Fall Fashion Watch: Trends Chosen by the Experts

Trend #1

Military Everything! Army Green...bomber jackets...structured coats and jackets. Be on trend this fall with just the right jacket for your body. You can go to ShopBazaar for high-end picks or you can get a fabulous Bomber in the Olive/Army Green for under $25 in PLUS SIZES 1X, 2X, and 3X at Scaled~uP Apparel (pictured below).

Trend #2: Orange (But say it with a French accent for effect!!)

Glamour's Dos & Don'ts always give me life! I live the thin black strip over the eyes of the big fat don'ts! But I digress. This go around they gave us a smathering of how to rock all shades of orange and how to mix and match them for an ultra stylish effect. Two of my favorites are a silky orange top and Solange's front split skirt! Not together unless you dare, but as staple pieces to build an gorgeous outfit upon. Solange paired her skirt (Similar Versace pictured below) with a turtleneck (Love her!). And, I'm seeing the silk sleeveless blouse, being paired with a burgundy pencil skirt! Ah, such cuteness and sophistication. Orange is the new black!

Happy Shopping!!

Sao Paulo Plus Size Fashion Week!

The 12th Annual Sao Paulo Plus Size Fashion Week is happening now and I couldn't be more excited about what I'm seeing!  The era of FRUMP is behind us (I hope). The clothes are vivid, stylish, and flattering. From swim suits to distressed denim shorts to fabulous dresses, the apparel is showing style diversity for curvaceous, confident women of all ages.

Spring/Summer Shopping List: Polka Dots

What is it about Polka Dots that are so appealing. Whether teeny tiny or huge like "Mongol Dots," they are absolutely perfect for any occasion.

Sneak Peek for Fall "Mongol Dot" look! MONGOL Brand

Have fun by mixing patterns and colors or get all matchy matchy. I found the best cardigan at Target - pink with white mini Polka Dots.

Two days later, I found some Tommy Hilfiger flip flops at Shoe Carnival--pink with white mini Polka Dots!!!

Can you say, "Score!" I've paired the matchy matchy duo with all black (black tank and black shorts) and all white (white oxford and white skirt). Order your set today (Target & Amazon-Shoe Carnival online store doesn't have the flops). I guarantee you, compliments will abound!


This little shift (trapeze dress) will be my next Amazon Prime order! I'll wear it all summer right into fall by pairing it with boots and tights. Happy Shopping!!
