Trend: "Jasmine" Pant

Maybe we love these pants so much this season because as little girls we all wanted to be Jasmine from Aladdin...but whatever the reason they are fabulous. Pair them with a form fitting top & cropped jacket, and chunky heels for a NYC worthy look. I found this pair online at ASOS for under $40! They come in black & grey, sizes 16-22.

Hello readers!

I wanted to say thank you to all my readers & new friends who have been giving the Chic Curve so much love lately. As a new blogger to the curvy fashion scene, it's very encouraging with all you ladies providing me with so much support. I have also been invited to guest blog on one of my favorite blogs Outblush and will provide links to my blog posts there as they are published!

Basically, I love you all.

Readers to the Rescue: Pick a Logo

I need some serious help choosing a logo for this recently started fashion blog. I have narrowed down my typefaces to the above options. Won't you be dears are let me know which ones are your favorite and/or which ones you just hate?

Spotlight Love: Kristi S.

Classics: Oxford Heels

It is that time of year again ladies! Time to pull out (or go and buy) your adorable, lace-up oxford heels. Not sure how to wear them? Here are some ideas on wearing the oxford heels:

- Pair with scrunched up socks over tights or leggings for a European look
- Pair with textured, pattered or colored tights & a simple dress
- Pair with skinny jeans, and to add an edge, roll up the cuff.

(These oxford heels are from Nine West)

The Details: Sleeve Details

So H&M is one of the stores where sometimes you can find shirts & skirts that fit like a dream, and other times it's like trying to fit a bowling ball into a pinhole (thanks for that metaphor, Snookie). But this shirt, which comes in black & tan, is a dream. Its long (goes to the middle of my thighs, I'm 5'9") and flowy. Pair it with black leggings and chunky colorful heals. Perfection!

The Details: Touch of Sparkle Headband

Oh this headband is just dazzling. Don't feel like doing your hair today? Pull it back into a bun & throw this baby on. You'll be sparklin' all over town. You will start to see headbands like these popping up everywhere, just in time for those Holiday parties!

(Headband from Forever21)

The Details: Studded Sleeve

From afar, this shirt may just seem like your everyday, cute print top. But wait! Check out those sleeves...studded! Michael Kors takes a simple, chic shirt and makes it bad ass. The bottom hem also scrunches at the waist & is very stretchy. Very flattering & fabulous piece!
