On My Way To The Keys

Guest post written by Derick Burks

I made sure to drop all of my bills in the mail ( including my clear internet service) payment before we left on vacation. We are going to be gone for a whole two weeks. I have been waiting for this moment for the last several years. It really has been about three years since the last time that we went on a vacation. My husband’s job is pretty demanding. He hasn’t felt like he could leave and the business operate the way that it should for the last couple of years. Now, he feels like everyone is trained well enough that we could go on a family vacation. We are heading to Key West, Florida. I have never been to the Keys and my children haven’t either. My husband has been a couple of times fishing. He also has a friend who is letting us borrow their house and boat down there for the next two weeks. I know that it is going to be super fun and relaxing. I just can’t wait to be sitting at the edge of the water with a margarita in my hand and watching the waves! How relaxing!

Fashion To Figure Review

Fashion to Figure is a plus size fashion site that offers plenty of variety for women of substance. I recently got a chance to review a dress from their site and found myself pleased with the purchase. I am always on the lookout for places to buy plus sized clothing....I want to be large with STYLE....not Muumuus. At Fashion to Figure I found many options for the picky dresser from maxi dresses to jersey shirts with rhinestone buttons. They also offer the basics.

My dress is no longer offered on the site, or I would show you a picture. It's a glittery, lightweight strapless dress with some great draping fabric....perfect for a summer night. My only complaint with the dress is that the gold glitter now sparkles everywhere in my house....but I've never had such a glittery dress before....it may just be that that kind of fabric does that.

You'll find yourself contemplating styles you might never have thought of before when you visit their site. I tend toward simplicity....and by that I mean I'm a chicken when it comes to being stylish....so this site was an eyeopener. They have neons and polkadots, boleros and kimonos. They also have plenty of fashion jewelry to accent your outfit.
