Plus Size Wraps, Kimonos and Jackets
I don’t know about you but a heavy, scratchy, buttoned up Mr Rogers style sweater is SO not my style. The sleeves stretch out, I never button it up and after a wash or two it looks terrible. It loses its shape, pills or fades. Ugly.
Also, I work in larger buildings and it can go from freezer to oven from one room to the next. No matter how hard they try a consistent temperature just doesn’t happen.
The secret to survival is layers.
Layers – Plus size that look artsy and fun and aren’t too bulky or hard to get on and off. So I went digging around the internet trying to find some things I like that will fit me and I thought I’d share some of my favorite with you.

What kinds of things do you like to wear when it’s cold out and you don’t know what temperature the building you visit will be? Are you a queen of layers or do you just wing it and hope for the best?
Great post! I love to layer in the winter because the school building I work in has the most inconsistent heating ever! Plus I have to go to the unheated basement where my kiln is located. Mod Cloth has some really fun clothing, but I’ve been hesitant to buy because I hate returning things that don’t fit. I’ve bought jewelry and accessories, but never clothing. Do you find their sizing to be pretty accurate?
