How would you style this?

[roseflower]

I am far from being stylish. I am on the heavier side and often times feel like if I try to wear something other than jeans and a shirt I end up looking bigger or emphasizing my stomach. However I saw this skirt and I think it is absolutely adorable. Do you have any suggestions on how I could wear this without looking lumpy. I have looked at blogs where bigger girls look fantastic and sleek with how they dress themselves, I just don't know how to do it myself.
Any ideas you have I appreciate

mrspost08 has a similar skirt I think. I wanted it but my size was sold out.

i carry any extra weight in my middle, so i have a hard time with these styles because to me, they look best with a top tucked in and i don't think that's a flattering look for me.

also, while it's cute, that line is cut for juniors and might not flatter you the way you'd like.

I think there are some cute looks on pinterest that wouldn't emphasize your stomach. Something like this- where the skirt is riding a little higher and the tied shirt breaks up your waist line will help-


A jacket could also help-

Here is how I styled it. I've worn this outfit a couple times to different events lately.

I didn't even think of that, good point. When I saw it in the store it was in the women's section.

With a twinset. I love twinsets.

I don't even know what these are... Off to Google.

I don't have a picture, but I have a similar skirt and wear it with a thin sweater. I agree with PP I think skirts like this look great with shirts tucked-in, but that's horribly unflattering on me. I'm a plus sized apple shape - hard to flatter!)

I think my skirt looks best (on me) with a thinnish form-fitting sweater.

Yes, definitely avoiding the tucked in shirt. It would not look good on me at all.

I tried the tucked in look and OMG it was horrific!!!
