    The first and most important rule for my ladies with more to love is " Always wear your size" some of us are in denial. Maybe you've put on a little weight. Or maybe you were always thick and lovely. Whatever the reason, don't be in denial. Always wear your size in whatever you wear. You will be more comfortable and more confident. TRUST ME! What's the point of rocking a cute outfit when you are too busy wondering if this and that is sticking out. When you wear clothes that are to big for you. It highlights all the areas you're trying to hide. And it makes you look sloppy. On the other hand when you wear your clothing way to big. It makes you look way bigger than what you are. WEAR YOUR SIZE!

  2. Step 2
    always try your jeans on before you leave the store

    Always try on your jeans.
    Try on your clothes period. I know you don't have the time. But when you've got more to love, you have to make the time. Just because it looks good on the mannequin, doesn't mean it will look good on you. Different brands run differently so you should try on the jeans to make sure they fit just right. This will save you a trip back to the store if it doesn't.

  3. Step 3

    Low rise can never be a good thing for the thick and lovely. If you have a bit of a gut. Low rise jeans will only make you look... well guttier! And God forbid you sit down. Then the crack is showing. That's a no-no!
    Instead opt for skinny jeans that sit just at the waist. This will also help tuck in a bit. If you have a flatter stomach than most thick and lovely women. You may be able to get away with a high waisted skinny jean.

  4. Step 4
    Wear a cute top with your jeans like this one from Torrid

    Wear a cute top!
    Balance Makes Perfect we don't need to wear our clothes skin tight to look sexy. Our skinny jeans are already snug. So balance that out with a looser shirt. This creates curves while hiding the bumps. Baby doll tops and extra long tees are perfect with skinny jeans.

  5. Step 5
    Rock some cute shoes

Tips & Warnings
  • skinny jeans are great because you can dress it up or down. You can wear a cute graphic tee and funky sneaks in the day time or dress it up with a pretty fancy top and some sexy pumps
  • If you lack in the back opt for jeans with embroidered pockets on the back instead of jeans without pockets at all
  • Dark wash jeans look great on the legs of a thick and lovely woman. Experiment with different washes. But don't be afraid to experiment with different colors
  • Look for jeans with less material for the warmer seasons
