5 Shades of Torrid

I like Torrid... They are a little pricey for some of their items, but for the most part the quality of clothing is worth it.  With recent trends for plus size fashion being a little less conservative, I was wondering what Torrid would do to compete?  Well my question was answered with their new lookbook entitled "5 Shades of Torrid".. and allusion to the media grabbing, controversial book "50 Shades of Grey" <-- loved the book BTW!!  

Any ways, the items definitely caught me off guard.  Torrid, to me, has always been "safe" in their selection of styles and colors.  Maybe it's a sign of the times but the style choices are definitely more risque. 

I absolutely love this lace pull-over with the shorts.  It's simple but sexy. It has been hotter than Hades's cook out outside, so sometimes lace is all you need.




 Style #4 is chill and chic.. The heels set this outfit off.  I'm not a big fan of the 2nd outfit but it is still cute!!

It is hard enough trying to find clothes for big girls, but then being a young, twenty-something big girl, it is even harder.  So I am forever on the hunt for cute, trendy, plus size clothes.  
One site that I have stumbled upon is MsFullFigured.com.  I like the clothing on this site because it is colorful, unique and stylish.  I haven't seen too many of the pieces on other sites.  The designs are


Dive into Swim Season

For too long, as big girls we have hidden behind big t-shirts, sarongs and other cover-ups. Don't end up with the farmer's tan at the end of the summer because you had everything covered up but your head and your arms.  This summer bare it all with chic, sizzling hot swimsuits.  Flaunt your thighs and hips with these figure flattering suits.  Get that summer glow every girl dreams of!!

Muy Caliente Mami!!  The color, the fringe and you, make this suit the perfect combo for a sexy day at the beach. 



Victoriassecret.com- Kenneth Cole Plunge Monokini
This suit is in tribute to my girl, Erica P.  She would rock the heck out of any bathing suit, not caring about anyone's opinion  about it!!  You must be confident to don this sexy monokini, but why shouldn't you..ask any guy, bigger is better.



Old Navy-Women's Plus Ruched Slit-Neck Swimsuits 






24th & Ocean Plus Size Swimsuit, One Piece Polka Dot Swimdress

For the more modest diva, a swimsuit with a skirt or dress look can give you the shy, girl-next-door look.

THESE BOOTS WERE MADE FOR WALKIN'

Has this happened to you?  You go shoe shopping, see the perfect boots to go with an outfit you've been dying to wear, you actually find your size, you slip your foot in, you start pulling it up and then BAM! its stuck.  You can't get it up over your calf!!  I have had to leave countless boots in the store because of this!!  Well finally designers have gotten hip to the curvy calf and have starting making boots with wider calves.  Here are a few of the ones that I have found!

Lulu Cognac Knee-High Boot - Torrid.com

 I love this boot!  The cognac color makes it easy to match with any outfit!  The heel is just high enough that it gives you a little extra height without having to worry about your feet hurting later!


Madden Girl Women's Zandora Boot - endless.com

You can never go wrong with Steve Madden!!  This boot is definitely trendy and can go with your favorite jeans or your favorite skirt!  With a 16" calf with it is on the border of the plus size boot so beware this is not for every big girl!




Viva La Diva Rouched Boots - E Fit $89.00 -  simplybe.com


Cute isn't it!!  This boot can add a little pizazz to a plain pair of leggings or dress up a skirt.

 

MAGPIE-S $54.99 - ashleystewart.com

 

Great boot! It just makes me feel warm looking at it.  I'm not the biggest fan of fur but this style definitely makes me want to wear it.  Add these boots with a cute dress - FIERCE!!
