BLACK OUT (TREND ALERT)



I might be jumping the gun a little by saying that black is a trend cause I can't remember a time when black wasn't in. However what I am talking about is all black from head to toe.The release of "Run This Town" is not my reason for this although it doesn't hurt my my case.Sum of the most fab fashionistas have been seen lately running around in all black this Summer.Who can blame them ? All black is always chic and lets not forget the sliming effect black is really hard to do any wrong by.With the last few summers being dominated by everything colorful,seeing all black is refreshing . Ladies take note all black is back.

Denim

Lots of girls(not just plus size) avoid jeans . Denim can be uncomfortable , and most times they never fit quite right . Having gone through this problem many times myself I know how hard it can be to find the right pair. So I decided to show you sum options that work well on most plus size shapes. your options are not limited to these but they are a good start.

The skinny

Allot of people will say that bigger girls should stay away from skinny jeans, but DON'T listen to them. Skinny Jeans are so in right now and more than likely they will be for a while . There is no reason any plus size girl should not have a few pairs of great fitting pairs of skinny jeans in their wardrobe. When looking for the perfect pair of skinny's keep fit in mind . Yes your skinny jeans should be skinny, but they should not be so tight that you can't breathe . Alos remember that if you find a fab pair that you like but don't fit quite as skinny as you would like don't discard them you can always have them tailored for around $5-$9.

Trousers and wide legs are perfect for almost all body types. With a simple shoe change from a flat to a heel a well fitted pair can take you from day to night easily.trousers and wide leged denim are also good for sliming your tummy or evening out top heavy figures.

Trendy Jeans


When it come to trends it's best not to splurge. What you like this season you may hate next season. Another thing about trends is they don't always work out. Depending on body type or the way you wear them trends may be fab or a mess so just have fun expirmenting with them .

Sadly the beautiful Naomi Sims has passed away from cancer at the age of 61. Naomi was the first black super model.In 1968 She was the first black model to appear on mainstream magazine, Ladies Home Journal . Sims also appeared on the covers of Essence,Life, and Cosmo. Ms.Sims was a trail blazer and paved the way for the young black super models of today.My deepest sympathies go out to her family.
