I know, I know, it’s super cold these days – at least it wasn’t, when we took these pictures. :) And the jacket is kind of warm plus the overknee boots are a good choice to keep your legs warm when  you’re wearing a short jumpsuit. To be honest, I’m still no fan of shorts cause they always go up between my thighs and I have to keep pulling on them all the time, but they look so nice! Haha!

Unfortunately, none of the pieces seem to be available anymore (most of them are already old, though), so I searched for some alternatives and you can find them below.

[Produktplatzierung | Product Placement]

We seriously need to talk about how many pants I’ve been showing you throughout the last months. Isn’t it crazy how C&A managed to make me like jeans? So much I even ordered one by myself in their SALE section (this time, an actual skinny jeans) plus another one at → Violeta by Mango (cause it’s embellished with pearls and you know how much I love pearls!) and I can’t wait to try them on.

Today’s outfit is → recycling one of the jeans you already saw. This is not a post of our collab (→ that’s why there’s the label “product placement”) but almost the whole outfit is gifted. Everybody who attended the C&A Collection Preview event in October in Düsseldorf, got one of the #WearTheChange t-shirts (as far as I know, they’re not for sale, sorry!). They’re supposed to promote C&A’s sustainability engagement, especially cause they’re the biggest producer using organic cotton. I believe that this is pretty much a great thing to support by wearing this t-shirt and therefore being a part of the change. ;) But I’d also like to interpret this shirt my way and say that for me, “wearing the change” in terms of plus-size means to be a change by wearing whatever I like. Probably kind of a challenge for some: tucking your t-shirt in your jeans. ;) I dare you to change and try it! ;)

[Werbung | Advertisement – collaboration with C&A]

This fall, I’m starting a new collaboration with C&A – I can’t wait to show you the whole exciting project which was shot and filmed in Düsseldorf at the end of August. It’s super cool and I’m incredibly proud to be a part of it! I’ll tell you more about it all in an extra blog post as soon as I receive the pictures and videos! :)

I’ll also be showing you a few looks from their plus-size collection through fall and winter and I hope you’re going to love it as much as I do. These looks will definitely be a little bit more casual than usual, since fall and winter are very cozy and comfy and I’m pretty sure you’ll like to see some everyday options, right?

Today, I’m starting with a casual chic style with lots of blue. It’s kind of unusual to see me wearing regular jeans since I usually go for skinny jeans but I like the loose style in combination with the long cardigan and the tunic, which I tucked into the pants cause it would’ve been to much of that “layering style” and therefore not very flattering – even though many people will tell fat women that this is the best way to “conceal” your body, but truth is: you’ll look just way bigger than you are if you just layer loose and mostly oversized shapes! Your body will get lost and hidden and you’ll just look like a sack of clothes. So here’s my tip: there’s nothing wrong with showing your waistline and this is easy to do when wearing pants under a cardi – just tuck your shirt into the pants. I know many are scared to show their belly outline but there’s no need to hide it. It’s just a belly! :)

Yeah, I’m currently doing a few series, I guess. There’s not only one piece missing in my Marina Rinaldi x Stella Jean trilogy but I also still had this amazing crop top from H&M’s last designer collaboration in my closet waiting for spring – so here we are! :)

Even though we’ve been fighting a lot for plus size acceptance (in fashion), crop tops are still an issue. I totally understand if it’s simply not someone’s taste to show your tummy, but it’s also important to accept if someone wants to wear cropped clothes – and yes, this also includes fat women. Because there’s no such thing as “this is only reserved for skinny girls”. ;)

I liked many pieces of the collection with Kenzo but this print was my favorite, that’s why I bought two pieces with it – this crop top and, as you already know, → this dress. I’ll definitely be wearing the dress again this spring/summer because it’s so light and easy to wear, but this top is also super cool and will be a great addition to any other skirt or jeans. We already had a few warm days here but it’s currently super disgusting outside, rainy and cold, and I really hope that the sun comes back as soon as possible – I can’t take this bad weather anymore!
