BBA Spring- Into-Rain...

#BigBeautyApproved "Spring-Into-Rain" by Karen D. Harbin
Hey Beauties...
Today I was inspired to created a look called "Spring-Into-Rain."
In the midwest we have been experiencing several rainy days.
Of course being stylish is a must regardless of the season and/or weather.
I was intrigued by the oversized waterfall coat. Light-Weight coat. I love to pair yellow with red. I added a red plus size chiffon jersey tank top, with a plus blue denim skinny jeans.
I accerorized the look with a yellow suede pointed heel, a small tote bag and Marni necklace. A Kate Spate "New York Eyes" umbrella adds personality to the overall look!
