Aussie Curves | Stripes...

This week's Aussie Curves challenge is stripes! Whoever said that larger women shouldn't wear stripes was totally wrong. Horizontal or vertical, wide stripes or thin...it's all good...you just need to pick a stripe that suits you and your body type.
I was really looking forward to this challenge! There are so many stripey options available for plus size woman at the moment. I spied this skirt at Autograph recently, and just knew I could make it work with my casual, layered style.
I've paired the black and grey thick striped skirt with a grey tiered tank top and short sleeved denim jacket.
I do love grey and black, but now that it's Spring, I need more colour. A bright orange and white scarf lifts my outfit...and adds to the striped theme.
The orange doesn't stop there...an oversized orange cocktail ring and coordinating earrings, continues the colour pop.
...as do a pair of orange wedge heels, and painted toe nails.
There we have it...stripes that work. In fact, I think the horizontal stripes in this outfit look slimming. You don't need to be frightened of stripes as a plus size woman at all!
