If you’ve been following my journey for some time now then you’re well aware of my struggle with my curves. Yes, struggle.
It may seem as if I’m all about my curves now-well, because I am-but it hasn’t always been that way. It’s been a long journey of understanding that my body shape is different and finding pieces that compliment my shape. As well as learning that different doesn’t mean bad. Sure, try telling that to a teenage Latina *laughs*.
After 14 years of research I’ve found one type of skirt that looks great on those curves. Today, I’ll be sharing that perfect skirt and it’s under $15!
Style Tip: Opt for the black or red skirt for a great holiday look this season. Oh, and these shoes are on sale!
We all love clothes because of how they make us feel and that’s why finding the right pieces is so important. Personally, I’m very picky when it comes to certain patterns and details because I’m more of a “less is more” kind of gal. But there are some techniques that do add to the overall look-especially for those curves. Ruching is one of them. It’s a design technique that gathers the material in a pleated (or similar) format. So why is this great for curves?
Well, great thing that you asked! This skirt is great because of the very subtle ruching which draws the attention to the curves but also minimizes any unwanted rolls. And who doesn’t love that?! Another reason why I love this skirt is because it’s high waisted so it also compliments my curves because it starts at the smallest part; my waist. It’s all about playing up your favorite parts girl! Plus, there are plenty of pieces that have ruching so make sure you try on as many different dresses, tops & skirts to see what works best for you!
Let me know what some of your favorite pieces to wear are!
