I'm obsessed with stripes! LOL! What am I not "obsessed" with right curvy divas?! It is not about being obsessed though, I'm going to start using the word "passionate" instead, much nicer! So, I'm so very passionate about stripes. Over the years, since I was growing up in fact, I've always heard that girls with hips and too much going on with their bodies, should not wear stripes, especially horizontal stripes.
To that I say...."PFFfftttt"! What's with all these rules for us curvy girls I wonder? I advocate for us to dress the way we want to and be confident in who we are. I'll get off my soap box for now. Take a look at my latest style-look, I wore these to the office recently, on Casual Friday. I wore a white shirt under my dress and belted it. Belting it defined my waist and made me feel oh so chic!
Because my stripes were colorful, (summer fun) I tried not to over-accessorize.
In the look below, I wore a fabulous graphic tee and a maxi stripe skirt!
So what do you think? Does it make my hips look larger? I don't think so. It is all in the way you style yourself my curvy divas. It is also in the confidence you feel in what you wear. So have fun with your look and don't be afraid to try something new!
