What can elegant plus size women wear this summer, especially when some plus size women haven't gone swimsuit shopping in years. What looks appealing to you for a woman with my figure.

You don't need to be rich to own good material. Instead of looking up brands, look up materials such as "cashmere blend sweater" or "satin/silk fit and flare dress", you'll find these things online somewhere for cheaper. Nobody is above a bargain.

[@orla188]

that’s something i really need to learn. i’m 18 and just love having more clothes over good quality 😬

[@harrietemmaforte2034]

I perfectly agree but I must say one thing in favour of primark items: they may be cheap but they don’t always look cheap! I teach English in companies and sometimes I teach CEOs and business men and women and I had a class the other week and I was teaching them adjectives to describe things and we started talking about clothes. I was wearing a pair of gorgeous trousers from Zara that were originally part of a suit and a linen shirt I had bought in primark. When they described the shirt they said it looked like it was good quality and elegant. I was VERY happy lol but it just goes to show that the trick is being selective and pairing cheaper items with items that are actually good quality! :)

Everything influencers promote is for the mases. I always womdered why elegant&sophisticated ladies never wear what’s trending &always look flawless. It’s because they value authenticity, a clean, proper and fresh look above the trends. And so they make the difference. Very good tips! Plus: you are always very polite, I’ve never heard you insulting someone. You just give advice for women who WANT to elevate. If somebody dosen’t want it, it’s fine, not everyone enjoys the classics and elegance and it’s not an insult, it’s just a matter of preference. I don’t understand why people get so offended when you talk about average joe’s or being average cause it’s not an insult, it’s a fact: most poeple look/dress the same, that’s why you call it ‘average’. And you rarely see elegant/feminine women, that’s why you call them special. As simple as that. Hopefully one day we will surpass this era when everyone feels offended by everything.

[@dolcepescas6153]

[@sdavis5001]

There’s a difference between class, and trash, and not look older. I am not saying that all young girls dress looking like trash (you should know what I mean). Less is more. General rule!!

[@chesiresays]

Same it’s all about how the items fit and what they cover. Once I started wearing clothing that properly fit my waist, started wearing tops that showed off my collar bones without showing too much cleavage and started showing off my legs with bottoms that were only mid thigh short it all changed. I recommend looking into Korean/Japanese fashion, I usually go for the preppy school girl look which makes me look my age while still looking sophisticated. I mainly wear long sleeved tops that have a square neck, mock neck or boat neck and I pair them with a VERY SMALL dainty necklace. I’m always getting my clothing tailored which makes a HUGE difference, I only wear tops with a tight fit to accentuate my waist while my bottoms are usually loose. If you notice most “elegant” outfits that age you are very loose fitted specially when it comes to the top part of the body. Also when it comes to dresses or skirts they’re usually very long which also ages you a lot that’s why I go for mid thigh length.

[@lylah4944]

I ran into this problem as well. I recommend the modern preppy style with lots of colors and frill/flounce to still achieve a feminine look.

[@natashaivanchenko7017]

Cheap polyester is everywhere! I have the hardest time finding clothes not made in this material when trying to shop.

[@sweetyetunrefined9335]

I buy my clothes almost exclusively from ThredUp now because I can sort by fabric (and of course the prices). I get so tired finding a cute top, and then looking at the fabric content and being disappointed

[@JustBeingAwesome]

There are different levels of polyester (I make couture dresses). There is €1 polyester and there is €80 per meter polyester. The fact that there is polyester in there doesn't make it bad per say. Polyester dries fast, good quality poly doesn't wrinkle... so it's often part of a blend. So in short: not all polyester looks cheap or feels cheap. Japan has a lot of these "tech fabrics" that are 100% synthetic and still feel like a true delight to wear and look very luxurious. Ideally you always "feel" a fabric first. If you like fabrics start looking at the labels to understand the composition, this way you know what to choose online.

Living in Australia, I find the most breathable/cooling summer clothes are generally made of linen (a lifesaver; it's so hard to be sweaty in it thanks to its evaporative properties), a lighter colour (reflects the sunlight) and somehow drapey (as fitted clothes trap in heat more). Dresses/skirts are much more cooling than shorts/trousers as they allow air to circulate a lot more, and they're also amazing for a more elegant style. Ever since I transitioned to dressing with these guidelines, I've found the summer heat to be so much more bearable

He would tell me when I was having a good time with my bestie joking around that my behaviour was indelicate and not appealing. It sucked the life out of me. I see that this channel provides good tips and Anna really know her stuff as she looks elegant and timeless in every video I’ve seen, but remember ladies (and gents) that you all are good enough just as you are. You are good enough just the way you look talk or behave as long as you’re kind and respectful. Period. Wishing health and happiness to all💜🌻btw I’m thinking of getting a pair of dead fish flip flops from wish like my bestie has because I feel laughter and confidence is far more attractive to ANY living human being than the shallow superficial and insecure person I once became because I learned to see so many “mistakes” in other human beings and myself😟

I've rarely been inclined toward more revealing types of clothing. And when I decided years ago to revamp my whole wardrobe (I went from mostly jeans and T-shirts, to almost always skirts with the occasional palazzo pants in warmer months), I became more conscious of how clothing fits. Camisoles and thin tanks are great for layering under tops that reveal more cleavage than I'd like, and shapewear creates a smoother look under thinner fabrics. Having a more 'put-together' look just seems more challenging for many in summer, with casual fast fashion dominating the stores within many of our budgets. But it can be done, and it boosts my confidence when I can do it.

While I would never call the Birkenstock elegant, it's one of the few shoes that fit my super wide feet. So I always own a pair, though I chose more feminine styles. And I don't wear them when I need to look elegant. Not everyone needs to dress elegantly all the time. There's a place for Birkenstocks, for oversize t-shirts, for almost everything on Anna's list. The true elegant woman knows when it matters and the messages her clothing projects. She chooses what to wear based on the details of every occasion. If she's going on a hike, she might wear a t-shirt and jeans shorts. If her partner likes thong bikinis, she might wear one to please him.

[@lindak.6384]

I‘m so happy you called out the high-waisted bikini bottom with the draw-string, and your reaction to it. I couldn’t agree more! They look so incredibly tacky, I can’t stand them. To me, they always look like a desperate call for attention or validation from men. But us ladies don‘t need to show off our entire body. An average Joe might be attracted to such a woman (and maybe only for a night), but a quality man wants a woman’s body all to himself - and not put on a silver platter for everyone at the beach to look at.
