Today’s Blog posting is to write  A Letter To Your Wobbly Bits. 

Well let me start off by saying Hello to my BIG ARMS…….. OMG!!!, I really fight myself about my arms.

I’m always trying to cover them up some type of way, if you can remember, I posted about my arms back in April, speaking about how self conscious I am about my arms and how I am always trying to find a Blouse with sleeves to cover them up.

 

Well guess what, that stopped about  3 weeks ago, I was reading a blog  itsmisstiddlechubbyworld on tumblr. I was intrigued by her post,  she was speaking about freeing your arms, and she was joining a movement call #chubbyarmsbefree.

Then a few days later , Tess Holiday on the cover of PEOPLE magazine showing her beautiful arms (Tatted) up, #effyourbeautystandards

tess           tumblr_nopoyk284G1qj6wguo1_1280 you go TESS!!!!

So after reading itsmisstiddlechubbyworld post and  seeing Tess Holiday on People,  I asked myself  why do you hate your arms, that’s crazy, my arms are my arms,  I decided to join the #chubbyarmsbefree movement, to embrace my arms, to hug these BIG ARMS, yes I’m hugging and loving my BIG ARMS, I will stand proud…. BIG ARMS and all, and they (my BIG ARMS) will jiggle every time I clap, jump or run.

RUN, did I say RUN…….. yeah right, okay a girl can dream, can’t she….. 😉

                                                     Anyhoo

No more wobbly bits for me, I’m shouting #chubbyarmsbefree….No more wobbly bits for my BIG ARMS, I’m SHOUTING #chubbyarmsbefree!!!!!

 

Yes thanks to misstiddle who posted about the #chubbyarmsbefree movement,  I’m proud to say heres my oath: “I do solemnly swear to accept these arms that are attached to my body and to wear any Top/Blouse I love with NO SLEEVES.

(Look out below BIG ARMS  armout  – styling and profiling in my Screw Perfection Tank Top!!!!!).

June Eleven and Twelve BEDJ 

Hey Sparklers, bet you thought I forgot to do the challenge for June 11th, NOT!  (smile) I was so busy getting ready for a Baby Shower this weekend, preparing a Diaper Cake, I can’t wait to show the finished item….. Pics coming soon!

So I’ve decided to combine both the What’s in my Bag and The OOTD  together.

First off my BAG, omg!!!!! I need a new purse, my so call diamonds are popping off, dang it, but I love this purse so much. I can put so much inside of it, my iPad, Sunglasses, Phone, makeup bag, including, although not showing a pair of flip flops, etc. yep……all those goodies and more.

FAVE “QUOTE” & WHY

Posted in Positive Quotes by

 

                                                    Day #8 For   bedj

 

The “Quote” that caught my eye about 3 months ago came from the Beautiful →    Marilyn Monroe

                                                                      Take a look below

                                                                               ⇓⇓⇓⇓⇓

 

MarilynMonroe14

                             WOW!!!        I know Right…..

 

This quote speaks in volumes, it tells you, that you don’t need anyone to give you the okay to believe in yourself.

Don’t get me wrong, I love it when people believe in me and have positive things to say…..but, as the quote say,“Believe in yourself”.

I do believe, when your confident in yourself the rest will follow.

What’s your Favorite “Quote”?

MY HAUL

Posted in Haul, OOTD by

Day Seventh Of bedj

 

Good Day Sparklers,

I’m back for the BEDJ Challenge, I’m really enjoying this 🙂 (Smile).

I would also like to Thank the New Followers to my Blog, I was so excited to see that everyone liked my Fave Nail Product…(June 6, 2015).

So lets get to the Haul, I was browsing the web and went to asoscurve looking around to purchase anything that caught my eye, and saw this

Beautiful Black Bardot Top, Image 1 of ASOS CURVE Bardot Top  at asoscurve  so I went to “Select Size”, BOMBER, “Not Available”, “NOT WHAT?” 😱 😢 Really!!! that was about 2 months ago, and as of May 25, 2015, yes I was still checking, and my size still isn’t available, but maybe your size is :).

 

Well guess what, I was surfing the web again, and ended up at Torrid, and low and behold….(music playing 🎶🎶🎶 – I’m doing the happy dance 💃💃💃), A Blouse similar to the one at asoscurve, so I’m literally screaming out LOUD, “please have my size”, “please have my size”…let the countdown begin…. Five,Four,Three,Two,One…hitting “Select Size”, YES!!!!!!

So for my Haul, last week I purchased from Torrid, an off the shoulder Bardot Blouse Pretty Sexy, I must say, I was so excited to find this Blouse, and doubly excited that it was 20% off. Yes, again my wallet is saving…..”Cha Ching”.

I also, purchased a Body Shaper   from Torrid, feels pretty sturdy, can’t wait to fight my way through putting it on, but I’m sure it will be well worth it. 😄😄😄

I love shopping at Torrid, the clothes I have bought from there so far are amazing, (no I’m not getting paid to say this) I just love their clothes, so, If your interested in the items I’m showing here in this HAUL, they are now even cheaper, Torrid is having  a 25% off limited time online sale today with using the code SUNNYSTYLE.

 

image  My items!

 

Thanks Torrid for having this Bardot Blouse, I’m going to wear it with some Black/White Palazzo Pants I purchased from SWAK a while back, and a pair of Peep-Toe heels from NEW LOOK, not too brag, But I should look pretty darn amazing.

 

 

That’s it for this Haul see  ya 2morrow for  blog2 favorite “QUOTE” & Why?

DAY #1 – BEHIND YOUR BLOG

blog2

Good Day everyone,

I’ve decided to try this Challenge that was created by:

Lisa of  myBIGFATblog

I learned of this challenge by subscribing to PlusSizeandProud blog. So I was reading her post for today, and saw the challenge for “Blog Every Day In June”.

So I commented to PlusSizeandProud telling her I wish I could do this challenge sounds exciting, she stated,  “why not join in, Lisa would be happy” so here I am thinking this would give me the push I need.

You see, I follow a lot of plussize bloggers… so I said to myself, why not start a blog  and talk about being “Phabulous” & Sparkling @ 50  and still enjoying life in my Golden years, I’m plus size and I love fashion and beauty (smile). I work everyday, and soon as I get home the TV is watching me….so blogging will give me something to do during the evenings. So I thought look pretty easy….

I said LOOKED PRETTY EASY……NOT.

So, I started blogging on December 31, 2014, and have been learning a lot along the way, one thing about it,  I do enjoy blogging and making new friends along the way.

Thank you for this challenge, I’ll give it a try…..LOL!!!!!!

My Easter

Posted in OOTD by

Today was a great day relaxing and spending time with my family. The weather was great sun shining…..giving praise to The Lord Jesus.

Spent most of the day cooking Easter Dinner and afterwards decided to get dress and enjoy the rest of the day. I am so self-conscious about my arms, I’m always trying to find something to cover them up (my FAT arms), LOL, so this Cold Shoulder Duster from Charlotte Russe worked out beautifully for this outfit.
