Styling Tips for Plus Size Ladies To Beat The Summer Heat
Summer is really hot this year, and everyone is feeling it. It is harder for plus-size ladies. Most ladies shy away from showing too much skin, so look for affordable plus-size tops that will flatter them and be comfortable. However, with little styling tips, you can have a stylish summer and not feel uncomfortable. Here are some of such styling tips for plus-size ladies.
Let’s start with the perfect summer dress. It is time to wear bright colours and prints, so don’t shy away from them. Look for a fabric that will flow easily and not cling to your body. Don’t go for full-length summer dresses, especially if you are on the short side. Go for those dresses that are mid-length and will end just below your knee or a little above your ankles. If you have thicker arms, go for 3/4th sleeve dresses, making the arms look slimmer. Wrap dresses are also a great choice as they accentuate your waist and give you the most desired hourglass figure.
Skirts are most comfortable to wear during such hot temperatures. But when shopping, plus-size women are often in a dilemma regarding which to buy. The best option is to go for a midi skirt. Such a skirt hides the hip area, while the length means your legs are open to the air. As for design, if you love a summer print, go for smaller prints. A skirt with large prints will only make you look heavier.
No rule says plus-size women can’t wear shorts. With the temperature rising daily, shorts are often the best option for a casual look. Go for shorts that are made of cotton or such breezy fabrics. Keep the length just above the knee. As for styling them, wear a short-sleeved top that can be tucked in the shorts and pair it with flat shoes and a printed bag. Don’t forget a belt, as it will accentuate your waist. And with it, you are ready for that pool party or day trip to the beach.
For that gym-to-girls day-out look, go for plus-size leggings in stretchable and breathable fabric. Don’t go for full-length leggings; go for capri or ankle-length ones. Pair it with a white or neutral-coloured tank top in the gym and a wrap top afterwards.
