FASHION CASUALTY OF THE WEEK!!

Ok so for this wonderful Halloween week we chose Cordelia. She's the first person we thought of and well.....she's the next oldest girl in the family so it's only fitting. Dont get us wrong we love her, BUT WE DONT LOVE HER FASHION! I know your all probably saying to yourself, Who are you to judge? Well I myself being a late fashion bloomer KNOW BETTER!! I have seen many of my siblings dress in attire that is....lets just say not amusing to the eye. Cordelia is a perfect example of woman today who dont know how to dress there size. She's not super skinny (which by the way isn't a bad thing) and she's not super massive(which is also a good thing). She falls in the category where MANY women fall, Average WOMEN WITH CURVES!! She has many beautiful pieces in her wardrobe. She just lacks the follow through of putting it together.

There is one particular skirt Cordelia loves to wear. It is a short washed jean that hits above the knee. She wears it as her versatile skirt. The only problem is that wearing a washed jean of any type widens the thigh area. For curvy women who have problems in the thigh area its a major NO NO! A dark denim pencil skirt would accentuate the curves of her hips. LADIES a dark pencil skirt can go a long way. Invest in one, it says CLASSY not TRASHY! I know the most difficult thing to buy are jeans, so for jean shopping always think DARK DENIMs. STAY AWAY from jeans that are tight around the booty through the thighs and wide legged all at the same time. Cordelia's choice is obvious. The washed look at the thighs BIG NO NO so please cut them up and toss them. Now lets talk about tops. Cordelia's big NO NO'S are tops that are TOO SMALL which create a shorter torso. Realize that your top should fall at the midline of your navel NOT above your belly button. For a women of Cordelia's size the off the shoulder is great, but it has to be worn right. She does have broad shoulders WE ALL KNOW THAT! As do I, but to wear the right shirt, pick material that doesn't hug your NEGATIVE AREAS. Proportion is the key for every plus size women. Im not saying hide your body because its NO SECRET that your body is your body. Embrace what you have and it'll make picking out clothing SOOO much easier. Here are some types of clothing I would choose for Cordelia. Wrapped tops look great and bring the waist in. The structured tops help elongate the torso and brings the eye to your center. Choose fabrics that flow and drape nicely. Well for women who suffer of chubbage in certain areas remember dark denims that lengthen you are your BEST FRIEND. Choose tops that enhance your best assets. Dont be a skank and give away all your goodies. Hide what should be hidden, show with a little curiosity and DRESS TO IMPRESS....YOURSELF!! So if you happen to fall under the watchful eyes of "JLS" dont be scared we dont bite, but we do scratch....sometimes!!
