Love Cats - a plus size polyvore set for autumn inspiration
It’s the hottest days of summer and of course I’m already looking forward to fall and fall fashion. I saw these two sweet prints on eShakti and just had to put some ideas together for them. Nothing like pairing a sweet print with some aggressive accessories. Plus shirt dresses (like the one on the left) are SUPER on-trend for this fall. These looks could easily be worn still this summer with wedge sandals and a tote bag and easy jewelry. I love that they will work perfectly for fall with a leather jacket and big jewelry too.
As always, I’ve styled items keeping my own budget in mind (most items are significantly less than $100) - I hope you enjoy!
PS: That great light pink ASOS Curve jacket is currently on sale - snatch one up today!
Where to buy plus size clothes over size 20
eShakti - this online retailer makes adorable dresses/skirts/shirts and accessories up to size 26W. In addition to this sizing, they also offer custom sizing for their items (including alterations on sleeves, hem length, bust size, etc).
Forever 21+ - I really love shopping in store as their selection is much larger, but they have online shop too. Their sizing goes up to 3X, though it really varies wildly. Worth checking out for really trendy looks.
Evans UK - this great UK shop goes up to UK size 32. They’ve got lots of trendy looks. Downside - I find international shipping to be problematic with returns. Not specific to Evans UK
As for in-person shops
Lane Bryant goes up to size 28
Ashley Stewart goes up to size 3X and has extended sizes (up to 32 i believe) available on their website
There are tons more resources out there and FuckYEAHCHUBBYFASHION has a massive list.
