BOYFRIEND

plus size boyfriend jeans denim

how to wear boyfriend jeans denim plus size
jacket: FOREVER 21 (  get HERE HERE HERE ) blouse: TARGET ( HERE)  ring: H&M
jeans: CHARLOTTE RUSSE ( get HERE HERE HERE)clutch: VINTAGE shoes: ZARA ( get HERE HERE)

In leau of the time of year I thought "boyfriend" would be a fitting title Valentines is upon us if your in need of a dress you can check out my previous post HERE. So I bought this pair of boyfriend jeans about 3 years ago and right off the bat I noticed it wasnt very "boyfriendy" on me cause of the hips and derrière the lord bless me with. For many reasons like my hatered of whiskering on jeans, these bad boys havnt gotten alot of wear (like 90% of my closet) but as of late they've come on my radar maybe it is  because some of my favorite bloggers/celebs have been wearing them. What are the characteristics of a good boyfriend jean you might ask:
  1. slouchy 
  2. faded and destroyed
  3. cuffed (because of course your boyfriend is way taller than you so you had to cuff his jeans)
  4. from your boyfriend/fav neighborhood denim retailer

Boyfriend jeans and white two tricky trends on plus-size/curvy women, as always its about how you style it. So how do you feel about the winter white and boyfriend jean trend ( boyfriend jeans tend to favor a boyish body type and white makes everything look larger!!)are you for them or against them and have you tried these trends.


how to wear winter white trend

P.s this was supposed to be a winter white post, but you get a two fer because fortunately or unfortunately I dont have any white bottoms and honestly I am scared of white I would be a nervous wreck  the whole time from trying not to get stained.

BASICS




sweater: OLD NAYY (get HERE HERE HERE) pants: THRIFT  (get HERE HERE ) Shoes: TARGET  (get HERE HERE)

Hi dolls! its the ninth day of the new year a week has already gone by wow! I predict this year is going to race by, which is kind of bitter sweet for me because my not so little munchkin is turning six soon . Seems like he was born yesterday however before I procede down nostalgia lane let me get back to this post. I seem to be keeping it simple these days, I actually wore this outfit before the Gray post but thought it was too simple for the blog (I need to stop second guessing myself lol). After reading this post by stylishcurves and watching this vid on pocketsandbowsTV  I decide otherwise. Also black and white seem to be the combination of the moment. I am so behind on up and coming trends I seriously need to do some homework, I can tell you to keep your eye out for stripes preferably black and white and for the color emerald. Last september was hectic for me because I was transitioning so I was out of the fashion week loop, on that note I cant believe Fashion Week (NY) is only a month away time flies, this time last year I was preparing for IFBCON. By the way I still feel like the outfit is missing something what would you add?

P.s If you are a blogger and you havnt been (IFBCON) its definitely an experience and now they have jazzed it up and made it a two day event.

pas de DEUX

SUPPLECHIC 
As promised here is part two;
Lately I have been gravitating towards the black and white palette and consequently I have purchased a few clothing pieces with that color combination.
The sun dress is the quintessential summer staple, it even has "sun" in its name.
During Full Figure Fashion week I spotted this dress and i knew it was coming home with me.I love this dress for three reasons it has a palm print (vacation!!), it was thirteen dollars and it features the silhouette of the moment the "fit and flare".
PINAFORE  PLUS SIZE
For fall I decided to go for a "school girl" inspired look I layered a blouse underneath the dress and turned it into a pinafore. 
HOW TO TRANSITION FROM SUMMER TO FALL
In addition the blouse was buttoned all the way to the top, a statement necklace and botties completed the look
FALL TRENDS 2012 MILITARY  PLUS SIZE
depending on your weather you can go bear legs or if its a bit chilly add some tights.Their is just something I love about black tights and black botties 
DRESS, BLOUSE - H&M JACKET OLD - JC PENNY SHOES- TARGET
P.S I Got this dress from H&M ( I love the H&M's in New York City they dont make em the same)

MUSE :Klerlie Raymond

So I am starting a new series called Muse cause I am sure sooner than later you guys will get tired of seeing my face lol! Basically I will be showcasing bloggers, designers, pop culture icons, the girl on the street, anyone who I feel has inspired me. 
So I first came across K. on Lookbook and was immediately enthralled. I quickly checked to see if she had a blog unfortunately she didnt (I can totally understand why). 
For the most part I follow quite a few Bloggers some mainstream others not so much but I tend to idolize the ones that are adventurous e.g. the vintage virgin.
 I love people who don't quite sing to everyone's tune and this is very rare in the full figured world. With all that said I bring you Kerlie Raymond.



I'd say her style is quite Eclectic its a  mish mash of California Chic ( flower child meets edgy meets beach babe) with a  hint of Now( Modern,trendy) and a healthy dose of Vintage

So I asked K, three questions 
1. What does your style say about you? My style says whatever and whoever I am feeling that day.





2.Who is your style/fashion muse/inspiration? My style inspiration is June Ambrose. Her style is phenomenal. 


3. If you can only choose one item to wear every single day for the next year, what would it be?The one item I would choose to wear everyday for the next year is confidence, without it no outfit is complete. =]
K. I would buy a ticket to wherever you are if you would let me raid your closet!!







Do you guys like K's style as much as I do
If you do make sure you show her some love on lookbook tell her SUPPLECHIC sent you
P.S As you can tell K. loves her high waist-ed denim shorts and she is actually the one who inspired me to do my High waist-ed cut offs vid (one of my most watched) 
K. thank you for being an awesome sport
