HM Spring Floral Dress + Brand New Newsletter

Don’t be fooled by the model on the website wearing this dress.  You might be missing out on a gorgeous spring dress.

When I first saw this dress I was immediately attracted to the pattern, color and ruffle detail but if I looked at how it was styled on the model well I would have totally passed on this dress.

It was way oversized and just looked slovenly to be quite honest.

That’s why I love doing what I do.  As a style influencer I am your resource as the in-between of the consumer and the model.  I’m both.

I can present to you a styled look that is quite different from what is provided on an e-commerce site or in-store mannequin and at the same time I’m the consumer that goes through the trial and error of online shopping so you don’t have to.

I want Musings of a Curvy Lady to be a resource for you not just for fashion advice so that’s why I’m so excited to be sharing with you a brand new and improved newsletter.

This newsletter from the desk of yours truly will be a beautiful way to keep up with all of my musings.

I will be sharing exclusive content, anecdotes, and my weekly favorites all in one space and delivered to you inbox.

I hope you continue to enjoy the content that I bring to you here on the blog but the newsletter is just a personal extension of all that.  You can sign up here if you haven’t already!

Eloquii Cropped Denim Jacket + Mom Jeans

So the coronavirus has made its way to shopping centers, The Silos, Disney World and music festivals left and right are closing up shop.  It sounds like Coachella, the biggest spring music festival, will be cancelled due to the novel virus and I’m not surprised or mad at it.

Personally, I’m not really one for crowds.  Even before the virus I would limit my time in crowds because I was anxiously concerned about tuberculosis or the flu.  What can I say, I just can’t shut the nurse side of my brain off…

But any who, here I am in the safety of my quiet neighborhood creating some Coachella inspired fashion.

I love a good monochromatic look and this cropped denim jacket and mom jean duo is something I haven’t really seen made in plus.  So I was excited to give this trend a go and of course make it my own.

For reference I’m wearing a size 22 in both the mom jeans and jacket.  The jeans have some stretch and I could have probably done a 20.

I paired the look with a bodysuit but unfortunately the one I’m wearing is sold out but here is one with a similar vibe.   Kept the neutral vibes with suede tan booties and my wide brim boater hat.

Right now the cropped jacket is only $39 and the mom jeans are 40% off making them just $45!  Definitely a great deal for this look that has an expensive vibe.

Stay stylish, safe and healthy my friends.

Spring Neutrals + Anthro Diana Knit Mini Dress

This outfit to me is the perfect representation of that in between season between Winter and Spring.

Warm weather is on the horizon but cool breezes remind us of the frigid cold – so the real question is how do I dress for this weather?

This mini wrap dress is made of the coziest material that is sure to keep you warm but the length and style is fun for Spring.

Paired with OTK boots it’s a great way to pretend it’s Spring but still keep those legs warm.

No surprise this look is featuring pieces from A+ Anthropologie.  I know many of you haven’t tried the extended line yet.  So I have to ask – What are you waiting for?

Anthropologie offers free shipping and returns for plus so there really isn’t any risk in trying.  Definitely sign up for the AnthroPerks that way you can stay in the know of the awesome sales that Anthro has.

I personally score many of my Anthro pieces while on sale.  It’s a great way to build the wardrobe you want at the price point you will love.  Right now there is an additional 25% off their sale.

BlankNYC Tapered Faux Leather Pants

I think I just found the most perfect pants for Spring!

These BlankNYC Tapered Faux Leather pants I scored at Anthropologie last month have easily become one of my favorite purchases so far this year and I have been completely obsessed with them.

Initially I bought the size 24W (I’m wearing that size in the images in this post) but thought they were a little too bag in the front so I exchanged them for a 22W and the fit was perfect.

I’ll be sharing another style post with the new size so you can see the difference.

The tapered pant leg in this fun color give a snazzy way to wear your tees and button down shirts tucked in.

Some more specs about these pants are that they run large and have an adjustable drawstring that can easily wrap around twice.

The only issue I have with the pants are that you can’t wash or dry clean them.  You can only take a damp cloth to wipe it down.  There is this weird smell that comes from the viscous material that I just can’t get rid of.  Other than that I love them.

I styled them with a classic white button down, suede booties  , a wide brim rancher hat and a pink crossbody that happened to match perfectly.

Keep a lookout for these pants restyled multiple ways this season. I just can’t get enough!
