Yes, Valentine's day is right around the corner but every night should be a special night for you and yours. Now I'm not an avid wearer of lingerie but I do like to dress for bed quite often, even if it is for myself. And often there are those days when your significant other loves to see you dressed down, makeup free, relaxed and wearing your everyday sexy. Hips and Curves, Lane Bryant and Macy's all have great sales to achieve those looks.



Planning a weekend with the girls? Spending Monday night wind down with Netflix and the beau or simply a day of peace and solitude? Each of these evening sleep sets is sure to be a comfy back drop to your natural beauty.

Let me shout this out to the mountain tops. KURVY Brei is not a model. I'm sure you can tell from the amateur pictures that I've posted. It has always perplexed me as to how some women take such awesome pictures and mine always look blah. I probably should feel ashamed with all of the modeling and etiquette classes my mother had me take. I should be a pro right? Wrong.

There is a definition art and science to posing and getting that perfect shot. You have to master this ish. Depending on your height and shape there are sure fire ways to accentuate your figure and make it work. Below I've compiled a group of pictures from several Pinterest accounts focused on correct positioning for pictures. These photos should definitely help you little next time you decide to have your own or a professional photography session.

, I heard the same insecurities reveal themselves. Each of these ladies no matter the waist size or education, all had similar hang ups about their bodies. I was a bit perplexed. You often hear of talk shows producing segments about beautiful accomplished women with very little self esteem. But I'd never actually spoken to a pretty girl that felt un-pretty. 

One night while partying with the girls I overheard two young ladies chatting it up at the local watering hole. The conversation was very racy and controversial. You guessed it, hair. Natural hair vs weave. One young lady had a head full of beautiful, thick, black hair. Her friend, who I'm guessing wasn't a very close friend, was trying to convince the other to perm or install a weave unit. She was explaining how much more attractiveness her friend would exude if her hair was styled a particular way. The not so close friend began telling her how much men preferred women to look a certain way. By then I was livid and had to stop listening. 


We are more than our hairstyles or the bodies we adorn with expensive trendy clothing everyday. And conversations like that show the work that is still needed in our "dainty" community. No, there is absolutely nothing wrong with wearing your hair a certain way or a specific outfit to please a significant other. However, the thinking that evoked such a conversation is heard constant around the world. Daily women are taught to be pleasing to the eye. Yet, where are the dialogues teaching our young women to be and look pleasing to themselves. 

KURVY ETIQUETTE'S MISSION


In 2014 I want to begin dialogues and construct a plan to get women on track with loving themselves completely, without the pressure of pleasing another. It's my vision that women of all sizes learn to love and enjoy the bodies they are in. Of course, there is nothing wrong with change. In fact change is constant and needed in order to evolve. Who we truly are, how we perceive ourselves and how we evolve are my concerns. Taking the appropriate measures to ensure your complete happiness and body-esteem are essential to your evolution. The steps needed in understanding your worth and being comfortable in your body are the building blocks to sexiness. And from the mouths of several men, there is nothing sexier than a confident woman. Through motivational segments, simple applications to achieve inner and external sex appeal, and  a host of other easy to use empowerment tools, KEBB will inspire a movement for positive body consciousness and self worth.

Kurvy Brei

It's the first day of winter and I'm feeling a little frisky. And what better way to celebrate my woman hood than to slip on some sexy undergarments, let my hair down, and enjoy a glass of chilled eggnog. Within the last two months I've stocked my boudoir with colorful, sparkly, sexy winter tights. They are a great accessory to any dress or skirt, especially during this holiday season. Fun flirty colors such as mustard yellow, deep purples, and yes, even argile inspired patterns? However, my favorite thus far for winter 2013 are my semi sheer  black Just My Size tights. Every time I wear them I feel sexy and uber feminine. Now according to mama's etiquette rules my skirts should pass my knees. In her book that's how a lady should look while wearing a pair of sheer stockings or tights. Well, of course we do things a little different at KURVY Etiquette. Forget your mothers rules....well, some of them. Throw those awesome prints on your beautiful curvaceous legs and slide on that mini. Tis the season for office parties and family get together. The perfect tights will definitely turn heads when you walk in the room.
