Who says fat girls can’t wear stripes? I love to wear stripes and I especially LOVE LOVE LOVE this jersey dress from ASOS! I paired it with some black tights [because it is still freezing in NYC] and a faux-leather jacket from forever 21+. I scored this very popular and sold out kate spade handbag on ebay! I love everything pink and I’ve wanted it since forever and now I shall wear it always. To finish the look I added some glitter wedges from Senso and my favorite necklace from Spike the Punch.

I scored this gorgeous sweater at an H&M outlet, from their MAMA [maternity] line. I loved the bold stripes, the big buttons, and the big pockets. I tried it on and I loved the oversized fit! It also has an A-line fit which makes this sweater look great over jeans, leggings, and dresses.
I am a huge fan of mixing prints so I paired this bold striped sweater with some fabulous red polka dot jeans from Forever 21+. I finished the outfit with red Aldo wedges and for a pop of color my new favorite BCBG leather fold-over clutch.
I’m allover printed jeans right now, here are some of my favorites: HERE, HERE, HERE, HERE

I know I’m super late on the neon trend but I was waiting for a really great neon statement dress… I found it! A neon pink skater dress with polka dot lace… could it be more me?!?!?! If only it had sparkles hehe. This dress seems like perfection but I had to get it tailored twice, it didn’t sit right on my petite torso [I’m 5’2”] and it needed to be taken in from the sides also. After all the tailoring I love it! I paired it with a black ASOS Curve bow belt and some fun Jeffery Campbell platforms.

Yayyy! NYC weather is nice again to bare legs! For a day spent running errands around Manhattan and having lunch with a good friend, I kept it simple and chic for this outfit.

Merry 1st of May everyone! It may be May but I have dug out my old tights yet again due to New York’s unpredictable spring weather. It may be chilly, but that doesn’t mean you can’t dress for spring, you just need a few extra layers. This is one of my favorite ASOS Curve dresses which I purchased last spring, all my friends have seen me in this dress during all seasons because its so versatile to dress up or dress down. Here I was on my way to class so I paired it with flats and my favorite jean jacket! I just made a few purchases from ASOS’ spring sale and I have some new pieces I’m really excited to share, stay tuned!

Here is another spring colored dress for spring. This coral dress is from last Spring ASOS Curve. I’m obsessed with this H&M black and white striped sweater with puffy sleeves, I want to wear it with everything!!! Normally, I’m totally anti-belts, but this ASOS curve skinny belt is small enough to put together a cute springtime look… and its PINK! This teal handbag I got at Century 21, its from Rampage and the perfect teal for color-blocking this season.

Black and white fashions are forever timeless. I will forever love stripes, and forever love black and white stripes. As NYC Spring weather continues to be totally unpredictable, a blazer is a great way to polish off an outfit. This Simply Be blazer will forever be my favorite black blazer, I love the high shoulder pads. The striped top is from Forever 21+ as well as the black jeans [they come in “short”… yay for us petite plus ladies]! Aren’t these Dorothy-esque red ASOS heels the cutest thing ever!!!

As a grad student, most of my weekdays I dress very casual. Here I’m wearing a t-shirt from Forever21, and my favorite jeggings from Calvin Klein. A great way to revamp the classic jeans, sneakers and a t-shirt look is to add on a blazer. I love vintage blazers and this hot pink one was a $9 fabulous find at a salvation army in Philadelphia. My favorite thing to look for at thrift stores are blazers. Try everything on and ignore the size on the tag, the important thing is that the arms fit (every plus-sized princess knows there’s nothing worse than having a jacket that’s too tight on the arms… ugh so uncomfortable)! My new school bag is from Cambridge Satchel and my sunglasses are Prada.
What I’m Wearing: Blazer- thrifted (salvation army), Jeggings- Calvin Klein via ideeli, t-shirt- Forever21+, bag- Cambridge Satchel, Watch- Betsey Johnson, Sunglasses- Prada, Sneakers- Vans

Just because its January doesn’t mean you cant turn up the heat with your wardrobe! While New York has been having several cold, dull, and dreary days you can always brighten your mood with some sparkle. These ASOS booties are the perfect glittery statement shoe. Here I paired my glitter booties with a polka dot City Chic top and a tulle skirt from GAP. Remember just because its cold doesn’t mean you have to hide all your favorite skirts, invest in a great pair of tights and pair them with some cute booties to keep you warm and stylish.
