And thankfully, City Chic has tons of adorable plus size dresses that keep me cool and looking cute no matter how hot it gets!

My Favorite City Chic Dress: The Succulent Sweetie

I fell madly in love with this City Chic Succulent Sweetie dress the moment I saw it in Nordstrom over a year ago! The PRINT — SO vibrant and bold…and unexpected!!! I mean…succulents? On a dress??? And it’s not just any dress…it’s this amazing fit-and-flare party dress that’s made out of crepe de chine and has a fabulous tulle underskirt to make the skirt stand out…just so! It’s a win from top to bottom…and you can see I felt like a million bucks in it. And…lucky you — some sizes are still available in this dress at City Chic, Macy’s and Bloomingdales. Snag one if you can!!!

Voodoo Vixen Plus Size Retro Sailor Print Dress

Sometimes, nothing else will do but an adorable retro dress in a fabulous sailor print. This plus size sailor print dress from Voodoo Vixen* is everything my vintage-loving heart could desire! From the bright gorgeous red to the white scalloped sweetheart neckline and trims — I’m swooning! The nautical print is a mix of anchors and steering wheels which has me wanting to set sail — even though I get horrible motion sickness! If you haven’t heard of Voodoo Vixen, and you’re a vintage/retro-loving gal…get yourself to their website! They have a great selection of plus size and straight size styles in 30s, 40s, and 50s shapes and styles. You’ll be in heaven!

 Plus Size Sailor Dress c/o Voodoo Vixen*

What I love about this adorable plus size retro dress: I’ve already talked about the charming nautical print. The full 50s silhouette is so great for women of all sizes — the nipped in belted waist with the sweetheart neckline is so flattering! And the cap sleeves are big enough for my arms, without being too big or gaping. I’m wearing a size 3X, since their dresses run a little snug — especially if you have a large bust. I’m in between a 2X/3X, so I opted to have a little more room. Bring on the boat parties! In a dress this cute, I am tempted to forget that I get motion sick and will sail away into the sunset!
