Plus Size Style: Bohemian Casual in H&M

Plus Size Style: Bohemian Casual in H&M

Boho chic is totally in for all sizes this season, and the plus size fashion world has embraced it! I am usually more of a structured, power dress kind of gal, but I love the bohemian look and wanted to put something together that looked effortless, breezy, cool and casual. I was shopping on State St in downtown Chicago and decided to give H&M a try, since they are known for being super trendy. Unfortunately, they did not have their plus size selections in the store, but I walked around anyway, hoping to spot something that would fit. And VOILA! I found 2 pieces that were perfect for the fashion-forward boho-vibe I was going for, even though they were not plus size pieces!

Plus Size Boho Chic Outfit from H&M – Blue and Gold Floral Kimono with Striped Tshirt Dress

These were not plus size items — actually the size of both pieces was L — so don’t be afraid to try on straight-sized items if they are open, flowy or have a lot of stretch to them. And wow…I absolutely love pairing florals and stripes together. Look at how dramatic this outfit is!

The blue belt is from Eloquii and it was the perfect addition to bring tie the kimono to the dress! To complete the look, I just piled on as many accessories as possible…including this beautiful JORD Wood Watch that I’ve featured before on my blog. I felt cool and a little funky! And…again…FLATS! These cute little tennis shoes are the perfect thing to bum around in this summer. I might be a tennis-shoes-with-dresses convert now!

So…my two pointers for plus size ladies wanting to put together a trendy boho-chic look? First, don’t be afraid to go bold and mix your patterns. Secondly, don’t be afraid to shop in the straight size section of major retailers…you might just find the perfect piece to complete your look!
