Love/Hate - My need for shoes...

Alright... I know, I seriously have a problem. I love shoes... yes, admit it. Commit me to Shoes Anonymous if you must, but my need, want and addiction to them is not going to change. lol

I think I posted this pair of boots a few months ago... it is still definitely on my HOT list and would love to have them. The problem is... I have huge calves... and getting certain boots that don't have a wide or stretchy diameter is probably my biggest downfall. Ugh... it drives me insane.

Seriously, why don't shoe designers include larger styles for the plus sized diva? Just because we are big doesn't necessarily mean we don't want to rock a pair of thigh highs... hell, I would probably use them all day every day if I could. I am so amazed at the fact that no matter how much progress we make in this world with regards to stereotypes and what is the "ideal woman" we still manage to take several steps back.

So - if there are any designers out there that are looking to expand their horizon and start making some really interesting threads... take my advice and start incorporating some plus sized fashions in your collection. Statistics show that there are more plus sized gals in the world then there are skinny ones. Do you know that if you are over a size 6 you are technically considered plus sized? And, if you are a designer that is looking into designing anything plus sized and you need a model or a tester - whoop whoop... I'm here, hollah at your girl. ;)

So - shoe designers... hows about making these style of boots in a wider diameter so it will fit over my damn calves. lol

What is your shoe complaints?

Plus Sized Outfit of the Day

Today's Plus Sized Outfit of the Day is all about getting ready for Holiday Glitz & Glam.  If there is ever a time to dress to impress, it is during this time... when you can pull out all the stops - and sexy up your look for a night out on the town.  Pictured below is a beautiful dress by Z. Cavaricci Couture.  This Sparkle Leopard Tube Ruched Dress can be found at Torrid.com and features sexy accents like eyelash lace trimming on the hem and neckline with a back zip entry and elastic back.  It hugs your curves so perfectly as to show off all your greatest assets.  Obviously - the model pictured below is not me... but you know I would "ROCK" this dress.  In the photo below - the dress is paired with a Z. Cavaricci Couture Shelby Perforated Black Heel, an internet exclusive from torrid.com.  The heels are quite stylish and sexy but this dress is so hot that you could easily pair it with a sexy stiletto heel or black bootie.

Finish off this look with accessories like a beautiful layered silver or gold necklace or a simple black beaded necklace like they have pictured and a few bangle bracelets, dangle or chandelier earrings and a cocktail ring. This look can be matched up with either a nice natural makeup look with a rich red lip color or a sexy and sultry smokey eye in dark grays and purples and a nude lip.

For extra sexy style, leave you hair down and add some volumizer to give you that extra bold, a little messy but totally sexy look.  Don't forget to rock your look with a cute clutch.  Pairing your look with a clutch that is either gold or silver (depending on the colors of your accessories) will keep you ready for a night on the town.  If it is chilly out - simply add a cute shrug or waist length trench coat to polish off your look.  ;)

Check out torrid.com to purchase/view the dress pictured and other accessories.
