PLUS SIZE FASHION TIPS

Choose tailored plus size fashion items. Baggy, loose fitting plus size clothing makes you look sloppy and bigger than you are. Tailored means women's clothing that is well fitting not too tight. If you feel self conscious at first ease your way into it with a well fitted jacket or pant and mix and match with your existing pieces. You will soon love the look and compliments and want more fitted pieces.

When layering plus size fashion separates, ensure 2 out of 3 of the pieces match. Or try different shade variations of the same color. Matching color pieces give the plus size woman a longer, leaner look.

Wear bright colored plus size fashion items closer to your face. This will draw the eye up and move attention away from anything you think is a figure flaw.

When choosing plus size fashion accessories, think vertical. Wear scarves tucked flat into an open collar, not tied around the neck. Earrings that are rectangular or oblong are flattering. Long necklaces or pendants should stop a few inches above your bust.
