All The Rage This Spring/Summer Kimono Fever : Plus Size Kimonos!!!

Hey PLUS girls!! Let me just jump right into this exciting post today I have been so crazy about kimonos for spring & summer! They have caught my eye to the point where I have been searching different places for different  styles, prints, colors, & sizes for me & of course my plus girls. Super cute & easy to style seriously the possibilities  are endless you can go from boho chic to sex kitten with lace & fringe lol! A cute tank top or blouse with jeans or ripped jeans would be so darling & chic with a cute sandal, wedge, heels, or flats. Dresses , skirts, shorts I could name so many cute spring/summer ready outfits featuring kimonos!! What I have noticed during my search for kimonos is that they can be on the pricey side depending on where you shop or find them. Taking advantage of sales is always fabulous honey I like to save my COINS haha you want to have cute clothing at affordable prices which is why I will be showcasing variety as far as price and style. I love to give variety that will help people in anyway because we all have different budgets & personal style & I want to accommodate everybody no matter style, size, or budget!! I took the time to include a link for each style of kimono so if you see one that you can't live your life without just click the link I really hope you find one that suits your personal style.                                                                                                                                    
                                                                                                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                                                     
Also when visiting different  websites when the do you want to give your email for updates, new collections, & sales pops up please take advantage it only takes a few seconds of your time. Usually you will receive a discount code for a future purchase or free shipping sometimes both! Check your favorite sites frequently to see when items you have your eye goes on sale nothing like a good mark down or clearance sale! Two sites that I love & use when I shop online www.retailmenot.com great for finding the latest discount codes!! The next site I love because you can also find discount codes & make money  from your purchases you heard me correct make money back plus when you sign up & you get a free gift card for the store of your choice. When I signed up I got a $10 dollar gift card to Target http://www.ebates.com/rf.do?referrerid=cV%2FHQCd9Voe8LvpHhVTX6Q%3D%3D ! Now I will be featuring very popular well known plus size fashion websites enough talking on to the fabulous kimonos!!                                                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                   
                                                                                                                                                                     
Now the  first set of kimonos I found were of course on my favorite site in the whole entire world www.asos.com !! They are on the pricey side so use & take advantage of discount codes right now the St. Patricks sale is still going use code "LUCKYDUCK" 20% off regular price items.

Enough with me being silly of course  when you see my graphic tee you should know she is lost in a dream of plus size fashion! I took something as simple as a graphic tee & made it my own " Chic Sexy Glam" . This is look number one of my faux leather look book I will have around three to four looks featuring faux leather ! Now lets get into my outfit that I loveeeee are you tired of all this talking yet ?! lol                                                                      
                                                                                                                                                                           

STYLE TIP: Have fun with simple clothing  & make it your own I dressed up a simple graphic tee into a chic look! Blazers and Jackets are great for taking a outfit to the next level which is what I did with my camo jacket!                                                                                                                                        
                                                                                                                                                                     

                                                                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                     

                                                                                                                                                                     
                                                                                                                                                                   

STYLE TIP#2: If you don't like your legs or live in Chicago like me where its freezing lol still serve them up a side of legs ! I know many women who don't like their legs my answer to that is to have fun with tights. You can do printed tights, black/color tights, & girl when you are feeling sexy grab those fishnets!! I was feeling all types of sexy so today  I wore my fishnets because its to cold for bare legs plus I am working on my little hamhocks ;)

Fashion Series: From Straight To PLUS!

Hey PLUS girls I have been thinking long and hard about different series I want to bring to my blog from straight to plus will be a new fashion series on my blog featuring inspiration outfit's that I remix and make my own! I'm super excited for this fashion series and I chose the name " From Straight To Plus" because I want people to know do not limit your fashion options! Just because you may see a outfit on a smaller figure doesn't mean you can't get creative remix that outfit and make it yours add your own flavor and spice honey! I will be shopping in my closet lol and going thrifting to create different  outfits for this series remember you do not have the break the bank to be fashion forward labels mean nothing! For example I will be balling on a budget when I recreate celebrity looks which for me is even more exciting to showcase fashion is way of life and adventurous not about labels and price tags! I think my first celebrity from straight to plus look will be featuring a outfit inspiration from LaLa Anthony. Take risk have fun fashion has no rules and for the  people who think rules exist tell them "honey lies you tell" explore and mix prints and colors go bold or honey go home don't ever feel the need to be boring or be in a box worrying about what the next thinks or has to say live your fashion life to the fullest! You beauties know I love to talk so let me stop and show you a example of my first from straight to plus outfit I got inspiration from a model on my favorite website ASOS CURVE!!!          
                                                                                                                                                                 

Faux Leather is so hot and sexy very trendy for fall possibilities  are endless you can dress faux leather leggings, pants, skirts, dresses, or shorts up or down I was inspired by a model from Asos Curve to recreate her outfit and make it my own!        

                                              

                                                                                       

                                           

 Be inspired and create magic be your own star and shine bright be willing to task risk try new things or experiences be daring and make people wonder " how did she pull that off" lol :)

Let me just say I was blown away by the beautiful women embracing their bodies & walking down the runway with so much confidence breath taking. I love that the fashion show was about embracing and showing love to plus size women we deserve  fashionable clothes and options ! Size doesn't make YOU who you are no matter what size, shape, color, or race big girl you are beautiful more girls and women need to know that. The fashion show had so many options it was fabulous I'm so inspired to continue to follow my dreams in the plus size fashion industry! I had so much fun I could talk about the event all day lol looking forward to more plus size fashion events in the future love networking and meeting new people. So I mixed up prints with my outfit which I loved and got tons of compliments  leopard and hearts sounds interesting right?
