There is a season that every person in the world hates or to put it more softly, likes the least. It keeps changing from person to person and from geographical locations of where that particular person is based.
There is however a common thread that binds people all over the world when it comes to disliking a season, and that thread is the season of summer. While it is not the worst of seasons, it supposedly lacks some of the things that the other seasons have in plenty.
The season of rainfall brings along glorious long drives and beautiful atmosphere. The season of fall brings picturesque moments within the cities while the winter is all about snowy and dewy mornings. What does the summer possess then?
We have some ideas that might change your perspective and make you see the season of summer in a better light (no pun intended). Summer is one of the most comfortable seasons from a lot of perspectives.
It has a lot of ease when it comes to traveling unlike the rains, it has a very pleasant atmosphere when compared to the winters.
As for fall, if you look with eyes wide open you could see that the wonderful views and shades of the sky are available at dusk during the summers as well. If all of this is true, which we think it is, why would one not want to have an ecstatic time during the summers.
There are a lot of ways one could do that, through parties, through vacations and through some casual hanging out with friends.
The spice in the summer can be added to some beautiful dates with your partner, by engaging in some lovely wine tasting and the rest of the likes.
Summer can also have its thrills with visits to amusement parks and the chill evenings and nights with movie dates with your squad.
What we are basically trying to say is that summer vibes are just as good as those in any other season, and all you have to do is plan it out clearly.
While you are planning for the summer or engaging in some surprise activities, there is one more thing that will come to your aid for every single such occasion. And that help is the one provided by your wardrobe and the clothes in it.
A few years ago, for plus size ladies, it was a tad bit difficult to find the clothes that they loved because there were a limited number of options and styles available.
Now, however, the difficulty has reversed in nature because of a lot of styles, outfits and color combinations available for the plus size ladies as well.
Almost all the clothing styles that are made for the regular sized people are also available in the plus size section because of the increased amount of focus on this section.
This has resulted in a dilemma for the plus size ladies and that is where we come in. We are here to help you figure out what to wear during the summer, right from the styles to the do’s and don’ts that you can adopt during the summer season.
The do’s and the don’ts
Follow the trends
Well, this is a no brainer to be honest, yet the do’s and don’ts also begin with this very point. We all love to follow the latest fashion trends the industry’s top designers have to offer.
But, given that not all body shapes are the same, most plus size women have difficulty knowing which ones they should keep in their closets.
It’s best to stick to knowing the style trends for your size and curves to get the best advice.
Comfort comes above trends though
The general rule in plus size fashion remains the same. Take note that trends are for guidance alone. Comfort remains of paramount importance.
So, pick comfort over any other factor when choosing your clothes, because if you feel good, generally, you’ll look good too.
Comfort will stay with your forever, trends do not always last an eternity (a few exceptions to the rule are there for sure).
Small prints are to be stayed away from
Small and super tiny prints aren’t recommended for curvy ladies as it draws attention to some body parts that aren’t meant to draw attention to.
Consider this tip: The larger the prints, the better, as it accentuates the best in you and brings energetic vibrancy compared to the former. But, keep the prints in uniform fashion, so they will only flaunt your best assets and not those you actually want to hide.
Although this rule is not hard and fast, the probability that this turns out to be right for plus size ladies is quite high.
Keep experimenting
Flaunt those curves without any insecurity by dressing well. Wear the proper sized clothing that celebrates shapes than hide your figure.
By experimenting with clothes, you will be able to find the best ones that fit and accentuate your best assets, whether it’s your hips or chest.
While there are always basic styles that help you dress well, over the years it has been seen that experimentation has gone a long way in helping people stand out from the crowd. Who knows, this time it might be your calling.
Monochrome dressing should not be overused
Use it, don’t abuse it. Monochrome can indeed work wonders by creating one long, lean, continual line; but simply throwing on random pieces in the same shade can also make you look sloppy.
To avoid that trap, play around with different fabrications. Add an item with texture or a material like chiffon and accessorize with a pop of color, rather than wearing the same fabric from head to toe.
People love nudes, but it shouldn’t be the exact same color as your skin tone or there will be no delineation between where your clothes end and you begin. It is among the most common phrases ever, but it holds true here. Too much of anything can be problematic at times.
The clothes that will help during the summer
Having discussed the do’s and don’ts, we also have a few styles and trends of clothing lined up for you that will help you during the summer season. Check them out.
