My opinion on Cheap Made Clothing

kiyonna.com

 I have a Boutique here in Florida (lushikcouture.com), but most seem to like inexpensive stores, which is not a bad thing. My daughter just recently purchased a shirt from a certain store the other night. I won't knock them, but what I will say, their clothing is not for women with extra curves. I say that, because the material is not of good quality. After a few washes its faded or rips! But on the bright side, cheap priced clothing will get you to where you need to go and you can look reasonable if you put it together correctly.
Have you ever stood behind someone or noticed someone wearing a garment and you can easily spot where they purchased it from?  Usually the fabric is so thin that you can see every dimple and thongs the woman is wearing. I believe that this is where this new trend started with the mesh. Women are embracing that see through look! I'm pretty sure men are too!

Now this where I flip the script! I was talking with a friend (male) and we were discussing fashion. He told me that he always loved taking me out or seeing me, because I was always put together. He stated that he went on a date with a young lady and he was thrown off the whole date, because she didn't look the part. He took her to an expensive restaurant and he was dressed to the nines, but she had on a very cheaply made sundress. Of, course I was pissed, because I was thinking, maybe that was all she had. He said no! And Corrected me before I could say anything. He stated that she had a job making over $80,000 per year. No children in the home. They all are grown. It's just her. She travels all the time etc etc. He stated that she felt she didn't need to spend a lot of money on clothes. His plea was, when you go on a date, your job is to make a great first impression. He shouldn't be walking you through the door and look down and actually see your butt cheeks and thongs. We got to have taste and class. I understood him more when he explained. It's okay to buy what you can afford, if its Rainbow or whomever.
What I do, I have a few outfits that are not that expensive that I got from Bealls Outlet (b4 i opened my store). If i'm going on a date, I have a few dresses that are expensive, some I paid full price, others I got on sale and I wear that. Of course I change it up with accessories!
Men are visual and trust me they do know quality and they know fraud as well.
As a boutique owner its very important for me to choose clothing that's of good quality. We have to show our little girls how a woman carries herself at all times. When you have more weight or hips it stretches the fabric. Remember that when choosing to purchase garments.

SupaThick!!!! STFW!!

I was looking at a video the other day, where this chick was talking about how she hates that men call

her thick when she knows she is fat!!! I'm like what the hell is wrong with that! I think that people are taking this label shit out of control!

www.urbandictionary.com

Per Hollywood, anybody over 100lbs is considered fat and If you are over 108lbs you are damn near obese. Ladies we got to take us back! Be who the hell you want to be and don't let anyone's opinions or status dictate who you are! Stop co-signing these men that are degrading other women or disrespecting other women, cause at the end of the day, you are what they are calling them.

Everyone knows when a person is called "fat" is usually to poke fun at that person. So what is it called when a person chooses to call themselves that? Just like I changed my blog name to "FatCilla!" It's what i'm usually called or if someone is trying to get someone to remember me, they be like "Oh you know who I'm talking about, Fat Cilla with two kids!" 

I say embrace the shit! It doesn't make you or breae up! It really depends on how you take it. You make others put some respek on your name!!!! 

Making Changes To My Life

So I'm at this pivotal point in my life where change is necessary. We get to a place in life where we say, "If I don't make this change my soul will die." Have you ever been there? It's like you set out to accomplish a goal. Everything from the beginning to the end is mapped out. You thought of ever scenario and you them embark on that plan. Then next think you know the rug is pulled out from under you and life begins to have its way with you. Then you are left crying, upset, and questioning the existence of our creator. You are alone and you have no one to turn too. What do you do?

Now this is the time where you see who can handle what? You may have someone try to drown out their sorrows with drugs or alcohol. You may have someone check out on life. You may have someone attempt to take there own lives. You may have someone take someone else's life. Most, either wither away and go into a deep depression or they fight for what they believed in.

See I've tried A-Z!!! I decided that i'm fighting for what I believe in!  You made that goal. Go back and look at your list. See what you listed, check off what you accomplished. The things you have not accomplished or failed at, go back and write down why didn't that work. Next, ask yourself "What can I do to make it work?" That's when you consult with God first. He already knows the answer, truthfully He should have been contacted first! But consult Him and don't give up. Keep pushing beyond measures, you will make it. CHANT: I will make!! (smile) You may need to look at your surroundings and see what's holding you back. Maybe your friends you had from childhood may not be measuring up to where you are trying to go. Put your faith first. You Second. Husband and Kids Third. Your Business next and everyone else.

I know must people would say no my momma or daddy is first or second. Your momma and daddy already had a good life. You cannot be nothing to yourself or your family, if you don't keep divisions out of it! Morally, yes you take care of your parents and everyone else, but you have a responsibility to  God, your spouse and your children. Therefore you become first,after God. You cannot take care of anyone else until you take care of you. That's where i'm at! In so many words, Fuck everybody else!!!! I gave them all that I can give!!
