Jade Perfection

As the weather cools down my lust for all those winter warmers rises! This year I wanted to add a little more of my favourite colour into my wardrobe and luckily City Chic have released some stunning pieces in Jade which is the perfect shade of dark green.

My winter styling varies, but I mainly go between comfy and cozy knits and jeans or flirty florals, tights and boots paired with lush winter coats. All four pieces in this post are available from right now at City Chic and are a must have for any winter outfit.

Delicate Petal Dress - $103.96

Blushing Belle Jacket in Jade - Sold Out 

Creating retro vibes with modern pieces - that pretty much sums my styling these days. From the moment I laid eyes on this stunning winter coat I knew I wanted to shoot it two ways. 1. Pair it with a stunning floral dress 2. Shoot it with some stunning strappy black lingerie.

Well, I can tick off one of these themes as it pairs perfectly with the Delicate Petal Dress in black floral. This stunning sheer long sleeve casual dress is both adorable and comfortable. Effortless to style and pairs with every colour you might wear this season.

 

The ruffle details, faux wrap bust and flirty skirt make this my new go to dress for all occasions. Size wise (as with every piece in this post) I'm wearing the 16 and I tend to always stick to a Small at City Chic so that I don't encounter any bust fitting issues. This piece can be buttoned up or worn open. I tend to do a half/half look so I can later scarves and show off my dress or top.

The coat is absolutely perfect in every way and just the style and colour I've been dreaming off. This is my second stunning winter piece from City Chic 2 years running and I'm loving the fit and flow of this coat. Plus if the faux fur is not to your liking it's easily detached.

Harley Button Detail Jean - $34.95

Scoop Me Up Jumper in Jade - $31.49

Now for something super comfy and much more weekend casual. You might have noticed in my last City Chic review I really fell in love with the leopard jumper and I've honestly been living in it ever since. After such success I knew I needed to add a few more knitwear pieces from CC into my weekly rotation.

Then I saw a stunning jade off the shoulder number, and I was sold! This roomy off the shoulder jumper is super fab. The slouch fit, curve sides and all those little fit details really make this an instant go to jumper for winter. It's chic and cute while still be super comfy and that's why I really need every winter. I'm wearing a small/16 in this style but I can easily go down again as it's an oversized piece.

 

You can also snap up the same style in a deep dark red shade which I hope to scoop up soon.

I've paired this over sized jumper with some amazing Harley jeans. After falling hard for the fit of my red plaid Harley's I've added and extra pair of this style to my jean collection. What I love most about these has to be the button details. A flash of bold silver, almost nautical in design making these jeans really cute and unique.

 

The fit on these is spot on for my shape and the stretch though limited I super comfy. I've paired these with a pair of platform heels but I also love wearing all Harley Jeans with thigh high boots. I find the plus size styles from Pleaser, Funtasma and other brands tend to slip down on my legs a little but wearing them over jeans sorts this out instantly!

Jump!

This week I've shot two of my favourite City Chic pieces, each with a different style, vibe and feel . After the success of a little velvet jumpsuit recently I wanted to try more and luckily for me City Chic have the curve friendly jumpsuit game covered.



Spotty Jumpsuit in black - $139.95

There is nothing more comfortable than a Jumpsuit created with a summer friendly, lightweight and airy fabric. The Spotty Jumpsuit form CC is my latest obsession. Featuring a wide leg, cross over bust, back tie and curve hugging tailoring this piece is pure magic.

 

 

 

 

This piece has been created with an Australian summer in mind as the fabric effortlessly falls off your hips and creates a bold wide leg. The mid section is lined and the fabric though light is not see through in any way. I'm wearing the size 16/Small and the fits perfect. Ample wiggle room and comfort for summer.

 





Now you might have noticed a bit of bra showing in these images and the truth is it's fully intentional. I'm sick of hiding my stunning bras from the world and having a super large cups size means I'm always wearing lots of fabric. So why not show it to the world?



Now I'm a sucker for a polka dot print and the large shape of these dots really makes the pattern pop! An effortlessly chic piece that can be dressed up or down no matter what the occasion. Pair it and a cardigan for day time or work wear, then heels and bold accessories for the evening. For this look I've opted for a bold purple Yemak (use the code Teer-yekmak-001 to get 40% off your orders!) and the solid colour really compliments the print.
  Styling wise the black and white print pairs perfectly with each and every cardigan or coat in my collection and I can't wait to create me looks with this piece.

 

Festival Floral Dress in rose - $50.00

Pink floral mini dress on my actual body? What's happening?

From the moment I stumbled upon this stunning little frock I was in love with the design and the print. Pink is not usually a colour that frequents my wardrobe but I really do love the more salmon or dusty shades of pink paired with my skin tone and red locks.

So I snapped up the Festival Floral dress in rose and fell madly in love. This piece makes you feel and look amazing with little to no effort. The soft ruffles, bust tie features and curvy hugging design make this so flattering on a plus size figure.



This piece is fully lined, has an invisible side zipper and a naturally crinkled fabric so you'll not have to worry about any ironing this cute little dress! Effortless once again!!!

I'm wearing this in the size 16/Small as well and I love the fit as it's relaxed, comfortable and will no be my new go to summer floral frock.



Styling wise I've added a few black pieces, inspired by the webstore images. A black harness from Hips and Curves as bold black pieces really pop when paired with this stunning rose print.
