Let's talk real life, every day, plus size street style. You know, the stuff people actually wear. There are certain wardrobe basics that make your life easier while earning you style points. Looking stylish doesn't mean recreating the wheel, just reimagining basics.
My must have basics:
Jean jacket (in a light or medium rinse)
Cotton dresses in any style that suits you (go for classic patterns like stripes, polka dots, animal print and versatile solids like black, navy, grey)
White sneakers
That's it, so simple! You probably already have these items in your wardrobe. If not, allow me to make my case for why you should.
These pieces are all awesome, comfortable and totally wearable in a variety of ways. You might be thinking you'd get bored or burnt on on such simple basics. The magic happens in the accessories. Add a baseball cap for a fun weekend look. Add a necklace and earrings for the office. Add a fun pop art bag and heart shaped sunglasses for a unique, "Why didn't I think of that?" look. There's literally no way to mess it up! It's fool proof, comfortable fashion. That's the dream, right?
The next time you see a pulled together babe on the street, ask yourself, is she a genius? Maybe, but most likely she's just someone who has figured out the ingenious style hack of layering basics.
