I love blogger/brand collaborations and supporting them, especially when they are fabulous like this one. Penny Chic, whom I recently discovered, partnered with Wal-Mart to bring you fashion on a dime. What a more fabulous choice to recreate the Little Black Dress, a staple that should be in everyone's closet. At only $20 per dress, this is both chic and affordable. This is Penny Chic's whole mantra, stylish and affordable. I love it! She knows her stuff too, her videos on her under $10 finds are insane! (That's Penny below - how cute is she?!).
On with the challenge. I splurged and bought all 5. I wanted to see how wearable each one of these dresses were for plus sizes. I love the fact that Penny didn't forget about us. She totally offers these dresses up to a 4X. For me, the dress that I would definitely wear is "the curvy." It's flattering and the dress is long enough. Yall know I love a long (below the knee) hemline. "The Curvy" was the only one that provided that. These dresses are definitely for the girls that don't mind showing a little leg. My suggestion is that if you want a little more length go up a size.
Note: I bought all the dress in a 3X. "The Utility" fabric was a little different and I felt ran small. Size up on this one. For those wondering my height, I'm 5'9. All are fab, but my top two in design are the skater and the peplum. My one critique is that I wish they had been longer.
You can find the whole collection here. I'm not sure if it's available in store, I bought the whole thing online (Wal-Mart has 97 cent shipping). PS. Nobody better not make fun of my photoshopping! LOL! Which is your favorite? Find my bun here, my fishnets here. and fun and colorful skinny belts here.
LBD, works like a charm. You look great!

I really liked the curvy on you. All of them look great on you, though. =)
ReplyDeleteYes! Me too!
DeleteYou are so cute! I love all of them and actually just saw a lot of them online last night. I just bought some work pieces from the online site. I got three pieces for under $50. So happy! I really like the Skater on you. Fun and flirty.
ReplyDeleteI really dislike supporting Walmart.......................but I'm about to break my strike and go get these ahaha. My mom has been looking to step outside her box and wear some newer styled dresses I think these would be perfect for the both of us! She is shaped like you, i think she deserves to look goregous after losing some weight. The classic and utility are my favorites you make them all look good girl.
ReplyDeleteI DEF understand! LOL! I do think these are worth breaking your vow for, just this time. They are so cheap, yet adorable. Mom is gonna look hot in these!
DeleteI love the skater... but I love em all... You look fab lady..
ReplyDeleteAs always you nail it on the head with your choices. Being on the larger end of the plus range I too love a below the knee hemline. I think it is sexy, comfortable (so no one gets flashed), and stylish :-)! If I had to choose I would wear curvy dress everyday, but that would get boring after a while. Oh I see your photoshop girl! Nice...
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love u! Just placed my order
ReplyDeleteLove you too! :)
DeleteI am totally here for the Curvy, the Utility (love dresses with pockets) and the Classic!! Love all of the dresses on you! Do you find that you can move in them well? I pretty much mean, do they "shimmey" up when you walk. I have that issue a lot with dresses and skirts.
ReplyDeleteThe skater, the curvy, and the peplum hold place the best while walking.
DeleteI looked at this collection and all the dresses looked shorter than I would like as well.
ReplyDeleteHow do they compare in fit verses the Target Labworks collection?
I like the Labworks fit big to me, this fits a little small. The labworks is also much longer.
DeleteYou look so beautiful in every dress. Love the different pops of color you added with each belt. The peplum and the skater are my faves. There! I picked. haha
ReplyDeleteThank you for noticing :)
Deletebeautiful dresses but i really like my dresses to be a bit longer just like you! but great selection!

I like them all but like you I wish they were longer... when is a company gonna collaborate with you? your start should be shinning way brighter !
ReplyDeleteAhhh well thank you...and you never know what I have up my sleeve :))
DeleteI love the peplum ! I want it !
ReplyDeleteThank you for highlighting this line. I just purchased the utility and the skater. Never in a million years would I have chosen the skater, but you rocked it so I'm going to give it a whirl. Besides, for $20, if I don't like it I can donate it. Thanks for your good work!
ReplyDeleteYou've done it again Chasity!
ReplyDeleteYou look perfect in all of them dresses. I really should mention that I like more the Utility, Curvy and the Classic... The curvy is more practical as it helps to cover the arms for people who prefer that. All these dresses looks are simple and fabulous because u chose understated clean pieces of accesories. Love my dresses a bit longer too. You know what, the more I look at you - the more I relate: because you are structured exactly like me. So, watch out coz I'll be stalking this page to learn more from the best ("YOU") how to dress myself and be pretty. Stay blessed and continue to post many more outfits and beauty tips.

I love the skater...and curvy...we did you get your belts from....
ReplyDeleteFirst you look Fabulous and have inspired me to step outside the box and dress my beautiful curvy body. I ordered the Ultility dress last week, it arrived in the mail today and I slipped it on and loved it. The cut, the fabric, THE POCKETS! Cannot wait to add that pop of color w/ jewelry and the skinny belt; thanks for the tip in sizing up, I am bustier and going up 1 size helped.
ReplyDeleteMay you continue to have success in all that you do!
Thank you
i LOVE the curvy on you!!! HOT! the skater and peplum worked best for me - your notes on the dress were so spot on! i'm a shorty so i actually like the shorter hemline. it was fun trying them all - you inspired me to get them all and give them a whirl. i thought the classic was going to work the best on me but i was soooo surprised! :) thanks for your review!
ReplyDeleteThey all look amazing on you. My favorite is the skater. I may have to get them all myself. You can never have too many LBDs.
