Get Oprah’s Glam Style - 9 Fashion Tips For Plus Size Women

Five days per week from your flat screen TV and once per month on neighborhood newsstands, Oprah Winfrey appears perfectly styled from head to toe. Occasionally for Red Carpet appearances, and no matter what her size, Oprah herself is decked out from in perfect glamorous and form-flattering style. Want to transform Oprah’s glamorous look into a style you can wear for Ladies Night, Date Night, or Special Occasions?

Enter resident Oprah Show fashion expert Adam Glassman to your style rescue! Glassman is personally responsible for the executive decision to use real women within O magazine’s fashion spreads and maintains involvement in all aspects of O’s monthly cover shoots. Most recently, he has worked with fashion maven Sarah Jessica Parker on the debut of her new clothing line “Bitten.”

Here are 9 tips on how to work with (not against) plus sized curves:

•  Dress for the size you are-not what you want to be or once were! Work with what you have! Own it.
•  Dress from the inside out. A well-fitting bra and shapewear will camouflage all lumps and bumps.
•  Clothes should skim your body, not cling to it! Think high-waist, wide trousers, and A-line or flared skirts.
•  Don’t cover your curves! Big clothes on big bodies only make you look bigger. 
• Skirts should end just before or under the kneecap. Your legs will look longer.
•  Shorter, fitted jackets will also flatter your legs-and waist.
•  Avoid elasticized waistbands. They might be comfortable, but they add bulk to your midsection.
•  Keep necklines open. A deep V- or scoop neck lengthens your neck.
•  A dress with a belt will cinch you in, focusing attention on your smaller waist.
•  Wide feet need to be counterbalanced with wide heels. A thinner heel only draws attention to your wider foot.

These plus size style tips are great guidelines to follow. Here’s a few more suggestions add to the list: DO try skirts that are designed to hit right at knee length, like the plus size pencil skirts. Also try secretary dresses made especially for plus size women. The built-in belt does wonders for creating the hourglass shape by accentuating the waistline!

Baxter The Most Wonderfulest Healing Dog In The World!

I would like you to meet Baxter! Born to heal and comfort! For his entire life he has been bringing joy and comfort to those in need, sick & dying. Sometimes the last friend they ever held.



Just last week Baxter left our earth October 16 2009. Prior to knowing this, Marilyn had a dream about him and awoke and asked me (which of course I could not answer but also wondered)...."Baxter gave so many lives comfort at their time of death, who was with him when he passed?"

I hope all of them - Rest In Peace Baxter, you will be missed!

The Beauty of Marriage - A Happy Tale

Marilyn and I have been happily married for almost 15 years now and we wanted to share a few things we have learned along the journey (marriage and life is a journey).
First, why we wear our wedding rings and what the heck is that all about:



Mar & I have been asked many times "How do you two (yep some times people who don't remember our names call us "You Two") do it, you seem so happy together (and we are!)

 

1. Work on Your Marriage. Make it the number one focus of your life. 
2. Don’t Leave Things Unsaid. Say it but make sure your partner is free to do the same. 
3. Speak Plainly. When you say it, say it plainly and honestly. 
4. Be Vulnerable. Your partner can and will hurt you from time to time, they do not mean it! 
5. Accept your Partner. This is one of the biggest ones of all time!
6. Spend Time Together. Everyday if possible - this is one of the next biggest ones (and fun too!)
7. Make Time for Both Your Ambitions and Goals.You dreamed of meeting him or her now dream big!
8. Make Sure There Are No Other Options: Your marriage will work if you work on your marriage!

Bonus points if you start and live your life together with a sense of humor:

No Wonder Our Perceptions of Beauty Are Distorted

Feeling normal looking and not like a glamor model? Well, glamor models really don't look like glamor models either - take a look.



Love who you are!
