Well, maybe this is a business look inspiration – maybe not, but it’s definitely something I’d like to wear in an office. Not in mine, though, because at home in front of my computer, I mostly wear my pajamas, haha! ;) That’s why I don’t post so many business looks… ;)

The whole outfit was actually planned in a completely different way – I was supposed to try on the blouse with some short dungarees and my leather jacket. But since the dungarees were sold out, I had another idea up my sleeve – pencil skirt and short blazer! And again – my glasses, because I figured you like them and I want to keep showing them from time to time. A perfect look for all business ladies. ;)

I must say that I’m so happy with each single piece of this look. The blazer was such a lucky buy (it originally costs around €1000 and I got it for €250!) and looks amazing with any more elegant outfit. The skirt is the only pencil skirt ever to work for me and my figure because it’s tight enough around the knees. And the blouse is great because the cut fits (this is a EU 46 and it’s not too loose around the bust but still goes over my hips without any problems, yay!) and it looks so cool – a great basic to own! And yes, the glasses – did I ever tell you their story? I saw a woman on the train wearing them and was completely enchanted until I finally had the guts to ask her where she got them (just a few minutes before she left), and she was so kind as to let me write down the model number. I then found the glasses in Brazil but they were completely overpriced. In the end, I got them online at some no-name glasses store (lucky me – they were no fake).

After my → first #plussizepower post with Jules, today I’ve got something very special for you with my dear friend → Claus. We’ve been wanting to shoot together since we first met → at the Plus Size Fashion Days last year. I’m so proud that he keeps saying that I inspired him to start his own blog, together with some of my fellow blogger girls who also were on the catwalk at the PSFD, and I’m even prouder to see how successful he already is – not only as a blogger but also as a male plus-size model, something we keep forgetting when talking about plus-size acceptance. It’s not only about women but also about men. Fat people struggle every day, no matter what gender. That’s why it is so important to also have male plus bloggers and models to represent “us” – and that’s why I’m so happy to do this outfit post together with Claus!

These were our looks at this year’s Plus Size Fashion Days for Happy Size. They had already chosen me to walk for them last year, and this year I was on the catwalk for them twice – once in this amazing street style look, and right afterwards just in black underwear for their “BodyLove” project with Silvana Denker. But I’ll tell you more about it all soon (only waiting for the video, which should go online these days, I think).

I’d like to tell you how amazing it is that Claus chose this outfit for me and how much I like it. He knows me pretty well and even though this cool style wouldn’t be something I’d pick myself, I felt great in this outfit – and still like myself. Maybe also because I added my own touch with the hat. ;) But all in all, this look is so good! And comfy. A feel-good look! The dress (size 44) – I love it! – and jacket (size 44) fit true to size, the clutch is super versatile (you can wear it as a cross body and also unfolded) and even the necklace (you know me, I don’t wear them usually) is a nice accessory which rounds up the whole look. The boots and the hat are my own and definitely two classics everybody should have because they go well with so many outfits! ;)

You can read everything about → Claus’ look on his blog – I’m sure it’s super inspirational for all male body types, a stylish and comfy everyday look which I really like! And don’t we just look great together? ;)
