The Feather Touch!



Hey guys, so this is a look I wore 2 weeks ago. My look I would say was actually really simple for my taste but I still decided to share it with you guys. So I wore black and white and add a little  personality with some dangly feather earrings I purchased from Forever 21. I absolutely love them!!!!I toned down the earrings by pairing it with a simple black bodycon skirt, a white button down a black skinny belt at the waist and finishing it up with a military style crop jean jacket that I got from Torrid like 3 years ago. I hope you guys like it!

FIND YOUR FIT!!!!


Hey guys! I told you I would be back and with a new look. So, on this past Sunday I showed a little more curves than I'm use to. And yes, I was the one that said plus size girls can't wear a tucked in shirt with a bodycon skirt but I broke that rule. I paired a pleated long sleeve black shirt with pleated front detail with a blue & black bodycon skirt. I accessorized with these design stockings, a skinny black belt to accentuate the waist, and I wore some lace up pumps (which are not shown in the photos. The main thing I wanted to address today was that just because you are plus size doesn't mean you have to limit yourself to the places you shop. A great example is the skirt from this look. Although Forever 21 now has a plus size line, this skirt actually came from its regular size line. Surprised???? Its really hard to find pieces that fit plus size women but its NOT impossible. You just have to know your shape and know your fabrics. I've been able to shop at H&M and Forever 21 both aimed towards the "skinny" type girl. The thing to look for is anything with a little give in the fabric, that is, anything that is stretchable. You may turn a regular size dress into an adorable top but work with what you got! Turning a dress into a top because of your size makes you unique because although you may have the same item as a "skinny" girl, the execution when wearing it will be completely different. You got to think outside the box!
