Fuse the Look: PLUS is the place to find the hottest trends on today’s celebs in YOUR size. Word on the street is Blake Lively is a cutie! Of course, we would pick her for this week’s Plus-size Fuse the Look. Going along with our new ‘Fall state of mind’ we found a picture of Blake’s amazing street style with black leggings, a jean jacket, statement bag, and a scarf. Here’s where you can get it, and how you put it together.

Leggings- They have so many to choose from at stores all throughout the malls, and Internet; but my favorites are Here and Here. Lane Bryant is one of the companies that make some really great, high quality, leggings for the big beautiful women among us.

Jean Jacket- Now-a-days people are pairing jean jackets with everything! Maxi dresses, khakis, leggings, the list goes on… I believe, that with the right color scheme, you can use a nice denim jacket with almost anything in your wardrobe. Take a look at these Denim beauties at Lane Bryant and Roaman\’s. Roaman’s has a nice military one available in green or black that I think would also turn some heads.

The Scarf- now, the scarf is key. This is how you pull the outfit and its colors together, so based on the colors that you have in the scarf, that would be the colors that you want to match your under colors to. Like Blake did above. she opted for a grey flowing Tank/T-shirt with a scarf that had blues and greys. Peruse the Internet shopping sites and find yourself a scarf that makes a statement. I, believe it or not, find a lot of my scarfs on Ebay.

The Bag- Blake has something a little different, but I really love this Tapestry Bag on Amazon.com. You would have to make sure, of course, that your bag matches what color family you are using. Just remember to think ‘outside the box’ but not so far outside that you enter another realm OK?
