Pastels and pearls are like the uniform for spring events — from Easter to brunch to weddings and everything in between! This Kiyonna Mademoiselle Lace Dress in Azalea Pink is a showstopping addition to your spring wardrobe. So ladylike! So flattering! So bright and lovely! The classic A-line shape is perfect for women with curves in their midsection and booty area. And the scalloped lace v-neck bodice is gorgeous and not too revealing-even if you’re busty.

I love the classic Chanel Coat and periodically go hunting for something that will give me that posh, sophisticated look, without the price tag (not to mention that Chanel doesn’t make plus sizes!). After binge-watching Scream Queens on Netflix a few months ago, I went crazy trying to find something that gave me that same over-the-top Chanel look and feel. And low and behold…I found this amazing plus size Tahari ASL Faux Pearl Trim Boucle Tweed Jacket at Macy’s! (Sadly, it’s already sold out.) At first glance, this jacket might seem a little old-lady-ish, but when you add a short body-con tunic dress, piles of pearls, and some thigh-high boots, the look gets a little younger, edgier and Scream Queen-worthy!
If you saw yesterday’s post, you know I’ve been collaborating with Fashion to Figure to bring you 3 perfect transitional outfits! It’s still freezing cold here in Chicago, but most of the country is starting to thaw out…and jumpsuits are perfect to transition to spring! This Black and White Wren Striped Jumpsuit from Fashion to Figure is super comfortable — made out of a loose knit that drapes over your curves. It’s sleeveless, so throw on a light layer like this Sloane Coated Blazer when you’re outside…and if you get warm, just slip it off. The stripe of the jumpsuit is pretty bold, so I played it down with some ladylike accessories — layers of pearls and this Lucian Color Block Snake Clutch took this look from playful to classy!
I love the ruching on the sleeves of this blazer!
Check back tomorrow for my last outfit post of this series!
This fall is all about classic looks in shades of gray, and I’m totally feeling preppy! So…I got out my pearls and my houndstooth swing coat and started pulling together a demure, old-school look that feels fresh and on trend. The perfect base for this preppy outfit was a super comfortable gray Jessica London Ponte Knit Dress.
The fit and flare shape is so easy to wear and flattering for many figures…while the seaming at the bust and the waist adds some shape to the dress. For some extra flair and dimension, I decided to wear a denim shirt underneath the dress and then set the whole outfit off with a pop of lemon heels.
Classic prep with some modern flair…perfect for fall in Chicago!
