This summer's trends have revived some old favorite trends and have updated them to fit in this fashion conscious era. These trends are very adaptable into any wardrobe of the style conscious diva.

Fringe and Flow

This look is not for the shy woman, but for the confident woman that is sure of her. Fringes accentuate the curvy figure of a plus size woman. Choose quality pieces with quality fabric in order to showcase the style. Fringes looks good on skirts or on blouses or even on a dress if they are placed strategically to enhance the style, do not over do it. The flowing look is definitely in, light and airy and not constricting.

Encrusted Jewels

These jewels are on everything, shoes, bags, jeans, dresses and earrings. Designers have concluded that people still like the bling effect so, they have used encrusted crystals, glass and semi precious stones to achieve this medieval type look. This look is easy to carry off if kept at a minimum, wear one piece at a time. In this case less is more.

One shoulder is a favorite trend of mine and it is definitely back. Everywhere people are sporting the style from the runways, television to the magazines; the one shoulder is big for summer 2009 plus size trends. Showing off the shoulders and back is very sexy on a full figured woman. Enjoy this look on tops dresses and bathing suits.

Grecian Goddess or the Empire waist, this look is captivating in sheer. It's the look for the curvy diva; it's comfortable and brings elegance and style to the woman that's wearing it. Choose quality fabric that's not stiff but has a light flow. The Avenue carries a wide selection of empire waist dresses that fits in the summer trend; check out the Garden Party georgette dress which is a classic example of empire waist, it is floral and light weight, very fitting for a luncheon or early evening affair. This dress is very elegant. http://www.avenue.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Home?storeId=326&langId=-1
