I am so feeling this outfit! Everyone should have a good pair of plus size black skinnies- jeans or pants! This outfit works for day or night. And you can always throw on a black blazer for cooler evenings or more coverage. All black is super chic, but the gold accessories really make this plus… Read More
It’s officially spring, which means it’s officially wedding season! What are you going to wear? If you’re like me, you like a bit of arm coverage, which can be hard to come by. So I thought I’d help out and search for plus size wedding guest dresses with sleeves! These dresses would work for a… Read More
I wasn’t sure what to call this collection, maybe a “mini capsule wardrobe” but probably more of a “what to pack when traveling and doing some business” or “demonstrate how to recycle pieces in a spring wardrobe” collection. Regardless, it’s a nice mix of professional wear and casual clothes that can be mixed and matched to create… Read More

And I love this plus size top by Carmakoma because it has sleeves (hells yes!) without any compromise on sexiness. The heeled sandals are just as sexy, but with a short heel (yes,… Read More

Ultimately, this has led to no going out time but listening to a lot of dance music, such as “Time of Our Lives.” And… Read More

As a woman who typically has to pair shrugs, boleros, or cropped cardigans with all of the cute [sleeveless] party dresses, I… Read More
