Check it Out: Hotter Than July Curvy Girl Fashion Swap Tuesday, August 8th

Summer is my favorite time in the city, simply because of the events happening in NYC. I just had to share this upcoming event that will be happening in Brooklyn!!!


Sweet Roll Entertainment, a fashion events company that is “creating a fulfilling fashion experience for the contemporary curvy girl,” announces its second fashion swap for exclusively for full-figured women, size 10+.

“The Hotter Than July” summer curvy girl fashion swap will take place after work Tuesday, August 2nd at a location to be determined in Brooklyn. Like company’s first and successful swap in May, admission to the event is just a “sweet $16” plus a contribution of 5 gently-used fashionable clothing items.

In addition to unlimited clothes swapping, ticket price also includes curvy girl friendly entertainment and light refreshment for each guest. At the last swap, delicious desserts were served as an eloquent male poet recited poems praising full-figured curvy women. Word is there may be full-figured dance performer this time, while Linger Café serves a delicious menu or large and small plates as well as desserts. (Sweet Roll Ent held its Curvy bloggers luncheon there this past June.)

Also, in keeping with its “Hotter Than July” theme, ladies are encouraged to bring “freak ‘em” dresses (also known as party dresses) to this swap. Attendees will receive an entry into the Featured Item raffle for every freak ‘em dress that they bring. Raffle prizes include everything from vintage jewelry to body products made by full-figured entrepreneurs. Gift bags guaranteed with advance ticket purchase.

Check it Out: The SOBO Show - SOBO Mag's DEBUT Radio Show



Since 2006, SOBO Magazine has delivered when it comes to professional journalism. Started by husband and wife team of Christopher and Georgette Whaley, "The Dynamic Duo" has featured in depth interviews with entertainers such as Nona Hendryx, Omar, Grandmaster Melle Mel, Mint Condition, Nikki Giovanni, and Rahsaan Patterson to name a few. Now they take it a step further by bringing to the masses The SOBO Show - a radio show/podcast unlike anything you have ever heard.

From the pages to the airwaves, Christopher and Georgette continue what they do best and that's bring their love and admiration of good music to you, the reader/listener. The series premiere kicks things off in high gear with a very special show entitled "The Jackson Family Celebration", highlighting music from perhaps the greatest musical dynasty in entertainment history. What makes this show special is not only the music from Michael, Janet, Jermaine, and others but the fact that it falls on what would have been the King of Pop's 51st birthday, August 29, 2009.

So break out the Right On! magazines, the sequined gloves, the multi-zippered jackets, the LaToya headbands, the Janet key earring, the Victory Tour programs, and Michael's Pets because this will be a non-stop, stone cold jam featuring some of the best songs in the Jackson Family catalog!

Be there: Saturday, August 29, 2009 at www.sobomag.com at 7:00 p.m. CST!

[The show will also be made available for FREE download!]
