Torrid Excursion. Sweet Sweater and High Waisted Pants Are Back.

I'd like to take a moment to thank the clothing manufactures and those in the fashion industry who came to their senses and stopped making all jeans and casual pants low rise.  For a plus size or even curvy gal the low rise pant is and was a complete disaster- unless you're into Plumber's Butt.

So I ventured into Torrid today and tried on a few items and I had my bff take a picture of me on my favorite ensemble.
The sweater is a pinky peachy color and had silver lips on it.  It was a size 3x.  The pants were a size 26 and were a dark grey with three buttons at the waist and a zip fly.  I did not fail to notice that they had some interesting faux leather pants on the same table where I found my grey stretchy pants.
The ones on the picture have just enough spandex and taper at the ankle making them very slimming yet comfortable.

I've been told my socks are ridiculously bright blue.  I agree.  Thats a killer pose there, don't ya think?  :-P  Yeah, so modeling might not be my strong suit.  LOL.

If i was not trying to keep to a budget and also lose some weight I would have purchased this outfit.

No Candy for The Sexy Pussycat!

Halloween has come and gone.  I did my best to avoid eating candy and I even managed to eat mostly healthy over brief holiday which is why tomorrow I'm going to weigh myself and start counting calories.  Let's see how that goes!!!  

Today I want to review a faux fur jacket I bought from ASOS.  The coat is by the company Alice & You.  It is referred to as their Colored Shaggy Fur Jacket.  I bought it in a size 24 and it seems to no longer be available in that size from ASOS- just a heads up.  The inner diva in me wanted to rock a colorful shaggy faux fur coat this fall and winter.  Wearing it makes me feel as proud as a peacock and also super snuggly and warm.  The cost was high but not way too much.  The expense seemed to be justified by the quality and uniqueness of the coat.  This jacket does not close.  It does not have buttons or a zipper.  I found it runs true to size.  If you've never felt the warmth and luxuriousness of a sweet faux fur jacket with a silky lining inside then you have not lived!
