Plus Size Wardrobe

When trying to have style as a BBW and super sized BBW it can be daunting. I wanted to offer some tips from two people that are just like everyone else. Kelly Osborne isn’t super skinny but she still looks amazing on the red carpet. Whitney was chosen to be America’s Next Top Model and now has an amazing modeling career.

Be comfortable with yourself

People are always saying that the clothes make the man. I’m just the opposite; I believe that the man or woman makes the clothes. A person should be comfortable in the clothes that they are wearing. There personality should be the first thing to show through. Whitney and Kelly both prove this with their amazing personality in front of the camera.

Accentuate your waistline

I don’t know if you have noticed but both Kelly and Whitney are wearing waistlines that ride higher on their waist. The reason these two women are creating this type of waistline is because it causes your torso to become longer. The longer the eye has to travel down to the hem of your skirt in fashions, the thinner you will look.

I know that I don’t have any waistline at all, so I have to make sure that I wear a belt at all times. If I didn’t, I would be one big ball of stomach.

Find your style

Last but not least, take time to look through the fashion magazines and fashion catalogs. Decide what kind of style you want to have each season and go for it. Any man or woman who is comfortable in her own fashion is always fashionable.

It’s winter, and that means yet another style change for BBW men and women around the world. So what is in style for the next three months? Boots, Belts, and Bling should be a staple in the closet.
Let’s start with the Bling. The shiny stuff that I’m talking about is not jewelry and jewels. It’s anything that is in silver, gold, or has a metallic reflection. The best bet is just to stick with the handbags or shoes.
I’ve tried to include everything I could find for the guys because large men can be fashionable too.

Belts can be a great accessory, depending on the size and style. Who hasn’t seen a celebrity wear a belt with a dress, t-shirt, or more? Spend time trying on different belt styles and use the ones that flatter your body type.
Belts are great for creating curves on the body for both men and women. No one wants to see someone looking like a runway. Large women and men shouldn’t feel bad about showing some curves.

When wintertime comes around, I always say that its time to switch over to boots. Uggs are still in fashion for Winter 2008.
The Uggs in the top left hand side of this picture really work well with a pair of tucked in jeans and a light sweater. I should know, they are my wife’s favorite pair.

Winter is here and that means that we have to bundle up! Sometimes that can be hard for large men like myself. I know that my wife has a problem with it too. She’ll see this colorful frock but they won’t have it in her size. Then I have to see here frown till she kind find something.

I can’t stand bright colors but my wife loves them. So I wanted to provide some places where both men and women can find great coats. Something that will fit your style and your pocketbook too!

Land’s End has a baby blue jacket with hood. There is a pair of Wellie Boots to match the color of the jacket. Land’s End also has men’s raincoats for around $50. The largest selection they carry is a 3x.

PRK-2 at Burlington coat factory has a fake fur lined aviation jacket for under $50. It fits a size 4x for guys. I’d buy it but I’m afraid that my wife would steal it from me. What is it about women and fur?

“Luxury darling!” The wife says. Hmph!

That’s ok the wife has found a Fitz Wright at Burlington in red. It’s longer than the men’s jacket.
