I am plus size, and I was wondering which stores had the best selection of cocktail-style dresses in plus sizes? Chain stores or department stores would be best.
I am also a plus size and have a terrible time finding clothing I like in stores. I have had great luck with catalogs. Try: Anthony Richards, Lane Bryant, J.C. Penny plus size catalogs. I have a closet full from catalogs. Their sizes are correct and the return policies are good if you don’t like it when you get it. The prices are very reasonable too. I think they all have web sites now too, but I like seeing them in the catalogs.
I will be a wedding guest soon and I have one satin cocktail dress of mocha color. Since the wedding is in November, cold… I would need some top, shawl, bolero… anything to cover my shoulders but stay elegant. It is very hard to fit anything with this color. Please, help.
I would go with either chocolate brown velvet bolero, or velvet black or another idea would be a gold shawl or bolero. Also a cream satin shawl or bolero. If you go with the gold, wear gold shoes or have satin shoes dyed to the color of the dress and wear a gold clutch bag. If you go with chocolate brown velvet bolero then go with a chocolate brown silk beaded evening bag and shoes dyed to match dress. Same with black velvet. Have shoes dyed to match dress. It will look lovely

Quick tips on making a cocktail dress look more chic and formal without going to the tailor?
Author: admin | Category: cocktail dressI have a spaghetti-strapped, empire cut, thigh length, green dress for my graduation ball. It’s a perfect cut for my body and color for my skin tone.
However, I find that for a for a formal occasion, it’s too plain. I dun wanna go to a tailor to get it altered and all. I just need quick and smart tips to make it look more formal and chic 
You could go with the green earrings and necklace………but if I were you…….if I really wanted to dress it up…….I would go with silver or gold accessories. Both Silver and Gold go with green and can bring it up to formal………Silver is more in style now than gold…..so I have some links for you to look at:
