Fashion Nugget of the Day: Belts?

I was MIA last week due to the flu, I even missed doing My Favorite Things on Monday because I was still trying to get caught up! Next week I will make the effort, I promise!

This is a Fashion Nugget from about a week and a half ago. Photos were banned last week when I was in my sickly state, lol. I have never been a belt person, and I am not sure why. But I have noticed so many plus size fashionistas rocking them, that I thought I'd give it a try. Here we go.....


Dress: Old Navy
Leggings and Belt: Mossimo
Sweater & Boots: Oldies but Goodies
Brass Locket: eBay

It was SO frickin' bright outside that day, so the lighting is a bit off. I bought this dress at Old Navy for $7.99 from their Misses size line. It ran so large that I had to go down to an XL. Old Navy really needs to get it together with their Misses sizing! I think they finally have the plus sizing down, but those items are only available online (boooo!)

Aside from the sizing, I do love me some Old Navy for a deal. This dress is supposed to be loosey goosey, but that didn't really do me any favors, so I picked up this belt at Target for $12 (half off clearance!) and paired it up. I think I am liking the belts these days!


Aron was my photographer, and decided to take a photo of his feet!

OK, back to work for me. Hope you are all having a fab day!

    Lovely belt, I've been searching for the right one but no luck on my end. I might just get it custom made.

    i have that same belt.. and it's one of my favorites. it can kind of go with everything.

    and i agree with old navy and their sizing.. sometimes i never know what to get, and if i order online, it's a complete gamble!

    glad you're feeling better :)

    I hope your feeling better! I love this outfit on you. I think belts are a wonderful thing, especially to help creating a shape to something lacking on. It just looks so flattering. Old Navy can tend to be really inconsistent, which is irritating, but they do have great sales! I think almost all of my jeans are from Old Navy.

    Hello Adrienne, both the dress and belt look fabulous on you. I have never been a belt person either, but now I can't seem to stop wearing them! You look gorgeous. xx veronika
