Wear Red and Animal Print

When animal is the star of the show, choose red accents as supporting actors! A perfect example is our complete Animal with Red Accents look below. Roaman’s Animal Print Fringe Hem Cape is this season’s must have cape that makes any outfit with its contrast fringe detail at the bottom and open front shawl collar! For the complete look pair it with our Uneven Stud Trim Tunic by Denim 24/7, Essential Stretch Knit Leggings, and Jackie Wide Calf High Heel Boot by Confortview. Don’t forget to add the red accents with Roaman’s Ruby Arm Warmer Gloves!

We paired this classic suit with our Faux Fur Scarf, Faux Fur Handbag, and Carli Oxfords by Comfortview. Just a hint of faux fur gives any look some textural interest!

Trend Tuesday: We Are Cardigan Crazy! Melissa McCarthy Proves a Cardigan’s Mix-and-Match Magic

Congratulations to Melissa McCarthy—not only for her recent gig as the Primetime Emmy Nominations announcer, but for an Emmy nod of her very own!  Melissa’s weekly portrayal of fourth-grade school teacher Molly Flynn in CBS’s new Monday night sit-com “Mike and Molly” radiates confidence, and is performed with a certain comedic energy we cannot help but love.  

Throughout her career as an actress on television shows such as “Gilmore Girls” and movies such as the recent blockbuster hit “Bridesmaids,” Melissa’s style reflects how confident she is with embracing her curves and her knack for finding fun and feminine full-figured trends that work perfectly with her figure.  For example, her character Molly’s versatile use of layering the simple colorful cardigan with vibrant tops and sundresses proves that women from petite and pear-shaped to tall and full-bust figured can most certainly have fun with her fashion within everyday life.

Want to enhance your everyday style the same way Melissa does on “Mike and Molly?” Roaman’s provides all the plus-size apparel options you need to mix-and-match cute cardigans with your favorite knit tops and dresses!  (*Also, as a bonus to your cardigan-craziness, we can prove how you can wear them from the summertime straight into autumn!)

 

Cardigans and Sundresses in the Summertime:

As a transitional piece, you can use your cardigan as a stylish cover-up to match your favorite sundress!  In cold office environments during those hot summer months, as well as during summertime celebrations, have fun with your special occasion outfit by mixing a bright-colored cardigan with a patterned dress. 

To get the look try  layering our Cropped Sweater by La Redoute in Passion Pink or our Cropped Cardigan in Pale Lilac or Pale Blush over any of our casual dresses!

Cardigans with Tops and Jeans in the Fall:

As hot August temperatures dwindle into crisp gusts of wind during autumn months, make sure your cardigan doesn’t go into that box in the back of your closet labeled “Summer Clothes.”  Melissa McCarthy shows us how a colorful cardigan can re-invent any floral-themed spring or summer outfit with layering! 

All of our sweaters such as the Pointed Tip Cardigan and Sequined Boyfriend Cardigan are perfect to wear with your favorite plus-size knit tops and your comfiest jeans.

Roaman's Rocks Fashion Week

It’s Fashion Week! And Roaman’s attends the Fabulous Red Dress Collection 2009

On Friday, February 13th, The Heart Truth Fashion Show sponsored by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute that took place at Bryant Park in NYC, proved to be one of the best yet! And though the air outside was chilly, the mood inside was RED hot!!

The energy & excitement that was bubbling could be felt throughout the entire room as women lavishly sparkled in their RED inspired outfits. Their fashion picks ranged from modestly large hats, to high-heeled boots and chic red dresses to sharp accessories. But none stunned more than the gorgeous and talented ladies that walked the RED runway!

Crowd Shot

Us on the Fab runway!

These amazing and talented women represented a powerful message of diversity in every sense of the word. And the message was loud and clear, it doesn’t matter how old or young, celebrity or average-joe, beautiful or rich…heart disease affects anyone at anytime. The earlier you take care of your heart by being healthy and active, the longer, happier life you’ll lead! The Red Dress Collection is based on the Red Dress icon that is the centerpiece of The Heart Truth. It is a simple, beautiful symbol that sends the message that “Heart Disease Doesn’t Care What You Wear- It’s the #1 Killer of Women”

So the best thing for women to strive toward is to take care of their heart and be
Heart HAPPY!
