Beija-Flor Jeans Fit Your Curves for Fall

Everything She Wants is thrilled there are more denim brands catering to the "real women" market.  You know, those of us whose figures more closely resemble Kim Kardashian's than Zoe Saladana's.

Beija-Flor "Amy" wide-leg jeans.
One such denim line is Beija-Flor (pronounced beige-a-floor), a Brazilian brand known as "the butt-lifting jeans."  And anytime I can fit perfectly into a size 6, there must be some magic in their construction.  The name means "hummingbird" in Portuguese, and the jeans were created by mother and daughter team, Kathy Moca and Emilie Whitaker.

When she was living in Brazil, Moca noticed how Brazilian jeans works with a woman's curves, instead of against them.  So when she returned to the States, she wanted to share that Brazilian style sensibility through the design of her own line of jeans made with premium Brazilian denim.  Beija-Flor is available in more than 300 boutiques nationwide and online at ilovethesejeans.com.

The secret sauce in Beija-Flor is in the cut: a higher-back/mid-rise front; no-gap contour waist; built-in butt lift; and memory stretch, luxury Brazilian denim.

For fall, the fair trade brand is on trend with a mix of skinny jeans, jeggings, and wide-leg/flares.  Flared jeans are my staple for this fall and I can't wait to rock my wide-leg "Amy" trouser jeans from Beija-Flor with a pair of wedges or flats.

Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater Comes to Brooklyn, June 5-8

Attending a performance of the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater is always a highlight of my arts and culture calendar. An engagement with this awe-inspiring and genre-bending dance company is even better when they perform close to home at the Brooklyn Academy of Music.                                                                                                                                         Photo: Danica Paulos Ailey’s long-standing relationship with BAM began in 1969 when the trailblazing choreographer established The Ailey School in Brooklyn and presented his company’s...

Memorial Day Summer Swimsuits in the Amazon.com Swim Shop!

Memorial Day weekend is right around the corner.   Do you have your new summer swimsuit yet?  If not, Everything She Wants recommends checking out Amazon.com's  Amazon Swim Shop . Me at the Amazon Swim Shop preview. The online shop is stocked year-round with trendy and timeless swimsuit styles, cover ups and swim accessories from your favorite brands. While I'm usually partial to the figure-flattering tankini, at a press preview for the Amazon Swim Shop, I noticed that the often unforgiving one-piece suit has made a compelling comeback. Thanks to a generous gift card from Amazon I took a chance and ordered a Calvin Klein one-piece in a pretty nude/coral "Sand" color, along with several bohemian tunics. Now here's your turn.    One lucky reader will receive a promo code for $100 to spend at the Amazon Swim Shop (qualifying items must be sold and shipped directly by Amazon and not a third-party seller). Here's how you can win ( you must comp...
