We here at Fresh Produce just love our Extra Fresh gals! Our plus size women know exactly what they want, and look fabulous in all our prints, colors, and styles. That’s why we created Extra Fresh sizes over 5 years ago. Extra Fresh are our regular wonderful Fresh Produce styles with just a smidgen more room, and all the fun, fresh feel that we are known for. You can buy it here, at Extra Fresh Produce clothing.

When it comes to our wonderful Extra Freshies, we know there are challenges when it comes to finding great fashion for all sizes. So we are here to help!

  • Elongate those fabulous legs with some vertical striping! We have a beautiful color palette perfect for summer with our Blue Waters Stripe Jersey Short in Orchid, Tahiti, White, and our pink Confetti.
  • Or if you’re looking to get very feminine this summer, try out a wonderful frilly skirt, to create a hourglass figure that compliments your top! Our Summer Swirls Jersey Double Flounce Skirt does a perfect job at adding fun frills, shape, and a simple playful flower print!
  • One of the most flattering shapes and silhouettes you can create is an elongated line with a wonderful pretty dress. Our Extra Fresh dresses are so versatile, they are beautiful enough to wear with a cardigan or shawl to dinner, or even use as a cover-up on those beautiful days near a pool or beach! Try our playful Island Hopper print on the Island Hopper V-Neck Beach Dress for a warm casual night out, or our classic screenprinted Short Sleeve Dress for a colorful cover-up. Or even vice versa!

Don’t forget your coral colored Bright Stripe Tote beach bag, for your towel and Popsicles!

Spring Showers Bring Fashion Flowers!

03.17.2008No Comments » in design, fashion | by: fpHoneyB

It may still be a little chilly outside, but if you’re like me, you love to hit your favorite stores the moment the new collections drop! This Spring 2008 season is no different here at Fresh Produce. I’ve taken a look around, and top designers are using refreshing trends to spike up their collections… and our wardrobes.

Flowers Start to Shower!

According to Style.com and Fashion Wire Daily, Spring 2008 is the season for floral adornment! Seems Ralph Lauren, Gucci, Carolina Herrera, Diane von Furstenberg, Dolce & Gabbana and even Missoni  are using hydrangeas, daisies, lilacs, and roses for their colorful pieces. Every style is represented from soft flowing watercolor petals to large brightly saturated blooms.

Here at Fresh Produce clothing, you know that we are always incorporating our favorite little inspirations of nature into our prints and clothing. We especially enjoyed placing all the lovely flowers of the season into our Spring 2008 collection.

South Seas Tunic (ALSBBTU) in Caterpillar   |  Island Hopper Sail Away Tunic (ALSCMIH) in Semi Sweet

S08 Spinning Blossoms

Spinning Blossoms Dress (ASDSHSB) in White (also available in Bloom)

Bright Bold Color

The same designers above, and adding Marchesa, Versace, have decided to spice things up by saturating classic pieces in bold spicy tones, neon yellows, pastel mints, and liquid but vibrant blues. Seems color is taking the spotlight on styles this Spring 2008, and if you know Fresh Produce, you know that we are no strangers to color either!

Maybe Marchesa’s ruffled masterpiecein dark vibrant red is a little too much head to toe (or maybe not for you!), but if you want to try out a fun trend pick up a small piece in the latest style. You can always pick up your classic favorite Logo Fem T in our lush and beautiful Calypso color. Or if you’r like a little frill, try the Baby Rib Island Top. Maybe yellow is more your bright of choice, then pick out a V-neck in Sunny! We have pastels, brights, and deep neutrals, all to fit your latest Spring fix.
