Mamma Mia - The Movie

The movie Mamma Mia movie is based on the musical and the music of Swedish band ABBA
Starring Meryl Streep ( who we all have a fashion fondness since The Devil Wears Prada )
Amanda Seyfried
Christina Baranski ( from my hometown of Buffalo, N.Y.)

It's just a Summertime movie of frolic fun. It's not a deep pensive movie - I don't think it was meant to be. Hey, it's Summer when life is free & easy.

Sophie - the girl getting married the story centered around , looks adorably healthy .
It was wonderful to see one of the Hollywood's youth that looks normal
and not like one of the Olsen twins.
No bones about it!

What I really enjoyed was the visual aspects of the movie.
Vibrant gleaming colors of the beautiful Greek landscapes.
The water was beyond the bluest blue.

The the background cast also reflected a range of hues.
Very reflective of Greece.

EASY BREEZY SUMMER LOOKS

The outfits wore by the character Sophia were super cute !
Her tops were embroidered peasant
style wore with rolled up jean shorts and sneakers!
Even the background players were wearing sneaks !
-- Sneaks with flossy short shirts
-- Sneaks with long flowing dresses
So comfortable and causal.
The wedding party seemed to be wearing light colored shapeless sheer nightgowns over lace camis.
To produced a more shapely garment -- pastel ribbons were tied at the waist.
What a simple Summer idea !
I think I am going to try that look!

The outfits were all CURVYGIRL FRIENDLY

Right now , I am researching how you the CURVYGIRL can re-create some of the outfits of the movie.
I am NOT talking about the flashback 80's deals!
