OOTD: Plus Size Bell Sleeve Top, Rockstar Jeggings, & Leopard Booties

By 12 Comments

Looking for an easy to throw on outfit that looks like you put a lot of thought into it? Look no further! This Bell Sleeve Top adds a touch of pizazz to a regular jeans and t-shirt look! And when you pair this with a pair of leopard booties, you dramatically up the fashion quotient!
Bell Sleeve Top Plus Size Outfit

I love that I work from home but it makes it really easy to get in a fashion (or maybe lack of fashion) rut.  If you’re looking to up your style game, I highly recommend adding a bell sleeve top to your wardrobe.  This black plus size bell sleeve top is as comfortable as any t-shirt you own, but definitely looks classier.  These Plus Size Jeggings are super comfortable as well and the raw hem gives them a little touch of edginess.  And what can I say about these Leopard Print Booties other than…I’m in love!  Seriously!  If you know me in real life, you know that leopard is my favorite neutral.  Yep…leopard is a neutral and can be paired with almost anything!  Isn’t that awesome?!?

Here’s what I’m wearing:

I’ve realized that it doesn’t take a ton of effort to make myself look put together, but it’s always oh-so-worth it.  I’m more productive, I’m not embarrassed when I run into people while quickly running to the store, and I feel better about myself!  If you’re in a style rut, I highly encourage you to add a few fun pieces to your wardrobe that will really up your style game.

Plus Size Maxi Skirt Worn as a Shirt #OOTD

By 19 Comments

Yesterday I shared how I wear a LuLaRoe Maxi Skirt as a dress.  Today I want to share how I wear that same plus size maxi skirt as a shirt.  This is definitely a non-traditional way to wear a maxi skirt, but I love the way it looks!

Do you wish your wardrobe was more versatile? Today I'm showing you how to wear a plus size maxi skirt as a top! No one the fabulous top you're wearing is actually a skirt!

How to Wear a Plus Size Maxi Skirt As a Top

It’s super easy to wear as a shirt.  Simply pull the skirt all the way up your body and slip one arm under the waistband.  The waist of the skirt should be on your neck and under your arm.  Once it’s laying across your body, you’ll need a belt it to keep it in place.  If you’re worried about showing more skin than you want, you can wear a strapless cami under it or just wear a regular cami under it and tuck the strap in. Voila! You have an awesome top!  Also, this is the perfect outfit for showing off a pair of statement earrings!  I love the way these Nebula earrings look!

It's easy to take a maxi skirt and wear it as a gorgeous top! Check it out!

Plus Size Outfit of the Day – Feminine and Florals

By Leave a Comment

Today’s outfit of the day is a feminine mix of florals and patterns. I love the trend lately of mixing florals with other patterns such as stripes, polka-dots or this great Ikat patterned top.

I paired this top with a vintage inspired pendant necklace and these beautiful floral shoes and handbag. This could be worn with these dark wash jeans, khakis or a light colored pair of chinos.
