Breakin' the Rulezzzz...

For the past few years I have contended with the fact that I am...plus sized...While I have made changes in the past to address this issue and "fix" it, the fact still remains that every time I shop in a store or online I hope and pray that the merchandiser picked out lovely, curve appealing clothing for a person with my figure. Up until recently I have lived with the notion that being a certain size means that I cannot break the SIX cardinal rules!

1. ALWAYS wear black, it's flattering and hides imperfections!

2. Stay clear of stripes...specifically HORIZONTAL ONES, they make you look larger!

3. NEVER wear white...it is the enemy..yo will look like a huge white cloud

4. SKINNY JEANS are for SKINNY people

5. Loose clothing is a NO- NO... makes you look fatter...

6. Spandex SHOULD be AVOIDED!

These five rules are not only annoying, they are also outdated. Since these rules were created over 100 years ago (lol),  clothing has evolved, especially plus size clothing. We have since moved far beyond all black uniforms, huge floral prints and the tasteless, disgusting, huge polka dots that were once considered fashionable for a plus size diva.             

I break ALL of the above rules. All women, even plus size women, are shaped differently thus we wear clothes differently, so for now I live by the motto that "There is nothing that a pair of SPANX, a good bra and nice shoes can't fix."                    

Did he jussss........

Okay, I am a self proclaimed girly girl to the fullest. I have never really been into sports, sweating or anything recreational. Just the thought of seaty gym socks, jogging, sweating and wearing non- sneakers fashionable sneakers gives me hives. I will openly admit now that in middle school I was so against "dressing out" for gym and participitaing in things that would make me smell like a gym locker in my next class that I actually failed gym...Yea you read it correctly...I FAILED GYM! I actually had to spend the following summer in "summer school" for gym, and guess what!!??!!...I was not the only one!

I even played softball as a kid. My parents pretended that that I was pretty good and a assest to the team, but I was no dummy I knew the truth, I sucked and would never play another sport after that douting season of softbal ended.

While I hate sports, espcially participating in them...I LOVE watching BOXING and I am a Floyd Mayweather HATER! Yep..I said it, but this last fight was awesome! Usually we must endure all the rounds of the fight and anxiously wait while the judges tally up the scores, but over the weekend the world actually got to se a stone cold knock out and it was AWESOME!

Hair Update...

Yes! Divas, I am still a natural beauty. As I have mentioned before *just in case some of you doubted me* I will never go back to a relaxer. Although life as a mom has distorted my usual hair routine, I still know that my hair is much healthier than it was when I was addicted to the hair crack back in the day. This coming October I will have officially been natural for a total of eight years and I do not regret it one bit.

Today, my newly revised routine has consisted of a wash once a week and protective styles*SOMETIMES* wink..wink.. Pictures coming soon!!

Stay Tuned...

Baby Brooke's Debut!

Brooke- Danielle was born Feb 25, 2011 @ 2:33am, she has been a gift to two very confused, excited...did I say confused....parents. She keeps us on our toes at the weeeeee hours of the morning and that precious little one has us wrapped around her fingers soooooooo tightly*especially daddy!* that we both cannot imagine exactly what we were doing before she came along. While we both already had goals that we wanted to reach, she alone @ 8lbs 11.5 ounces, after TWO DAYS IN LABOR, NO MEDS, on 2-25-11 gave our goals new meaning! Everything that we do is for her and I nEvEr in a million years thought that my little bugger would mean so much to me but she does and EVERYTHING that I must endure and sacrifice from 2-25-11 on, is worth it.

If you do not have a kid I am certain you do not understand and you have probably moved on to the next post by now...oooorrr you are rolling your eyes as you read, but trust me someday you will understand and it is FANTASTIC diva!

Public Service Announcement and TMI: While I do love my little one more than anything...even red bottom heels...I must say that divas Brooke is enough for now so with my Mirena Birth control in place for five years I salute  all of the home makers, and bearers of multiple children...hunni that is not ME! Dueces!!
