According to Post-Gazette writer, LaMont Jones, the skinny pants which were so popular during the summer months, are now losing their appeal and are being taken over by the ever favorite wide-leg trousers.
T.J. Maxx Fashion spokewoman, Laura McDowell said of this type of trousers: "They are very, very fashionable and they are very figure-flattering and forgiving. They provide a very nice line in a pleasing silhouette for all figure types. Women are rejoicing!"
Some women might thing wide leg trousers might make them look bigger due to more fabric being there, which continues to add to the width. But this is a preconception which should be forgotten altogether as wide leg pants flatter any type of figure.
Here are some tips for plus size women to make sure they chose the right wide leg pants:
- If you have ample hips, make sure that the trousers do not start getting wide at the hips.
- If you are quite tall, go for a longer top that hangs to just below the buttocks when wearing wide leg trousers, as this helps balance proportions. Adding a belt to this look is another nice touch.
- If you are thick waisted, go for trousers with a drawstring waist to eliminate the extra girth added by a belt.
- Wide leg pants look best in high heels, so do not be afraid to wear them. However the trousers should never drag to the ground, and should have a narrower top to provide visual balance.
- Wear tops and blouses that fit close to the body, and if you prefer, tuck in the top.
So do not forget the wide leg pants this season. They are a hot items this fall and create a great modern look!

Couple Tony Piersanti and Jean Olson, who have been dating for a year, have last week opened up a brand new plus size nightclub in Reno. They opened up this club for people of every size to come along and have a good time.
Being quite a ‘different’ couple, Tony being much thinner than Jean, they both wanted to provide people of every shape and size with somewhere they can go to, relax, enjoy themselves and just be who they are.
I think this is a great iniative this great couple has taken, and it is great for everyone in the Reno area to have a new club to socialize it.
For further details on the club, opening hours and how to get there visit Tony and Jean at http://www.clubpluslife.com.

Halloween is a great time to shed some inhibitions! When choosing a costume for Halloween, do not be afraid to be adventurous.
Play out one of your secret fantasies on this mystical, magical night. Let yourself be daring and bold and sexy on this one night where good girls get to be bad. Sexy fishnets and heels add attitude to any Halloween costume. Be a “Little Slice of Heaven” in a beautiful long line bustier with a lacy petticoat and sparkly fairy wings.
If a petticoat is a little too daring, wear a corset and wings with you favorite jeans, pants or skirt – white frills for good fairies, black patent for bad fairies. Which one are you?
How about going to the Red Hot Saloon Girl look? Next time your Midnight Cowboy moseys into town, you’ll be ruffled and ready and all decked in red. This bawdy bar-girl costume, available from Hips and Curves, puts you in the ravishing role of sultry saloon server… and him in the mood for all sorts of things. (Is that a gun in his pocket or is he just glad to see you?)

You might recall that I had posted about a very interested and thought provoking movie way back in July and even January called Plus; a movie which focuses on the plus size modelling industry and the ‘padding’ of models issue.
Well it’s a pleasure for me to let you know Plus has recently won second prize in it’s category (ages 12 – 18) at the KIDS FIRST! Film Festival in Los Angeles. Alexandra DeBouver (who plays Victoria), Marlene Barrett (Assistant Director), and Keicia Derry (who plays Ms. Gamble) were present at the ceremony and accepted the award.
A big well done and congratulations to Chris Shirley (writer and director) and everyone in the cast and crew of Plus!
A trailer of the movie is available for viewing on the official website.
