Why the pictures matter.

By | February 25, 2011

Longtime readers know that for a couple of years I made frequent photo posts about my outfits, some on this blog, but more regularly on the Fatshionista LiveJournal community where I used to be a maintainer. Lately, my long-dormant outfit-picture urge has been rising again watching all the outfits go by on the Fa(t)shion February […]

All the young punks: On boots past, present, and metaphorical.

By | December 22, 2010

I bought my first pair of boots when I was fourteen, at a shop called The Wild Pair in the Palm Beach Mall.

Our most recent episode discusses Beth Ditto’s collection for Evans, communal shopping experiences, and international fat activism. Check it out here.

It’s Friday, I have clothes on, and I am trying to revive this [picture-taking] habit. The green cropped cardigan came from Target; I can often smush my fatness into their XL sweaters and I make the most of that fact. The navy and white polka-dot dress is by Jane Bon Bon. The white cotton slip […]

I took a picture on Friday afternoon anyway. Because it’s been awhile. What you’re seeing above is a Calvin Klein dress […]

Outfitblog. (And an Unstapled anti-recap.)

By | March 12, 2010

I caught the last fifteen minutes of the last episode (hopefully forEVER) of Unstapled last night, and felt totally justified in abandoning my recaps. The moral to the story is: nobody learns anything, nothing changes, but at least it’s over. Bust out the champers! On the up side, Chynna Phillips (late of Wilson Phillips) turned […]

Bigger versions and specifics after the jump. Brown dress is from eShakti; yellow & taupe snake-print cardi is from Marshalls; purple tights from We Love Colors; […]
