New Look for the Striped Jacket – OOTD

Posted on by

I am going to see the movie Jeff Who Lives At Home today with my friend Janet, I wanted to wear something comfy, so here is my outfit of the day (OOTD).  So I got out my Stripes in all Directions jacket that I had not worn to work yet, and I think I like it even more with the black pants, not too surprising.

I even wore the black shoes with white stripes and they are SO comfortable that I decided to try to buy another similar pair from Simply Be, but guess what, they are gone. I am so sad…affinity

Jacket: Torrid – Size 4X

Cami: Avenue – Size 26-28

Pants: Avenue – Size 28

Bracelets: Torrid

Necklace: JennyBird

Shoes: Simply Be (Body Star) 8EEE, and an 8EE would be plenty wide enough.

Casual Friday

Posted on by

On Fridays, like all of you, I dress a little more casually.  This is one of my favorite outfits.  It just feels like who I am.

Sweater: Torrid, 4X, it is kind of a shrug and it fits just above my waist

Cami: Avenue, size 26-28

Belt: Bob’s Belts, Size 50 – This is the largest one he makes in this 1.5 inch width and I have a couple of holes left on the belt so someone a little larger than a 4X might be able to wear it

Bracelets: Torrid – I love that they are large enough to go over my hand.  This is one set of bangles with the larger ones on one arm and the smaller ones on the other arm.

Jeans: Tripp, Size 28 (short) from Torrid

The Poncho is Back

Posted on by

I have noticed the poncho everywhere lately.  In fashion blogs, on Project Runway and even on 24 Hour Catwalk.  I have been wanting to check out IGIGI since they are local to San Francisco, my home.  I wear a size 26 -28 and it is a perfect fit, the belt is on the last rung but another one could be punched if you needed it.  I have some other IGIGI purchases I love but I will leave those for another day…affinity

Poncho: IGIGI – Size 26-28
