Favorite Styles of the Week

I feel like I was in style heaven for a week or so. Instagram was the culprit and should get life! 

No but seriously there was a high amount of serving greatness this week and I need to share. Just in case you missed it.

Angela Simmons

A few days ago, Angela Simmons posted this picture on her personal page. I had to gasp for air. The pants gave me life and to match with leather and red. Perfect, wouldn't you say? Not to mention Angela is like a serious fashionista. HELLO!! Her aunt is Kimora Lee.

Nadia Aboulhosn

OMG the love I have for her is so real! As a genuine person, she is amazing. Her style just adds to the love. She's rocking a Rue107 dress and honey that leg is sending a message to the world! Its flattering and lets everyone know summer is coming. Let's show some skin!

LaLa

MORE LEG!! LaLa looks stunning in this all black attire and is definitely giving the world something to look at. It's so simple as far as color but it still brings the "Look At Me" factor.

What do you think? Let me know!

Bee's Personal Style Facts

If you've been reading Stylish Proportions since the beginning, you may have noticed a few traditional trends within my style. Some more obvious than others. I definitely wanted to bring them out to you to show what most of my styles are centered around. Let's take a look

- The Bigger the Earring , the Happier I Am

It's no secret that I love big earrings!! I always have them on and it's sort of hard for me to step away. I love them, what more can I say. I noticed that they bring out something in my appearance and I just stick with them. I know that the bigger, the bolder and I just love what that does for me. 

You should see what I act like when I see some big statement earrings! Love at first sight might be an understatement.

-  I Do Not Wear A Lot Of Make-Up

Make-up can be very fun. I love watching YouTube tutorials all the time. For me personally, I'm not sure if I have enough patience for me to do it myself on my face (LOL). I have my own staple products I use, however, that does not include a foundation, concealer, blush, and highlighter. The most you may catch me with is eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, lip liner, lip gloss, and/or lipstick. Simple right. 

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not against full faces of make-up. I know plenty of make-up artists. When they need a model I would be in first in line and I will be EXCITED! I just know for myself what my hands can do, make isn't exactly it.

- No Labels

Yes, I am one with a curvy stature. However, I do not label myself. When I say labels I'm saying as to identify myself as plus size or regular size or whatever size you can think of. Why don't I? Simply because of whats in my closet. I can't begin to tell you how many different sizes I have in my jungle of fabrics. Some are plus size and some aren't. If I can fit it, I will wear it. 

I support all sizes in this world, never singled one out. I put myself in the middle and support them evenly.

- Clearance

Whoever said clearance isn't good is a LIAR!! I love a great clearance rack. A lot of my clothes are from clearance (LOL). Most of the time when I go into a store I will walk straight to the clearance rack first. You never know what good finds are there. The only thing wrong is that sometimes you may not be able to show where it's from because it was on clearance.

Don't be scared to say 'This was on clearance'. It's nothing wrong with it. It's not for everybody but there is NOTHING wrong with a budget. :)

These are just a few facts.
Enjoy.

Peace and Style. xo

OOTD-OOTN: Draped in White

It was definitely a long weekend for me, so many ups and downs. In true SP fashion, I had to end it with a bang. What better way than to get cute and dance. Yesterday, I went to a retirement party. Nothing but good vibes and family! For the event (as well as summer), I had a special dress made! This dress just brightened up my day!

All white maxi!!! Yesssssss!! I have been searching for a white maxi dress for months now and I haven't even been close to finding it. Eventually I realized I think I'm going to have to get it made. One day, I'm on twitter having one of my random outburst about getting a dress made and a good friend of mines Allegra, who has her own line, said "Let me see." She saw, gave me a price. I was ready! So yes this is a from Kre8ivly Twysted cutsom (Check out her lovely works).

I put the dress with nude shoes? Why? Well I knew the dress was already long so my vision was to have the POP factor on the outside of the dress instead of under. I love my shoes. They were so comfy! My shortness did play a part and of course the dress did fall to the floor. Not a problem!

On the left is the original idea of the dress. I thought this would be perfect because It can be formal as well as casual. That's right up my alley. Dual purpose is everything (LOL). I figured instead of the green, I'm coming with white. I wanted all the focus on the draping at the bottom while my top part seemed more subtle as well as the back. Oh here's my favorite part... 

POCKETS! I have a confession, I'm a little obsessed with skirts and dresses with pockets. When she showed me the pockets within all the draping, I almost cried! It was so perfect, visionary even. 

All in all, I love my new dress. Thank you so much Allegra! I could move, dance, twirl, skip and everything in this dress. Simple but it is EVERYTHING to me. The dream definitely worked. I couldn't have had better night. 

Dress: custom from Kre8ivly Twysted

Accessories: H&M

Lips: MAC's Heroine

Peace & Style my darlings!

OOTD: Same stuff

Living in LA you have to expect the unexpected as far as weather. This past week we had a us a good ol' heat wave and I was not prepared. 

As you can see by my face, I wasn't excited. I found these pants at my local Target store. Though I am short, I cant help but love wide leg/palazzo pants. Very spring and summer. Definitely on trend. Extremely versatile and not to mention comfortable. These were such a great buy, the print just added more to the look and they were mines. 

The shirt is from American Apparel. It was a clearance sale and I had already seen the shirt before. I found it so hilarious because duh, I have a blog (LOL). This is time for the fun shirts with creative sayings and amazing pictures. Let's all indulge, yeah?

Til next post.
