Fall’s Favorite Plus Size Trends

This fall is all about embracing your feminine curves with a touch of masculinity. The shirts are snug and comfortable & the blouses and sweaters are long, flowy, & sheer. Fall staple pieces are structured blazers, flared jeans, high-waist midi skirts and jeans & wide leg pants. The colors and patterns range from delicate oriental inspired flowers in rich auburns, burnt oranges chocolate browns, vibrant fuchsias and royal navy to houndsooth, checkered, ombre & striped patterns in basic red black and white. Looks reminiscent of the 70’s are back this fall as well as some edgy punk looks.

A Few Favorites This Season:

Ponchos

Available at www.avenue.com

These add instant style to any outfit. You can wear a poncho with a skirt and dress it up with your favorite jewelry, booties and handbag or you can wear it with jeans and flats. Great for days when you don’t feel like wearing anything fitted. These can be belted if done correctly to create a more structured look.

Open Cardigans

Available at www.nordstrom.com

Every curvy girl needs one of these! Throw a belt on and cinch your waist while keeping fashionably warm during the cooler days of fall.

Basic Camis

Every woman should own a few of these in a variety of colors to cover the “girls” when wearing a shirt or blouse that is just too revealing. One great cami to try is Second Base demi camis. I love the idea of wearing this because it cuts down on the extra bulkiness that camis can cause. Plus you don’t have to worry about it riding up because it’s designed to stay in place right under your breasts. Check them out! ShopSecondBase.com

Flared Jeans

These jeans are guaranteed to hug every curve in all the right places and fit snug all the way down to the knee where they fan outwards all the way to bottom of hem.

Wide Leg Pants

Available at www.svobodastyle.com

Wide through the entire leg, usually this style of pant features a wide waistband but not all styles do. These are great for the office or for a dressy, business look.

High-Waist Pants or Jeans

Designed to sit higher at the waist to really accentuate your waist and curves.

High-Waist Midi Skirt

This skirt is the sexier version of the classic pencil skirt. Created with your curves in mind this skirt sits high at the waist and is longer than the pencil skirt passing the knees. There are many different versions of this style but all feature a lady-like, classic style.

Structured Blazer

This key item can help pull any outfit together. If you can’t find your perfect size, buy a larger size and get it tailored to fit, your curves will thank you.

Blouses with Feminine Details

Available at www.ashleystewart.com

Ruffles, pleated, plunging necklines with sheer fabric & belted. These blouses look sophisticated when paired with a blazer and wide leg pants.

Trends come and go, make sure that whatever you choose to add to your fall wardrobe it’s something that makes you look and feel great. Don’t be afraid to try on something new, you may be pleasantly surprised at how flattering a certain style looks on you.
