Some unexpected print-mixing for the office in this plus size winter work outfit idea. In case you’re new, make sure you check out my tips on mixing prints here. This combo works well for two reasons: the stripes are larger scale than the plaid and one color, the light blue, is found in both prints.
Although I am in love with this combination, the sweater would also look incredible with a pair of dark jeans and ankle booties. So this sweater can pull double-duty for both work and play.
Check out this look I came across on Pinterest. Cute! Similar wide calf over-the-knee boots here or check out my wide calf boots guide.

A Special Request – Deadline Soon!
In case you haven’t already heard my request, I have a favor to ask…
There is just one week left for submissions!
A quick summary (TL;DR): Help me represent the plus size community at an upcoming educational program for influencers by telling the admissions committee why you think I should get the opportunity.
More details:
- I applied for an amazing program for “influencers who typically have been excluded by the industry.” If I were to be accepted, I would get to travel to NYC to meet with some top influencers, take a day of classes, and be given a mentor to help me do what I do better. Basically, it’s an incredible opportunity!
- If I am totally honest, this also sounds intimidating to me. But, there are way too many benefits not to be brave. And I also really want to go and represent for the plus size gals!
- Part of the application process asks that I get testimonials from my audience (y’all) about how I have impacted my community. These testimonials will be used to judge my application. So, if you want to share why you are a fan of my work or ways that you think I have helped the plus size community, please add your testimonial here.
Thank you SO much in advance. And if you don’t have the time or interest, I completely understand. More than anything, I just appreciate that you come and read my blog!

This whole outfit is just warm and fuzzy! I especially love the sweater and the shoes. So many textures and colors so little time,
Hi, I have a request.
When I access any of the makeup links – lipstick, nail polish etc – I never reach the colour choice shown on your website photo. So I have to search through the sellers posted colour range and I’m never sure if I’ve picked the right one because they have so many similar colours. And sometimes not all their colour choices are available in Canadian stores. It would be great if you posted the actual ‘name’ of your colour choice with the link.
Thank you for taking time to think about this.
Hi there!
Thanks for the feedback. I will try to include the color names. If not in the actual link, then in the text where I discuss the items more in depth.
Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment!

I love your site! I am new here and the organization of you stores, prices, colors, and fits are incredibly fabulous! Would you happen to posts for cruise wear? Or ‘going to the mountains’ for the weekend wear? Thank you so much for your positive bright outlook on throwing outfits together. I gained weight after 40 and dressed terrible for a long time. I refuse to do that any longer! Thank you Thank you Thank you!
Hi Stephanie,
