Beautiful girls' all around the world....

I wanna write about the women that I find most amazing around the globe, and why I find them amazing.  So many women are in the news currently for doing horrible things to children and people, that we need to take time to highlight the women who are amazing, strong and of course have a great sense of fashion.
North America:  Angelina Joile, yes she is over rated and she is around the globe known as a wonderful women, but I think that is because she really is.  Not only does she have her own children and raise them but she adopts children from around the world and loves them equally.  Something that recently has been a topic of discussion of women who adopt children and mis treat them because they do not feel they are their own.  Angelina from what I can see has no indication of this.  She is of course an amazing beauty and strong women and is known to always donate, even in times when our own government fails to do so.
Europe: Why its Mrs. Victoria Beckham of course! A women with a great sense of fashion, and a big family, that is just amazing.  and of course while wearing the hottest clothes. Yes that sound superficial but I believe that she is an amazing mother, her children seem very well rounded and well behaved.  Victoria is very thin, and has often been said to be suffering from eating disorders, I'm not sure of the truth to this.  However; she is a classy lady, with a lot on her head! I remember when she confronted Perez Hilton years back, it was great! Ballsy women are amazing! Personally I love her hair long!
South America: SHAKIRA SHAKIRA!!! AMAZING out of all the women Shakira is by far my favorite, she has everything going for her! Brains, body, moves, looks! I have watched Shakira change throughout the years, yet it doesn't seem like she is following any fashion trends but jus rather growing as a women.  Not only did she help write a book with Dora but she has set up a foundation in her Native country of Columbia.  Shakira is always around the world spreading positive vibes.  The only thing I currently have against her, is her boyfriend plays for Barcelona and I'm a Madrid fan! haha! I lost count as to how many times I tried to get my hair her color and have failed! And the amount of money I have spent! Ha!
Africa: Sade, although it seems she only appears every decade, her amazing voice never fails!!! The style of her music never goes out of style! Her signature songs that (No ord. Love) are classics.  Sadly, there is not a lot to write about her since her life is kept very private, but that is something that I admire from her. She could be out running wild, but she currently lives in the UK.
Middle East: Queen Raina, why? Because she has my daughters name! Well not just that, she is an amazing women who has done a lot for one of the causes that I stand by, which is Honor killings.  Since living in the country of Jordan she has helped Queen Nour to make the punishment stronger for women who suffer from Honor Killings.  She is a Muslim women, yet she doesn't cover her hair, but stays classy and beautiful.  Many of the royals around the middle east do not do much with their time besides spend their money.  She has a voice and she uses it.
Asia: Priyanka Chopra, an amazing actress in the Bollywood film scene.  Along with being a Goodwill Embassador she makes time for an amazing career and was Miss world.  7 khoon Maaf, if you get a chance check that movie out and you will see why she is amazing! I have seen most of her films, and personally I prefer her over Mrs. Rai.   
I know I forgot AUSSIE, but I couldn't think of any off the top of my head! So what are your girls leading ladies????





Every time I see your face....

                                                                                                                                                                         SoulStruck.com Sends me e-mails, and I try not to open them, but as Oscar Wilde said "I can resist everything but tempation".  Which is very true.  Today was all the new Jeffrey Campbell shoes for the fall. I almost died, the amount of Leopard I saw was amazing I was in heaven.  I always think if I had 5,000 dollars to spend alone on JC shoes I would die happy.  The shoes as the picture are what Im thinking as my fall shoe investment (well high price shoe).  What do you girls think? I like them cause I could wear them during the day and night also.  Being a mom on the run during the day, I want something that I can transform into night time shoes.  I think these would be great with black shorts a little tank top.   All of my mommy readers do you wear high shoes when you are out with your kids? I find myself more wearing flip flops but I do love to find a comfy shoe that is high.  I know the LITA JC's are really cute and comfy I feel super tall in them but I also feel I could chase my two year old around in them without falling on my face! It's not like I'm wearing stilletos'.  Although Victoria Beckham tends to pull that one off rather well! But I think she was born wearing Louboutins :) What I wouldn't give to be her daughter (minus the name Harper).

RIP AMY

Amy Winehouse, had one of the coolest voices of our generation.  Bringing us songs like "F*** me Pumps" (If you haven't heard it hear it, all about those ghetto gold digging girls at bars) and "Rehab".  Sadly she was a lost and troubled girl wrapped up in some scary stuff, that eventually brought her down.  As a tribute to her, for her soulful voice, next weekend when you go out, put on a few extra lines of eye liner and tease your hair a little more! Amy your music will always be with us all! RIP Beautiful girl!

Its great for a trip to the mall but........

Not the club, last night I encountered so many fashion mishaps that I don't think there is enough space on the blog for them all.  It was like left and right pure fashion HELL! But one of the one's that got to me was the crossbody bags at the club!!!! HELLO CLUTCHES!!! Crossbodies are great don't get me wrong, I love having mine at the mall or walking around out and about but at the club, big NO NO!!! You might as well sport a fanny pack! One of the main reasons is well, it looks tacky, but it also distracts from what you are wearing.  There are so many other options: Clutch! wristlet! Makeup bag (I.E. the small classic Louis Vuitton circa 2001).  I personally have been using my Burberry makeup bag it attach's to my purse so I fill it with the things I need for the club, you will never catch me using a crossbody, over my dead BODY :)

Embracing your curves? REALLY

Ok, so last night I went for a night on the town.  Being plus size, I know how to look cute, and understand where my curves are, and how to wear my spanx under! HOWEVER every time I go out there are hordes of women and girls who do not understand how to do this! Is it that hard to look in the mirror and realize that the dress doesn't fit? Some of the girls were not fat, but rather had on skin tight dresses with no ass's and beer bellies! I don't get it? What is sexy about that.  When you shop for an outfit always take someone you trust, and honestly take a guy with you, because he will tell you the truth, I feel like girls often sugar coat it.  I know my husband tells me like it is, and thank God for that.  Its ok not to have a good body, I don't but you have to know how to work with your body.  For example, the trend of mini skirts is in, and is super cute.  Many skinny girls are pairing it with a tight tank top or loss fitting one, which looks great on them, but if you are a plus size girl, try to wear a big shirt that falls off your shoulder (that adds some spice) and make sure it is not too short of a shirt, and always wear spanxx or something of that sort!  If you have no butt and a belly, try wearing jeans or shorts with a loss fitting tank top.  And girls, Please do not wear flip flops to the club! If you have small boobs dont wear 50 bra's too push them up, accept and love what you have and be happy you dont have to wear a grandma size bra to hold them up!

Before we get to fashion lets get this out of the way.....

So, the Casey Anthony trial is over, and its all over the media every step she takes (like everyone says OJ 2.0).  I feel as a mother I have to get this off my chest! The justice system has failed! I understand that the jury might not of wanted to have death put on their minds, but there were so many lesser charges that she could of been charged with, and we could of seen some justice for Caylee.  I was so angered how she threw her parents under the bus just to get off, granted the State didn't do much, but they worked with what they had.  Clearly the women (Casey) is a compulsive liar, and has issues.  If my daughter was missing even for 10 minutes I would go crazy and report it, not get all hoochified and go out with friends.  Even if she drowned as they said, I would be in such a state of shock and grief that I would not be able to live with myself! That's me personally! Being a mother is not easy! That is for sure, but you know if you cannot do it  there are so many people who would love to be parents! There are places that you can take your children if you feel you cannot handle them.  Why would someone resort to killing a child? I really hope though that Caylee is resting in peace.  No child deserves what happened to her.  Please if you suspect abuse or neglect contact your local CPS (Child protection service) office, if you are a parent and feel you cannot deal with your child, any hospital, police or fire station will take your child. There is always an option.  What is everyones thought on this case?

Guess who's back?

I have missed my blog sooooooo much! Im back! And Im here to stay! I don't know if I still have anyone checking or reading, but I will keep posting and hoping that you girls start reading again, and I can share stuff! Im sorry I started selling on eBay and if anyone has done eBay before they know how much it takes from you! Its crazy.  I wasn't just selling but I made a store.  I have been selling really cute stuff and having a lot of fun.  But honestly I miss writing! I gave up on all the social networks (they just got annoying) and I will be here :) So girls lets talk fashion! What have been your favorite trends of the summer? There are so many styles this summer, I have been dipping into each one of them, depending on my day.  I can tell you recently I have gone out, and I have seen so many girls LOST!!!! (Future post for that one).  Since I'm a mommy, I do want to also do a post about Casey Anthony, I know its all over, but I just feel I have to put in my two cents! I wanna ask you girls, if you have something that is from 2007 is it ok to wear it now in 2011? I will tell you, I have so many sunglasses and purses from back in the day, that I spent a lot on, and I still love them a lot, and I believe that as long as you like it, personally I think its ok! What do you girls think? Also a lot of you are Lamas Richie readers, what do you think about Shaynes pregnancy? Lots to talk about!!! Ok will be posting more :)
