Cult of Cali Launch: What I Wore and How Naked I Felt

So, Saturday night, I was feeling a little foxy, sassy, and it was HOT!  Leaving my home, it was like 90+ degrees at 5pm, so I wanted to stay cool and be a little bit bold and playful! As I headed into Hollywood to celebrate the launch of Jen Wilder’s collection, Cult of Cali, I wanted to be playful, sassy, and cool (literally- IT WAS HOT!).

I mean, what the hell, if it flopped, I wouldn’t wear it again, BUT!  I wanted to step out and feel a little sassy, so here it goes:

Cult of Cali Launch: What Marie Denee Wore

I wore my Forever 21 Crochet Knit top I bought last year and paired it with an ASOS (straight size 14) skirt with the high slit.  For some reason, NO plus size designer or the items that are always converted to plus sizes NEVER bring the slit higher than the knee.  Give me MY SLIT, I say.

I am rocking my newfound love of a $10 strapless bra from Walmart. YES. WalMart! And I tucked my top into my bra, so the boobs were on deck, the tummy was showing and I had MAD leg out.  I rocked my Just Fab shoes- I think they were about 5 inches or so, but quite comfortable!

I also wanted a dramatic eye.  So I played with my L’Oréal Paris HIP shadow for a blue smoky eye! I accessorized with my new Bottica earrings (using my KLOUT perk), layered on the rings and bracelets, and my new Urban Expressions Red Clutch and voila- we have this:

Oh and for fun, here is a HILARIOUS Blooper PIC!

I wasnt ready and was adjusting the “girls” as the fab Monique from Curves and Chaos took the pics of me!

What do you think? Did I pull the look off? Skin exposed and all?

    This look is inspirational, but more that the look, your confidence is inspirational.  All the exposed skin is sexy and tasteful at the same time.  I will definitely be adding a high slit skirt to my collection for Spring ’13.  I hope this means we’ll be seeing more skin from plus size women.  Werk Ms. Marie!!! 

    • http://thecurvyfashionista.mariedenee.com Marie Denee

      Hahahah That I SHALL Matthew! I cannot wait for your collection!

    Girl, you are late on the Walmart strapless bras.  I have been wearing them for 2 years, and I don’t bother to purchase any from anywhere else. Their strapless bras are better than any I have found. They stay where they are suppose to, no slipping or wires gouging you. And the price is great.

    • http://thecurvyfashionista.mariedenee.com Marie Denee

      Yes, I am tardy to the party, but better late than never right???

  • Kimaada’s Kloset
