Increase Glam Quotient in Plus Size Shrugs

Plus-size women have a lot on their hands when it comes to dresses. But wearing the right outfit not only increases the glam quotient but can give the petit types a run for their money too. The critical point is to carry off what you wear in style without bothering about your plus size.

A shrug is like a jacket worn over any outfit, from evening dresses to jeans and top. Women’s plus size shrugs cover up the flab you want to hide while still being in fashion. With shrugs on, you can wear dresses that bring out your positive features while helping you be confident.

While recommending women’s plus size shrugs several factors have to be taken into account. Since shrugs are worn over outfits, there is the additional task of matching the two, either complementing each other or clashing with regards to print and color. Hence, when you buy a shrug with a specific outfit in mind, wear it to the store to check the matching factor.

The first point to consider is the fabric of women’s plus size shrugs. Here you will be spoilt for choice with the range available. Select a material that falls silkily and loosely over your body. You can choose a lace shrug to go with jeans and a T-shirt or a short shrug that stops at the waist to match with an evening dress. Whatever the material might be, ensure that the arms are covered. For plus-size women, this is where the flab is most noticeable.

Don’t forget the weather too. A heavy-knitted shrug worn over a light cotton outfit will be ideal for winter.

  A bolero jacket is worn over another dress or outfit but tied at the front and stopping at the waist. Bolero jackets have been around for ages and follow the design of the jackets worn by Spanish matadors during bullfights. Since then, bolero jackets have been the trendiest clothing for women around the world. A bolero jacket is an all-weather outfit. The lace ones are ideal for summer while the heavier brocade or velvet ones help keep out the winter chill. Further, a bolero jacket with flowery patterns can be worn for informal outings with friends while the classier and more expensive ones are ideal for formal evening wear for parties or a dinner date. However, a plus size bolero jacket   is a blessing in disguise for heavier women. Generally, it is seen that fat accumulates in plumper women around the upper arms and the mid-riff. With a half or full-sleeved bolero, the upper arms are covered and you can wear your sleeveless dresses in summer and step out in style. Addi...

Women’s fashion – Basics of dressing casually

Every season, you spend a fair share of your money to refresh your wardrobe. Yet, making sense of which pieces to stay away from and which merit your time and money can be an overwhelming task, especially in the case of casual wear. With the mention of a casual dress, the first thing that comes to your mind is "comfort". However, comfortable can turn into sloppy within no time if you don’t pay heed to certain casual wardrobe basics. Purchase your informal garments in a similar way you buy dresses for your workplace. It is advisable to invest in a single statement piece like a fringe denim jacket and use it around fundamental styles to create different blends. Wasting money on random "bits and pieces" items will, in all probability, confuse you and you will end up with a haphazard look. Accessories form an integral part of a great casual look.

But the cardigan has not been a fashion icon since the 90s when it was worn in a disheveled scruffy way – plus sizes draped over dresses and jeans. But now, cardigans are back on the catwalks of the fashion capitals of the world, thanks to influencers like Gucci, Prada, and Christopher Lane. Plus size cardigans and shrugs have been an integral part of Gucci’s minimalist aesthetic designs over the past few seasons, worn over midi-length skirts. Prada, a great fan of the cardigan is offering plus sizes to be worn over pencil skirts. And as for Christopher Kane, it is an altogether different ball-game.

What has worked in favor of the designers is that several young i...
