Hey everyone ( Read more... )

It is this pair that I am speaking of. I've read reviews saying that they do stretch out as you wear them like most jeans do, but I've also read reviews saying that they do not. I've tried them on, and I'm wondering whether to go with the size that fit perfect from the start or whether to go with the size that was a bit snug in anticipation of them ( Read more... )

Next week my partner and I are going to the Philly AIDS Thrift to stock up on warm weather clothing. I know thrift stores are a grab bag, and so I cannot guarantee that I'll find any particular brand or anything (I also know to try on things even if the tags say they're not the right size). What I'm wondering is if anyone who thrifts in the ( Read more... )

Howdy! It appears I'm about to be in the market for maternity clothes. I went hunting through the tags, and it seems the last post on the subject was a couple of years ago. To update on that, it seems that Old Navy doesn't have maternity in Plus anymore (did it ever?), Lane Bryant doesn't anymore (nor do its sister stores), Torrid doesn't; JC ( Read more... )

Is this possible?

Okay, no, of course it's possible: I've seen so many of you do it.

I know we've all seen a million boots posts, so I'm sorry to add to the melee, but what boots do you guys love best? I live in NYC so need to be able to walk around all day - so no heels for me!, and I have big ol'20 inch calves from doing that walking around all day. I've had great results with torrid in the past (the sizing is perfect for me - a ( Read more... )

I just came into a bit of money for my birthday and am looking to buy some things online. I especially would like to find stuff that would go with this blazer I just bought from Torrid. Some other things I am interested in are denim jeggings (that can be worn as pants), casual dresses that can be worn with leggings (either full or cropped), and ( Read more... )

I am going to a burlesque show in a few weeks, and I want to dress up a little. I have the basic outfit; a short sleeved leopard print blouse with a dark denim-y blue poplin skort, and pink heels ( Read more... )
