Here are my top 5 summertime style essentials, featuring pieces from Ashley Stewart:

Essential #1: Tribal Print Swimsuit

OMG there are so many things to love about this mesh top tribal print swimsuit. The mesh top gives it a more sporty feel. It’s black, but with the pop of color and bold tribal print, you are still giving a little fierceness and fun. Let’s be honest – most of us feel a little insecure about our tummy area, and this swimsuit gives the illusion of a slimmer waist and creates curves with the shape of the print. I also love how the back shows some skin but stops just short of wear my fat rolls start. NOTE: This is an online exclusive!

Essential #2: Romper with Pockets

Rompers are a summer staple in my book, and this chambray romper is so adorable. It can be worn with flats or heels, and even though the material has a denim look, it is very cool and lightweight. And who doesn’t love pockets? I know I do!

Essential #3: Denim Jacket

Don’t think that just because the temps are high, you don’t need a good. This ripped boyfriend denim jacket is great to have on hand, especially when you have to go from the heat outside to inside where the air conditioning may be blasting it’s always a great idea to have a denim jacket on hand. Of course I had to pair it with my Being Glam Comes Naturally signature graphic tee that are for sale in the Glam Gear shop. What I love about this oversized jacket is that it can just be worn over the shoulders. I also used this as a cover up at the pool. The distressing is just enough ventilation for the warm weathers and is really on trend.

Essential #4: Off the Shoulder Anything

A huge trend that I personally love is anything off the shoulder. You already saw that adorable romper, and now this double ruffle one-shoulder dress is giving me so much life. This dress is super light-weight, and I love the movement in the ruffles when a cool breeze comes through. This dress comes in white, black, and a peachy color as well.

Essential #5: All White Statement Piece

Summer is the unofficially the all-white party season. I usually struggle to find an outfit that I feel confident in, because white is typically unforgiving. But when I tell you Ashley Stewart has you covered – there are so many all white options for plus sized women on this site. That one shoulder dress was just one of tons. Go look for yourself!
