Curvy Con 2016 Recap

In June, I was lucky enough to make it to New York City for 3 incredible plus size fashion events: the Golden Confidence Pool Party, Full Figured Fashion Week, and Curvy Con! It was my first time at all three events, and I felt like I had died and gone to plus size heaven! It was one of the most exciting, supportive and beautiful experiences of my life. And Curvy Con capped the week off with a fabulous shopping expo, amazing panels, and great after-parties.

This 2 day event was created by the lovely Chastity Garner of GarnerStyle.com and CeCe Olisa of Plus Size Princess. I managed to snap a picture with them and my favorite side kick of the weekend Amanda from Latest Wrinkle between sessions!

A few highlights of this year’s Curvy Con…
 
First…the people and the panels! I loved loved loved getting to see so many of my curvy blogging sisters! Seeing them in person and getting the chance to tell them how much I’ve admired them over the years was just a dream come true…not to mention the parade of fabulous, gorgeous outfits!
One of my favorite moments of the weekend was getting to chat with Ashley Nell Tipton, who is coming out with her first full collection with JC Penny!

 

 

My fan girl meter when OFF THE CHARTS during the panel with Ashley Nell Tipton, Jes Baker, and Valerie Segun…and my smiles turned to real tears when they showed the incredibly powerful and moving video “Here I Am” that was sponsored by JC Penny.
There were so many moments like that during the event, that I am sitting here grinning while thinking back on them!
Here’s a cute shot of me and Georgette from Grown and Curvy Woman. I’ve been a fan of her for years and finally got to see her beautiful smile in person.

And I loved all the cute photo ops and backdrops throughout the space! This one was a favorite!

Best Plus Size Denim Jumpsuit from Eloquii

Plus size jumpsuits are totally having a moment right now! After a few false starts, so many retailers have found the perfect formula to fit and flatter plus size curves with innovative, fun and trendy jumpsuit designs. And all of these jumpsuits have led to this moment in time. THIS JUMPSUIT from ELOQUII is the absolute best version of a jumpsuit that has existed since the beginning of time. Am I exaggerating? NO. I love love love love this cropped denim style. It’s adorable and a little funky and totally on trend.

French Flair from my Gwynnie Bee Closet: Eloquii Hi Low Skirt

It’s been a while since I posted about my love for Gwynnie Bee and what an awesome resource it is for plus size fashionistas who want variety in their closets! But I thought it was time to feature it again, since there’s so much happening over at the “hive” and they are turning 4 years old! A ton of new lines have been added and the Gwynnie Bee selection is out of this world! {Check out Gwynnie Bee Here, if you’re interested!}

Eloquii is one of their recent acquisitions, and I am thrilled, since that line is on the pricier side, and I love having access to so many of their fabulous pieces for one monthly rate. This allows me to play around with many different looks and take chances with my fashion, without the financial investment…and without taking up permanent space in my closet! Here’s a recent example of a fun outfit I put together with the Eloquii Slick Scuba Hi Lo Skirt from Gwynnie Bee. It’s got a ton of French Flair, n’est pas?

The scuba knit fabric of this Eloquii skirt is heavier and you can definitely tell it’s higher quality. The under skirt is shorter, and the front panel is split to reveal flashes of your legs underneath — so it’s modest, but with a hint of sex appeal. Oh, and of course…for all of you pocket-lovers out there, there are pockets at the hip. Eloquii always runs small (I learned that from trying on so many Gwynnie Bee items!) so be sure to order a size up!

Classic Look with a Neon Twist: Sporty OOTD in Calvin Klein and Eloquii

What’s more classic than a black pencil skirt and a white top? But add some neon pumps, some quirky jewelry and leather accents, and you have a modern, fun twist on a classic outfit. Perfect for injecting some creativity in the daily grind of my office wardrobe.

Plussize Calvin Klein White Top and Eloquii Leather Skirt

This great plussize Calvin Klein top from Macy’s has mesh inserts at the shoulder and some wrap ruching details that walk the line between sporty and classic. And I absolutely love this leather panel pencil skirt I scored at Eloquii before they transitioned to an online store. The funky beaded necklace I picked up at Forever21 for almost nothing…and the neon peep toe heels were a great find from DSW last season. Who says fashion has to always be new???
