Belle Avenue Faves Day Five

Doesn’t this top scream Daisy Duke? I love it. Summery and casual and only $26.99. What a bargain! It’s listed as polyester/spandex but the plaid portion looks like cotton to me. Currently it is only available in 1x. *** Topic Links * Get your own Scrunchie Sleeve top at Belle Avenue

Belle Avenue Faves Day Four

I love these new vintage wash jeans from Belle Avenue. Apparently there are diamond studs on the rear but what makes it for me is the waist. So atypical to a plus size jean. These jeans come in 2x and 3x which seems like odd sizing to me for jeans. Like most denim these...

Belle Avenue Faves Day Three

This green smocked top is an old favorite of mine. It is made of cotton which is always a favorite; especially in summer, but I like how the smocking is low instead of the usual empress style. It comes in sizes 1x – 3x and is $27.99. At the moment it is only available...

Belle Avenue Faves Day Two

This affordable dressy top from Belle Avenue is made classic by the simplicity that black and white offer. It comes in sizes 1x – 2x and is made of a polyester spandex blend. The faux tuxedo top is only $29.99. The satin sheen gives it a dressy appearance but I would so dress it...

Neapolitan Anyone?

No not the ice cream! I received Igigi’s newsletter today in which it announced the return of the Neapolitan dress. This dress can make anyone proud of their body. It looks great with or without the shrug and the splash of pink is so hot on the crossover top. This colour block dress comes...

The Short Substitute

I’m not a “short” person. Never have been. It probably has something to do with the pantie shorts I was forced to wear in gym class in highschool (back when gym was a requirement for graduations). I do however love capri pants, short pants, crop pants, whatever you want to call them. And being...

A Little Flamenco

Does the heat make anyone else tired. I just want to curl up on my desk and snooze. Wouldn’t be prudent so I went shopping instead. I found this great skirt at Zaftique’s plus size clothing store. There’s something Spanish about it. Or maybe Catherine Zeta Jones-ish from Zorro. A little Flamenco anyone? I...
