Mixed Up

When it comes to putting together outfits, pattern mixing is by far the most intimidating style to create. It’s really easy for this to go too far, so when I see items come out that do the mixing for me, I get really excited. The pairing of polka dots and florals creates such a beautiful, feminine look – the ladylike floral is taken to a whole new fun level with the dots. dress c/o city chic {selling out fast!} | heels & bag via valentino | similar affordable heels , similar

Olive this Color

If 2016 had a color, it would be olive. Everywhere you turn, olive is alive in bomber jackets, jeans, cozy sweaters and of course… dresses. When a color or a trend gets so saturated, I find myself looking for interesting takes on it – a fashionista has to stand out! dress via city chic | heels via sam&libby at target This plus size olive dress is a gorgeous faux-sueded that not only fits like a dream, but is so soft and comfy.

Summer is right around the corner and I don’t know about you, but I. AM. READY. Bright colors, shorts, pools and frozen drinks are all I can think about these days! I partnered with Gwynnie Bee to bring you guys a 3-look lookbook to inspire you for all of your summer adventures. The looks I put together actually form a perfect day (IMHO) – from your super casual morning poolside hang, to your mid-day lunch (in an ocean inspired tonal look) and finally a bright and colorful di

Back in Black

Ahh, home sweet home. This is my go-to. This is my happy place. This is the look that makes me feel like I own the world. It’s equal parts rockstar attitude and feminine and I could wear it every single day. If you remember last week’s post about being fearful of wearing a white plus size bodycon dress, you’ll remember that I talked a lot about my security blanket. Well, this is it. I wanted to bring it up to remind you that while I believe that it’s SO important to challen

Happy March, everyone! I love the first day of a new month – it makes me feel like we have a clean slate and a fresh start to make this month better than the last. It also means that we’re on the precipice of wedding season! Just like last year, I’ll be bringing you a wedding week (with a twist this time) – but for now, I’m sharing a look that is totally wedding guest appropriate.

Rule Breaker

I seem to be in a rebellious mood lately – because just like last Friday, this Friday, I’m busting up another fat girl fashion myth: “fat girls can’t wear stripes.”  The theory behind the rule is that horizontal stripes add width and bulk to the body – but that simply isn’t true. I’ve worn stripes here on the blog many times (so you know how I feel about that ‘rule’) but this dress from Eloquii takes them to a whole new level. Ill fitting garments can certainly add bulk to th

I’m such a sucker for romance. I love love! With Valentine’s Day around the corner I’m leaning more toward romantic, lacey, floaty, ladylike looks. When this one popped up on City Chic’s website I ordered it immediately. There’s nothing more exciting when you find one item that can be worn multiple ways. I didn’t anticipate it with this dress when I ordered it online, but was thrilled when it showed up and I discovered that the floaty fabric could easily be manipulated. Here’

Dessert Party

My friends and I have this thing where we go out just for dessert and tea. Those nights are some of my favorite, especially around the holidays when they’re peppered with gift exchanges, holiday preparation stories and general good tidings. Sometimes, our get-togethers are held at restaurants where we sample artisanal desserts, but sometimes one of us hosts and we all bring our favorite treat. I’m a die hard macaron girl, in case you’re wondering. I don’t indulge often, but

It’s fall somewhere! As I’m sure you come here for a weather update (and not just for fashion… right?) I thought you would like to know that it was 95 degrees when I shot this look. #commitment But I couldn’t wait any longer to share this look. I love it for a work-to-cocktails situation. For work, pair this GORGEOUS Nic+Zoe dress with some opaque tights and sensible heels (esp depending on your work environment) – but as soon as the clock strikes 5:01PM, throw on these se

Little Pink Dress

Make no mistake: I am, and always will be, a strong advocate for the little black dress. It’s a classic that will never, ever go away. That being said, I definitely don’t mind a deviation every now and then! I love this plus size dress from boohoo – the pink leaned more warm (perfect to go with my summer tan) and the neckline coupled with the perfect knee length made it a no brainer. It’s sassy with a hint of sexy and reminds me of something Princess Aurora would wear on a s

Cut It Out

Admittedly, this isn’t a look I rock on a daily basis. For the most part, I keep to modest, more classic lines. But every once in a while a dress comes along that’s a bit sassier than normal in a way that makes you feel sexy, strong and totally confident. The cut outs on this maxi are SO perfect. I love how they accentuate and draw attention to my waist, coupled with the vibrant orange tone and the great length – this dress is going to be my go-to for hot summer nights. And,

To say I’ve had a trying week would be putting it mildly. Between being sick and dealing with some family issues, I’ve been so thankful for shooting and writing for the blog to be a reprieve from everything that’s been going on. Shooting this look was a reminder of the sheer power of fashion. I hadn’t left the couch in days – but as soon as I forced myself to get ready and put on this dress – I instantly felt better. Powerful, almost. The draping and color walk the line betwe

I think everyone, while growing up, had that one show that defined everything they did. For me, that was Rainbow Brite. To this day, I can remember so vividly her creating color and happiness and beauty in the world and wishing so hard that I could be as amazing as her someday. Hey, gimme a break… I was five! 🙂 I swear I don’t mean to be showing you all City Chic lately, but I did pick this up in the sale a while back and just recently wore it on a date with Husband… it’

It’s nothing short of a shame that I haven’t brought out this dress before now. I received it as a gift from a friend around Christmastime, and I loved the fit. It truly is a wonderful thing when you have friends who know your style enough to know what you like, what you don’t, and what will push your boundaries. For the most part, I have a strict no halter tops rule. Yeah, they’re flattering. But, the strain that usually comes from the knot on the back of my neck coupled wit

I was raised on Disney movies. Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella… you name it, I’m obsessed with it. My love for all things Disney never wavered as I got older as evidenced by my annual passport and the fact that I’m at the front of the line for every new release. This week, the live-action version of Cinderella comes out, and I couldn’t be more excited. So, in celebration of the new movie, I wanted to share a look with you that is 100% plus size princess.

When Jolene approached me to do this collab, I’m pretty sure I yelled ‘YES!’ before she even finished asking. A Valentine’s Day collab with some of the hottest blogger babes on the internet? Um, yes. Allll the yes. And when she showed up to our photo shoot with quintessential pink and red balloons, I swooned. This Eloquii dress is the perfect combination of naughty-meets-nice.

San Francisco is a foodie’s paradise. You can’t go more than a half mile without running into some amazing local eatery that will blow your mind. We stayed in the financial district, so when searching for a place to celebrate Thanksgiving; I chose something nearby (mainly so I didn’t have to walk too far in my heels!). We ended up at One Market, and their special three-course meal was spectacular. I made it a point when I packed for the trip, to bring this gorgeous City Chic

On The Fringe

Sometimes, the best thing about fashion is trying on something you’d never consider wearing, ever. And the next best thing is finding that you actually love it, a lot. Thus, I present to you, the fringe kimono, Crystal-style. Kimonos are pretty on trend for fall, but typically live in the boho-chic realm often seen paired with ripped denim shorts and a loose fitting tank. While adorable, not my type of look. I decided to pair it with a body con dress that has a hint of ed

It was a sweltering 103 degrees last weekend while we were playing in Disneyland, so comfort was key. I decided on this fun Calvin Klein dress to keep me cool and straw hat to keep the sun out of my eyes. We spent the bulk of our time that day in Adventureland, which incidentally made my look like I fit right in with the scenery. dress via Calvin Klein {old, similar on sale} | flats via Crocs | hat via Forever 21 And of course, the obligatory “Hooray I’m in Disneyland!!” shot
