Plus North Premier Sponsor Post - Curvissa

My next Plus North Premier Sponsor post is for the lovely Curvissa.

This is what Curvissa have to say about themselves.

Plus size fashion shouldn’t be about compromise, it should be about choice. Curvissa.co.uk offers a selection of over 3,000 quality fashion items in sizes 14 - 32, giving you a comprehensive collection of plus size clothing that includes everything from trousers and tops, to jackets and jeans.

Great Values Across a Range of Sizes

We’re also firm believers that plus size clothing shouldn’t come with a premium price, which is why every item at Curvissa.co.uk is available in sizes 14 - 32, with a single competitive price across all size options. Search the site for specific items, or browse by category, size, occasion or trend for inspiration across the latest looks and styles.

Be Inspired

There’s more to Curvissa than just fabulous fashion at competitive prices too. Through our regularly updated Inspire section our experts bring you the latest looks and industry trends, as well as seasonal style tips and interactive tools to help you build your look from the ground up. Check out our Shape Calculator to start shaping your individual style.

The Curvissa Community

We also love sharing in a good discussion too. Curvissa is home to a great customer community which we welcome everyone to join in - find us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter to talk trends and plus size fashion with like-minded ladies and fellow customers, as well as the Curvissa team, or follow our blog for behind the scenes secrets, clothing chat and much more.

I really like the vast range of clothing that Curvissa offer, and own a few of their pieces myself.

Myself and the rest of the team were all sent the Pinafore Dress, which is a really sweet little dress, it is a quite thin material with no stretch so pay close attention to the size guide, I have found I need to order at least 1-2 sizes bigger than my usual dress size with curvissa.

In this I went for a 24 and should possibly have gone for the 26 (I am usually a 20-22) but the numbers on labels have never bothered me, I wear the size that looks best on me.

So how did it look

I decided to try it with my current favourite tartan blouse and I love it, I need full length leggings with it I think but need to buy a new pair.

I think I would normally wear it with a simple long sleve top, leggings and converse. it is currently a little tight over my bust, but I am wearing it with a slightly padded bra so a non padded may work better.

Head over and check out the other gorgeous girls in their outfits.

The skort that we were all sent was the Dogtooth Midi Skirt, it comes in three colours, Blue, Black and Whit and Coral. I received it in the Black and white and it is quite fabulous, I rarely wear skirts as I am more of a dress or jeans type of girl but this actually surprised me.

I feel really good in the skirt and think I could fairly easily dress it down, I really want to buy the blue colour too as I love it.

The second Premier sponsor for the event is Simply Be, now for my regular readers you know my love affair with Simply Be is pretty epic! so I will try not to gush too much.

Simply Be are one of my favourite plus size brands mainly because they off us plus size ladies such amazing fashionable options as well as the staples that we all use.

I know when I go onto the website that I will find something I love and so will my mum and my sister as well as everyone else I can think of.

This is what Simply be have on the About us page

Simply Be now have 7 Retail stores in the Midlands, I am still praying for a store further south in either Cambridge or London so I can visit them myself!

Myself and the rest of the fabulous Plus North Team have been sent a fabulous dress from simply be to style our way and I instantly loved it! 

We received the Western Chambray Shirt Dress and Belt

It is such a gorgeous style, I often avoid shirt dresses as I have huge boobs so buttons can be a nightmare, but this worked ok, I wore it with a vest under yesterday for comfort but I think it would be fine without.

I am wearing it with my moccasins that I won from Hanna, but I think it would be fab in the winter with tights and a pair of cute boots!

Head on over to the other ladies and check out how they have styled the fabulous little number!
