Eloquii Petites Review

Hey Friends!!!
I know it's been way too long and life just got in the way but I've got some fun things planned for October so look out for that because I'm really excited. So one of my biggest problems with plus size clothing is it's so long on me because I'm only 5'2 and a lot of clothes are made for taller women. So I'm always looking for clothing that can fit my petite size which brings me today's post. Eloquii just released a petites line and I have something from the line to review for you.

Fall Floral's

Hey Friends!
So I know I've been really MIA this summer things have been crazy for me. I'm trying to get re-inspired but I do have a few things planned for the blog so you can look forward to that. I'm looking forward to cooler weather because I'm so over the warm weather. It's still pretty hot here in California but it's cooling down at night. Are you ready for fall/winter?

Colorful Tribal Print

Happy Monday Everyone, I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend! I have a great and busy weekend. The weather here in California is so crazy, this weekend it was in the 100's and right now its so gloomy and it's raining outside. 

This is the outfit I wore to my friends baby shower on Saturday. It was really hot outside, like I said it was in the 100's where I lived but I knew where I was going it might be a little cooler. So I wore this kinda like tribal print dress. I really like this dress because it's colorful and I love the design on it as well. My only problem with this dress is it had buttons going down the whole dress and the buttons were popping out in some area's so I put small safety pins in the area's I was afraid might pop open. I learned that from one of the bloggers that I follow and I think it worked great, I had no problems with my dress that day. :)

I really wanted to wear sandals with the dress but I'm still on a hunt for a great summer sandal that I can wear with everything. So I decided to pair my black oxfords with the dress. I love this shoes because they are so comfortable. These were actually my school shoes when I went to school in the Philippines. See I had to buy black flats and the sizes in the Philippines didn't fit me because I have wide feet and there sizes run really small, I know you can't really tell in the photo's though but my feet are big. So I went to so many different places in search for school shoes but nothing fit. So I decided to go to a brand that had American sizes that I knew would fit me and that was Aldo, and I fell in love with these oxfords when I saw them. I haven't really worn them since I got back from the Philippines, so I'm really starting to love them again! 


Oh and this yellow sweater is from forever 21 not forever 21+, I got it awhile ago and before honestly I hated going to forever 21 because clothes never fit me but I would go with my mom because yeah she wears clothes from forever 21. At the time I was looking for something to wear with a dress for an occasion and I would have never thought to look at forever 21 because back then they didn't have the faith line or the forever 21+ line at the store near me. But while my mom was browsing she store she found this sweater and said it looked like it would fit me and at first I didn't want to try it on because I thought oh it wont fit me. But my mom convinced me to just try it on and I was so surprised that it fit. It just goes to show that you can't let sizes intimidate you, just try things on and you never know it might fit you. :) 

Have a wonderful day everyone! ~ Nina ~

Gingham and Winds...

Hey Everyone! Today was a nice day in California but it was pretty windy, those Santa Ana winds. That's why in the bottom you can kinda see the wind blowing my dress and my hair. 


My favorite thing about spring and summer is wearing dresses because they are so easy to wear. I really like the gingham print on this dress and I got it on sale too. I love going to the sale section to look for clothes on sale, which is a good and a bad thing because sometimes I get things just because they are on sale but I'm trying to change that. But I do like a good sale, especially since I'm a girl on a budget.

I'm wearing wedges in the picture but it got pretty cold later on in the day so I switched them to boots but I didn't get a chance to take a picture with my boots on.

Tribal Print

"I intend to accept my body today, Love my body tomorrow 
and appreciate my body always! (no matter what size)" 


Hey Friends! So today was a warm day here in California. So i decided to wear a nice flowy dress and to be honest this isn't my complete outfit. I actually wore the jean jacket i wore in my last outfit post but i decided since i wore that in the last post i would take a picture without it on. Which brings me to the quote above, I have always been uncomfortable with showing my arms. But I have been inspired by so many body acceptance blogs and things I've read on the web that i decided I shouldn't be ashamed of my body and just let my arms show. So this summer i'm going to start showing off my arms and not wear long sleeve jackets when it's 100 degrees outside. But of coarse i gotta start off slowly and this is my first step! :) 


So my dress has a little story and it goes like this, I used to see nice printed hi-low dresses at forever 21 but they never had them in the plus sized line and I don't fit in the regular forever 21 line. So I looked at other places and I could only find plain hi-low dresses in single colors and no prints. So I decided to make my own and this is the result, a tribal print hi-low dress. Its kinda big so that's why I put a belt, and i got the belt from a friend. Well that's my outfit of the day! I hope you're all having a wonderful day! ~ Nina
