It is the start of crop top season and I’m here for it.  This time I choose to go with showing more shoulder than stomach.  Don’t worry you’ll be seeing a lot of my stomach this Summer.  Now let’s get into this structured cotton cold shoulder top with contrasting straps.  The flared sleeves and relaxed fit is just what I needed to get the party started.  It’s definitely a wardrobe score.   This dress code winner is from the Asos collection straight size section.  I got the largest size it came in which is a 14.  So plus size ladies you don’t have to stick to just their curvy selection to get fab finds.

I couldn’t wait to wear my skinny jeans.  They are the perfect mix of comfort meets girly curves in these soft denim jeans.  I love love love this jeans.  They are fit to perfection.  They do my shape well!

I still wanted to look polished so I added chic accessories.  I paired this modern yet classic look with a pair of black heels and my memory of bag.  Just a little on my heels for those who struggle will traditional heels.  They’re laser cutouts, an open toe and a breezy lace-up detail at the shaft define a warm-weather pump finished with a stable block heel.  I love love love them.  I was going for a comfortable and fun look.  For me this was perfect for the #lifestyled17 event.  I think I nailed this season’s blue jean fashion goals.  If you were there and were one of the million people I took pictures with be sure to tag me in them.    If you didn’t make it you can see all the action from the#lifestyled17 mixer here.  Read 2017 ULTIMATE BUCKET LIST OF PLUS SIZE EVENTS so you don’t miss the next plus size event.

Similar Look Much Different Price

 

 

While looking for a new pair of open toed black shoes I came across the problem many shopper face.  I fail in love with the high end product.  In this case SAINT LAURENT Tribute T-Strap Platform Sandal.  However I can’t afford to pay over $900 for one pair of shoes.  After doing some looking I found JESSICA SIMPSON Barretta T-Strap Platform Sandal.  Similar look but a much different price.
