Jose Pagan Photo tour Ambassador Run

     As Most of you know if you follow me I am on the mission to become on the Baton Rouge, La Ambassador for Jose Pagan's 2019 Photo tour.  This means I will need 8 participants that will be in the area or lives in the area in January when Jose plans on coming here.  To do that I will need you all the secure your deposits by the end of November. If you are interested feel free to contact me at the email address on the flyer for more details. 

      The best way I can put it is a celebrity  photographer that is really talented is interested in come to our area let's get him so we can show everyone what Louisiana is made of. This is not about me being famous, because let's be realistic here it's gonna take a lot more then that.  This is about having a highly sought after photographer coming to Louisiana a place that is often overlooked to not just give myself opportunity, but also the other talented people in the area. It's not just a Photo shoot  it's a great networking opportunity.  Incase you missed it Jose Pagan was just named as one of the top 10 photographers in the plus size industry by none other then the Curvy Fashionista herself!

No New Year New Me

NO NEW YEAR NEW ME

     Hey you all are grown, and to be quite frank you can do whatever you want.  This is just my view on the whole "New Year New Me" point of view it's not written in stone there are no real rules to this thing we call life!

  

    This is going to be short and sweet so here goes.

    Last year you decided you were going to do amazing things THIS YEAR, is that right, please correct me if I'm wrong.   Realistically aren't you already fabulous and aren't you already on the right track.  You already have your game plan in hand so why wait please tell me why you are scared.  Is it because almost EVERYONE goes into the new year with the same plan and 4 weeks in more then half say, you know what next year is going to be my year this isn't going to work out.

    

Can I give you a piece of advice?  You don't have to take it but, I really need you to listen I'm going to give you my secret on how I finally started to see a turn around.  Slow and steady as it may be,  it's working and progress is progress!!  Stop waiting and just do it you know what you want you are on the right track just push and be consistent it won't be easy, but I promise all of those late nights will be worth it.  A very degreed self made sister told me that, and it's not that I didn't already know it; I just needed to hear it.  So I'm saying it to you and you and you so that you don't give up in 3 weeks and wait another year.  If you do give up you will just keep being stuck and discouraged!

You are already the you that you need to be to do whatever it is you want to do. Now put on your big girl drawls and do it!! 

No Need to be new just keep doing You....AND THATS MY WORD!

DEETS ON THE OUTFIT BELOW:

PANTS belk though I couldn't find them Lane Bryant has some simular ones here

The shirt is from Torrid, but its a few seasons ago and I couldn't find a dupe.

The Lady In Red

     You dolls and gems have seen the pictures everywhere.   I've even gotten 2 features since that Red Dress  shoot.  That darn Red dress, you can call me "The Lady in Red".

                       The back story

     So as you guys now know I am stepping back into modeling.  Well I needed to update few things, since dropping some weight, and in picking clothing; I decided what the hey, let's shop the closet! I do have to apologize.  I didn't get the picture, but the shoes I went against the typical, and I did black.  I did this, because to me red and black is a combination that dreams are made of.  I picked that dress, here's why:

1) its a favorite 

2) red it trending for the holiday season

3) I'm in the south and I didn't want to      burn up 

4) did I mention my curves in this hot  sexy yet classic number

  The dress is actually a convertible 2 way. You you can wear it front or back shoulders up or down or both. It's a floor length gown as well.  It is a bodycon maxi dress, so if you are shy its not the dress for you, but the boutique where I purchased do have other beautiful options. 

The jewelry is from Dillards Department store some I already hadas well.  They usually carry simular style pieces so finding something close should not be a problem.

As I stated I did shop my closet, but guess what you can still purchase her. The  Monroe Dress is everything. 

The Amazing Photographer Wil Norwood of @photoanomaly took the photos, Thank You so much Wil.

Until Next time Dolls & Gems 😘
