Fourth of July: Plus Size OOTD

Happy

i got into the spirit of fourth of july yesterday and put on this jones new york sheath dress in red. i love, love this dress. it’s appropriate for work, for a lunch date, for brunch or for a night out. so versatile and such a great pop of color.

Sheer Genius: Plus Size OOTD

Details

a little outfit inspiration for you! i love this sheer top from forever21 for the print. i’ve worn it so many times that it’s already got a little snag in it from my rascally dog, but the good thing about a print like this is that it’s really hard to tell! i’ve got this casual look going on for a weekend at the park with friends for a picnic.

Sequins for Cheer

i need a little bit of cheering up. it’s been a rough week at the netta household. but i’ll be darned if i didn’t keep it cute and creative! do you ever have a dress that you just … it’s just not working for you? well, i’ve had this sequin “dress” from forever21 in my closet for awhile. when i first bought it, i thought it was a skirt (it is SO short when worn as a “dress”). but someone kindly informed me when i was talking about it one day that it is indeed supposed to be … a dress. maybe if you wanna show your hoo ha.

anyway. i decided to wear it as a skirt, but it just wasn’t wearing the way i wanted it to. so i threw on my trusty obi belt. every woman, no matter her size, should have this belt in their closet. i wear it over, and over, and over again. no lie. and this is coming from a girl who owns about 35 belts (ok probably more like 45 if i’m being rull honest here).

i decided she looked better as a paper bag waist skirt. what do you think?

and i don’t know why i felt so self-conscious in this outfit. i look HELLA CUTE. probably because people just don’t expect to see you on the train at 8am in full on sequins. whatever. any day is good for sequins, particularly if you’re anticipating a rough one (day, not set of sequins).
