My Disclaimer

And here is my usual disclaimer.

As I’ve said, these “Straight Size to Plus Size” posts are some of my most popular, but I also get complaints that the “models” in the images aren’t “plus sized.”

So I just wanted to give a little background of why I do these types of posts:

We are all inundated every day by images of thin celebrities, models, and bloggers sporting the “latest looks,” i.e. clothing that doesn’t come in our size.

So I try to take these “unattainable” images and prove that, in fact, with some effort, plus size women can put these hot looks together.  

They are attainable!

And I try to take the effort, i.e. searching everywhere for the pieces, out of the equation.  

So as always, my main goal is to inspire and empower.

Ok, now back to the outfit idea!

Outfit Details

This outfit is so simple, yet so chic.

You can see from the image that Meghan’s shirt moves in a distinct way.  I can tell it is silk, so I started with a silk blouse.

If silk isn’t in your budget, I included some great alternatives in my links below.

Her shorts look like a linen blend to me.  But, I struggled to find similar in plus size.

However, I did find these pleated navy shorts which are very similar.

Key point, I think the pleats or darts in the shorts elevate the look. 

But, if you have some navy Bermuda shorts in your closet, see if you can make them work.

The belt also adds some sophistication.

And the Cult Gaia clutch gives the look some trendiness. 

I really love how Meghan seems to blend trends with classics (that’s also my thing 😉)

And for shoes, Meghan is wearing what I suspect are Manolo Blahnik pumps.

You might remember she wore the same suede pumps in a previous look I posted about.
