We’re getting closer to the finish of my → #BeachBodyNotSorry series – I hope you’re not bored or getting annoyed because I still got at least one look left (and another swimsuit is still on its way!). But today it’s all about me playing geisha at the beach. :)

Unfortunately, my swimsuit is not available anymore, but I found a great alternative at ASOS from → Miraclesuit. Also, my “beach towel” is only a piece of fabric that I tied to a little skirt. The umbrella was a gift at an event by Kenzo, Givenchy and Fendi (and great on their rooftop terrace on a sunny afternoon) – since I was already adding kind of a Japanese touch to my swimsuit with my skirt, I just thought, “why not?” and brought the umbrella with me for my little transformation. ;) I tried to be as dignified and delicate as a real geisha (I really admire their beautiful art and dedication to it!) even though it looks a little clumsy, reminding myself that I’m plus-sized, haha! ;)

Anyways, I liked the idea of joining another movement of the curvy community called #dropthetowel (I won’t link the Instagram tag page as some guys didn’t really get the point…), and even though I already mentioned my little thigh problem in my last beach body post, here’s my thighs and butt in full bloom, just for you. No retouching, no removing of any flaws – just me. And you know what? I feel beautiful. Just like a geisha.

You may remember → Stylefully from one of my outfits → earlier this year. I’m teaming up with the plus-size online shop for a special look and giveaway again.
For my outfit, I decided to do something classy and very ladylike. This is one of my last summer looks (even though I’m happy to be able to be on vacation now and enjoy a little bit more of sunshine before coming back to fall in full bloom – or rather falling leaves), but of course also wearable in every season. Just add some tights and maybe a blazer and you’re good to go for any more formal occasion.

I really don’t want to fail to mention how perfect this dress is – it’s not only obviously beautiful with the gorgeous midnight blue color and the lovely lace. There’s also this great cut that hugs the curves perfectly. And let’s talk about how delicate those little cap sleeves look! Also, the wrap look at the bust creates a very nice cleavage, and to be honest: I love my butt in this dress! :)

So while I’m away, I’ve got something for you – you can enter the giveaway and win a voucher worth €200. All you have to do is:

• Like → Stylefully on Facebook (and feel free to like → my page too, it’s optional but you’ll make me very happy!)
• Leave a comment at → this Facebook post with the link to your favorite piece at Stylefully (hard to choose, I know!)

This giveaway is open for Germany and Austria, and open until September 30. The winner will be contacted via Facebook message (so please check your FB mailbox afterwards!) and announced in this blog post.
You’ll find all terms and conditions1 at the end of this blog post.

The winner is Anne Ruhtz – congratulations!

Jumpsuit: H&M+
Playsuit: Agent Provocateur “Warner”
Mules: Steffen Schraut
Hat: H&M Divided
Earrings: & Other Stories
Bracelets: Gilson Martins, Fendi
Alternatives: Daisy Street jumpsuit,
Vila jumpsuit, Ultimo harness,
ASOS harness, ASOS harness,
Bagatt mules, ASOS hat,
ASOS earrings

I really enjoy mixing different styles – especially when I can bring in some sexy lingerie like this playsuit from Agent Provocateur. Normally, that’s definitely a piece for the bedroom, but I think it’s way too cool to only be left at home, hidden in a pink box most of the time. So I thought about how to integrate it into an outfit without looking as naughty as AP’s actual plan. ;)

You already know how much I love a comfy jumpsuit – I bought this one from H&M+ a bit larger (2XL) for a very loose fit and it turned out perfectly for this little style mix. It’s been some time since I last wore a hat (and we are back…), so I had to take it out of my closet and put it right on my head. With some black and gold jewelry and mules, this was a great outfit for a relaxed summer afternoon – but still with this “sexy as hell” feeling thanks to the playsuit. ;)

Shirt: persona by Marina Rinaldi
Petticoat: COS
Belt: Zara
Pumps: LaStrada
Earrings: Swarovski
Bracelet: Hermès
Ring: YSL Arty Ring

Sometimes it has to be extra-girly – that’s just what I thought when persona by Marina Rinaldi surprised me with this shirt. I’ve been positing many rather unusual looks the last few weeks (and I love it!) and there’s been a lot of swimwear, so why not try something classy and elegant again? :) My petticoat skirt is one of my favorites in my closet, but unfortunately it never had a great cut because of the non-stretchy fabric at the waist. But somehow I always managed to wear it without any problems (like → here, → here and → here). ;)

So today’s look is a little more sophisticated and somehow ladylike, but still fun and girly thanks to the skirt and playful details like the belt and the pink lipstick. ;)
