Crystal Renn (born June 18, 1986 in Miami, Florida) is an American fashion model. Renn started her modeling career in high fashion at the age of 14 after being told to lose almost a third of her total body weight. This weight loss eventually triggered a health crisis, causing her to reassess her diet and exercise habits. After gaining 70 pounds (32 kg) and re-emerging as a U.S. size 12, she was re-marketed by her agents as a plus-size model.

I understand if you have the body then show it off but damn. If you show it off at work do you have to show it off everywhere else too. Amber Rose does wear some cute things sometimes but she’s on my worst dresses list because she always has on the same thing: NOTHING! She’s either in leggings (my favorite clothing item), short-shorts, catsuits, or she wears in a super short Kelly Bundy dress. And she needs to leave that where Kelly did… in the 90’s. Like some others have said she’s a rose that wilts in fashion.

My favorite clothing item is the leggings. I love wearing my legging with my high heel, my high top sneakers, and my low top chucks. Being a plus size woman I wish that there was a bigger selection of leggings but I work with what I can get. Torrid is the place to go if you’re a sexy size woman look for some cute ass leggings. I’ve been to these other skinny women clothing site and they always have so much more. You manufactures need to make all those small size leggings in bigger sizes because if you do I guarantee that you will not double your money you will triple it.

Washington, D.C., native Taraji P. Henson has had an amazing transformation. In my opinion she is one of the best dressed actresses of our time. Here are a few pictures of hers that I really like. Taraji’s pixie cut and flirty fuchsia dress gave her the sass she needed to work the carpet.
Showing off her curves in this corset style black dress.
Always classy and sexy in a bright orange one-shoulder fitted waist dress. Perfect!
A wonderful ruffled halter dress with a free bottom.
In a late 50’s style grey dress with a black belted.
One-shoulder corset style top but a A-line bottom is perfect for her.
BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME…

After six years at Central Saint Martins, Scottish designer Christopher Kane launched his eponymous label with sister Tammy, a textile designer who runs the business end, helps with fabric development, and serves as the studio’s fit model. Kane’s spring 2010 collection was a disappointment to me. It look as if he took someone’s picnic cloth and wrapped it around the skinny ass model. Hopefully we will see better things from him in the future.

Johnson snagged a spot on the fashion map in the sixties and seventies for helming culty brands and heading up chic boutiques. She started her eponymous line in 1978 with ex-model Chantal Bacon. The two opened a boutique in Soho and sold Johnson’s dancewear-inspired creations, tapping into a punk-cum-Warholian aesthetic. Decades later, she’s still producing frilly retro dresses and kooky-sexy separates. While countless brands describe themselves as “flirty” or “sassy,” Betsey exemplifies both. The CFDA award-winner has licensed her name to watches, lingerie, and a Samsung cell phone, all of which can be found in more than 50 colorful, joie de vivre–filled boutiques. Some of her clothes I can give or take but I’m in love with her bags.

WHAT WAS SHE THINK?
Posted on: 12/07/2009
The fuck is going on here. There is way too much shit going on here. Honey, pick a theme and go with it but just one. It looks as if you were going to go punk-rock and then you found this “I LOVE PARIS” shirt and a preppy sweater and though; “What the hell.” Then you looked into the mirror and said; “Hey something’s missing. Let me throw this old lady scarf around my neck.” This outfit is so bad you couldn’t even look into the camera, damn shame. And where do the green earring come from? Out of fucking nowhere. BAD…VERY BAD.
I ALWAYS SPORT THIS STYLE…

The skinny jeans tucked into the high top sneakers are one of my favorite trends. I myself wear this trend quite often. It’s very casual but very practical. It’s cute because you’re showing off your figure. I have actually sported this same outfit. The skinny jeans, the tee, the high tops, and a jacket, it’s one of my favorite outfits. I look hella cute and I can still run around and do what I have to do with out watching my step in heels.
SEPARATES OR TOGETHER?

This style is very interesting, not many can pull it off. I fells a little dated but I still like it as separates. Together with the sneaker, it’s cute on her but I don’t see many women that can really pull these to items off together. Now as separates I think that they would speak to a lager audience. But I what she has put together is cute but not an everyday outfit. I personally would wear the skirt with the sneakers and another top but that’s just me. What you think?

I love this style. The lace leggings with the long top, is a trend that I hope stays. But when you add great pair of heels and a really cute vest the outfit has sexy written all over it. This is a great go out and get attention outfit. If I had it I would sport it every damn day.
