Jjill clothes clothes are generously sized so they carry XL  in stores which is a size 18+ so be sure to head in to their stores and try some items on. On line they carry 1x-3x.    I pared the the dress with black leggings and flats. I used a Belt to help me define my waist,  which gives me curves.   The necklace is JJill Uncomplicated necklace,  This dress has pockets and  great details like the sleeves that can roll up to 3/4 then snap back with a strap to keep them in place.

A Great Dress for a Plus Size Girl! Land End Review

Lands’ End Plus Size collection is a great. I was asked to review a piece as  part of Lands End  Show Us Your Style.   As a tall plus size women I often have a hard time finding clothes that fit me and look nice with out being a tent dress. My fit problem is that I have a small chest, larger hips, and I am tall.  My style is wearing dresses,  for the past few years I have been wearing them and they make me feel girly.   I love this Lands End Plus Size  shirt dress.  It make me look fantastic, others thought so too.  The shirtdress is so tailored wonderful, it flattered my body in all the right places. The chest was perfect enough room, and it did not pull in the front. The shirtdress is so well made with an attention to detail both inside and out,  of course I always expect the best quality from Land End.

I love the medweight fabric it is  eyelet cotton fabric.  I took my measurements and bought true to them. This dress is a Size 22.  I am 5’10” and the dress hit right to my knee so it was a great length.

The Women’s Plus Size Sleeveless Eyelet Shirtdress  is full lined and is great 2 seasons dress wonderful for spring and summer.  I wore this dress to a Moroccan restaurant this past weekend I wore it with a scarf around  my shoulder, just in case it got chilly.

  • My jewelry: a gold ring necklace, simple gold hoop earrings, and  2 gold  bracelets.
  • My Shoes: a nude wedge or great sandals would look fabulous.
  • My nails were a great bright coral color.  I love a bright color on your toes when you wear peep toe shoes
  • My Options for the future is to also get a great belt, and wear with my large sun hat.

This Lands End shirt dress is so great for travel and is a classic look that I am looking forward to wearing for seasons to come. This dress retails for $135, so an investment staple and quality for your wardrobe.  It is offered in 2 colors washed red and navy.   I can wait to try more plus dresses from the collection.  Lands End makes plus girls look great!  

My pictures were taken by my 11 year old son I want to thank him for putting up with his mom

Disclosure: I did receive this dress from Lands End as part of this promotion.  The opinions in this post of are  mine and my honest opinion of the product.
