PRINTED LEGGINGS ARE NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART
First off, I want to thank all of you who participated in my first Wednesday’s Wardrobe link-up. It was a complete success!!! My only goal was to have it actually work, the fact that several of you joined, is just icing on the cake. If you looked at the post yesterday, you still might want to check back periodically through the week. The link-up will be open till next Tuesday. So, more bloggers might still join in. I will send out a few invitations in the coming week, and hopefully we will have more participation next week.
I think I need to tweak the link-up, I want it to show “everyone” on my front page. I don’t want you having to click on the frog-icon to go to a link-up page. I have a week to figure out how to change that. If anyone knows the answer, please tell me. 
I am thrilled to see the sun and warmer weather has returned. This outfit was one that I wore last week on my trip to Tennessee. I will always pick something comfortable when I have a long drive in front of me. You can’t get much more comfortable than leggings.
My cute lace top is from Cato’s and it is at least a year or two old. I like the frilly features of the top, but the arm holes are way too big. Since I have on a cardigan, you can’t see that, plus I also have on a white camisole underneath.
White Top: Lace | Talbots (misses, petites, plus) | JC Penny
I told you these printed leggings were not for the faint of heart. I bought these in November at Cato’s. I have no idea why they were on the shelf in November, but I bought them because I knew I would eventually wear them. I have tried them on at least twice before, but they just never looked right. Did I just hear someone say they still don’t look right? Lol! These leggings are not my first crazy pair that I have worn, remember these?
Leggings: Reptile | Floral | Camo | Plus
The longer length cardigan is older as well, and it is by Old Navy. Come on gurls, everybody needs a navy cardigan or jacket. Navy is so versatile, it goes with anything and everything. You can see this one is long enough to cover the tush area. YOU’RE WELCOME! Lol!
Navy Cardigan: Long & Linen | Plus | Duster
I just had to show you an up-close picture of my hair. I tried to style it in the “beach wave” style. Some of you have asked about the products I use in my hair. I use Pureology Perfect 4 Platinum in a shampoo and conditioner, and I use Big Sexy hairspray. That is it, nothing else. For this look I used my straightener and twirled it round. I can do the one side much better than the other. Either way, it just takes practice.
Have you noticed the beautiful necklace I have on? It is so cute. On my way to Tennessee we stopped at a couple shops, I know shocking, and I had three different people walk up to me to compliment me on the necklace. It is by Plunder Designs. I called my BFF, Bertha, to see if she had her Plunder sales page up and going yet, but she said it would be tomorrow before it is ready. I’ll link to that tomorrow for you, if you don’t already know someone who sells Plunder.
Do you follow me on FaceBook? If not, you will want to do that today. Tomorrow I am starting a FaceBook only giveaway for a $30.00 gift certificate to Plunder Designs. The rules will be that you like my Facebook page, and share the giveaway post. Then you will need to leave a comment that the post was shared. Leave the comment on my FaceBook giveaway page so I know you shared the post. Sometimes the shared portion does not show everybody, and I would hate for you to miss out. The giveaway will stay open till next Tuesday. I will announce the winner on my Wednesday’s Wardrobe post.
And now that I know you can leave comments (that is the most I have EVER had) I will be expecting them from you daily. Hahaha?

As a plus size, I will only do leggings with a long top (think mini dress length). Worn that way I find I can get a slimmer silhouette. Often plus size gals wear everything overly big or the wrong cut for their curves. I find quality clothing helps to support, camouflage, and highlight all the right places.
I didn’t know Old Navy sold plus sizes until seeing your links. I’ve always been skeptical of the quality of their clothing holding up to washing. In all honesty, it’s been several years since I bought anything from them. What do you think? I read where many times you say you’ve had one of their items for a few years. Do you get multiple wears from these items? Do you like how they come out of the wash? I guess you must, because you keep them and wear them. ? After reading your blog I’m thinking of checking out Old Navy when I travel this weekend. (No store near me).
With Old Navy the quality varies. Some items are thick and great quality. Others are terribly thin. I like their pants better than their tops. I hope this helps.
I recently started following your blog. I look forward to seeing the ootd! Your blogs inspire me to add more color. You look great in the leggings. I do not feel comfortable in leggings with my pear shape. Any suggestions on how I could add them to my wardrobe?
Love love this outfit.
I love our look today .. casual but very cute . I don’t think I have the self confidence to try it.. Menopause has rocked my confidence ?. But you keep me looking at your wardrobe choices and it makes say .. Why not me ?Thanks for the inspiration !
I wanted to try the beach hair style for the summer. Now I know how. Thanks Tania 🙂
Love the beach waves- growing my hair out and by summer proper should be able to try this ‘doo! I love the leggins, super cute. I would love to have the self confidence to wear some, but my chunky thighs wish to remain incognito for a while longer! But I LOVE the look! 🙂
I love the whole outfit ! And congrats to your friend Bertha for additing her jewlery line to internet.
Your hair is absolutely ADORABLE!!!! Love the highlights anyway, but the beachy waves look great on you 🙂
And every time i look at printed leggings i break out into hives thinking about how i would look but on you they look great!!
Would love to see you sport some new purses. I am a purse person. Love your blog, I read it every day.
