i don't know about you but spring is a
00:53
tease
00:53
spring is a teaser season to me it's
00:56
going to give you a 75 degree day
00:58
and then it's going to give you a 35
01:00
degree day right behind it if you live
01:02
across the midwest
01:03
and most of the country so i love spring
01:06
sweaters because
01:07
this is going to live in your closet for
01:09
the next 10 12 weeks be a great
01:12
go-to and it's just an easy way i think
01:14
to get a cozy layer on top
01:16
start to edge out of your jackets but
01:19
then
01:20
as the season gets a little warmer
01:22
getting back into your shorts
01:24
i want to talk to you about shorts today
01:26
specifically for the curvy girls out
01:27

01:28
i'm going to be honest shorts are not my
01:30
favorite but they are a necessity it's
01:32
going to get warm enough in the summer
01:33
season that you've got to have them
01:35
um and i've i'm hearing that when i step
01:37
into my confidence
01:39
and step out of my comfort or find
01:41
confidence out of my comfort zone
01:43
that it helps you as well and so i want
01:45
curvy gals to see the shorts that we

01:52
first
01:52
i'm going to show you all sweaters
01:55
exclusive to every
01:56
under 100 this one is the izzy pullover
01:59
it's 88 it is just a beautiful knit it
02:03
feels wonderful on
02:04
a little bit of a gather at the sleeve
02:06
you know how i love a deep v
02:08
i didn't do any i didn't do any jewelry
02:10
i really kind of like this open
02:12
um with the neon yellow and i would do
02:15
i would just do like a little front tuck
02:17
with this i would definitely kind of
02:19
pull up the sleeves a little bit
02:20
if the weather is on your side and then
02:24
you can kind of see in the back i'll
02:26
just leave it on top what i have on for
02:28
our short is the parker short so parker
02:31
short by a gold e if you haven't tried
02:33
this yet this is the long
02:35
so it's a little bit longer which for me
02:37
that's my go-to with shorts
02:39
panna cotta is the color i don't know
02:42
give it a google
02:43
maybe it means a shade of white and
02:44
italian not certain but when you go to
02:46
find this in store
02:48
or on web panna cotta is the color this
02:50
really fits true to size but i'll tell
02:52
you
02:52
um i'm in a 31 so that's up a size
02:55
larger than i would normally take
02:57
i just i like the room in my shorts i
02:59
like them to feel
03:00
a little bit more boyfriend style it's
03:02
my comfort level uh
03:04
just depends on you you do you i carry
03:06
my weight in my rear and in my thighs so
03:08
i like to size up in shorts
03:09
if that's not where you carry your
03:10
weight go true to size um i have this on
03:13
just paired back to a freedom moses i
03:15
talk to you about these sandals
03:16
i am in love fifty dollars this is a
03:18
really fun
03:19
cow print which i think is great off of
03:22
the neon
03:23
um all hundred percent sustainable
03:25
materials
03:26
faux over the top easy throw on flip
03:29
flop
03:30
for the summer season okay that was look
03:32
number one let me get on number two for
03:34
you
03:34
okay oh i wonder if you're having a day
03:37
like me so this is look number two but
03:39
it's really take
03:40
three on my phone because i'm shooting
03:42
in slo-mo and i don't know it until i go
03:44
to like watch it making sure everything
03:46
looks okay on wow
03:47
super super slow and i'm like oh why did
03:50
that take me two shots to realize it
03:52
okay
03:53
just sharing that story in case you're
03:54
having a day i hear you
03:56
uh let's go back to clothes and a whole
03:58
lot and brighten your day for you
04:00
okay so uh more sweaters right so
04:03
this is the renee stripe pullover
04:05
sweater the stripe kind of comes from
04:07
this eyelet pattern so this is
04:09
open little open weave here which i i
04:12
love
04:12
um white just a bright white headed into
04:15
spring
04:16
in a sweater and i also love this open
04:18
eye light eyelet because it just gives
04:20
you that transition into warmer weather
04:22
um definitely have to think about where
04:23
you're wearing underneath
04:25
so i just threw on michael starr's boat
04:27
neck it's a
04:29
it's a lot of coverage though so if
04:30
you've got something in your wardrobe
04:32
like a little spaghetti strap the
04:33
built-in little shelf bra something like
04:35
that would be
04:36
perfection and much more feminine than
04:38
this look but
04:39
making it work um also back to shorts so
04:42
kept on
04:43
um this is the parker a goldie just a
04:46
different color so this is swap meet
04:48
so if you're looking for that kind of
04:49
traditional just like lighter wash going
04:51
into the spring season this is perfect
04:54
again this length is the long so it gets
04:56
you a little bit more length on your
04:58
thigh
04:58
and then i i was kind of thinking when i
05:00
put on this outfit like out to brunch
05:02
maybe with your girlfriends with your
05:04
family
05:04
and so i put on a clog i also think if
05:08
you're
05:08
a curvy gal getting a little bit of heel
05:10
on with your shorts i think makes me
05:12
feel
05:12
a little bit longer a little leaner this
05:14
one unfortunately is online exclusive
05:17
um please go buy her because i would
05:19
love to have this in stores but this is
05:21
has been um nice job catherine i love
05:24
this
05:24
and i love the idea of a little clog
05:26
mule going into the spring season so
05:29
this would be my brunch look however i
05:32
think it would be really easy to leave
05:33
brunch and then go
05:34
head off and do your errands for the day
05:36
and just take this a little bit more
05:38
casual so what i would do
05:40
let me grab is i would pop on a little
05:43
bum bag if you have not picked one of
05:44
these up yet
05:46
once i picked it up i have not taken it
05:49
