It's cold - it's warm - it's in-between! Hmmnn...sometimes it's a reflection of the temperature on the outside and sometimes - the temperature on the 'inside!'
Applying the standard of the iconic Tim Gunn, can we find a go-to plus size woman's dress and "make it work?" Yes, Tim, we can! We're going to substitute a little gray dress (LGD) for a little black dress (LBD).
In Feng Shui, each color brings a different quality of energy. "Noble gray" is treated as a sophisticated, upscale Feng Shui color and is worth considering when building a little flexibility and transitional quality around a LGD. Three Ulla Popken plus size dresses that seem particularly 'noble' are:
- Matte Jersey Gathered Neck Dress, #21231
- Floral Embroidered Knit Dress, # 21224
- Color Block Knit Dress, #21225
Some guidelines that ease the transition between cool and warm temperatures:
- Knits that are lightweight but not clingy.
- Sleeves that fall in between the elbow and wrist - 3/4 is my favorite length
- Coloration that is neutral, deep, and easy to work with.
In the cooler months:
- Wear with opaque tights with (black, metallic or gray) flats or boots
- Layer with a mid-weight neutral or black cardigan
- Choose black, metallic or neutral accessories
In the warmer months:
- Wear with bare legs and ballet flats
- Layer with a light weight neutral or colorful cardigan
- Choose colorful jewelry and other accessories that coordinate with the cardigan
If you have any ideas to share that ease the transition into Spring, we'd love to hear them!
