Plus Size Jeans

admin — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 14:10:06 +0000

Every woman needs at least one pair of well fitting jeans, preferably a pair that can take you from day to evening by just adding a dressy top and heels. Levi’s make some great plus size jeans that help to shape and flatter your figure. If you want a pair of jeans, that can be worn at the weekend as well as on a night out, then I would say go for black or dark blue wash. Wear them casual with flats, a sweater and skinny scarf, or dress them up with heels and a glamorous top.

Perfectly Shaping Boot 512™ Jean
This pair of jeans shapes and smoothes your curves while flattening your tummy with a hidden panel. Its higher-cut waistband with a deep V seam at the back, means these plus size jeans fit without gapping, whilst the boot-cut lengthens your silhouette. The denim is pretty stretchy, but if your pear-shaped, you might want to order a size up.

Defined Waist Boot Cut 580™ Jeans (Plus) – Sky
Levi’s have introduced this brand-new fit for women with a defined waist and curves through the hip, seat and thigh. It has a mid-rise contoured waistband which sits below the waist, following your shape to prevent gapping. These women’s size plus jeans widen below the knee into leg-lengthening boot-cut. I own a pair of these jeans myself and the fit is perfect, I’m a size 20S, and they are really comfortable but don’t stretch too much and so don’t go baggy around my waist and hips.

Fuller Waist Boot cut 590™ Jeans (Plus) – Blue Wave
Another brand-new fit for women with a fuller waist and narrower hip, seat and thigh. Perfect if you have an apple shaped body. The mid-rise waistband sits below the waist, following your shape, and fits just right through hip and thigh. Widens below the knee into leg-lengthening boot-cut. Reviewers of these jeans suggest ordering a size smaller that you normally wear, so I would recommend checking the measurements on the Size Chart before you order.

So what does a woman who is plus size, wear to work? Well here are some great value and good quality pieces to create your basic work outfit. You don’t have to wear a suit for work necessarily, by having a pair of pants, a skirt and a vest in either black or gray, you can use these as your capsule plus size work wear wardrobe. Just add a classic white shirt, a white v neck tee shirt, and maybe a white tank top. Of course you can also choose plus size tops of different colors if you prefer, but you can’t go wrong with a crisp white shirt. You will look professional, business like and sophisticated too.

We all like to think that how we look and what we wear doesn’t make a difference to whether we are chosen for a job or promotion, however, we have all heard the saying ‘Dress For Success’ With one out of ten people now unemployed in the US, what better time to make the most of your assets and show case what you are made of.

Take a look at what other plus size women are wearing in the workplace, browse through some magazines relevant to your industry, check out what presenters and reporters are wearing on TV, and keep checking back here for plus size work wear ideas!

Nobody is saying that you can’t show off your own individual style, as you know I love my accessories, and you can make a real fashion statement at work just by adding a wide stretch belt, a colorful fabric corsage, a chunky necklace, or a bright scarf or pashmina. These pieces are the icing on your corporate clothes cake!

Sticking with the plus size wear to work theme let’s take a look at how by using a few basic pieces we can create a confident and stylish look, using clothes and accessories to dress your style up or down depending on what is acceptable at your place of work. By using some of the ideas here, you can pull together the ultimate women’s size plus working wardrobe. Your main objective is to choose five basic items of plus size wear which will act as your foundation wardrobe, these can then be added to with accessories such as bags, jewelry and shoes.

Let’s take a look at the five basic items first. Every working woman’s wardrobe should include a plain color blouse, a sweater or vest, a jacket, pants and a skirt. Here I have used black as our base color, you could just as easily use gray or navy, or even brown. The accent color I have used for accessories is red, other colors you could use are purple, teal, mustard yellow, or a cool blue. When choosing an accent color to use for accessories remember to think about your skin tone. Does your skin suit warm or cool tones?

Plus Size For Women

admin — Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:35:34 +0000

So what exactly does it mean, ‘Plus Size For Women‘? If you were to take a look in any fashion or beauty magazine then you would be led to believe that any woman who wears a size 8 or upwards would be thought to be plus size. Of course this is ridiculous, but it appears that clothing designers are slow to appreciate that the majority of women wear a size 14+, and that, shock horror,even women who wear size 22 and upwards want to wear stylish and trendy clothes.

Thankfully there are some designers who design with the larger woman in mind. You may have seen at the recent Milan Fashion Week that Elena Miro was the only plus size clothes designer to do a full show. Take a look at some of her masculine designs below.

Yes, those models are plus size models (size 14), And of course the looks are perfect for work wear, so take some inspiration from these fabulous plus size suits.

Masculine influence is bang on trend this season, think vests, grandpa cardigans, tailored shirts wide leg pants. Add some attitude with quirky accessories such as ties, corsages, or statement jewelry.
