for Plus-Size Figures

This soft brown (machine washable) jersey knit dress is great for any body type as it drapes perfectly to hide any tummy issues you may have right now. The neckline of the dress draws attention up to your face while the gold cascading necklace and earrings instantly brighten the look. The beautiful brown leather stiletto boots add sophistication to the ensemble. And the sequined brown clutch is eye-catching without being over-the-top.

nice, safe choices, in general. a little matchy-matchy and slightly matronly? felt like each look could have been made slightly more youthful, but still accessible to a wide range of ages. for example, the second look could have used a pop of color -- possibly a teal blue scarf or necklace. the first look is a little too red-and-black. and the cardigan has a tie under the bust that i think would compete with the empire-waist on the dress. i think a simple heather grey cardigan (shrunken for something a little fun) would have been pretty. can't beat the prices, though!! www.dcstylefactory.wordpress
