Outfit of the Day: Casual Character
For a casual Sunday afternoon outing I decided to pair my Disney character sweatshirt with jeans and my timberland boots. I had a pair of these boots back in high school and unfortunately got rid of them. Just like with everything in fashion what was once old is new again so I decided to purchase a fresh pair to wear this winter. I have quite a few outfits in mind to pair these boots with so be prepared to see them a lot lol!
Sweatshirt: Forever 21 Disney Mickey & Co. Collection , Jeans: James Jeans cropped jeans, Boots: Timberland Women's 6" Premium Boots
I like to be dressed comfortably but not overdressed or dressed up (unless to occasion calls for it). Casual and cute is my staple. You will almost never catch me in sneakers and a t shirt, because that is just not how I feel comfortable. What are some of your favorite casual and weekend looks?

Jeans, Jeans, and More Jeans
If you are anything like me then you love jeans! If I could I would wear jeans everyday (unfortunately my job only allows them on Fridays and during the Summer)! I am constantly buying jeans and can never get enough of them! Since jeans are something that you can dress up or down and are so versatile, I decided that I would post about some of my favorite jeans and where I buy them. I tend to buy jeans that fit my body well no matter the price point. Of course I love a good sale, but when it comes to looking good I will not buy a pair of jeans just because they are cheap. If they are not flattering to my body type then that just means that I wasted my money anyway!
Different body types require different things when it comes to fit. For me, having hips, thighs and butt I have to look for jeans that address these different aspects and still allow me to be comfortable. I do like to show off my figure but I don't like to look or feel awkward and/or uncomfortable. I like to be stylish but when it comes to jeans I look for more classic styles and colors that will last me through multiple seasons and even years. I have made some trendy jean purchases and later ended up regretting them so now I stick to the basics. One exception is the recent trend in colored jeans which I love! I am also tall and have a slight phobia of my pants or jeans being too short so unless I am going for an ankle or cropped fit I tend to gravitate towards pants that come in longer inseams.
Here are some of my favorite jean designers and stores where I buy jeans.

Here are some of my favorite jean designers and stores where I buy jeans.
- James Jeans- I have recently purchased jeans from this company and I love the fit! They are on the pricier side but as I said earlier if I know that I am going to get my money's worth I do not mind spending . The fit is awesome (no gap in the waist or dropped crotch which is something I don't like) and the have styles with longer inseams which is perfect for us tall curvy girls.James Jeans can also be purchased at Nordstrom and Saks.
- Not Your Daughter's Jeans- When the coated denim trend started I searched high and low for a pair that where flattering for a plus size woman and did not look cheap and tacky. I found everything I was looking for and more in a pair by Not Your Daughter's Jeans! Not only was the fit flattering, but the quality in my opinion was impeccable. I would definetly purchase from this company/designer again. Not Your Daughter's Jeans can also be purchased at Dillards, Nordstrom, and Neiman Marcus.
- Torrid- I love torrids plus size skinny jean selection! First off they sell by inseam which is perfect for me because as I mentioned earlier I like for my jeans to be long! They also have variety of styles and sizes to suit the different needs of plus size body types.
- JC Penney (store brand and A.N.A.)- JC Penney has really been stepping their game up lately when it comes to the selection of plus size clothing. The jean department has been no exception. Not only are they offering many of the trendy jeans ie. colored skinny and patterned jeans in plus sizes but they also have many styles that will stand the test of time such as boot cut and straight leg jeans in classic and dark washes.
- Old Navy- Old Navy offers jeans in many different styles and colors to fit your price range, body type and style. Some of my favorite offerings from old navy are the rock star jeggings which are a thicker material and comprable to a regular pair of jeans and the dark wash boot cut jeans.The plus size offerings from old navy are exclusively sold online so it is good to know your measurements when ordering.
- Levi's- Levi's is the classic american jean company that is easy recognizable by the red or silver tab on the back pocket. The plus size options are comfortable, stylish, and really compliment the curvy woman's body.
- Eloquii- Offers a variety of jeans in different inseams,styles, sizes and colors. These jeans have a good fit and just enough stretch which makes them comfortable and easy to wear. Many of eloquii's jean styles come in classic and curvy options.
