Hey Lovelies,
Haven't
done a wish list in a while! As a plus size girl, who is obsessed with
fashion, I've never confined myself to Plus Size stores. My style is
definitely trend lead, and I love keeping up to date with all the latest
trends and styles. Unfortunately some plus size retailers aren't quick
enough off the mark. Now don't get me wrong they has been massive
changes with Asos Curve, Simply Be,Yours Clothing and Evans becoming a
lot more trend driven, which is great. But as there not on my high street
here, I tend to stick to the shops that are, and if I'm purchasing from
one of the above companies I do so online. I've said it before, and I'll say it again. I try everything I like on, regardless of the size and have found some gems, that I still treasure to this day! It's all about experimenting and trying different styles on girls :)
River Island
Going up to a size 18, River Island
is great for plus size girls on the smaller end of the scale. Their
sizes can be quite generous, and they often have loads of elasticated
waisted skirts, and over sized tops! They're my go to shop on the high
street for Blazers, pretty skirts and amazing accessories. The Beaded
Headband...ERMAGAWD. I Love the Chanel inspired jacket, it will go lovely over a plain black dress and heels for night time, or equally as nice with jeans, and a white tee for during the day! The Pink jumper is very similar to a WildFox one, I had my eye on but for less than half price, I think I may have to pick this one up instead! Demin/denim look skater skirts are everywhere at the moment, and I love this one here! You can wear now with tights, but when the weather gets warmer it would be lovely on it's one, with a nice tanned leg!
Topshop
A lot of plus size girls loathe Topshop, I know they stop at a size 16, but that doesn't mean you can't go in and try things on! Some people have been ranting saying they get "funny looks" by the sales assistants in there, but I for one have never experienced that. I think people are being a bit paranoid. Anyway... Here's what I'm looking at the mo from Topshop! I love their basics range, I've a couple of these dresses now, and there so easy to wear, they're flattering. They always have gorgeous knitwear, with funky motifs and colour! The crop top, is making huge comeback, and I'm just contemplating if I'm brave enough to rock this one! I'd pair it with a high waisted skirt, and little flats on a hopefully hot day during the Summer! I'm getting more and more into body con dresses as of late, and love this graphic print one! There's one thing you can't beat Topshop on, and that's their body con dresses!
New Look
New Look in my opinion has come on leaps and bounds. It has it's own Plus Size Section Here, and there normal range goes up to a size 18. There price points are definitely the lowest out of these three, and their quality is on par. Their clothing is very similar to both River Island and Topshop, so It's worth a look to see if you can get something similar with them. I for one, love their jeans! I'm not normally a jeans girl, but I just so happy to love the fit of these jeans! Their jeans are all good quality, and wash really well! Their jewellery is nothing short of amazing at the moment, and hopefully I'll pick up a few gorgeous pieces when I'm in London next weekend. I love this multi coloured speckled jumper, it's perfect for Spring, when it's still cold out, but you don't want to wear dark drab colours!
Well that's my Wishlist done for another week! I found it so hard narrowing them down!
If you would like me to do a plus size version, with all the plus size stores and my favourite picks, please let me know :)
