Swapinista Atlanta 2012

 

Hey CurvieBirdies!!  This past weekend was so awesome!!  I did participate in the Fashionable Atlanta Blogger Style Wars at the Swapnista Atlanta event.  My category was Floral.  S/N: I must say that I did look super cute!! 

There were about 12 bloggers in the competition, and everyone looked fierce.  Although your truly was super fly, the winner of the competition was the beautiful Ms. Fly Won.  Trust me, she did her thing in the color-block category.

The event was at the House of Adrene hosted by the Two Stylish Kays and Pretty Girls Rock Dresses.

 

The House of Adrene has all the unique clothing that you won’t find anywhere else.  So if you are looking for something different, check at this store.  You won’t be disappointed!!

Color-blocking, tribal, accessories.  House of Adrene has it all.  S/N:  I should have bought this skirt and wore it as a tube top.  Love it!!!

Something to Chirp About: ATL Diaper Relief

 

Good day CurvieBirdies!!!  I wanted to take a moment and talk about a nonprofit that is near and dear to my heart.  ATL Diaper Relief helps hundreds of women in need by supplying diapers.  According to the founder, Ms. Kia, some women have to reuse soiled diapers because they cannot afford to buy new ones.  Well Ms. Kia saw the need and decided to do something about!!  Ms. Kia, we all love you for your courage to stand up and do what’s rights for these women.

Yesterday, I went to one of her diaper drives at Mighty Jumps.  At this diaper fundraiser, parents could bring their kids to play at Mighty Jumper for free if the parent brought diapers to donate.  This event was a success!!  I don’t have any children, but I supported this event anyway because it is the right think to do, and it was fun!!  This event was hosted by Ms. Kia of Atlanta Diaper Relief, Ms. Mimi of Lipglossandbinky, and Ms. Trina of Babyshopalic.

 

 

 

 

So if you are looking for a charity that actually does help the community and makes a difference in the lives of babies, this is the charity for you!!  Please check out Atlanta Diaper Relief website and find out ways you can donate to this cause.

My Favorite CurvieBirdies

 

I love that curvie women are doing their thing regardless of the naysayers!!  These women are beautiful, have positive self images, and are role models for All Women!!  Here are my most fab CurvieBirdie pics . . . .

5. Trisha Yearwood

She is a leading Country singer and a full figured diva!!  She has concoured the Country music world, now she is making southern cooking cook books.

 

4.  Ashley Graham

This full figured model is too hot for tv.  Recently, ABC felt her Lane Bryant ads were to “risky” for primetime.  Haters!!!  She has the perfect hour glass shape and has an attractive face to match.

3.  Adele

This multi-grammy winner Bombshell is AWESOME!!!  Love her!!!  She has broken all the rules in the size-obsessed music world.  No one can deny her talent or her beauty.

 

2.  Jill Scott

“Who is Jill Scott?”  I think we all know that now.  Singer, actor, mother.  There is know stopping this soulful diva.

 

 

1. Oprah

Oprah for President!!  She is a self made Billionaire!!  What can you say negative about Oprah?  Well whatever it is, it doesn’t matter.  This woman has done amazing things for many people and children.  She has launched careers, giving selflessly, and educated the children of 3rd world countries.  She is and will always be my idol.

 

 

These are all very women.  I respect each for the work that they do.  They inspire me to be a better me.  And, these are all CurvieBirdies making our world a better place. 

So do you admire these women?  Who would you add to that list?
