Among the best of these wild safari offerings are the leopard platform booties by Via Accenti which have a slightly pointed toe to elongate the leg, and a mini-platform to minimize the 2 inch heel. Also, Roamans catalog seems to be in hot pursuit of the market for plus size accessories. Their leopard print interchangeable cuff band watch is extremely attractive, versatile, and affordably priced at $29.99.
The worst of the animal print offerings in Roamans plus size fall fashion line includes the aforementioned leopard print cowboy hat, and also a horrific animal print business suit complete with blinding bright red trim. And if you have even one ounce of cellulite on your plus size thighs, avoid the animal print leggings like the plague.
Roamans plus size fall fashion line has few tailored items for the casual wardrobe. Sadly, they seem to be trending back towards frumpy and outdated styles that show an over reliance upon slinky knits and shapeless plus size loungewear. However, there is one real standout in the Roamans plus size fall fashion line that every woman should desire for her closet: the plush velvet blazer. Not only is this plus size jacket stunning in indigo, but it's available in boysenberry, chocolate and black. This is exactly the kind of item that can take a plus size woman from the mall to a cocktail party simply by changing from jeans to slacks and adding some accessories. Last winter, Lane Bryant offered an almost identical blazer for nearly $100, but Roamans is only asking $39.99. This plus size blazer is worth every penny.
Another stand-out in the Roamans plus size fashion line is the fabulous flutter collar dress which is styled to flatter the plus size figure. The empire waist draws attention to the narrowest part of the body while the a-line skirt floats away from the belly and hips. Moreover, the dress is machine washable and comes in a sexy shade of red that is certain to transform a plus size woman into a siren. Also, as always, tall boots will be in demand this autumn, and Roamans plus size fall fashion line features a number of wide calf boot options including the tall modern plus calf stretch boot by Via Accenti.
So what's the overall verdict? Roamans' plus size fall fashion line is mostly forgettable this year, but there are a few items that should not be missed!
