Temperatures are rising here in Chicago, and I’m pulling out all of my lightest cotton plus size dresses! This Asos Curve Check Mix and Match Cold Shoulder Cotton Dress was a recent acquisition and it’s going to make many appearances this summer!

ASOS CURVE Check Mix and Match Cold Shoulder Cotton Dress and Asos Doughnut Bow Sneakers (out of stock!)

When the weather gets warmer, the last thing I want to pull on are Spanx or any type of form-fitting clothes. I like to maximize the air flow! I choose looser silhouettes made of natural fibers…like this Asos Curve Check Mix and Match Cold Shoulder Cotton Dress. It’s fun and flirty — and absolutely not constricting! Perfect for those hot summer days.

I love the pink checked fabric with the contrasting blue checked ruffle hem. It’s a little asymmetrical, so it makes this dress even more playful and casual.

I paired it with my miniature satchel and some pink sneakers so that I could run around town doing my errands without my feet hurting. (Rare for me, I know!!)
