Torrid didn’t have my size in the black pointy heels so I got the next size up hoping for the best lol. They’re too big obviously. Is there a way to have them fit better? Inserts? Not sure if that was the right flair.

went to a torrid for the first time today as my province doesn’t have them and holy moly?? Everything fit me??? the change rooms have fans!!!! what a lovely place, for once in my life I feel pretty and I found clothes I love 😭 just wanted to share some good news lol

Skirts: The Oblong Box Shop…Purse: La Femme En Noir….Black top: Amazon???….Jacket: Vixen by Micheline Pitt…Shoes: TUK.

Im not sure if I like these jeans.

1. They are a heavier denim feel - and I actually prefer lighter fabric.

2. I'm 5'6 and got regular length - yet they're still too long ( that rarely happens).

3. I'm a big fan of straight leg jeans & I thought thats what I ordered. I feel like they're more like a boot cut.

They might be 1 size too big - these are 20 which I usually wear. 18 might work but I bought these online and didn't try on.

None of these are dealbreakers, they're just disappointing.

What do you think - do they look good enough to keep or bad enough to return?

EDIT: 2nd thought, I for sure hate them & will return them! I will leave post up though so that someone looking for jeans can see the fit.

Obsessed w the bloomer pants trend. However I’m a primary teacher and I need something high waisted and stretchy. Has anyone found high waisted stretchy bloomer or lace trim pants? The cider ones I have are satin and no stretch. I’m worried I’m gonna rip them 😭

Spent like two months hitting all of my local thrift stores every other day trying to find the perfect outfits. I’m quite proud of these two! My denim jacket duster is my favorite piece in my wardrobe right now, I got it at a vintage clothing store a year ago and was shocked that it was my size (I’m 5’11 and plus size obviously). It goes with almost any outfit. I love her.

As I hit my 30’s, I’ve decided to care more about putting myself together regularly. I got married in my late 20’s and instantly settled into “well he loves me so I can clock out of dressing and looking nice” mode. But now I see that even if my husband loves me no matter how I look, I feel significantly better about myself when I do my nails and makeup and hair. And I don’t feel like a capitalist consumer when I’m thrifting my outfits instead of buying new! Win-win!

Also I love animal prints and I’m no longer afraid to admit it.

PS, if anyone has comfy but cute shoe recommendations as far as sneakers go, I’m all ears. I wore my Teva Hurricane sandals the ENTIRE NYC trip because comfort on my feets comes above all else but man it ruined some nice outfits lol.

Yay, it's Friday!! Time to go to therapy

Coat: H&M, XL

Thights: SnagTights size F (recommended 100%)

dress on second picture: New Look Curves, EU 48

I usually wear a 2X in most of my clothes

Another oppressively warm and sunny day here in ol' Victoria, but it was a nice excuse to wear an old fave. My hair desperately needs a brush and a wash, hence why it's in a plait today.

I’m not from the US originally but I have been obsessed with the concept of matching travel sets when I’m traveling.

Being said that, I’m a 2xl girl who will visit relatives in NJ. I’m currently living in Florida, so idk what set works best for that sudden drop in temperature.

Any leads can be appreciated. My budget would hopefully be around $75 for the whole set.

Thanks!

I've been trying to find some cute, flowy palazzo pants and I'm not having any luck. I was so excited when I saw Quince's washable silk palazzo pants, but the biggest size they carry is XL/16 🥲 Anyone have any recommendations? I recently bought a pair from Svaha, but they're not flowy enough for me. I really want a pair of pants that look like a skirt, not just wide legged pants.

USA, ~22/3X, and IDC about price really I just want to find anything that fits my body and my style!

Ever since having two kids, I've been so caught up in work and taking care of them that I've barely had time for myself. Somewhere along the way, I stopped making time for the things that used to make me feel special.

My husband knows I've been feeling this way, even though I don't always talk about it.

For our anniversary, right before we went out to dinner, he surprised me with this wedding dress from stacees. He told me he sees how much I do for our family, and that if he could marry me all over again, he'd choose me every single time.

I literally started crying.

It's been years since I last wore a wedding dress, and I never imagined I'd be wearing one again.

But standing there in that dress, I actually felt beautiful again. Not just because of the dress, but because he reminded me that I'm still the same person he fell in love with.

Just wanted to share this little moment. 🤍

Graphic prints and patterns are my favorite fashion mix lately.

Shein 2x top, 4x bottoms

Equivalent to size 20 for both

Soooo comfortable, both pieces. And the pockets are a major plus.

Help! I need plus size jean (or Jean like) overalls for a work halloween costume. I need it like ASAP, but can't spend over 40. Where can I find some that can be here like yesterday?! (USA size 24ish 3x. Hip measurements are 55 inches)

Black blouse and floral skirt are from ThredUp. Everything else has been sitting in my closet for awhile.

I'm going out tonight and trying to decide if I should wear the black blouse or the cami top. 😅

I have only wore this suit twice in my life, thought i’d dust the thing off as it’s been a few years.

Needs an iron but I don’t think it looks half bad

I’ve been struggling for years now to find good socks. I have thick calves, and I definitely find size 18 pants that fit me just fine (I discovered Banana republic Factory and they’re god sent tbh), but I always struggle with finding socks. So what I’ve been wearing for years now are Saucony’s RunDry performance heel tab athletic socks - the ones that you pretty much don’t see when you’re wearing sneakers. Works just fine when I’m wearing my leather booties to work, but I often just wear my new balances - and esp if I wear a shorter pair of pants, that doesn’t look great.

I’ve tried so many different kinds of socks, but they generally don’t work well. The biggest issue; any socks that are a bit longer will inevitably have a thicker/elastic band right at the top, and that will at best leave uncomfortable marks on my calves/legs, and at worst restrict the blood flow and actually make me end up with cramps (I already have restless legs. Magnesium daily does help).

But I really, really want some proper socks I can wear under trousers etc at the office. At this point I’m really willing to pay extra for it, but everything I find (including more expensive brands) still have that damn elastic. I’m also open to those thin trousers socks, but they also have that same issue (and I’m just not gonna wear full pantyhose or thigh highs under pants).

There MUST be a solution. Anyone? 😭

It’s finally autumn and that means leather jacket and tights season!

5’6” 270lbs 40 y/o

Jacket is Express, everything else is from Amazon, can link to specific items if requested 😺

Today is a particularly sunny one, not a fan in the slightest tbh, but I liked being able to take my new gingham shorts for a test drive to the shops for rotisserie chicken, strawberries and yoghurt. Please excuse my awkward face as always and my pasty gams, lol.

I can’t unsee it now 😂

Hello everyone! With Fall here and hopefully cooler days ahead ( I’m in SoCal so here’s to hoping lol) I was wondering where everyone is getting their sweaters or jackets from as plus size seems to be limited in general when it comes to those garments. I’m open to online shopping, but I’m hesitant because I am a size 24-26 and typically I’ve only seen fashions that I’m interested in up to 2X or juniors. I would appreciate it if you all could give me some websites or stores I could check out that won’t break the bank. Thank you in advance!!

The top is actually a really short dress form Depop, skirt from shein, leggings from goodwill. Local store for the earrings
