Vintage Inspired Dots

Moe — Tue, 15 May 2012 04:59:27 +0000

Get your polka dot on with the crimson or black En Vogue Vintage dresses from Igigi. I love the looks of this a-line dress with bra friendly straps and petite white dots. Worried about the bare arms? Don’t! It comes with a 3/4 sleeve shrug in white for perfect coordinating. This pretty dress comes in sizes 12 to 32 for $120.

This is such a fun looking dress — dots make me happy!

Million Ways Cardigan

Moe — Mon, 14 May 2012 20:04:33 +0000

Let it flow free, loop it the hips, or wrap it around tight. Just a few of the ways to wear the “Million Ways” Long Cardigan from Eliza Parker. This beautiful magenta colored wrap is even sweeter because it is $20 off (now $68). This made in the US layering piece is constructed of Rayon spandex so you know it is going to be soft and comfortable. It comes in sizes 10 to 28.

Casual Plus Size Dresses

Moe — Fri, 11 May 2012 03:57:56 +0000

I lead a pretty casual lifestyle but just because I like casual does not mean I live in sweats all day. That is why I am totally digging all the casual plus size dresses to be found at One Stop Plus. There are maxi dresses, print dresses, solid dresses, frilly dresses, smocked dresses, simple dresses and of course girly dresses. Here are a few of my favorites.

One Stop Plus features dresses from Denim 24/7, Jessica London, Woman Within, La Redoute and many more.

Crazy for Stripes

Moe — Wed, 09 May 2012 20:47:45 +0000

I think almost as fondly of stripes as I do dots especially when there are so many options to choose from this season alone. City Chic has over 400 tops to choose from from a wide variety of styles. They are taking full advantage of the fashion stripe extravaganza going on right now making it impossible for anyone not to find their favorite striped piece of clothing for this season. I found over twenty that I like alone but here are my absolute favorite picks (magic thirteen):

Are you rocking stripes this season?

Striped Maxi

Moe — Wed, 09 May 2012 03:14:56 +0000

I do not normally have a strong opinion about tube dresses with the smocked bodice but I absolutely love this Striped chiffon maxi dress from Lane Bryant. The colors are fabulous and it actually looks like it goes past the ankles. I think plus model Ashley Graham may be wearing it with the perfect shrug I mentioned last week. This Striped Chiffon Maxi is available in sizes 14 to 24 for $80

Prints from Igigi

Moe — Tue, 08 May 2012 00:56:21 +0000

Experimenting with prints has never been easier than with Igigi’s print dresses and tops. Take a look at these classic cuts and keep an eye out this spring and summer for even more fresh options (I am especially looking forward to the Rita Vintage Polka Dot Dress with the orange skirt and yellow polka dots):

From left to right:

The classic print of the Claudette dress is missed with a color blocked top half and coordinating belt.
The Cheryl Wrap Dress has a beautiful teal, navy, and gold mixed print is a wrap dress with pockets.
The Florica Dress mixes color coordinating prints on body and arms.
The Tatiana Dress looks like animal print mixed with blue on first glance.
The Infinity Tunic is back with a new print and two color options and is still versatile with five looks and two color choices.
