2 CHIC PLUS SIZE OUTFIT IDEAS WITH ASHLEY: FALL/WINTER

Which one would you wear?! Are you a more timeless, neutral gal or do you like to have fun with color? I know, some of you may be like myself and can’t be boxed in to one category. I personally love both styles and can see myself wearing each of them!

LOOK ONE

TOP (XXL) | SKIRT (18) | COAT (18/20) | SHOES | BAG | EARRINGS

This houndstooth coat is everything, to be honest. It fits beautifully. It’s a bit oversized, but, per usual, I’m here for that. If you’ve been around here for a while then you know, I’m no stranger to a tulle skirt! I love nothing more to live out my childhood dreams of being some form of a fashion-barbie-princess and so in my opinion, the more tulle the better! This may surprise you, but I actually think a black tulle skirt like this is extremely versatile. You can dress it up or down — or like, even medium dressy. (Is that even a thing?! Ha!) Love the simple ribbed tan crewneck top paired with the black. The pointed flat mule is everything — pair these shoes with so many outfits and they’re timeless! I pulled the red bag into the mix because I felt like it needed a strong statement piece to tie it all together. The result? A look that I totally dig and can see myself wearing fo years.

Size/Fit details: As a reminder, I am 5’8/18/20/2x and I carry most of my weight in my belly/hips. I share this with you as a reference to hopefully help you pick the right size for you! The skirt runs true to size and has very little give. I suggest sizing up if you are unsure. I am wearing the 18. The top runs true to size as well, and is more of a crop, which is perfect for tucking into skirts or anything high-waisted. The coat runs a little generous, I am wearing the 18/20.

LOOK 2

DRESS (18) | COAT (2X) | BOOTS (WIDE CALF) | EARRINGS | HANDBAG

Guys, I’m not joking. If you want a cozy, lighter layer that feels like a dream AND keeps you warm… this is it! It’s on sale right now in several colorways and I am struggling because I want them all, ha! I love this camel color, I feel like it is the perfect warm neutral to add to any autumnal color palette. I paired it with this beautiful muted mauve-y floral mini dress and chocolate over the knee wide calf boots! The wide calf boots are SO timeless and classy. I am so impressed by how high end they look and feel! Super comfortable and highly recommend. I threw in this chic olive handbag that literally can go with anything, and these gold hoops will never go out of style!

Size/Fit details: As a reminder, I am 5’8/18/20/2x and I carry most of my weight in my belly/hips. I share this with you as a reference to hopefully help you pick the right size for you! The dress runs true to size and if you’re unsure about length, size up. I am wearing the 18. The faux fur coat runs true to size and I can button it with a little room in it.
