This head to toe look from Lane Bryant would be perfect for a holiday office party–put together and professional, but still festive and fun! I love that this gorgeous green lace dress is swishy and pleated, with a cool color blocking detail. This modern blazer is SO chic, with it’s longline cut, gold-rimmed buttons, and leather lapel.
LEATHER AND LAYERS
I would never describe my personal style as grunge, but that doesn’t mean I don’t like to dabble and experiment with my looks! It was surprisingly easy to achieve since this look is basically what I love to wear during the fall–booties, leather jacket, and skinny jeans–but styled up a little bit with the addition of a plaid shirt tied around the waist to break up this dark look!
FALL FLORALS AND STATEMENT BOOTS
I love a great over the knee boot, so when I saw this statement pair at Walmart, they went straight into my cart! My fellow wide foot/wide calf babes know how difficult it can be to find a great pair of tall boots, so when these fit like a dream, I knew I had to share them. I particularly love that the OTK design tapers behind the knee, which means these are more comfortable to sit in. Additionally, the faux lace-up design on the sides is such a nice detail! These would look just as amazing tucked into skinny jeans and paired with a sweater for when the weather gets chillier!
THE CLASSICS
This season has brought back all of my favorite classics–tailored jackets, boots, and classic patterns like checks and plaids! Plaid and tweed are always classic, but are particularly on trend this season! You can bet that these will be returning in a big way, with everything from glen plaid blazers, to classic tweed overcoats, and even head-to-toe, menswear-inspired, checked suiting making the rounds.
10 YEARS AND COUNTING
Guys…TODAY marks the 10-year anniversary of Curvy Girl Chic! I wish I had paid attention to this upcoming milestone so I could share some cute, celebratory photos, or SOMETHING, but alas, I didn’t even realize it until I sat down at work today. A couple years ago, I unpublished the truly CRINGE-WORTHY content from the early days of this blog, but today, I went back into what are now drafts to look at what I had shared with you all. Were the outfits embarrassing? Yes. Was the writing crappy? Absolutely. (TBH, my writing is still terrible. :P) Do I ever regret starting this little old website a decade ago? NEVER.

THE OTHER ANIMAL PRINT
With the two looks in my last post focused solely on leopard print, I thought it only right to give a little love to the “other” animal print and feature an outfit highlighting snake print! As much as I love leopard, there’s something about snake print that just feels edgier! I love this cropped denim…
