My First Purchase from JUSTFAB


I am a major Kimora Lee Simmons fan! I am all about female moguls and fashion so Miss Simmons is right in line with my favorite things. She is in the top ten of my faves (of course Oprah is number one). After watching the series premier of House of FAB on the STYLE network, I logged onto JUSTFAB.com and signed up immediately. The website is very well organized and full of great affordable fashion. You can get bags, accessories, apparel from some of the hottest celebs and of course SHOES! Now, as a plus sized, big footed gal, I am limited to my purchases, but that doesn’t stop me from spending cash on great finds including the 2 bags I grabbed for my first purchase. 
The Dynasty and Sangria are lovely high style purses great for the stylista with a multifaceted lifestyle. Sangria is a more professional bag with optional shoulder strap and many compartments for storing personal information, electronics and anything your heart desires. The beautiful color and chic lines make it great for a pop of color and added sophistication to your work wardrobe. Dynasty has python and bamboo accents which give this bag a casual chic look great for the boho or ethnically fashion forward diva. This bag also has several pockets and zipped sections for organization and protection of valuables. Both bags appealed greatly to me because both bags suit my personality to a T.
Since signing up for the VIP Perks, I have racked up a huge wait and wish list along with 60 points which frequent shoppers can use to redeem fabulous freebies! Each month, JUSTFAB creates a boutique of products they feel I would like based on my initial answers to the quiz you have to take when you sign up for an account. You can also rate items on the site to help refine your boutique list. The results are just amazing. I love everything I have seen so far. If you can’t already tell, I am quite impressed with my online shopping experience. I am also impressed with my products in person. I vlogged all about them on YouTube. The video is below. Check it out!

If I had any complaint about the site it would be that I wish they had more for those of us who wear sizes 12 and up in shoes. We big footed gals like to look hot as well. Additionally, with all of the amazing plus sized clothing out there, I would love to see some clothing in that way on JUSTFAB as well. Hopefully, this will come in time. For now, I am enjoying what I can wear and I look forward to showing you my next purchases! until next time ladies, stay FABulous!

My New Prabal Gurung Bag

February 10th, designer Prabal Gurung released his line for Target with limited items sold in stores and online. I have been obsessed with this designer for over a year now. I just love his use of color, original textiles, his bold prints and signature use of black to accentuate a woman’s figure. I vowed to purchase the tote bag as soon as the collection dropped and despite the 12 hours blackout which resulted from a blizzard that his Massachusetts that same Sunday, I managed to purchase my tote bag on Target’s website. The bag has all of the elements that I love about Prabal Gurung. The black straps represent his strategic use of black, the beautiful custom make printed textile, the vibrant colors and classic modern lines of this tote bag make it EVERYTHING! I can’t wait to be in a position to wear his clothes because I am going to turn it out! In the meantime I have this great bag as motivation. Check out my video on YouTube where I gush all about this great online purchase.


As I said before, this bag is an online exclusive, so If you love it, save your gas and just log onto Target’s website to purchase it. For the in store only releases, check your local Target for availability.
