Instagram weekend

  

This past weekend my husband and I had a magical stay-cation in West Hollywood.  Room service, salt water pool, good friends, and lots of rum.  I did most of my visual chronicling on Instagram, so if you don't follow me on there, check it out online here.  Here are 3 looks above from various points in the weekend.  Top photo: Bathing suit, sunglasses - ASOS, Leopard Kimono - Nasty Gal, Necklace - Topshop.  Bottom left photo: Dress - ASOS, Sunglasses - Coastal.com, Bra - Lane Bryant, Necklace - Vintage (1970's). Bottom right photo: Sunglasses - ASOS.  I'm loving the poolside vibe this summer, so hopefully I will have more day looks...and soon!

With the ebb and flow of trends, popular clothing shapes change, but there is usually some style that big girls can wear, regardless of what the tag sizes. Currently, with many loose, billowing shapes happening, there are many yummy-tummy options being sold. Here are my favorite pieces of the moment that can be worked into wardrobes of ladies of all sizes!

I know that some ladies (and gents!) are unsure of how to style these or are afraid that they will make you look "bigger". There are plenty of ways to adjust shapes that don't require a needle and thread. Here are my favorite ways to add definition to a loose top/dress.

Belt - Cropped Vest - Cardigan - Jacket - Hoodie - Scarf (tied wherever feels best) - Layered Tank Top - Safety pin the back (an interesting pinning could ENHANCE the design)

And the best advice of all: stop worrying about it making you look bigger and work that flow-y business!!
