Hey curvy girls all over the world,
I am currently digging the tweed trend. I have always been a fan of tweed ever since I laid eyes on a Chanel tweed suit. when I was a high school student. I know a lot of young women who dislike tweed because the think its for the more mature woman and I completely understand. Tweed has such a sophisticated look and feel to it that its hard to see it as youthful. In my opinion, I think tweed paired with something casual or tough gives it a modern look and appeal. I like tweed with denim and I love tweed with leather. You may be interested to know that tweed is not just for the ladies, men can rock a tweed look too (you may think of university/college professors on TV and film) and it looks great on them too, from tweed suits to tweed shoes, yes they exist, so no matter what gender you are you can rock tweed based clothing any way that you want it. The trick is knowing how to pair it with other types of clothing that can complement the entire look so you have the best outfit for a day or night out. Sophistication never looked so modern.
Recently, I spotted this tweed boucle moto jacket (gifted) on the Simply Be website and I knew I just had to have it. The moto style just gave it a cool look and the multi-colored thread blended in the jacket added a feminine touch. This jacket can be worn with many things but for my first test drive, I decided to wear it with a faux leather skirt from Lane Bryant. I wanted to bring out the colorful threads in the jacket so I opted for a pink roll tab shirt from Calvin Klein Plus. I accessorized with silver jewelry from Forever21 and wore a pair of suede pumps from Vince Camuto. I plan to rock this jacket with jeans on the weekends.
What do you think of my look? Leave a comment
