Hourglass: Try fitted styles that emphasize your waist
Dawnn Karen, author of Dress Your Best Life , has been saying all along, through our clothing, we can actually have a sense of control. And for plus size professionals who have spent years being handed almost fits and this is what we have, that control is everything
The heels are over four inches and are a bit hard to walk in (not something Id wear all day long) but for the office or even a nighttime outing would be completely doable
Chic, smart dresses of all lengths are usually fine for garden party-style affairs, and heels can generally be worn, unless otherwise specified - though perhaps opt for wedges if you know you'll spend the day on grass
Depending on where you carry your weight you might be able to try a straight Bermuda length short, but Id advise trying these on in person
