Accessories - 10% OFF WITH CODE: EASTER10

Accessorizing fuller figured fashion helps exude a sense of confidence and style while helping you flaunt the parts of your body you would like to show off and put less focus on parts you’d rather keep discreet. Choosing the right accessories can help to further complement your fashion style and dressing up doesn’t just comprise of choosing clothes but accessories as well.

When it comes to size, picking big accessories rather than smaller ones in order to look more proportional to your body size is usually a good call. As for colors, neutrals do wonders when used as accessories, but don’t think that black is the only neutral option. Explore accessories in other neutral shades like browns, blues and creams and you will be pleasantly surprised. Chesca Direct’s range of accessories specially made for fuller figured women come in neutral shades to perfectly complement practically any outfit.

Necklaces

Accessories can add a certain element of pizazz to an otherwise plain clothing choice. Because fuller figured fashion often makes use of a v-neckline, it can make your neck and chest area look a little bare. Luckily, you can quickly fix this up by accessorizing with the right necklace that would look well with your outfit.

The area left exposed by your neckline should be considered when choosing the right necklace, though the necklines of tops with a higher neckline can also be used as a basis. The ideal length of your necklace should always end above your bustline, but never exactly on your top’s neckline. For tops that give a larger part of your skin exposed, choose a necklace that will cover this area well. If you’re looking to emphasize your cleavage, choose a necklace that rests well on it to draw attention to it.

If you want to avoid drawing attention to your bust, don’t get a necklace that falls right on your bustline or one that is too long it either ends up getting hooked on your bust or with the end hanging off the end of your bustline. You can also choose chunkier necklaces to give the illusion of smaller breasts and to give more texture to your outfit.  

Earrings

As for earrings, fuller figured women have the advantage of being able to wear larger earrings like big hoops and not get their faces overwhelmed in the process. But if you’re not into hoops or larger earrings, a small stud will look just as well on your ears.

Scarves

Scarves are easy to incorporate into your outfit in a variety of ways. First, there’s the traditional way of using them on your neck, but even then, you can tie a scarf in so many ways both formal and casual. You can get a long scarf and put a belt over it to give your outfit vertical lines that will help you look slimmer and taller. You can also use scarves as belts, headbands, bracelets, or as a purse. Chesca Direct has a lot of scarves in varying lengths and styles for you to experiment accessorizing with.

Purses

Speaking of purses, accessorizing fuller figures with purses require that you choose one that’s proportional to your body. That means medium to large sized bags with longer straps that hang well on your body, just not too large that it becomes an inconvenience rather than an accessory. You can also choose from a variety of clutches and totes on the shop that would work well with your outfits for just about any special occasion.

Don’t be afraid to experiment with combinations, as accessorizing is like an art. If you end up with a look that’s slightly unconventional, it’s just another avenue for you to stand out in a good way. Even if your instinct is to stay hidden in the background because of your fuller figure, you can use fashion and accessorizing as a way for you to be noticed and appreciated.
