    Was always my vent when shopping " WTF can't I get clothes as cute as Juniors?"...{{giggle}} now...I can ;) I worked for it...and I appreciate the new privilege!

    I have seen some VERY well dressed larger woman...what they choose to wear, how they carry themselves and how they are shaped I think played a part on their fashion. I personally when larger would just make it worse by purchasing clothes larger than I really was to try and hide it :(

    This!!!!

    And I think "pears" can wear things better than "apples." Alas... I am an apple. And I remember walking into one store, taking a look at the plus sized clothes and simply walking away in disgust at the material patterns. I swear they took upholstery fabric to make those tops. Just what I want... to look like Great Aunt Ophelia's sofa in the guest parlor. Sigh.

    Working my way back to "normal" sizes is hard... but I will get there some day.

    Is that nude design the plus size option of Miley Cyrus' most recent outfit of horrors?

    not to body shame, but those are really nonchesty models (at least in the way the pics are presented). Normally that's a huge asset...

    anyway. back to our regularly scheduled programming (grabs popcorn).
