STYLE JOURNEY: KNIT SWEATER DRESSES FOR FALL

Hey curvy girls all over the world,

Knit sweater dresses are a fall staple. They are perfect for dressing up and dressing down. I found this striped knit sweater dress at H&M while lunch break shopping. I know everyone says that plus size girls shouldn’t wear horizontal stripes but you already know how I feel about that foolish rule. I love the wide stripes on this dress because it enhances my curves.

Since sweater dresses cling to the body it’s important to wear the right undergarments to create a smooth look. Instead of Spanx, I chose to wear control top tights to hold all my jelly in. To compliment the dress I threw on my knee high suede boots from Michael Antonio, my fave cropped leather jacket from Torrid, a pair of gold hoops, and an infinity scarf from Forever 21.

Have you bought your sweater dress yet?

    I will be running to H&M for this dress! It looks fierce and the way you styled it looks amazing.

    You are so freaking pretty and I love the cut of that leather jacket.

    Great boots, too!

    Very nice…and I love how you disprove the myth that a larger woman cannot have nice, proportionate curves.
    I get so tired of people complaining about how women above a certain size shouldn’t be called curvy. It’s all about the ratios, and you definitely have them!

      I love the peter pan collar over the seetawr. You always have such interesting jumpers! We don’t have forever21 in the UK but I need to look out for something like it.

    Werk & knock em dead flaunting your curves. Thanks for reminding us that we do need the proper undergarments regardless of your size to hold in the jelly. Nothing worse seeing bumps and lumps

    H&M should give you shares in their company because you are one of the only people that can convince me to go out and GET any outfit you have shown. So far the dusty rose dress and now this sweater dress
