    I am SO tired of hearing people tell apple bodies we shouldn’t wear leggings because it makes our top portion look bigger. I’m so glad you added the tunic or oversized shirt with leggings! That’s one of my favorite things to wear. I don’t know why people say we can’t wear skinny jeans or leggings with tunics because I think it looks super cute. Plus my legs are one of my best assets!

    Thank you Oralia! I think you are right-so much of dressing for plus size women is about confidence. Before I was plus size I never gave a thought to following other peoples rules and its taken me a long while to dress to suit my new body as I always feel judged-I'm a big fan of the third piece as I'm now tucking in and wearing belts again but I'm still not ready to show my side view without!!

    I’m not plus-sized, but I have friends that are plus-sized that want me to help them with their style. I love videos like yours so I can give good advice for their body shape. A number of “stylists” either recommend baggy, frumpy, shapeless items or clothing that is 3-4 sizes too small for plus-sized women. Your recommendations are very stylish and flattering.

    Hello Oralia, I just started watching your videos and am loving your tips! I am about 5”7” and have always been a size 10 or medium. But in my sixties I find I my shoulders are the same but my bust and belly require a size 12 or large now. So finding the right fit as become a challenge. I found you looking for belt tips and see you’ve many tips o help me. I would like to buy one belt to start and thought the obi was a bit pricey for me right now. But I will consider it based on your recommendation of which belt style to start with, have you a suggestion? Stephanie
