.Chubby Cartwheels review.


As a Plus Size legging lovin' lady, I find it nearly impossible to get cute COMFY leggings that don't break the bank. Torrid has limited selections, and the fit is usually too big, or too small. We all know that major retailers such as Target, Wal Mart, etc., don't carry leggings that fit anyone past a 16. One day while wasting time on Tumblr, I stumbled across Shawna, owner of Chubby Cartwheels. I instantly thought she was fierce, bold, & a total doll. Like myself, she doesn't let her larger frame hold her back from making daring fashion choices. I found it refreshing to see an independent designer making cute clothing/accessories for larger plus women (up to size 32) that are normally snubbed by even plus retailers. Instantly, I wanted to get my paws on a pair of her leggings or signature velvet skirts, and I finally did! 


They carry four different styles of leggings: Classic, Lace, Two Toned, & Velvet... The possibilities!
After staring at patterns/fabric for over an hour, I settled on the Classic Abstract Leopard Leggings. I sent her my measurements, & to my surprise they fit like a glove, and were out of this world comfortable. Not to mention, show stoppers!
.


I paired my outfit with the Silver Spike Ring, which is adjustable! Cute... & deadly!


Last, but not least...
I cannot say enough about Chubby Cartwheel's super lush velvet skirts! I chose 'Dark Teal', & when I slipped it on my body, I fell in love. Not only does it feel amazing, it fits great, and accentuates my hips! Normally, I wouldn't wear something so fitted around my tummy(personal preference), but no eff's were given with this bad boy! That's what Shawna at Chubby Cartwheels is all about, embracing your body
 and not hiding it... while lookin' damn good!

I've been considering ordering leggings from chubby cartwheels too. I love the color of the abstract leopard. I think I am going to go for the polka dot print.
