Etsy Find: Megan Vest

Two Etsy finds in one day?! Sorry, I couldn’t resist. This piece features amazing electric blue (so charming, so rock ‘n’ roll), built-to-last serged edges, and quite the shapely neckline indeed. It’s available in Xl and XXL, and will certainly flatter those of us looking for something to flatter that hourglass figure.

Etsy Find: Polka, Anyone?

It’s not my first time totally stalking Missbrache’s Etsy shop. This dress is totally tea party, get-up-and-go, fun times at the ranch, and anything else that’s vaguely retro and ultra femme. You can find it in XL and XXL, and it’s beautifully designed to drape around your curves in an ultra-flattering way. Where’s my crinoline?!

Interview Garb: Missphit, Newport News

I looove these items I found over at some cool plus sites! I was recently looking for something to wear to a big interview, and I put this little ensemble together for something casual and yet refined. I picked out these flats for walking, and I’ll be switching into peep toes later on in the […]

Kimono Top

I’m in love with this Kimono Top from B & Lu. It’s ultra flattering, and it will complement most body types, thank goodness! I’m so tired of wearing items that I can’t share with my friends. . . I know this one with flatter women with fuller upper bodies and hourglass figures, as well as […]

Top Prom Accessory: Feathered Cap

If you need a way to dress up a formal piece with something funky, this black formal feathered cap could be the right ticket. It’s feathery and jet black, with an internal comb to anchor the whole thing to your crown. Embrace it and love it; it works perfectly with formalwear and is therefore great […]

Your Favorite Style City

I was tooling around New York City today, and I was thinking all about top style destinations. Today was pretty disappointing, in terms of fashions and the like, but I do have another destination that always provides top looks without fail- London! Whenever I need an injection of hipness, that’s my first stop over at […]

The Worst Dress Ever

I just tried on what I think was the ugliest dress ever. . . and I got trapped in it! Have you ever tried to shop in a “non plus friendly” store and have tried things on with rather stressful results? I pulled on a navy blue dress with snaps over the bust, and when […]

Musing on Top Fashion Stars

While it’s trule that I’ve been peeking at Cory Kennedy’s blog recently, she’s not really my “style type.” The matchstick figure, the devil-may-care ensembles that only work when you’re young, and smeared eyeliner to boot. . . not really my thing anymore, to be honest, but I was inspired to hunt out fashion icons on […]
