Autumn With "Taking Shape"...

By Hollysbeautybox @hollysbeautybox
Autumn is finally here and I couldn't be happier. Being Scottish means I am pretty accustomed to rainy days but throughout Summer we had non stop rain here in Dumfries & Galloway. So to say I am relieved to see cold, crisp sunny days is an understatement. Autumn fashion is probably my favorite clothing to wear and to shop for but being plus size means it's not always easy to find what you're looking for which is why when Taking Shape kindly sent me this dipped hem top I was over the bleeding moon..
Autumn With
I was recently in Carlisle and saw they had a Taking Shape store (Woohoo!) so wandered in to speak to the lovely CR2 Kath, who was a delight and took the picture you see above. I must say her store was impeccably tidy and I was made to feel like I was a fashionista in the store with their trendy, organized, autumnal shop and staff.
What I love most about this top is that it's flattering without drowning your curves in material. Something a lot of fashion retailers do is try to hide our curves rather than compliment them and so we end up looking dowdy and drowned in fabric. This top is trendy with the "tucked into jeans" element at the front and wraps over slightly. The dip hem at the back skims over mt hips and hides the top part of my bum (the part I dislike most about myself!).
I teamed this with jeggings and ankle boots but no jacket because it's still at that awkward 'not hot enough but not cold enough' time of year.
How would you style this top from Taking Shape?
