We all want to look our best, whether we’re short and slim or tall and heavier. Here are a few tips I’ve collected for plus size women that will help us look our best.

Pants

Choose pants that are long enough for you. If your pants are too short, it visually cuts the length of your legs. The longer your legs look, the slimmer they’ll appear.

Also choose pants that fit you well, not too tight or clingy. Fabrics that are too thin tend to cling to your legs and reveal bumps we’d rather keep out of sight.

Choose pants that are either boot cut, wider legged or flared at the bottom. The boot cut is slimming, while the wider cuts also add a slimming effect by keeping a visual straight line from our hips to our ankles. The worst choice would be a tight, tapered pant leg bottom as this enhances the width of your hips and thighs.

Capri pants are very slimming as well if they’re the right length. Choose a style where the bottom of the pant ends a few inches above your ankles but below the widest part of your calves.

Skirts

Choose skirts that rest just above your knees. A mid-calf skirt cuts the length of your legs and draws eyes to the thickest part of your lower legs. Read the rest of this entry »

Business owners and managers sometimes miss golden opportunities to reinforce their brand and the image of professionalism for employees in the public eye. One such opportunity is the use of workplace clothing and custom corporate apparel, such as Port Authority shirts. Here are answers to five common questions about Port Authority shirts and custom corporate apparel.

1. When I think of workplace uniforms, I think of heavy-duty fabrics. How is corporate apparel different?

While rugged fabrications are appropriate for workers in certain types of jobs, corporate apparel is designed with fashion and comfort in mind. For example, there are a variety of Port Authority shirts, some of which are appropriate for casual office wear and others that offer a more professional look. Men’s Silk Touch Sports Shirts, for example, are short-sleeved and made from a lightweight poly/cotton pique, whereas Easy Care Shirts are long-sleeved and feature box back pleats, button-down collars, adjustable cuffs, and a single patch pocket. For women, Ladies Open Neck Blouses have a collar, front and back darts, and long sleeves. They are also available with three-quarter sleeves with fashion cuffs. The poly/cotton fabrication of these shirts makes them wrinkle- and shrink-resistant, while providing a look that’s always fresh.

Just ten years ago plus size women were limited to clothes shopping in the two back corner racks of the local department store. We didn’t have a lot of selection in style and fit and really–we didn’t enjoy shopping for ourselves all that much. It’s hard feeling good about a wardrobe full of cartoon character t-shirts and too short stretchy pants, and it was disappointing to shop for more of the same.

Our choices in fashion were basic polyester stretch pants (remember those thick elastic waistbands ladies?), plain oversize t-shirts, and flowing, flowery polyester house dresses. Anything that was somewhat nice was stocked in limited quantities and at an exorbitant price.

Ladies we felt & looked frumpy and dowdy because that’s all we had to wear!
