Most people talk about boleros and shrugs clubbed together in the same breath when there is a fine difference between the two. A shrug is worn over another dress or an outfit and is a form of cropped cardigan that stops below the waist. It can be matched with flowing pants, lightweight tops and tanks, or a dress. Shrugs are available with long or short sleeves and are good for any occasion, regardless of whether it is a casual outing with friends or a formal do at the office. Bolero jackets are similarly worn over a dress or any other outfit but there is no limitation on the length. Bolero jackets are often made of flowing materials that go below hip length or one that stops just above the waist. These jackets are generally good for formal occasions like an evening date out and are available in elaborate designs. The more flamboyant ones have fine embroidery or beads embedded all over.
Plus size boleros and shrugshave several advantages. A loose-fitting one will help to hide the flab around the mid-riff. Heavier women usually have a lot of fat around the upper arms too which is an embarrassment if one wears a wispy short-sleeved flowery dress. That problem gets resolved with a bolero or shrug over the dress.
With plus size boleros and shrugs, women on the larger side add value to their wardrobe. They often do not get the dresses of their choice in their size. This results in a limited wardrobe. But the choice in boleros and shrugs covers a range of designs and patterns and buying them adds value to the wardrobe as the existing dresses can be matched with the boleros or shrugs for an altogether new look. If you are buying plus size boleros and shrugs keep in mind certain aspects. First, wear the dress or outfit that you want to match the bolero or shrug with to the store to see whether the color and the design or size match perfectly. It makes no sense to come back home and see that the bolero or shrug is too tight over the intended dress. If you are unable to do so, do not remove the tag until you wear it over the dress at home and is satisfied. This does not apply to online purchases.
The next aspect is the materials of the plus size boleros and shrugs. If you intend to cover the mid-riff buy one that is made of slightly heavier material as it will fall perfectly over your dress. Light lacy boleros will be revealing and will not serve your purpose. The length of the sleeves is a factor too as your intention should be to have the upper arms covered. Wear a sleeveless bolero or shrug if you wear a sleeved dress with the converse being true too.
