BET Awards Fashions Loves and Fails

I really enjoyed the BET Awards last night.  I wished Chris Rock would have made a few more jokes, but in all it was a good show. The red carpet was full of fashion loves and fails.  I was tweeting all night about that as well as some of of my fav and and awful parts of the show.

Here are my loves:


I am not a fan of Amber Rose, but this form-fitting elegant white dress is gorgeous.  She nailed her look!

Mamanista Friday: Jean Shorts . . .or Polka Dots

Mamanista Friday challenge was for jean shorts.  I have a plent of jean shorts.  I purchased a bunch from Macy's right before I realized I was preggers.  So I haven't been able to wear them yet.  Well, i moved and cannot find not one pair of shorts!  I have searched and searched but all I could find was this polka dot rumper.  So here is my only shorts outfit I could find!

Mamanista Fridays: Tunics

Today's challenge is to style a tunic.  The great thing about most tunics is that they are already so fancy and pretty, it doesn't take much styling to look amazing. 

Here is my my look:

 Top: Thrifted, Pants: Baby Phat, Bag: Shoe Dazzle, Accessories: Verona, Shoes: Nine West

CurvieBirdie Watch; Melissa McCarthy

Well, this curvie diva is doing it again!  She will be launching her own fashion line!  I am super excited about her doing something as big as this.  One thing that I did not know about this CurvieBirdie is that she studied clothing and textiles at Southern Illinois University (Yes, I'm an Alum too!)  So she well be very vocal in this collection. 

The reason why Melissa decided to start the line is because she was turned down by 6 famous designers that refused to dress her for award shows.  So sad that designers won't step up for a challenge.  Also, she is tired of shopping and only finding frumpy items to choose from.  I know the feeling honey!  Can't wait to see what she comes up with!


Are you excited to see her new collection?  Would you buy a piece if the price is right?

Mamanista Fridays: Graphic Tee

i am so not the Tshirt chic.  I only own a few, and I just throw them on around the house.  This weeks challenge is Graphic Tees.  So I'm digging though all my top trying to find a tee that would go well with this challenge.  Well I come across my Tshirt from Halloween 3 years ago when I was part of the group Run DMC.  That shirt is kinda hot, so I decided to try it out for this challenge.

Jacket: Lane Bryant, Tee: Made w/tee from Old Navy, Pants: Macy's, Shoes: JustFab

Morgan Monday: Pool Time!!

This weekend, I took my poo poo Morgan to her first swimming class at the YMCA.  She loves bath-time, so I just assumed that she would enjoy the pool as well.  I had been looking forward to this all week!
