Fiercely Real Fashion

For all real women out there  - ya know  the ones who are curvy and got a booty - the latest runway fashions are attainable. Full-figured fashion can be fun, flirty, and fierce! Here are some tips on how to enhance your style to be fiercely real AND fiercely you.



- Want an instant touch of class? Lace will make you feel fabulous!  Adorn yourself with hints of the material in a cardigan or on a necklace.



- Details, details, details! Keep an eye out for fun fashion with little details. A fun flowy skirt with a light print is better than a form fitting pencil skirt.



- If you got it, flaunt it! Pinpoint what you love best on your body and enhance it. If you like your waistline, accentuate it with a belt.



- Out with the girdles, in with the shape-wear! Not only does shape-wear provide an instant sleek look, but they rid of unflattering panty and bra strap lines. Check out our article on the best bras for fiercely real fashionistas!



- Focus on the fit, not on size. You’re the only person who knows what size you’re wearing. It doesn’t matter if it’s a size 2 or 12, a good fit = a good look!!



Most of all, embrace your body and love your look. If you feel confident, it’s going to show and people will see how hot you truly are.

Now, I'm in my last thirties. One think I've learned about sizes and clothes is that regardless of what size is in on the tag we all have something we don't like about our bodies. So, please don't allow your plus size to deter you from wearing a pretty dress or a bold colors. Sexy mean different things to different people. If you got big legs, then wear a skirt or dress that has flare to it or an a-line. Wear the bold color where you want the attention drawn to like waist up. Just know what looks good on you and highlights your personality.

I'm a sexy full figured woman thats a size 12 and wouldn't change my curves for a thing! I'm constantly encouraging my friends and new people I meet to embrace who they are because it's what makes them distinct! There can only be one YOU! I've noticed that most successful people started out believing in themselves and other people gravitate to confidence because it makes whatever your selling convincing! So who are we to let other people define our beauty! Work with what you have ladies! :)

Choosing the kind of clothes that enhances and compliments your body is great advice! I love shopping. Finding clothing and accessories that flatter my curves is sometimes a challenge, but also a lot of fun.

I try to go with things that no one else wears at the time. Or just change of the fads. I love to be different. Can't walk around like everyone else in skinny jeans. I do love them, but I wear a little bit of everything.
