparently, it's a good thing...but I beg to differ. In my opinion, it means I will never be able to fit my hips into a size 0. LOL. jk, I wouldn't want to be that thin (no offense to my thin chicas). However, 'curves' make it difficult for us to find clothing that will fit or flatter the figure without drawing too much attention to "our insecuritie...

Retro Side Bun by SkirtedFancy

Hello my lovely ladies and gents, I hope everyone is having a wonderful & relaxing weekend. As I dog sit for my brother (& deal with a gassy pitbull, ugh.), I thought of taking time to share a great person/inspiration that I found on Instagram (initially) then on Youtube.  Since the weather is really heating up in South Carolina, the hair-down-do's just do not cut it with our weather changes. Now, thanks to SkirtedFancy's channel, she does hair tutorials for females with really long hair. If you're anything familiar with long hair, you'll know it's a hassle sometimes regardless of it's beauty aspect.  So ladies, please enjoy this tutorial which is AMAZING for the summer time.  Also feel free to search her on Instagram and Youtube. She also has a GREAT sense of fashion. ;)  Please let us know if this tutorial helped some of you ladies. If you don't get it the first time, practice makes PERFECT! lol.  @SkirtedFancy on Instagr...

Thanksgiving: CHECK ...now, Christmas!

Hello my dear readers, I'm so sorry I've been so ghost on all of you! Huge thanks to D2 for keeping you guys updated. :D I have been crazy trying to travel for Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping for a family that my job adopted, and trying to continue planning my upcoming trip to NY...last but not least work. :/ hehehe. At any rate, I know everyone is getting ready to spend quality time with their families over the holidays as well as giving wonderful gifts from the heart. I'm more of a giver than a receiver. I love to think my heart was constructed under the blue print of the heart of Jesus...always giving out of love. I am not saying Christmas should be about gifts, but it's always nice when I can make someone else smile. Definitely take this time to appreciate your loved ones and spend the time that you've missed with them throughout the year. ...AND if you have some EXTRA time on your hands, feel free to reach out to those in real need. We are too blessed ...

Shoedazzle Review! Shoes have arrived!

Hello lovely people, You will have so much fun with this post today. lol. I hope all of you are having a wonderful week. I'm still dealing with headaches...& I think it's about that time to visit a doctor. Anyway, about 2 weeks ago, I informed some of you through our Facebook page about the sale going on at Shoedazzle.com. You know me...I'm always up for a good deal. So, I took part of this Shoedazzle buy 1 bootie, get a shoe for free. I purchased a black bootie, which I love... except the toe looks funny. I thought it was more round toe shaped but it's actually kind of pointy. I have no problem with pointy, so I'm fine with it. They were full price when I purchased them, now they are half price, and they have a beautiful maroon color. If you're interested, visit SHOEDAZZLE! Btw, their shoes have a freshly made smell when you buy them from Shoedazzle, I loved it!!! LOL, yes I'm weird like that...Anyway, here they are: (Sorry about the small pics, b...

Columbus Weekend Sales!

Hello lovely readers! I hope you all are having a much better Friday than I am. I've been feeling sick for 3 days now, so I'm having a crappy morning. :/ On top of that, I'm having knee issues, so I had to stay off heels today...ugh. Oh well. At least I'm comfy! LOL. I will put an OOTD post on Instagram later on today. Just wanted you all to know there will be a few sales this weekend. If you haven't purchased your fall/winter clothing, this would be the PERFECT time! :) 1. H&M will have a Columbus Weekend Sale with 60% off their jackets & sweaters.  If you haven't purchased your leather jacket or good sweaters, go and check out this store. The offer is available online and in stores. I recommend going to the store to try it on, but I'm sure they have a return policy if you don't like it after you've purchased online. This applies to males and females!!! ;) www.hm.com/us 2. Charlotte Russe will have Buy 1, Get 1 Fre...

Charlotte Russe Jackets & Instagram

Happy Friday Wonderful Readers, I have sooo much to say, but I can only do so much with my time limitations. I have not forgotten all of you. As promised, I am going to let you all know what I found on my shopping spree last weekend! My sister and I went to almost EVERY store in Augusta mall last weekend. Then we decided to go to Charlotte Russe, which we couldn't find!!! It was so crazy because we ALWAYS go there, but for some reason we were having brain farts. hehehehe. We went to several "directory" stands, but instead of having directions all they had were advertisements! -_- I bet the people sitting in the food court thought we were crazy, because we walked by there like 100x's...ok, like 10. LOL Anyway, so I get there look around, pick up every leather black jacket I see and as I'm walking to the last one...I pass this beautifully wrinkled beige leather jacket with an "across the chest" gold zipper and a small waist belt that could be adjuste...

Fashion Fall Trends 2013

Hello beautiful ladies & handsome gentlemen,  I started this post on Monday.  However, it's been an extremely busy week for me at work. At any rate, I wanted to share the new fall trends that have come out since fashion week. I am a strong believer in being modest, but I'm also a strong believer in a sense of fashion. There is a huge difference... I actually did not know about the trends until I started looking for my new black leather jacket like 2 days ago. However, I was able to welcome fall with the new trends, and no clue about fashion week trends!  For those of you who do not know when fall began, the first day of fall was last Sunday. I have shared this on our Instagram profile (@ddspurebliss), but here is the outfit I wore to welcome Fall! Chiffon beige skirt with a Charcoal Black blazer, an emerald top, and my black shiny Ann Taylor heels... Luckily, the blazer and the emerald top are two of the new fall trends for 2013, which I did not ...
