I found this article “7 Perfect Office –Ready Pieces for Curvy Girls, by Caroline Pirozzolo.
It give some great tips, for dressing for the office. I struggle every morning, asking myself, what to wear? I confess, my closet runneth over, and I still feel like I don’t have much to choose from. Do you ever feel like you don’t have the right top, to go with the right bottom, or the outfit you bought last week, you don’t like anymore? The struggle is real. I am coming to understand, that it comes from a deeper place, and my closet is a reflection of my internal thoughts. While I don’t have time to have an analysis done in the morning or the night before, this article has some basic guidelines that may help:
1) A work appropriate LBD – (little black dress) …..Hurley says it’s also the perfect piece for curvy girls looking for a more streamlined silhouette, especially through the midsection.
2) A well-tailored blazer. While we love a more oversize shape for off-duty looks, for the office, invest in a shape that has a more tailored waist and ends at the widest part of your hips, which looks more dressed up for the office.
3) A perfectly cut pencil skirt. For work, it’s totally worth it to invest in a basic go-to pencil skirt in a quality fabric. Hurley says the key is to look for crisp fabrics that aren’t as stretchy or form-fitting as the pencil skirts you might wear for a night out, and to pay particular attention to the length.
4) A patterned dress. “A patterned dress can be fun and young, and V-necks in particular are flattering,” Hurley says. “Then, make a solid-color blazer be the piece that will create the ‘V’ that will be flattering to curvy shapes.”
