Today was a great day! I was lucky enough to go to a private Ed Sheeran concert and to meet him as well! This is my second time meeting Ed, and he was just as sweet and down to earth as the last! I had to look cute while still remaining comfortable of course! I kept to it calm and clean with my outfit opting for all black and found these great sandals at Target! Target currently has 25% of sandals and wedges so be sure to check them out!

Not all “curvy” jeans are made the same! 

Finding jeans that fit every part of your body perfectly can be difficult, well make that impossible! This is heightened by 10,000% when you are plus size. This is due to the fashion industries idea that all plus size women have the same shape. Obviously this and many other assumptions about plus size women are FALSE! However, over the past couple of years I have found a couple of brands that never seem to never let me down in terms of finding jeans that are comfortable and stylish. These brands seem to have similar reviews from curvy women across the board. Basically these brands have perfected the art that can only be noted as creating “The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants.” Asos Curve, Forever 21 Plus, Old Navy and Torrid all have jeans that progress with the trends and fit a wide range of plus size women. 

OLD NAVY

I have been wearing Old Navy Jeans since high school. This is the only store that I can squeeze my way into “straight sizes” giving me more options. However, the online plus size brand is pretty marvelous itself. The prices aren’t too expensive and they seem to always have a sale or a coupon code online. My favorite fit are the Sweetheart Skinny and Sweetheart Straight legs, pictured above. These jeans tend to range from $20-$40. The jeans are a great quality for the price and typically last me upwards of a few years! They come in a wide range of colors that stay pretty much like new in terms of shape and fading. Old Navy is my go to for jeans. 

FOREVER 21 PLUS

I have just recently, in the past year, become a fan of Forever 21’s plus line. The price of their items are unbelievable. However, you get what you pay for. By this I mean the jeans, although comfortable, are unbelievable thin. As a plus size woman my thighs rub together, obviously. This means that Forever 21’s jeans without a doubt always succumb to the god forsaken inner thigh holes! With that said, I still surprisingly would suggest their jeans because if I can pay $10-$15 for a pair of jeans that will last me a year or so I will! 

ASOS CURVE

I LOVE ASOS CURVE! The quality of all of their products truly can’t be beat! However, this high quality does come with a bit of a higher price tag. In terms of Jeans this sight runs the gamut. There are so many different washes, fits, and styles. Basically any kind of jean your heart desires you can find on this site! Asos Curve is one of the only sites that I have been able to find that offers this wide variety in its plus size clothing!

Here are the links to all the jeans pictured above!

People are constantly worried about looking professional with natural hair. This is so problematic on so many levels. I just let the mane loose and go to my office.
