Curves & Prints

photo credit: jiggyloves

Curves and Prints are a lovely thing! Wearing prints camouflages problem areas and are really fun to wear.  In the photo, I'm wearing a printed jumpsuit by Anthropologie (no longer available), which I love and it's great for my curves.  It pulls up, no annoying zippers or buttons.   A lot of the time it's hard to find quality and cute pieces to fit just right, but I think I found some cuties that my curvy reader will love.  Here are some of my go-to online shops. . .

Who's That Girl...

streetstyle-paris fashion week spring 2013

Loving her style, but not sure who she is.  They list her name as Meo Meo, but can't find anything about her.  I see her streetstyle everywhere during fashion week.  The navy velvet jumpsuit is super cute, along with that Chanel chain belt and Fendi shoulder bag.  I bet that jumpsuit is vintage! Ha!

If you know...do tell!

Floral prints are a must for this Summer...the bigger the better!  Sometimes floral prints can be a bit matronly, but if you stick to an updated silhouette you will be less matron and more chic.  Mix prints by pairing a floral skirt or pant with a striped top like this or keep it safe with a solid.  I'm looking for the perfect pair! My mom has some wide leg pants from the late 80s early 90s that I've got to get my hands on.  I did just get these on sale...loving them!

Happy first day of May!
