A plus size summer boho outfit with a trendy button-front linen-blend peplum top. This is a top you could wear to work, but I chose to pair it with some capri jeans for an easy casual look. Then I added some statement earrings, a straw hat, and a rattan crossbody bag. And these Vionic sandals, which also come in wide width, will keep you looking chic while totally comfortable.
Wearing Linen
People often ask me how to keep their linen clothes from wrinkling. For one, linen is always going to wrinkle. Always. And really, that is part of the look. You know, that rich bougie b!tch look I love so much! And two, a linen-blend, like this top, will wrinkle less.
And be sure to read the care instructions: you want to hand wash or machine wash in a laundry bag on gentle in cold water. I often recommend ironing linen with starch, but in this case, you should only use a cool iron on the reverse side of the fabric. You can also dry clean, which may be your best bet.

Hi Alexa, Just wanted to say thanks and that your posts are very inspirational. I live in Denmark (am Danish) and many of the suppliers you refer to do not ship here, but I take your pictures as inspiration and go out and find my own. The US has so many options for shops for curvy people, we are pretty limited here and most of them seem to think “square” when they think of fashion for curvy people.
Thanks
Susanne
