Women’s Plus Size Work Suits

admin — Thu, 02 Sep 2010 08:26:25 +0000

If your place of work requires you to dress more formally, and you really want to make an impression you can’t go wrong by investing in a good suit. However, trying to find women’s plus size work suits, is not always easy. Whether you are looking for women’s size plus pant suits, or want more of a mix and match work wardrobe, which includes a jacket, trousers and a skirt, then Avenue.com and Plus Size Suits from Jessica London and Old Navy – Women’s Wear to Work are three online stores worth starting your search on. Look for single breasted jackets, either nipped at the waist or with a looser fit, wide leg pants look good with flats or heels, and a pencil skirt always looks smart, choose one that falls on, or just below your knee.

For around $100 you can get women’s plus size work suits including a jacket, skirt and pair of pants to use as your basic work wear wardrobe. Choose black or charcoal grey items and then ring the changes with tops and accessories in different colors. If you have read more of my blog you will know that I am a big fan of accessories and use them often to change the look of an outfit. Invest in cheap silky scarfs in a variety of colors, a few chunky necklaces and chunky bangles add a splash of color, instead of a briefcase buy a couple of roomy totes, one black and one in a color which complements your other accessories. Depending on your work place dress code you can go for muted tones or show off your personality with brighter colors. The main thing to remember is, if you want to be taken seriously, dress smart not flashy.

admin — Mon, 30 Aug 2010 11:24:14 +0000

In honor of the lovely Amber Riley, Mercedes from Glee, whom looked fabulous in a beautiful white grecian gown at the Emmy’s this Sunday, I have chosen a couple of similar plus size evening gowns to show you. Both of these fabulous frocks are available in a large variety of colors, including white. White is not just for wedding dresses, team it with metallic accessories in gold, silver, pewter or bronze for a really cool look. PromGirl stock some beautiful plus size evening gowns, suitable for Prom, military balls, weddings and other formal functions.

White looks great on darker skins, but if you feel that you need something more flattering for paler skin, go for a soft neutral shades such as taupe, peach, dusky rose or cream. Neutral shades have been at the forefront of fashion in the Spring and Summer this year, and ‘nude’ colors look set to be around all Fall and Winter too.

SWAK Designs have recently released a preview of their plus size clothing range for Fall 2010. Fabulous colors, prints and styles. My personal favorite is the Victoria dress, I think I will be able to dress it up and down, for work and for play. Apparently it will also be available in red/grey/black and teal/brown too, gorgeous colors for Fall/Winter. The Dynasty black dress is smoking hot sexy, perfect to see you through dinner dates, drinks with the girls and maybe even team it with knee boots and a bright jacket or wrap, when you want to dress up no matter what the weather.

Swak Designs really know their stuff when it comes to designing plus size clothing for women who want to look stylish and sophisticated whilst also feeling comfortable and confident. Want to see more of the Fall range then check out the YouTube video below.

I know that many plus size women like me prefer to wear something over their plus size bathing suits, especially when you are feeling a little self conscious, wearing a cover up is the perfect solution, because, you not only feel more confident but also look stylish too.

So it’s the Academy Award ceremony today, I’m really hoping Precious picks up something tonight, although I know it is up against fierce competition. I am so looking forward to seeing what Gabourey Sidibe and Mo’Nique will be wearing. Those two girls really show that big girls can rock fabulous frocks! So if you are inspired by celebrity style and want to find plus size prom dresses worthy of the red carpet, look no more! Of course the dresses shown here are also available in smaller sizes too not just women’s size plus, it’s not just us size plus girls who can wear fab celebrity style dresses.

If you want to imitate true celebrity style, choose an evening gown that is all one color. This not only elongates your figure, but often looks better on photographs, as there are no busy patterns to distract the eye. If you look at photographs of celebrities wearing red carpet gowns you will notice that the best dressed amongst them choose a gown of one color.

*Quick update, here are Mo’Nique and Gabby in their Oscars red carpet gowns. Congratulations to Mo’Nique for winning Best Supporting Actress and Geoffrey Fletcher for Writing (Best Adapted Screenplay) – Precious.

Here are some fabulous celebrity style plus size dresses to inspire you.

Plus Size Prom Dresses – with sleeves

admin — Fri, 05 Mar 2010 11:46:30 +0000

So at this time of year, many of you are looking for plus size prom dresses and one of the most popular styles are plus size prom dresses with sleeves. I guess this is because many of us hate showing off our upper arms, or as I remember, I was quite self conscious of my size when I was younger and preferred to be a bit more covered up. I wanted to look great but at the same time I didn’t want to draw attention to the bits of my body that I wasn’t so keen on myself. Infact at my senior prom a wore a wrap which my best friend fashioned into a shrug, it went across my shoulders then under my arms and was fastened with a blinging brooch at the back. This meant that it stayed in place all night and I didn’t have to keep tight hold of it, to stop it slipping on my shoulders. My best friend had a similar version, but because the fabric her wrap was made from was much thinner, she just knotted it at the back.

Finding a prom dress with sleeves, or any plus size evening dress with sleeves isn’t always easy. However I have found a few for you to take a look at.

The long sleeve dresses shown here are from IGIGI, who are one of the most fabulous plus size designers of amazing plus size evening wear, and PromGirl, whilst the shorter sleeve dresses are from Sydney’s Closet.

Of course, the alternative is to do as I did and wear a strappy or strapless prom dress and use a wrap or shrug to cover your arms. Some dresses come with matching wraps or shrugs, but it is easy enough to find one which will match or contrast with your dress. As you know if you have read some other of my postings I love to accessorize my outfits to make them more individual and show off my personal style. If you want to try doing this yourself then what better way than having a collection of wraps or cover ups that can add a little panache to your day or evening outfit. Sydney’s Closet has a number of different wraps and bolero jackets in a wide variety of fabrics and colors.

Below you will find links to a number of women’s size plus clothing sites that sell plus size prom dresses available in up to Size 44.
