Welcome to another edition of Style & Scopes, your monthly plus size style horoscope!
What does a functional wardrobe look like for you? Brass Clothing Is Here to Help!
Disclosure: This is a sponsored giveaway with Brass Clothing. How we rocked the pieces and our opinions are our own.
Are you always looking for something to wear? Never finding the perfect pieces to complete your look? Keep reading to learn why!
Over the years, we have talked about the importance of having the perfect plus size wardrobe essentials. You know, the timeless basics that help you create a functioning wardrobe/closet that works for you. Well, Boston based brand, Brass Clothing is here to help in more ways than one!
I have found that over the years, when you invest in your day to day classics, essentials, or wardrobe building blocks, this helps you streamline your style, find your looks, and even shop with a bit more confidence. Not to mention, help you with your budget!
So, when I heard about Brass Clothing bringing their Foundations to the plus size market, up through a size 26, I had to learn more and test it out. Not only give them a test drive, but to also hook One lucky reader up with her own “Foundations!”
Having Fun in These Brass Clothing Foundations
Look One- The Black Ponte Pant
Every girl needs a fly pair of black pants that can take her from the office to date night. For me? I paired my Ponte pants with a leopard button up and my Faux Fur!
I wanted to have a little fun with this look to show how an essential can have many looks!
Look Two- The All-Day Tank and All-Day Pant
Because sometimes, this Boss Lady wants to step it up a little bit. I love a great monochromatic look and this navy head to toe look, paired back to this navy blue Faux Fur that has been sitting in my closet?!
Winning!
Look Three- The Non-Stop Top
I rocked out with this off-white blouse with my new favorite jeans and playful pumps! What I dig about the silhouette of this top, is that it can easily go from a suit or work bottoms to jeans, without missing a beat.
Your shoes? It does not matter!
See, Brass Clothing is focused on “making women’s lives easier by transforming their wardrobes.” They believe that a “streamlined, functional wardrobe has the ability to create space for women to make bigger changes in their lives and the lives of others.”
We could not agree more! While we have often spoken of the 7-10 wardrobe essentials, Brass clothing has found a way to tailor this down to 5 essential pieces that you need in your life. If minimalism, clean lines, great construction, and a great foundation is your style, then you need to give Brass Clothing a look!
Which leads me to…

I am the Editor in Chic of The Curvy Fashionista. Often goofy. Forever emo. Always a Virgo. You can find me somewhere grooving to 90s R&B.
I would be so happy if The Curvy Fashionista could list sizes with their articles about clothing and giveaways. It’s pretty disappointing to constantly having to go to a brand’s website to check their size range, only to find that it stops before my size (30/32). Once I discover a brand doesn’t carry my size, I stop caring about them. I’m starting to get too frustrated to follow TCF.
Thanks for considering and hopefully for making changes for your bigger readers. <3
Hello Kelly, in the post I mentioned that the collection goes up through a size 26.
In our roundups, we have also started including the size ranges that the brand carries, to prevent frustrations… Which has also only motivated us to find more brands who carry beyond a size 3X. We actually also have contributors who speak on this specifically.
Have an amazing day!
Love this collection! I think my favorite foundation piece are the ponte pants. I really like how you styled the pants on your photo. I hope I win!
Thank you for introducing us to this line. ?
Really excited for this brand because I tend to wear really bold colorful clothing and these peices are perfect for balancing that out!
I need PANTS!!!!! It’s the one thing I struggle with because of my hips. I love those black ponte pants. They look like a dream.
I’m LIVING for this collection! I can’t decide between the All Day pieces and the Nonstop Top. Love the cuts/lines of all of the garments!
The all day top and pants are so cute and I love that it’s blue.

I love the functionality of ponte pants. They’re not as casual as leggings but gives the same fit as leggings and are more chic.
This is first time I have heard of Brass clothing. I am liking all of the looks. The look that stands out most to me is the All day Tank and Pant. Just the style of it is classy.
I love the ponte pants. I’m missing a cute chic pair of black pants that go with everything and can wear year round. All of mine are too heavy for warmer weather. Thank you for the fabulous giveaway!
Hugs,
