The whole package!

This one goes out to all my voluptuous ladies out there! I know the struggles that many of you face because they are similar to all women's if it just finding and dressing your body correctly and finding the best stores for you. First, let me refer all readers back to the basic body types. All body types hold true regardless of size so it is important to remember that because you need to first address your problem areas so make sure you know your body type.
For a body type analysis please refer to my website http://www.perfectpintuck.com/ and contact me. I am Sarah Hosman, personal shopper and stylist in the Phoenix area.
Back to the topic at hand. I am not going to classify anyone as a "plus size" but rather simply give you some suggestions and tips on great stores that I have found for a full figured woman.

Rule #1: Keep proportion in mind make sure you are keeping your accessories and prints in proportion with your height and size. Petite women should avoid a large hand back as it will dwarf them in size and make them appear larger. Those with greater stature and presence should avoid small dainty brackets and belts as they will look proportionally smaller.

Rule #2: Buy cloths that have shape to them and accentuate your positive attributes. No Moomoo's or shapeless tees!

Rule #3: Don't close out any clothing type even if it is difficult. Don't count out pants, skirts or dresses just because they are difficult to fit. Look for pants, skirts and dresses that are figure flattering and don't cover your whole body to make you look like a big pillar with no curves.

Rule #4: Don't forget you are a sexy amazing woman so look for lingerie that makes you feel that way. Also look for underpinnings that will "lock and load" everything.

These are my 4 key rules for plus sizes to follow. I certainly understand that plus sizes have a difficult time finding great looks but everyone of every size deserves to look and feel amazing. Please contact me if you need personalized service. perfectpintuck@gmail.com
