STYLE JOURNEY: ONE FINE FALL DAY

Hey curvy girls all over the world,
Yesterday was such a beautiful fall day. Not too cold and not too warm. I thought the weather called for and outfit that represented a little bit of spring and a little bit of fall. I decided to wear my second favorite piece from the One Stop Plus spring 2011 collection, which is this off white leather biker jacket. Can I just say that this jacket is all that and a bag of chips (corny, I know!).

The jacket was gifted to me from The OSP team earlier this year. I never wore it because I became so smitten with the OSP collection pink blazer (seen here & here), that I kind of forgot all about this jacket.

The jacket actually popped into my mind when I bought this Rachel Rachel Roy dress at Macy’s. I’m a huge fan of Rachel Roy especially when she goes on sale at Macy’s. I scooped up this little Eco friendly pleated dress in a salmon color. Rachel Roy does not do plus but some of her pieces are cut for the girl with a little or in my case a lot of meat on her bones. Once again, as plus size women we must try things on. When I first saw the drees, I was getting ready to write it off because I assumed it wasn’t going to fit around my hips, but, I know better than to just write something off without trying it on and I am glad I did. When I tried it on and I that sucker fit over my hips without Spanx, I grabbed it with the quickness because it was the only XL left. I looooove this dress and the pleated details. It’s so feminine but has a sophisticated aura about it.

I thought the jacket and the dress would be a perfect combination for a day like yesterday. I completed my look with another over looked item in my closet which are theses snakeskin print sandals by Calvin Klein. They were buried in the back of my closet and oddly enough when I was pulling the dress out so I could iron it, the shoe box fell on me. Go figure!

I felt so cool and chic yesterday, you couldn’t tell me anything. Stay tuned to SC this week for event recaps and new fall collections to be on the lookout for.

What I’m Wearing
Dress: Rachel Rachel Roy
Jacket: OSP Collection
Shoes: Calvin Klein
Clutch: Stolen from my momma
Bracelets: Loft & Mom
Earrings:Forever21
