Another spring outfit with blue wide leg pants for my “plus size on a budget series!” 

Plus Size on a Budget – Blue Spring Outfit

My “Disclaimer”

I want to prevent some anticipated feedback.  So please keep these things in mind:

• “Budget” is relative.  Some people easily spend $300 on sunglasses, while other people allocate $300 for their annual clothing budget.
• You may be able to find these items elsewhere for less.  These are just some “budget-friendly” finds I have come across.  And I typically don’t link to clearance items because they sell out and then people are disappointed.  Also, I have no way of linking to thrift stores, but obviously, if you want to check out your local thrift stores, I think that is a great idea!
• Recycle & reuse.  As with all of my posts, I hope that you can use the pieces you already have in your wardrobe.  Additionally, I assume that you can reuse all of the pieces below in other combinations with things in your closet to create a variety of looks.  Meaning, I think it is unfair to judge the expense of one outfit as though that is the only way to wear the pieces.

Life is Short, Wear Stripes

I often hear “Should plus size people wear stripes?”

If you’re unsure about stripes, please read this post “Are horizontal stripes REALLY making you look fat?,” written by Melissa at Suger Coat It. 

She explains, “No, horizontal stripes won’t make you look fat. Only being fat makes you look fat.  And you know what, that’s okay.”

I think Melissa does a fantastic job of breaking down this outdated “rule” regarding plus sizes and stripes. 

Outfit Details

Another casual plus size spring outfit idea with bright blue wide leg pants, as seen on this post. 

Pair the bright blue wide leg pants with a black and white striped shirt. If you prefer a short sleeve, you can try this one. 

Add a trench coat jacket for spring showers. 

Tie the entire look together with these gorgeous yellow ballet flats. They definitely make the outfit pop! 

Accessories

Top the look with some oversized square sunglasses.

I have these sunnies in black.  I love them! 

And they look just like some Fendi shades but at a fraction of the price.

This bag is stunning and looks quite similar to the DeMellier “Midi New York” bag, but at a much lower price.
