Last year, I finally opted for my first cashmere sweater. It was in the SALE and I’ve never worn a cashmere piece before (except for a beanie that keeps my head warm on super cold days), so it was also very exciting for me to put it on. And I truly fell in love with that cozy and soft fabric. Funnily, only a few days after that, C&A gifted me with a pair of grey → cashmere pants and let me say it like that: I feel like a fluffy little bundle of warm joy in that combo – but it’s clearly not one to actually go out (especially cause the pants are about three numbers too big, haha – but they’re the perfect home wear for icy winter days!), so I paired my sweater with some casual jeans and my teddy coat. Aaaaand my new winter boots – another SALE find and the best one ever, since I’ve been living in these boots for a few weeks now, they’re comfy, they’ve got perfect soles for snow and ice and they’re still super special and fashionable (and my love for pearls goes crazy with them!).

So, what you can see here, is a typical casual look that I love to wear every day. :) As I told you already, the last months actually brought me back to enjoying casual outfits and easy styles since I didn’t have all my clothes for more than half a year – and you’ve also read my → “new year, new me” post that certainly applies to my fashion me, too. But don’t worry, I’m still the extravagant person you all love – and there are some very exciting looks coming! ;)

I’ve known the girls and boys from → Wundercurves for quite some time now, but we only managed to do a collab now. The wait was worth it, cause I got to choose this amazing outfit and show you a special look for winter! :) 

I really like the idea behind Wundercurves – you get to choose from almost all plus-size shops on one place. By today, they’ve already got one of the biggest global selections of plus-size fashion. Plus, you can get inspired by their very own magazine and they’ve got this super cool “Insta Shop” where you can find looks from other plus-size bloggers and directly shop them (or similar pieces). And if you want to be a part of it, just add #Wundercurves to your outfit posts on Instagram. ;)

They asked me to do a winter outfit and I decided to search for something that’s cozy but also has that special twist (you know me, I can’t do anything without adding something a little different!). Of course, it had to be a coat and since “teddy coats” are pretty trending right now, I went for this tri-colored version which is perfectly cozy and warm for those cold wintery days. First, I thought about adding a nice sweater plus jeans, but since I’ve been showing you loads of pants in the last months, I chose a comfy knit dress. It’s pretty tight, I know, and I wish I could’ve gone one size up but XXL was the biggest size available and I must say that this is definitely not a 2X, it’s very much smaller.

For my special twist, I added the red overknee boots I’ve already told you about. Of course, the actual look I had in mind with them, is still coming, don’t worry, but don’t they look amazing in this combo, too? I think they’re just that special extra the look needed to become one of those typical Lu styles. ;)

It’s getting cozy again! Today’s look is super comfy and perfect for those rainy and snowy days before Christmas! :) All you need is a leggings, a sparkling sweater (love the two-in-one look with that sheer part below!) and a warm coat. This one was a huge surprise cause it is the most amazing (short) coat I’ve ever owned and I’ve already been using it so often – it’s definitely my favorite piece of this year’s winter season. As usual, most of the pieces are already sold out online, but again, I want to let you know that checking the shop more often is totally worth it, especially on Sunday evening – seems like they update their stock around that time. ;)

Here we go – time for the first “real” outfit of the new year! I’ve saved this dress for a special post because it’s so amazing! When the Kenzo x H&M collection was launched, I was pretty sad that there were only the usual “small” sizes available – but there were a few oversized pieces which could definitely been bought and worn by plus-sized women. Like this dress! This is a EU size 40 and still huge enough for me to wear it like it’s supposed to be worn – oversized. It’s also my favorite print of the collection and I love the combination with black.

While I usually love wearing figure-hugging clothes or add a belt to make them look like it, this time, I felt like wearing a belt would ruin the whole look (even though it’s kind of cool too), so I went for the original style and yes, I love it. I feel like as a plus-sized woman people will keep saying that wearing something oversized isn’t flattering, while they’ll also scream when you can see my body (happens all the time…). So there’s no way to please everyone – and it shouldn’t be your primary mission when dressing. So here’s a resolution for the new year: if you like it – wear it. Nothing new on this blog, but I feel like I can’t say it often enough – and I want you all to promise me that you’ll stick to this resolution! Stop wearing stuff recommended by people who don’t even know you (uh, magazines – forget them!) just to please them. Stop wearing stuff that you think will make people stop thinking badly of you when you don’t even like the clothes. If you feel like wearing something that draws attention to you – wear it! If you feel like wearing something oversized that will make you look huge – wear it! If you feel like wearing something that will show every little chubby part of your body – wear it! It’s your choice – never forget this! ♥
