Top 10 Fall 2010 Curvy Fashion Trends

The first thing to know about looking fabulous this fall is to know your size and how to dress it! Appreciate your curves, dress to fit them, and let our your sexiness!
So here are my Top 10 Fall Must Haves for us curvacious ladies...enjoy :)

1.       Fitted Cardigans
            Don't make the mistake in wearing baggy, oversized cardigans. Wearing clothing that's too big is actually making you appear heavier. Instead, go for a fitted cardigan that buttons right under your chest & above your belly button.

2.      Dark Colored Pants
            These should be your best friend year round but are especially chic during the Fall/Winter months. Focus on the details!! Large back pockets will take off about 10lbs from your backside!


3.      Scarves, Scarves, Scarves!
           They are my FAV-O-RITE!! They are the perfect addition to pull any outfit together and to add extra warmth. Use them as a way to add color to darker outfits..go with colors that enhance your hair color, make-up, and skin complexion.



4.      A-Line Silhouettes
           This sihouette is perfect for full figures, it's the ulitimate camoflauge! The hemline stops at the smallest part of the leg and is them same width as the hip which gives a slimmer overall appearance! A skirt or dress that sinches at the waist with a fuller bottom is what you're looking for!




5.     Animal Print Accessories
          GRRRR!! I love animal prints! Just be careful because they pull attention to where they are placed, make sure you are adding them in places you want to flaunt! If you have a great waist, use a belt! If you have good legs, wear a fabulous shoe! A scarf is a great way to wear this trend!
      Just remember, wear them where you want people to notice them!




6.     Structured Tops    
          Tops with no shape make you appear shapeless and sometimes boxy. Chose tops that have darts or seeming just below the bust or around your natural waist line to provide structure and accenuate your curves.


7.    High Heels (The Miracle Worker)
        High Heels will never do you wrong! Wear them, wear them all the time! They make your legs look long and lean, and who doesn't want that?  If you want to maximize the effect, then wear monochromatics like black leggings with black booties.
      A chunky heel will give better support and more comfort :)




8.    Jeggings
        These are a big fall trend, they look like jeans but feel like leggings! Be careful on how you decide to style these though, rock them with a flowy top that falls to your hips with a wide belt around your wasit and mid-calf boots.




9.    Slouch Boots
          I know it can be such a pain trying to find cute mid-calf, high-calf boots for us ladies, but they are out there! Without having to find ways to stretch them, look for slouchy boots! They provide a little bit more wiggle room and easily camoflauge bigger calves. Don't always go for the flat boot, try one with a heel too!




10.   Wide-Leg Pants
           I think I may the most excited about the wide-leg pant coming back! A denim trouser is my heart & soul! Although the skinny jean is still here to stay, many of us should avoid a tapered ankle. Try a wide-leg trouser in fall colors such as camel, chocolate, denim, or basic black.

I love this blog because I hate when curvy girls complain about not being able to look trendy. I mean I don't have that problem because I am not curvy but I know that there are plenty of great ideas for curvy woman. Thank you for putting it out there. This is very informative.
