Straight Size to Plus Size – And Just Like That

By request!  For my “Straight Size to Plus Size”  series, a plus size “And Just Like That” outfit.

This is one of Carrie Bradshaw’s outfits from Season 1.

And in case you aren’t aware, “And Just Like That” is a reboot of “Sex and the City.”

My Disclaimer

And here is my usual disclaimer.

As I’ve said, these “Straight Size to Plus Size” posts are some of my most popular, but I also get complaints that the “models” in the images aren’t “plus sized.”

So I just wanted to give a little background of why I do these types of posts:

We are all inundated every day by images of thin celebrities, models, and bloggers sporting the “latest looks,” i.e. clothing that doesn’t come in our size.

So I try to take these “unattainable” images and prove that, in fact, with some effort, plus size women can put these hot looks together.  

They are attainable!

And I try to take the effort, i.e. searching everywhere for the pieces, out of the equation.  

So as always, my main goal is to inspire and empower.

Ok, now back to the outfit idea!

Outfit  Details

I’m not sure I would go “full Carrie,” but a with a smaller fascinator and a special event, I just might.

I mean I kind of love everything about this outfit from the polka dot skirt and bateau neck tee to the embellished pumps.

Of course, I would have to go with some wide width flats.  But it still works! 

Also, I would swap Carrie’s pricey clutch for an affordable one.

And just like that… 

I’m ready to make an entrance everywhere I go!  Leggo!!!

  1. Thank you for your inspiration. I am in a small town in Wisconsin and us plus sized women needn’t be left out of the fun of fashion.

  2. Love this look although I’m not sure I can pull off a fascinator! I’ll leave that to Carrie Bradshaw. Can you check the link for the wide width flats? It seems to be broken

    Thanks

      1. Nonsense. You can pull off anything you want when it comes to fashion. I love the looks I get when I wear something that isn’t “accepted” in my city. It makes me feel brave and empowered. My coworkers tell me how brave I am that I wear white pants. That cracks me up! LOL.

  3. gorgeous!! I was gonna give my wallet a break but I can’t with this beautiful outfit, I just need it!

  4. This is what plus size fashion is to me — the ability to wear fashion that is highly advertised in smaller sizes only. I strive to obtain this myself. I have done this all of my plus-size life (I used to be a size 8 once upon a time). I copy looks that I see on thin mannequins or models with plus size alternatives.
    Thank you for this!! These are my favorite posts!!
