Viva Las Velvet!

28 Dec 2011

I’ve been tearing through all of my clothing to put together that New Year’s Eve outfit of perfection. I’m guessing dresses are probably filling up some of your thoughts as well. So I put together a few plus size New Year’s outfit ideas!

Celebrating a New Year that awaits is about celebrating oneself!

One of my gifts to you is a secret…

Torrid is having a 70% off sale on all their plus size fashions!

Let’s bring in 2012 with some pep in our step. Enjoy!

I rule the land of procrastination. The funny thing about procrastinators is that we are not lazy people. We actually are pretty productive, because we will accomplish one-hundred-thirty-eight tasks. As long as none of those tasks are the absolute one thing you must be working on instead.

I kind of lucked out this year, as far as a winter coat is concerned. While it’s snowing in my usual place of residence, Salt Lake City. I’m in Northern California for a couple of months. Very much enjoying this sunshine. Thank you.

Usually, I would be without a warm winter coat until the night before our first falling of snow. Where I would suddenly rush out to purchase a plus size coat or jacket from the bottom of the pile. Ha….Ha. Not this year!

I hit the street of San Francisco to find the perfect plus size coat for when I actually do head back to the snow.

If you’re a last minute Molly like me, you’re in luck! Because we waited so long some of our favorite plus size clothing shops have mega sales going right now! Get your winter coat for half the price!

At Plus Size Steals we want nothing less than happiness and warmth for everyone this winter. Find a coat drive here, and take last year’s model to a coat drive near you! Spreading joy to someone who especially needs it.

Classicly Twisted!

26 Sep 2011

The minute that I heard Kate Middleton was “bringing back hose,” I wanted to kiss her royal feet. I don’t know about you, but pantyhose should be every plus size woman’s best friend. It’s my go-to fix for smooth curves, and legs.

I’m not going to force feed you all one hundred reasons why I adore this (apparently) outdated accessory. I will say, though, I’m pretty sure my eye and my thighs have fallen in love with this season’s tights. A more modern cousin to the pantyhose. Not to mention, way more spicy. Poppin’ up in every color imaginable, they are my must have, absolutely need, gonna get 12 pairs…Fall accessory. Just sayin’. Heh heh.

I think I just spent two hours fishing the web for plus size tights. Phew. Imagine sliding an Art History book into your fingers, now close your eyes, and open to any one of the pages. That’s what it’s like! There are tights available in any print imaginable! Okay, okay…I’ll stop ranting, and just show you my favorites!

 

Crochet Purple Leaf Tights

 See what I’m sayin’? That’s purple leaf print. Dreamy.

Aqua Diamond Fishnet Tights

 

The white is much more elegant, but still unique. I must say, Torrid’s plus sizes are always paired with the best shoes! These tights look great with an oxford, or even Fall’s hottest footwear…the bootie!

Avenue Plus Size Open Floral Tights (CAMEL,A/B)

I love the color mustard. It can be difficult to pair with if you aren’t accustomed to bright tights. Think earthy neutrals! I would love these with a tan or camel brown wedge.  Always remember…chic must be comfortable! :0]

Too Cute to Boot!

16 Sep 2011

I vowed to die of embarrassment if I ever wore these boots in public. Calf height suede, no heel, over poofed in fur with a beaded design on the toes. So much faux fur! It looks like I just slipped my feet into two foxes and started walking!

 Some people call them “mukluks,” but honey I’ve seen mukluks. They don’t have to look like this.

So they became my comfy lounge boots for lazy days at home. Cozy little pillows for my feet. My new winter slippers. Then, one day…I did a silly little thing. It all started with a trip to the bank, then the grocery store…it was all over from there. I got way too comfy.

This year, I’m doing it right. Getting my boots before winter is on the crawl. And I mean cute boots! From trustworthy plus-size stores! I’ve already found a few favorites…

Storm Crinkle Perforated Western Ankle Boots (Wide Width)

Remember, it’s still Fall!  You can get away with light colors for a while longer. Torrid, the wonderful plus-size shop, has some of my favorite finds this season!

Roamans Plus Size Rocker Convertible Boots By Comfortview (RED,9 M)

Think of spicy red to pair with neutrals.  Next time you slip into curvy black leggings, try a bright ankle boot!

Toya Dusty Grey Lace-Up Combat Boot (Wide Width)

 

Knee boots are hot, hot, hot this Fall-Winter. I’ve seen them gracing the runways of  Michael Kors, most recently.

A great way to keep your legs warm and add a lot of character to your outfit!

Tasha Black Suede Over-The-Knee Flat Boots (Wide Width)

To warm feet & stylish boots! Ta-ta

It has recently been told that Mister Marc Jacobs himself, is popping up with a plus size fashion line. In the midst of Fall shopping, I automatically went into a day dream comatose when I heard the word. My fandom crossed all sorts of double yellow lines. I saw myself stooped outside his New York doorstep. Hot chocolate in one hand. My life savings in the other. All the while freezing to death as I wait for the gem of all winter dream coats.

Then I slapped myself out of it.

See…there are some “knock em’ dead” trends for every season. Then there are the necessities. Then there is…thee coat!

If done correctly, your Fall-Winter coat is that swirl of frosting on top of one perfect outfit. Like being wrapped in a warm, fuzzy cloud, with delicious written all over it.

As much as I would fully commit to saving myself for anything plus size from Marc Jacobs…I think it’s wise to pick up a cozy new coat for the chills to come. Plus, there are some seriously funky and fun coat trends this season!

Let’s see what I found! ;]

Faux Leather Military Jacket - Women's/Java - Size 20W

Leather! This Fall, it is the hottest trend among jackets and coats. Definitely turning heads. Especially when worn the right way! Wear it right above your hips, to make those curves pop. Or wear it long. Think leather trench coat. Any plus size jacket can be worn at mid-hip length. As long as the coat tapers at your waist, still defining your shape.

Avenue Plus Size Quilt Jacket with Removable Hood (RED,14/16)

Bold colors have made their entrance, and I have yet to see a bon voyage on the horizon. Just make sure to sport colors that flatter your skin tone, and your mood!

Jessica London Plus Size Denim Military Jacket (BLACK,16 W)

At ease, miss!

Every year military jackets are hot, hot, hot. This run around, you are bound to ditch the soldier, and just run away with the coat. 

The long. The mod. And neutral enough for every outfit…ta da! My favorite coat this year!

A must have!

Somewhere between trench coat, and jacket. This plus size coat rides the lines. It’s ready for any occasion, and just looks so cozy!
Woman to woman. No way could I have afforded this dream coat without this OneStopPlus.com coupon. And no way could I possibly not share it with you ladies!
