Hey all! I hate "office appropriate" trousers/pants because I just can not find something that is a good fit.  If it fits in the waist, it is giant everywhere else. And of course, if it if it fits in the hips/legs/butt, it won't zip.  So I end up looking for pull on pants for work attire.  I can wear anything from a 18/20 in pull on pants to a 24, ( Read more... )

I purchased a pair of the Butter Denim skinnies today from Avenue in navy blue.

Happy Halloween everyone! I'm still sick, so I probably won't be able to go out and have fun, but I still wanted to get into a kind of halloweeny spirit. :) And if you are wondering if that's an N7 hoodie... yes that is :)

So, I live in Oregon and it's very rainy. I haven't found a pair of rain boots that fit me correctly (I have the widest damn calves), so I like wearing boots to keep my jeans dry and me warm. I have a pair of boots I love from Torrid, but they are suede and I worry about their ability to survive the rain and general wetness... sooooo I got a pair ( Read more... )

I've forgotten to upload these for the last few weeks, but this is my go-to outfit whenever I just need something comfortable and casual to wear to lunch or something.

I wear a size 16-18 in clothing and a size 10 in shoes.

Chang's (where we had our first date), dessert at Paciugo (Italian gelato, for those that don't know), and rented 21 Jump Street from Redbox. It was a fantastic night, coming off a fantastic day of having my first fitting for ( Read more... )

I ordered this tunic blouse from Avenue when they were having a half off sale. It arrived today, and I was so excited. But when I tried it on, it was tight around my midsection. It fits perfectly everywhere else, and it's so pretty, but I'm feeling kind of let down by the tightness in the midsection. It looked so loose and flowy in the picture, and ( Read more... )

So I went to The Avenue tonight. I look at the jeans and notice they have like a zillion different styles (Like, Hollywood Skinny, Santa Fe Bootcut, etc). I try on my usual size, which is 16. I couldn't get them past my knees. Long story short, I had to buy a size 22 for them to feel remotely comfortable. I think I tried on every style, same thing ( Read more... )
