I have always loved the punk style of Vivienne Westwood. I carried her Anglomania line at the boutique and wore her pieces at every opportunity I could find. Recently, All Saints another British company has exploded in NY, but this time much more affordable! 

I attended the Phoenix House Summer Gala in the Hamptons this weekend, wearing a SICK white dress from All Saints. The draping of the dress was reminiscent of Vivienne Westwood in the 90’s. The fact that Shallon and I look a little queasy was due to the intense food poisoning we had from dinner the night before.

On episode 3 of Downtown Girls, in the first scene I am wearing a long silk pink dress. Maxi dresses in the summer are always an easy go to outfit as they are super comfortable and sexy.

STYLE TIP- Curvy girls, belt your maxi dress to create a small, defined waist. Wearing a plain silk long dress can begin to look drab and force hippy girls to look too bottom heavy or girls with larger chests to look like they have a belly. If I don’t belt loose dresses, I look like a pear!

Waist belts are my favorite accessory for making any loose top or dress a little more form fitting and sexy!

Check out the deleted scene of Klo and I picking out her wedding dress and discussing my fear of never-ending singledom!

Let’s face it, all girls have insecurities, mine is about my “tushie”. I was either blessed or cursed depending on who you ask with a large, round derriere. Growing up I always hated my shape because I was too curvy. Being a fashion addict my whole life, I always wished for a tall, lanky body like the models, so all the clothing I loved would look good on me! 

As I’ve grown into my curves I have become more aware of what shapes look good on my body. My fashion icons are all super straight, tall women and that is definitely not my body. I would love to wear mini shorts and oversize T-shirts like Erin Wasson or skinny leather pants and crop tops like Alexa Chung, however I have to embrace my own figure and wear what flatters me.

I look at celebs like Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez. They have beautiful, curvaceous bodies and love to show them off. I am proud to follow in their footsteps!

Some fashion tips for curvy women:
1. Always have a well fitting bra and underwear to help accentuate your assets.
2. Cinch baggier clothes at the waist to add shape.
3. Wear the size you actually are, not the size you want to be. When clothes are too tight they bunch in all the wrong places.

I have been getting emails regarding my outfit on Episode 1 of Downtown Girls, in the scene of the infamous bowling alley. Even though my EX kissed and flirted with everyone, making me look like an *sshole… at least my clothes looked good.

On top I am wearing a backless t-shrit from Topshop. It had sheer panels and is super comfortable! I wore it with Jbrand 10” skinny jeans in ink and YSL tribute sandals.
I also am wearing (although you can’t see it in the top picture) Made Her Think Double Band Chain Ring in Oxidized silver with pave diamonds.

Email me for special orders on any of these items!
