So I know I asked about Southwest before and the early bird check-in was super helpful since I was able pick a row and my friends were able to sit next to me. The seatbelt ended up not fitting (by 2-3 inches!) and I had asked for a extender but both times the attendents forgot I asked so I went seatbelt-less to and from. Which I don't mind but I ( Read more... )

My best friend is having a 90's themed bachelorette party, and I need help putting an outfit together! I was a 90's kid, so I know what it's all about, I'm just looking for some creative inspiration! I would love it if you could link me to some awesome clothes! :]

Does anyone here work in a creative professional environment, e.g. an ad agency? Looking for ideas on interview outfits (avoiding pencil skirts), everyday work clothes, and stores to shop at. I'm about a size 20 and need a tall inseam for pants ( Read more... )

Hey Fatshionistas :)

My name's Linda Dianne and a while back I used to be a somewhat active member of this community--and I have to say, it changed my life. I hope it is still kicking butt and taking names! While I haven't been active within the community for a few years now, the impact Fatshionista made has been felt in other aspects of my life, ( Read more... )

I am...not a fashion person. Not to say that I'm not fashionable, but more that I value comfort and my personal sanity over trendy fashion. XD Over the past year I've been very much trying to expand my wardrobe and what I feel comfortable in, and while I've come a ( Read more... )

Hey Fellow Fats!

I've been wracking my brain over what to go as for Halloween and I hit upon the idea of going as Ruby Gloom. It's a super simple costume (black dress, striped stockings, and mary-jane shoes). I should be able to find the dress, but the stockings/tights are where I'm coming up short. Anyone have any suggestions?

Hello ( 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... )

I am having a pants problem, fellow fats. None of the pants I try on want to fit me. They're either too tight/loose on the waist/hips while fitting the other just fine, and they also all seem to have a ridiculous rise on me. See, my pants-wearing waist is actually around my bellybutton, and any pants made by Lane Bryant rise at least 2-3 inches ( Read more... )
