DOTD: Stylish Lady on A Budget (1)

Hola Divas….
Today I decided to draw inspiration form a set that a friend of mine created a while ago. I wasn’t sure if I could pull it off but I loved the look today (only in the pictures I am SERIOUSLY bloated… being a woman sometimes sucks). But I still love this look. I did have to tweak it a bit because of shoes and well the desire to wear tights… But end of the day… I love love love this look… bloated or not….

I wished I had taken the pictures in the morning… but hey… hindsight.

Today wasn’t a bad day… but because I am all “girl-timing” I am weak and exhausted and just plain BLAH!!! Also, I have a little pain returning in my stomach… I have to stop BSing and go get my lady parts checked… pronto.

Anyway… it’s almost Chrismas… are you ready? lol… I most certainly am NOT!!! Let’s discuss… lol

Stylish Lady On A Budget by adoremycurves featuring coral pumps

DOTD: Golden Coral (not orange)

When I asked my BFF (Diva Dawn) what color I should wear yesterday... she said Coral. She stated that I've worn just about about every color, but she doesn't recall me wearing coral. And you know... neither do I. Yesterday, however, I never left my house nor did I get dressed. So here is coral outfit....

And used 4 colors on the eyes... used red in the far corner crease... i love how it turned out...

DOTN: Mini Me and my night out!!!

Here is my first DOTN (Diva of the Night) and  MY FIRST NIGHT OUT IN 4 MONTHS!!!! (without my husband)... not that I don't enjoy my husbands company... but sometimes... you just need that night... with the girls. Or in this case... with the girl. More about my evening below.

Outfit Breakdown:
Bottom Banded Top: Wal-Mart
Lace Strap Tank: Newport News
Soho Mini: New York & Company

Tights: Silkies

Boots: White Mountain/DSW

Earrings: Flea Market

So we started the evening at my friends house doing makeup and generally chatting. I sipped on something alcoholic to get the night moving. We finally make it out of the house and went to Azul 17, a Mexican Restaurant Lounge in Columbia, MD. We were pretty disappointed in this location because the website indicates that they have a DJ after 10pm. But the "DJ" is generally a computer that is running itunes and playing latin songs. NO ONE is dancing... the "Lounge" is the bar area, where we sat for 10 minutes un-noticed/ignored. We momentarily thought there was more to the restaurant than there was... we then found out... NOPE... that was it. So we left.

We headed to Baltimore to go to Latin Palace which never leaves me bored and I always get to dance. Unfortunately, as this is the first nice Saturday night where weather is not a problem, EVERYONE must have had the same idea... because valet had no room for my vehicle. *ooooh sadness starts to set in at this point*

Finally, we go further up Eastern Avenue and go to Carlos O'Charlies... PAY DIRT... music... dancing... and Patron shots (that we didn't pay for... BONUS!!!). We sat around... drank... danced... chatted with nice gentlemen... and one very vocal woman (who told me I looked awesome... extra BONUS!!!)

So in general... we turned lemons into lemonade... and I want to take a minute to tell my friend Diva Jordann... You are a DIVA... you are BEAUTIFUL... even without trying... I know you don't always think so... but I see a light in you that I hope one day you see in yourself... **kisses**

You also had on fabulous boots!!!

Here we are being silly!!!

I hope everyone else had a great weekend!!!

DOTD: Wa Wa Wa Watch me move!!!

Today I am working from home. And because of that... my DOTD (diva of the day) is  based on one of my Fav singers... FeFe Dobson. I'm not saying that this is how she dresses, I just think if she was a Curvy Diva... she would do something like it but far more RISKY... This is cute, comfortable, and I think... SEXY.
Also, this is my first time taking pics all by myself. I used a shelf in my house... I think they turned out okay. Still prefer when hubby takes them though. **blushes**
So... as always... OPINIONS?!!
