OOTD: Mister's Mother's Day Gift

Yesterday was my very first Mother's Day, and Mister made it a good one.  He made me breakfast in bed, bought me a beautiful dress, and took me out to dinner at one of my favorite restaurants!  Very fun filled and pack day.  He even let me take a nap while he and Morgan played!!

So, ya'll know I don't trust Mister to dress himself.  When we go out, he picks from the items I bought for him.  He can wear whatever he wants when he is alone!  Anyways, yesterday morning in walks Mister and Morgan carrying my Mothers Day gift.  It was in a Torrid bag, so I was a bit scared.  Here is what he picked out:

Something to Chirp About: Must Have Plus Size Pieces

It seems that most days when I got to work, my coworkers will say that I always look so cute and professional. When I go out, my friend tell me that I am always dressed to kill. Also, sometimes when I am out alone, strangers will try me how pretty i look and that I dress well.

One of the reasons why I decided to start this blog was for the fact that every woman no matter size should be able to look beautiful and wear items that compliments their flyness. So here are a few items that I feel are essential for a curviebirdie's wardrobe.

Torrid Plus Skinny Jeans
 
These items can be mixed and matched all together.  No matter how you wear them, you will always have a clean and crisp look!!!
 
So do you have these items in your wardrobe?  How do you mix and match?  Do you dress it up or down?

Weekend Style

Happy Monday Curvie Birdies!!!!!  I hope everyone had a joyous weekend.  Mine was not the best.  I learned that I cannot hang out in my 30s as I did in my 20s.  Momma needs her rest!!!!

Even though I spent most of the day sleeping Sunday, I did have a chance to get a cute outfit pic in.  The shirt was thrifted and it is very sheer.  It’s a bit too big, but I pulled the elastic band at the low end of the shirt up to my waist so that it would give the shirt a peplum look.  The black skinny jeans are from Torrid, and the metallic shoes are from Target.
