Tye Dye Tankini

Not surprisingly, in with womens swimwear, the eighties are fighting their way back on the scene but unlike every day wear this is actually a good thing. It is the tye-dye fabric that totally makes this Cruz® Pink and Purple Plus Size Tie Dye Tankini. The sexy halter v-neck and empress cut are nice...

Plus Size Jumper

Now this is what a jumper is supposed to look like on a adult. Not those loose frumpy things I’ve been seeing with the crotch hanging down mid-thigh like a saggy diaper. I absolutely love this Jim Jumper from Rocawear. The cotton, polyester, spandex blend shows off the curves by hugging the body; but...

Plus Size Bridal

Wedding dresses for plus size women are incredibly beautiful. No, that is isn’t shock so much as it is relief. I ventured into a new (to me) shop this week that provides wedding attire for regular and plus size brides-to-be and was reminded of the wonderful variety now available. David’s Bridal provides multiple images...

Striped Swim Top

I’m not surprised to find this cute and trendy Aqua and White Striped Halter Swim Top from Torrid. Don’t let the large horizontal stripes scare you. One of the biggest fallacies is that plus size women shouldn’t wear large horizontal stripes. Now if this were a boxy t-shirt then I’d definitely say no. But...
