A big ass burst of color because I'm noncommittal.

 Relaxed Fit Coat: ASOS Curve, Skirt: Rebdolls, Earrings: Bauble Bar

I saw this coat when I was in London visiting the ASOS headquarters (the most amazing office in the history of offices). I knew it would appease both sides of my personality. When I feel like looking like a stark white room with only one lovely piece of furniture in it or hyper feminine "lady luxe" - that's totally a thing...this darling coats could go both ways.

COAT FIT TIP: Size down, I'm swimming in mine and I ordered my true size.

Real Women Repeat - An Ode to the Plus Size Style Replay

HTML email (plussizebabydolldress.blogspot.com)#DressAndRepeat your plus size clothes for maximum wardrobe versatility
Every day women across the world do something some consider scandalous…

We wear outfits a second time. Or even (gasp) a third.

Everyone does it. Come on, admit it. You do it too. So why don’t people talk about it? It’s like a dirty little fashion secret.

The fact of the matter is that 99% of us have limited closet space.  Probably a fixed shopping budget too. So maximizing our wardrobe becomes key in looking great every day. This means, we [have to] wear specific items, and even full outfits, again and again.

So I’m just going to come out and do it. I’m daring women of the world to be proud of the styles they keep in heavy rotation.  Have something you love that ALWAYS looks amazing? Yes! Brava!! I congratulate you.

I’m starting new hashtag. Yup, a hashtag that stands up and screams to the world. It says “hey world, I’m wearing this outfit AGAIN and I STILL LOVE IT! WOOHOO!!”

Meet #DressAndRepeat.

It’s a friendly little hashtag. Putting us in the sisterhood of fashion life. A hashtag that can bond us together, closet to closet across this great wide world.

So, from now on,  when you recycle an  outfit or give a fashion favorite a new life, share a pic and tag it

#DressAndRepeat

Simple as that.

 #DressAndRepeat dares us all to strip away the shame of “wearing it again!”

Don’t be embarrassed strutting your stuff in that black dress that, really does, work just as well for a Brunch with  the Girls as it does on a super sexy date.


#DressAndRepeat with your plus size dresses
Wear it. Own it. Snap a pic. And tag it.

#DressAndRepeat.

I’ve started off my #DressAndRepeat with two exmaples of times I’ve proudly recycled my outfits. Check out these two pictures wearing SWAK Designs dresses. 

The first plus size dress? A basic black bodycon that, to this day, is still a wardrobe favorite of mine. I wear it ALL the time. The second? A white plus size dress perfect for a variety of spring or summer occasions. I happened to wear mine to the same event (yes, you heard me, the exact same event) two years apart. Did I care? Nope! Did I love the dress each time? You bet I did!!

I #DressAndRepeat. Do you?

Devil in a (plus size) Blue Dress

HTML email (plussizebabydolldress.blogspot.com)plus size dress is the sexiest I’ve felt in a long time. I loved how the dress hugged my curves. Even my Wilson. I felt slinky. I felt strong. I felt all woman. And I was barely showing any skin. (Which brings me to another point- who says the one who shows the most skin is the sexiest? Pssh. Shape is sexy. Strategic skin is sexy. Let that one settle in for ya…)

I bought this dress with a date in mind. The kind of date where a girl knows she wants to look ah-may-zing. For a guy whose socks I wanted to knock off. Except, the socks I knocked off were my own. The person I amazed was myself. Every minute I spent in this plus size cocktail dress I felt completely aware of myself, my body and my power in the best way possible.

Picture
Forgive the super shameless moment as I show you the backside of this dress. Which Is MAGIC! No seriously. Strategically placed seams and rushing? Helllooooooo! I am not even going to lie, I can tell you straight up I totally loved the way this dress shaped my rear. If it can do this on me, imagine what it can do for you!

If you are in search for a eternally sexy cocktail dress, one that will leave them staring when  you walk by yet be tame enough to wear around colleagues and family, check this dress out!

The Lowdown: Igigi Ambrosia Dress
3 words I would use to describe this outfit are…
Sexy, classic and feminine. 

The fit was…
True to size if not a tad bit large. I am wearing a 3X. 

What I would change…
The price. BUT I believe the dress was 100% worth it. This is a go-to cocktail dress that I will have for years.  The fit and style is completely perfect as is.
