Perfect example of why I don’t really like Forever 21. They’re lazy about their plus size section. I didn’t even know they had swim wear. I believe they’re slowly expanding. But this…

LOOK AT ALL THE TIME AND EFFORT they place into making rows upon rows of straight sized bathing suits. 

And what do they have in the plus size section? A FUCKING COVER UP!

All they have to offer me is something to COVER UP MY BODY (which I barely squeeze into their largest size, mind you. They have such a shitty expanse of sizes). All the straight sized bathing suits are revealing two pieces…and then you have the cover up. The lonesome cover up just sitting in their plus size section.

Dude. Their Plus-size section on their website (and sometimes even in select stores) fucking slays me.

also known as: fat girl in the mall. we’ve got maybe a lane bryant if we’re lucky, and that’s it.

I feel like Dots and Torrid are the only places I can go to find fashionable fat clothes. Lane Bryant is basically like an old lady selection and every other place does shit like this.

literally on f21’s site right now picking through the masses of ugly plus-size tops looking for just one cute one

this is accurate af

This annoys the fuck out of me because I’m plus sized and I really want to wear cute clothes. Not something that covers me up in the ugliest tops ever ( I HATE those big pattern clothes and kimono like tops, gtfo). 

I wish there was a Torrid when I lived in Canada because at least I could try and look hot. I just have to settle for my skinny jeans and t-shirts for now. 

You have no idea how much I feel this. The F21 in my mall doesn’t have a plus size section (They’re about to open an expansion, so they probably will soon) But the one in Tampa does and I was all excited to go see it while my friend was shopping in the huuuuuuuge ass rest of the store. 

It was in a corner by the bathroom. like 10 things. 

Lane Bryant sooometimes has nice things (of course the one in my mall had to close….) but their outlet stores are more catered to younger people… if you can find one. 

Torrid has great stuff, but it’s shitty quality and overpriced. 

I’ve been to a dots once, but there’s not one close enough to me for me to appreciate it. 

Rainbow has a very nice plus size section but the quality is SO BAD that it falls apart within months. 

Other than that, maybe you’ll get lucky and walmart will have something slightly attractive. 

I don’t even try department stores anymore, because OBVIOUSLY THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT WEAR PLUS SIZE CLOTHES TO THEM ARE OLD LADIES.

Best tip I ever learned: DEODORANT UNDER YOUR BOOBS

sounds weird, works like a charm 

I am among people who understand. ;-;

My new “Bored?” exercise jar. I found a similar jar on Pinterest in which parents would put activities for their kids to do, and it just made sense to me: if I’m trying to get in shape and I have nothing to do/am bored, why not have a list of things to do, cut it up, and choose one from a jar?
