Nordstrom Anniversary Sale for the Plus Size Fashion Forward
Edited by The Fashion Web
This weekend, over on my Facebook page, I posted the link for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I received a comment asking me if they carried “true plus” sizes. Naturally, my answer was YES!!! Over the time on my blog, I have featured some of my favorites Nordstom’s carries for the curvy fashionista and the Anniversary Sale is no exception.
To show you what I mean, rather than go on a tangent about how much I adore one of the few department stores who respectfully cater to the plus size woman, I have rounded up some of my favorite finds, as well as pieces to complete the look- You gotta Accessorize to Maximize!
Here are a few of my favorite picks:
- Halogen Sequin Tank
- Kenneth Cole Asymmetrical Jacket
- Cookie Johnson Denim
- Faux Fur Shearling
- Bernardo Leather Jacket
- Jag Jeans
And the shoes that are either wide width or extended sizes!
- Franco Sarto
- Michael by Michael Kors
- Calvin Klein
- Nine West
- Stuart Weitzman
- Vince Camuto
What do you think? While the extreme deals and savings only last for the last few days, the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale ends August 1st!

Jason Wu is into Leather Now
Edited by The Fashion Web
Jason Wu is a rising star among couture fashion designers and he now wants to expand his range to include a leather goods line, after launching an eyewear collection in March 2010. It sounds as if the American designer’s entrance into the fashion accessories universe is for the long haul. Wu told vogue.com, “My eyewear collection is only the beginning of my accessories range, stay tuned for later this year.”
Wu is busy researching the possibilities for his leather goods in Florence, Italy, home of some of the world’s top leather craftsmen.
Wu, who only presented his first collection in 2006, is already a top creator of celebrity fashion style, counting as fans January Jones, Amber Valetta, and First Lady of the US Michelle Obama, who chose one of Wu’s creations for an Inauguration Day ball in 2009.

PARTNER: Free People Makes a 1K Bag
Edited by The Fashion Web
I like Free People as much as the next girl. I consider it to be the more bohemian, festival-going, I’m-going-to-walk-barefoot-on-grass-sometime-today version of Anthropologie. That’s why I was slightly shocked to see that they sell a bag for $998! Granted, this leather mail bag is a cross-body messenger bag that’s cute but plain and definitely nothing to write home about. Plus, their other bags hover between $150 and $300, on average. What were they thinking?

SHOP: Chronicles of Never Black Parallax Leather Shorts, $329
Edited by Kirby Marzec
I haven’t seen too many pairs of leather shorts for men, but right when I give up hope Chronicles of Never blesses the fashion world with some of the coolest ones I’ve seen! Similar to boxing shorts, these leather shorts have a lace-up fly, raw edges and welt pockets in front. The shorts don’t come with the leggings (pictured above) but Oak’s awesome styling and layering is easily achieved with a simple pair of leggings! Go get ‘em boys!

SHOP Bess: Thigh Tights, $396
Edited by Kirby Marzec
My leather binge strikes again! Leather leggings are all the rage right now, and leave it up to the designers at Bess to make a pair worth every penny. Bess’ thigh tights are a cotton lycra pant with stretch lambskin leather, thigh high legs. The stretch stitching and seems at the knees make these leggings not only fashionable, but comfortable and resilient!
