I’ve said on this blog numerous times that just because a store doesn’t carry a full plus line doesn’t mean you can’t fit it. This dress is a size 14 and let me tell you, I haven’t been a size 14 in about 3 years. I am about a size 18 now and this dress fits me better than some of my pieces from actual plus size stores. So, remember that it’s very important to try things on you never know.
To complete my look I went for vintage style accessories. I chose over sized shoulder skimming earrings from Aldo’s, a tassel necklace from Loft, a vintage bracelet from my mom, a satchel tote from H&M, and my fuchsia BCBG peeptoes. I received many stares as I road the D train to Lincoln center and once I hit the steps of Lincoln center I received compliments from my fellow fashion lovers.

I had this dress in my hand the other day about to try on, but something made me put it back… I have been regretting it every since.
Yep, I will officially be going back to my store tomorrow to get this dress. especially with H&M I always tend to ignore to sizing tag, because what matters most if the type of material that is used in a garment and how that piece is cut.

You are correct – it is not a usual look for you. But you wear it sooooo well! I love the color, I love the romantic shape and the pleats and the arms- what a great find. You look gorgeous girl!!

This dress looks gorgeous on you! I always wish I could wear this dusty rose color, but I’m so pasty white & pale that this color washes me right out, makes me look dead. You’re rockin’ it! Thanks for the reminder to try shopping in places where we assume we won’t find anything in our sizes – sometimes that’s where the best pieces are hidden!

Love the dress and accessories…just not the bag, the shape and colour are dull. You needed another pop of color!
Stephanie says
The dress looks really beautiful and the colour is divine against your skintone. You need to do a hair post on how you maintain and style it weekly cause it always looks on point 🙂

Kerissa says
Great find! You look dynamic. I tried this dress on but it wasn’t a good fit for a small bust. Love the pop of purple with the shoes. Can’t wait to see you winterize it before NY gets too cold (:

I love the dress! You look stunning!!!
Veronika says
I love that dress so much!
But my size is 10 and that dress is 12 so I doesn’t look as perfect as you do! If I knew that before, I would buy smaller one!
Anyway, really great look!
