Kiyonna holds a ridiculously special place in my heart — and in my closet! I have never tried on a dress from them that I haven’t immediately loved…and they have won me completely over with their charming, super flattering, somewhat retro, ladylike looks! Their newest design is a little different than the silhouettes that we’re used to, and I’m just as infatuated with it!!! The Racy Faux Wrap Dress from Kiyonna* (buy it here!) is sleek and modern and a little edgy!

It’s nearly sundress weather and I’m already packing them in to my closet! This City Chic Riviera Handkerchief Hem Sundress has me longing for a day out on a sailboat or at a summer barbecue. I know, I know…I’m not a huge fan of the handkerchief hem trend that we’ve been having in plus sizes for about 3 years now, but it works on this dress because it’s breezy and light and catches the wind just right.

My usual style alternates between #GIRLBOSS and Glam, but sometimes I like to change it up in my off-duty stlye and go casual. Contrary to popular belief, I do wear jeans! As part of my recent collaboration with Forever 21, I chose 3 looks to play with…and today’s look is all about being cool and casual in a cropped top and ripped jeans!

LOOK! These colors are amazing! Bright oranges and blues and teals! This City Chic plus size maxi dress is everything a floral-dress-lover could want. I’ve had a not-so-secret obsession with City Chic, and I love that they are becoming easier and easier to find! They have been in Nordstrom for a few years, and online since the beginning. But now they’re in Macy’s and on Gwynnie Bee as well as part of the Fullbeauty suite of brands! I spotted this dress on Fullbeauty.com, but sadly they are already sold out (but check out the other fabulous City Chic pieces they care here)! It’s clear that City Chic is taking over the world…and why not? With killer dresses like this at fabulous price points, I can’t help but be a huge fan.

Sometimes I stumble upon an outfit that is a lot cooler than me. That happened when I collaborated with Forever 21 Plus on a series of spring fashion posts*. I saw this Forever 21 Plus Size Faux Leather Shift Dress and my cool girl meter went to 11! I love the rock star vibe of the faux leather and the short skirt. The deep cuts on the sides are meant to show off a cute patterned top — like this striped tank — or even a crop top!

I love how soft the faux leather feels, and the short length is perfect for those who want to show some leg!
