Transitional Stripes

The moment I saw this Mixed Stripe Dress from Eloquii, I knew I had to have it. I love the “sack” shape of it – but it is not so bag-like that it is frumpy. It’s a perfect dress to wear from spring to summer as the material is light and easy but it pairs well with leggings and a jacket. The minimalist shape and pattern are just a great addition to my spring wardrobe. 

I spent the day shopping for new glasses (I can’t wait to share those with you in a few weeks) and just walking around downtown with S. We shared an amazing cinnamon roll and iced coffee (YUM!) and also popped into LUSH to get my favorite spring bath bubble bar Ultraviolet. Are any of my readers LUSH fans? What are your favorites? 

OUTFIT DETAILS
Mixed Stripe Dress – Eloquii – Size 18/20 (TBH, i probably would have been fine in the 14/16, but I really doesn’t matter too much with a dress this shape)

Earrings – gift
Leggings – Spanx – Size XL
Leather Backpack – gift (via etsy)
Glasses – SEE Eyewear
Oxford metallic-tip shoes – Clarks UK

Plus Size Moto Jackets for Fall

A reader wrote in to ask if there were good places to buy plus size moto jackets. ABSOLUTELY! There are some great options especially right now – tis the seasons for a beautiful leather or faux leather jacket.  These are some of my favorites and they range from $40-$200 and sizes 18-24.  There are lots of options, but here is a good starting point!

See the full details from the image above and where to buy at my polyvore (or click the jacket image above)

My outfit above includes my favorite waxed denim moto from H&M last year along with a dress from Gwynnie Bee

I promise a full outfit post after the weekend – Hope you enjoy shopping for your fall jackets! Let me know what you’re buying on my facebook page
