- Suits and jackets: Athletic cut styles with extended shoulders and narrow-angled body cuts are best for your frame. Look for larger lapels to give your larger chest proportion, and two side pleats in jackets look best. To hide a deep V-shaped torso, opt for a slightly longer jacket. Tailoring is key as loose fitting suits are not flattering. Play up the patterns with pinstripes, windowpane, and houdstooth. Basically, think big! Bigger lapels and larger collared dress shirts. Avoid double-breasted suits.
- Pants: bulk up! Think cargos, details, heavier denims. The idea is to create balance.

Perfect in Paisley
I immediately fell in love with this paisley blouse when I laid eyes on it. It styled so well with a swept back faux hawk braid for a dressy casual Father’s day dinner with the hubs, the bug, his dad and brother. I love the accents of gold that really gave a pop, and of course the shoes! These shoes are amazing and comfortable, and part of my Mother’s day present.
Happy Friday! Hope y’all have an amazing weekend. Just a reminder for you locals, I’m hosting a styling event TOMORROW NIGHT with John of Shop by John Michael Villa. Come hang out, shop, and get some summer styling ideas!
