The second installment of the fall 2009 trend alerts comes in the form of strong shoulders. Recently seen on everyone from Victoria Beckham to Rihanna to Kim Kardashian, this structured trend is taking over the fashion world. A new and evolved version of the 80s shoulderpads, strong shoulders gives a powerful feel to even the most basic shirts. Below are a few pieces you can add to give your fall wardrobe a totally new feeling.
People may feel that because many of the pieces go up to a UK20/22 that they cannot wear it if they are larger than those sizes. I beg to differ, I have lots of UK20/22 items in my closet and I am a US 22/24. Many, if not all, of these items are made up of jersey and we all know that jersey stretches. Do not be fooled by the size that is on the tag, try things on because they just may fit.
