Trend Tuesday! Embellished Denim

2011-04-12T10:58:00.001-04:00

Last season it seemed as though embellished everything was the trend. This spring runways were filled embellished denim. Ralph Lauren and Blue Notch had a combination of sequins and shiny fabric added to denim for a dressier look. While other designers embellished their denim with studs.

Embellished denim is a hot spring and summer fashion trend that will carry over into the fall makeup fashion season. Roamans has so many different plus size styles, trends and fits to choose from.

Trend Tuesday! Spring Jackets

2011-04-05T10:00:00.001-04:00

Following winter's statement coats are a plethora of signature spring jackets. Some designers like Stella McCartney and Chanel showed the clever boyfriend tailoring or the classic bouclé jacket. While others like Burberry showed leather jackets or Phillip Lim who showed cape-like over shoulder jackets.

When it comes to outerwear this spring and summer you'll be seeing a bit of everything. As the sun begins to shine, the weather grows too warm for your winter coat, it's time to bring out your spring and summer essentials.

Denim Washes

2011-03-29T16:49:00.001-04:00

From denim-on-denim outfits to the ultimate jean jacket, the spring runways were awash with modern updates to the all-American classic. Denim was all over the runways this year from designers like Stella McCartney to D&G to Ralph Lauren.

Roamans has a fabulous plus size denim assortment to get your denim fix in! Light washes are great for a bohemian look and compliment almost every color. If you've got long legs and you choose a skinny cut, pair your jeans with some great flats. If you're on the shorter side, have no fear...platforms and heels work perfectly. Dark washes are slimming and can add an evening look to your outfit.

One of the easiest ways to wear denim is to wear 2 different colors like a chambray shirt and white denim which screams spring and looks so fresh. You can wear the same color denim on top and bottom just as long as the washes are different. For example, a light denim shirt with darker jeans or a darker jean jacket. You can also break up your denim pieces with accessories. Putting a tee and adding a belt to your outfit will help to avoid look like you're wearing the same color from head to toe. Roamans also has a plus size denim vest which is a fresh take on the denim jacket for spring. It can be worn with a tank, a tee or a long sleeve top.

Roamans has over 20 different denim washes all in plus size! Roamans has everything you need to put your plus size denim pieces together for a great runway denim inspired outfit. This is the denim year and you don't want to be left behind!
