Looking effortless and fabulous actually takes work – especially for curvy girls like us. I know I have long struggled with these 5 “curvy girl fashion woes” below – check out my solutions on how to tackle them!
Woe # 1: Rising Dress Syndrome
Don’t you hate it when you’re feeling like a million bucks in that cute dress just to have it start sticking to you on a hot day and end up exposing your behind without you noticing? It’s never a fun thing to have a complete stranger walk up to you to gently let you know that your polka-dot panties are showing.
Solution: Wear small shorts, tights, and leggings under a dress. This will work to keep that dress down and the mystery alive! Bonus: tights will also help with chaffing and are great for body shaping.
These three give you the full range of protection against this woe all for under $35!

Woe # 2 – Bikini Shy
Some of us might be a little gun shy when it comes to showing some skin on the beach, but that’s ok! There’s no mandatory bikini requirement for the beach or pool.
Solution: Coverups…coverups…coverups! Whether it is a Kimono, Tunic, Knit Pants, or a Summer Dress – you can be creative with this one! Here are my top 3, all for under $60!

Woe # 3 – “I don’t like my arms”
I used to get self-conscious about wearing tops that showed off my arms, but have since grown to embrace them. While I always urge everyone to embrace every inch of themselves, I personally know that it doesn’t just happen over night and will take baby steps.
Solution: For those of us who wish to expose less arm but still look fashionable, my favorites are Maxi Tops, Off the Shoulder Tops, and Creative Blouses. I love these three tops for the job – all for under $30!

Woe # 4 – “Wrong” Attention
For those of us in the D or DD range, clothing your top without making them the focus of the show takes a little work.
Solution: Colors, prints, and creativity will make sure you get appreciated for your total package! These 3 dresses will ensure that you get the right attention you deserve.
