Project Confidence

Friday, August 18, 2017

Hey all!

Today's post is gonna be a little more personal than most. I came across Dia&Co talking about confidence and stepping out of your comfort zone by trying fashion styles you might be too afraid of.

Dia&Co is a monthly subscription service box where you get a curated box of fashionable clothes from a stylist that works with you to cater to your specific style! Not only do they challenge each other and their clients to not feel like they are stuck in a box of certain clothing they are allowed to wear, they have challenged me as well. I decided to share with you an outfit that is outside of my comfort zone.

When facing my fashion fears and wearing something that I might be too afraid of I couldn't think of anything at first. It is rare for me to find a clothing trend I don't try because I don't think I can rock it. But when I thought about it some more I realized that there is a lot I haven't tried or that I won't because it might make other people stare at me in a way that is judgmental.

When I was in high school I would never wear something like this let alone buy it from a store. I wore the same 5/6 styles of clothing and I never wore anything too revealing until maybe this past year. I would wear anything that hid my curves and was flowy or baggy enough to not show my stomach. The older I got the more daring my style has become and the more my confidence has grown because of testing my own limits of what makes me comfortable.

I chose to wear something really form fitting. That hugs all my curves that I used to hate but I now have accepted them as a part of me and want to show them off proudly! I found this dress from GS Lovesme and knew it was perfect with this post. It is off the shoulder which is great because I love my shoulders. I paired it with a statement necklace, agate stone bracelet, and some fun tassel earrings. I pulled my hair back because my shoulders were the focus and put on some laser cut heels to finish the whole outfit.

I really enjoyed doing this post and hope to do more like this in the future!

For The Love of Blush Ft. GS Love

Friday, August 4, 2017

Hey all!

So this week my boyfriend is visiting me and we have a whole weekend of fun planned together. I'll probably be posting about it on Instagram and other media's. Yesterday we caught up with another friend of mine and went to this amazing donut place called the Fractured Prune if you're in the Glendale area you need to try it.


I got a few items to do some full outfit posts in certain brands clothes to focus more on them and what I think about their clothes. Today's post is about this company I came across called GS Love on Instagram from some other plus size bloggers. So I decided I wanted to do a post on this shirt (its sold out now so I linked something similar!) and shorts as soon as I saw them I knew exactly the outfit I had in mind.

At first, I was really worried about sizing and when I am ordering from someplace new I have to take into account the make of the clothing and the reviews on items. In my opinion, I think some of the more chiffon type material is true to size if not a size smaller. So you won't have much wiggle room, and I'd get a size bigger for those type of blousy materials. But the more soft shirts or tee's they are true to size and roomy even. These shorts were a little tight but I like that they don't move and they're so soft and comfy.

I did buy a dress from them I plan on wearing soon as well. But overall I really liked a lot of their items on their website. They are so colorful and fun and way outside of my comfort zone which is perfect. I can't wait to try more! Stay tuned for the next post on GS Love!

xoxo,
Malori
