Dressing a curvy body has been an uphill battle for centuries. Weight loss for you is a tricky game with boobie traps such as eating more than one cup of delectable frozen yogurt. It seems as if designers only make clothes for skinny and petite boyish figures. However with the right eye, shopping when this size is not a hassle! A wise woman once told me that if it doesn't fit in the store, then it won't fit out of the store. This philosophy applies for you curvy women. Don't tell yourself that you're loosing 15 lbs. so you can fit into those super tight skinny jeans because it isn't happening any time soon. Rather than changing yourself for clothes, find clothes that fit you. So when purchasing jeans, avoid the skinny jeans that the mannequin models and choose a stretchy bootcut or flare. These are not only more comfortable and flatter your figure, but they also allow you to be less conscious if you have the dreaded "muffin top" or not. These SOLD DESIGN LAB Light Wash Virtual Stretch High Heel Bell Jeans are an essential because they stretch with your curves. For a darker wash, DIESEL Louvely Divinely Stretch Jeans will do just the trick. When hunting for a shirt to pair up with these jeans, look for tops that accentuate your best areas and draw the attention upward to avoid your stomach area. Darker colors give the illusion of looking thinner which is ideal for you curvy women. This Elie Tahari Angelic Tunic is ideal for the end of summer and start of fall. You can easily pair this up with your light wash jeans, nude wedges, and a pendent necklace for any summer occasion. The color is also a timeless fall color. When in need of skirts avoid bandage or tight skirts at all costs. They make your lower body look much larger than it should be. Try to find skirts that go outward to make your hips look smaller. This playful Club Monaco Gwen Skirt will do just that. Wear this DVF Cascadia Blouse with your skirt and a pair of nude wedges and you're set. For a more formal event where the attire requires a dress wear this Rag & Bone The Iver Dress to show you in your best light. Remember don't be afraid to grab that large if that is what looks best on you! XOXO,

Shape On.
