Feminine and Flirty Plus Size Hydrangea Print City Chic Dress

I’m a southern girl from Alabama, and I grew up with overflowing hydrangea bushes in my front yard. So I had to have this amazing Plus Size Hydrangea Print Dress from City Chic the moment I saw it! The print is so bold and saturated, and the shape is flirty and feminine–complete with a tulle underskirt that helps the skirt flare out in a fabulous full way.

I have this exact City Chic dress in a gorgeous Cactus print–it has the same super saturated floral appeal and the same great shape. The v-neck comes down pretty low, and the waist nips in tightly before flaring out into the full skirt. It hits me a few inches above the knee, but I believe it is knee-length on most people! This is a perfect dress for all sorts of spring activities — an Easter brunch or a wedding shower for a girlfriend. It’s available on City Chic’s website, but you can also find it at Macy’s too!

Another Adorable Look from Gwynnie Bee: Cherry Velvet Adele Dress in Mod Dots

I’m loving the new infusion of adorable pinup, vintage-looking labels in my Gwynnie Bee closet! Cherry Velvet is a great line with fun prints and flattering shapes for plussize girls with a love of pinup looks. This Adele Dress in Mod Dots (GB girls find it here) in this graphic black and white print has an fabulous sweetheart neckline, 3/4 length sleeves and a nipped in waist–with pockets. So cute!

Black and white goes great with a pop of color–these fab melon-orange heels are the perfect color and height. They are INC from Macy’s. Other mod-inspired accessories set off this look and make it fun and flirty.
