Sleeveless Dress Transitions to Fall

I found this dress today at SWAK Designs, and I think that this piece would be perfect for fall. Imagine this with a cardigan, with pumps, or even with simple flats. I like that is retains a little retro vibe that makes it more suitable for different work & play situations.

Are You Plus-Size on Just the Top or Bottom?

Inquiring minds would like to know. While I may wear an 8-10 on the bottom, I’m nowhere near “average sized” up top. I thought there were tons of people like me, but the more contact I have with the plus-size population, the less I believe that. Yesterday, at a mega TJ Maxx clearance sale (oh, […]

To make a long story much shorter, I was wrong. […]

5 Reasons to Love Gray This Fall

1. Gray is still slimming, but it’s not half as boring. Dress it up, dress it down–you can wear it just like black. The “slim factor” increases with darkness of the gray color itself.

2. Gray has depth, especially when you scoop up some fall pieces with a heathered finished.

3. Budget girls love gray because it […]

Perfect Jacket for Plus-Size Women

This Swing Jacket from Old Navy is such a perfect piece for plus-size outerwear. Sateen is so sexy and luxurious, but it has this secret side that’s perfectly no-nonsense. Princess seams are kind to bodies with a little extra around the middle, but not in an obvious way. What a perfect jacket to wear with […]

Sunday Round-Up

After a busy day, I’ve had some time to read my usual blogs and check out what’s going on. Without further ado, these were my top choices of the week:

Pretty Pear talks about Fall Trends. Gray is in, and it’s perfect for plus-size women. It’s better than black because it’s slightly less safe and can […]
