Test + Trails

Outfit Details: Asos Peplum Blouse on sale (here), Primark Polka Dot Slacks Similar(here), YSL Heels Similar (here), Zara Neckalce (Sold Out Online) but I like this (here)

I wore this Peplum Blouse from ASOS with these Polka Dot Primark Pants (for those of you in the UK, Primark is stepping there game up a little bit now aren't they?). As I have a pear shape, I shy away from slacks or pants that have pockets as they can make your hips appear bigger. However, I loved these Polka Dot Pants that I went against that rule and wore them with this top, something I would normally never do. In the end I think it turned out great. 

So Curvy Girl Dressing Tip #1. If you have large hips or a pear shape like myself try to stay away from slacks with pockets as they make your bottom half look bigger. If you are slim and want to try a piece of clothing that will make your bottom half appear fuller, pocket slacks are the perfect trick to give a sexy illusion. I hope your weekend was great. Although, I got some news that I was distraught over on Friday, I heard my future mother in law telling me that life goes on. Test + Trails come in all shapes and sizes!

For everyone in the States on the East Coast, I hope you've bought enough water and can goods in preparation for Hurricane Sandy. I called my family yesterday and thus far everyone is okay! God Bless!
