3D Flowers On This Plus Size Dress from ASOS Curve

Prints of flowers are not enough for me any more. I’ve crossed the line. I’ve gone 3D! This plus size dress from ASOS Curve has delicate, colorful beaded flowers all over the light and airy fabric…It’s decadent and a little flashy…but oh so sweet and innocent! The skater dress shape of this dress makes it ideal for twirling, but beware…it is SHORT! I like my dresses and skirts short, but it was even making me nervous! But OHHHH….the beading!

 Plus Size ASOS Curve Skater Dress with 3D Flower Embellishment

The material of this plus size skater dress is so light and airy…and it comes in a delicate blue-gray color, which is so delicate. The beadwork is fancy and intricate and just pops right off the fabric, and really just makes you happy to look at! 
I am so lucky that my friend Sarah from Levine-Moore Photography agreed to take my pictures in this dress! She’s amazing, and caught the lighting and details of the 3D flowers perfectly. She’s great to work with…so if you need some quick shots for your blog, more intense fashion shoots or portraits, headshots, or pictures of your adorable pets–seriously check her out here!

Happy Easter! Welcoming Spring in Florals and Vintage Hats!

Happy Easter from Style Plus Curves! I’m celebrating spring with florals, florals, florals! Also…hats! I try to take any and all chances to wear a hat and gloves! The fashion scene is sadly lacking hats and Easter is one of the few times where people in the U.S. will wear them! So, here’s my perfect Easter Sunday outfit: this ASOS CURVE Wiggle Dress in Garden Floral Print and this vintage bonnet and vintage gloves. So fresh, so ladylike, so spring!

Closet Find: A Charming Retro Floral Dress from City Chic

It’s no secret that I have tons and tons of plus size dresses bursting my closet at the seams. That’s one of the reasons I recently revamped my online store (ACCESS IT HERE) so that I could let some of my clothes breathe! I have so many dresses that it’s hard for me to find the ones I truly love. In fact, I recently rediscovered this City Chic black floral fit-and-flare plus size dress in the back of my closet and wore it out with my boyfriend for date night. Then I realized that I had never posted the adorable pictures I took of it from over a year ago! I still had my short bob (totally miss it now!!) and the snow was just starting to melt. I love this dress for it’s feminine 50s shape, flared out skirt (it has netting underneath!) and the elbow length sleeves. It fits like a glove!

And of course, we took these pictures at high noon (a big photoshoot no-no), so this is pretty much how I spent the whole shoot!

Aren’t these florals just so bold and beautiful?! They jump right off the black background! Sadly, it’s already sold out, but the good news for you is that it will be coming to my online store soon!!! If you want to call dibs on it, email me and I’ll put it aside for you!

I love that this dress goes so well with black tights and colorful shoes! It makes it appropriate for all seasons. 🙂

Plus Size Flirty Floral Dress from ASOS Curve

It’s never too early to start prepping for festival season! When the temp starts heating up and your calendar starts to fill with outdoor festivals and fests, you are going to wish you had this AX Paris Plus Size Tunic Dress with Flutter Sleeves and Crochet Hem from ASOS Curve! The bright bold print and the short flirty hem will guarantee that you’ll look cute and fresh no matter how hot the day gets. The flutter sleeves are whimsical and catch the wind perfectly. The smocked top is off the shoulder and might lay a little odd if you’re busty like me, but with some adjustments, it will lay just right. What more do you want from your festival wear? Throw on some fringe boots and a cross-body bag and you’re ready to rock the day (and night) away.

Feminine and Flirty Plus Size Hydrangea Print City Chic Dress

I’m a southern girl from Alabama, and I grew up with overflowing hydrangea bushes in my front yard. So I had to have this amazing Plus Size Hydrangea Print Dress from City Chic the moment I saw it! The print is so bold and saturated, and the shape is flirty and feminine–complete with a tulle underskirt that helps the skirt flare out in a fabulous full way.

I have this exact City Chic dress in a gorgeous Cactus print–it has the same super saturated floral appeal and the same great shape. The v-neck comes down pretty low, and the waist nips in tightly before flaring out into the full skirt. It hits me a few inches above the knee, but I believe it is knee-length on most people! This is a perfect dress for all sorts of spring activities — an Easter brunch or a wedding shower for a girlfriend. It’s available on City Chic’s website, but you can also find it at Macy’s too!
