Plus Size Fashion: Beating the Mid-Winter Blahs

It's been cold, and now it's icy here in the Northeast, and I have a serious case of the mid-winter blahs. I'm tired of my wardrobe and I don't want to spend a lot on a quick refresher. And I'm not in the mood for another sweater.

So I dug into our inventory and decided to try a top that combines two fresh trends - plaid and purple.

From Missphit, it's a surprisingly flattering top with lots of pretty details, like a flat ruffle neckline and soft ribbon lacing at the neck and sides. The slightly fitted waist proved more figure-flattering than I expected! I checked in with my 16 year old niece, the Family Fashionista, and she gave her approval.

It's a three season top, not really for the dead of winter, so I paired it with an olive long-sleeve t-shirt and really love the results.

It was just the pick-me-up I needed! Spring seems far away right now, but a fresh new wardrobe piece can go a long way to brightening your attitude during the dark, cold days of January!
