This is the plus size cocktail dress to beat all cocktail dresses! And yes, it’s from Kiyonna, one of my all time favorite plus size brands. This Kiyonna Ciara Cinched Dress in Olive Martini* is gorgeous and sophisticated…and not to mention sexy!

I loved this Boohoo Plus Size Embroidered Shirt Dress the moment I saw it on their site! By the time I got it, I had already planned out the rock n roll, rough and tumble look I wanted to go for. Since it was sheer, I wanted to be covered, but not too covered. So, I wore a full coverage black bra and some shorts underneath and the only thing left to do was to add some badass shades.
In June, I was lucky enough to make it to New York City for 3 incredible plus size fashion events: the Golden Confidence Pool Party, Full Figured Fashion Week, and Curvy Con! It was my first time at all three events, and I felt like I had died and gone to plus size heaven! It was one of the most exciting, supportive and beautiful experiences of my life. And Curvy Con capped the week off with a fabulous shopping expo, amazing panels, and great after-parties.
This 2 day event was created by the lovely Chastity Garner of GarnerStyle.com and CeCe Olisa of Plus Size Princess. I managed to snap a picture with them and my favorite side kick of the weekend Amanda from Latest Wrinkle between sessions!
And I loved all the cute photo ops and backdrops throughout the space! This one was a favorite!
Have mentioned the shopping?? Loved the curated selections from all the heavy hitters in plus size fashion today…Simply Be, Eloquii, JC Penny, Asos Curve, Fashion to Figure and many others!
Overall, it was an absolutely lovely event, and I will definitely try to go back next year when they move the event to Fashion Week in September!! SO EXCITED already!!!! xoxoxoxo
Plus size jumpsuits are totally having a moment right now! After a few false starts, so many retailers have found the perfect formula to fit and flatter plus size curves with innovative, fun and trendy jumpsuit designs. And all of these jumpsuits have led to this moment in time. THIS JUMPSUIT from ELOQUII is the absolute best version of a jumpsuit that has existed since the beginning of time. Am I exaggerating? NO. I love love love love this cropped denim style. It’s adorable and a little funky and totally on trend.
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!
