Plus Size Style - Everyday Bombshell

Today's outfit made me happy for two reasons.  First, I pulled this LucieLu dress out from under the best yesterday and was excited to wear it after a short hiatus.  I've owned the dress for a couple years and it got a little stale last summer.  So I stashed it under the bed...and when I pulled it on today, the dress felt like new.

Second, I really like the peplum trend that's cropping up everywhere.  It's really flattering on plus size figures because the peplum defines and enhances our natural curves.  I don't own anything with the peplum detail designed into it...so I decided to create the effect on my own.  Belting this cropped sweater did the trick.
