Target is set to launch 4 pop-up bodegas in NYC on 9/11 just shy of NY’s Fall Fashion Week cap off.
The pop-ups will house a number of the new GO International lines, which in the past have been sometimey for those of us with something to hold on too…
Let’s hope they have a few things in size Sexy (XL), and Super Sexy (XXL)
How tweeked am I that she named her line “Pleasure Principle” ???

Pictured above with her partner in lacy crime Bruno Schiavi, an aussie boudoir wear designer. The line is slated to appear late this year (just in time for Holiday sexiness) or early next year (just in time to waltz in front of that super bowl game! Hmm… I wonder if there will be any tear away pieces?)
Now if I can only be this excited about size options…
Missed Opportunity Syndrome.
MOS occurs when you should have bought something but you didn’t, for a myriad of random reasons, but they all have the same outcome — you don’t actually purchase the item.
Today I am sad, because I do not own a leopard print wrap dress.
Like this one Monif C used to have in her collection
r-r-r-aaaawr!
I think I will go into my closet, listen to King of Sorrow, and weep…
either that, or make my own.
the jury’s still out.

Everything must go to make way for Fall/Holiday 2008…..
Hello to all my “curvalous” cuties. I’m the other “d” in this pair. Just call me dliteful. Before I start to post my own personal musings and observations about living life as a fabulous big gurl, I wanted to take the time out to share a little bit about myself.
Like my counterpart, dnyree, my love affair with fashion began at a very young age. I had the wonderful experience of growing up in a family of hair stylists or “hairdressers” as we say in the Lou. My mother, grandmother and aunties were some of the flyest, fiercest women on the planet and took “dressing” to a whole notha level! I was surrounded on a daily basis by women who were not afraid to express themselves through fashion. From my M’dear’s tangerine Halston jumpsuit to my mama’s multi-colored, patchwork suede hot pants with matching vest (yes, I said matching vest), the women in my family loved clothes and did not let their curves stop them from celebrating fashion in all of its finest. So, I come by this affliction honestly. And I’m going to continue to celebrate who I am and all of my fabulousness. As Zora Neale Hurston once said:
“Those that don’t got it, can’t show it. Those that got it, can’t hide it.”
Keep it thyck and sexy, ladies.
