OOTD: “A Walk On The Wild Side In Torrid’s ‘JET’ Collection”

July 27, 2011

Today I wore a t-shirt from the new JET (John Eshaya Tees) collection from Torrid. John Eshaya is a stylist to celebs such as Kim & Khloe Kardashian and Nicole Ritchie. He has designed a new line exclusively for Torrid plus-sizes. The shirt I’m wearing is called the “Neon Cheetah Box Top”. I must first say that I’m not usually a t-shirt kinda girl but this particular shirt has a feminine style to it. There is a peek-a-boo bow opening on the back and if you know me by now, I like to ad pizazz to my outfits. With that being said, I went for a red belt to add some extra flare to the shirt. I notice from reading mags and watching fashion shows that adding a color to an outfit that doesn’t necessarily match is the new thing. I originally was gonna use my turquoise belt but couldn’t find it this morning. The red wide belt is also from Torrid.

Now on to the jeggings. Can I just say that if I could wear jeggings everyday I would. In most of my posts I’m usually in dresses. Mainly because I never find jeans that fit me right. But I absolutely love leggings and jeggings. Although I have discovered with this pair and as with every other pair of jeggings that I own, you must always buy a size up from your normal size. It doesn’t seem to matter about the brand or designer either with upping your jegging sizing. This pair is called the “Sophia” jegging, also by Torrid. They have a little whiskering at the top thigh area and are really comfortable on. The stretch hits every curve to perfection. There’s no bunching in the waist or problems zipping these babies up. What I like best is that the ankle length goes perfect with either flats or pumps.
