Black dress from eShakti.com; black cardi from LB, years ago; studded suede belt from Torrid, also years ago; purplish tights from We Love Colors; green plaid scarf from Marshalls; shoes are vintage Capezios; orca from Northeast Animal Shelter in Salem, MA.
Happy Halloween, kids. It’s been such a rollercoaster of a month, I have no costume plans, so if I do wind up throwing something together tomorrow (we have a couple of party invites which we may or may not accept) it’ll be a Wacky Surprise. Leopard-spotty dress is from Evans; purple cardi is really old, […]
Black wrap dress from Curvy Girl Clothing (discontinued); denim vest (ha) from Torrid; brown fake-pashmina from eBay; brass locket from katinkapinka on Etsy; metallic t-strap flats by Privo. More after the jump. Black dress from Lane Bryant, via AJ Wright; grey silk cardi by Jones New York, via Peter Harris; brown belt and steel buckle […]
(I wore this to go applepicking, hence the hiking boots.) Print sundress from Avenue; brown cardi from Jessica London; green-and-black plaid scarf from Marshalls; leggings from Avenue; beloved hiking boots by Columbia Sportswear. More after the jump. Yellow dot dress is by Calvin Klein (by way of Ross); black tie-neck sweater is from Torrid, two […]
This should have gone up on Friday, but I was out of town for a long weekend, so better late than never. Black dress is pre-pink Torrid (I think it’s the only pre-pink item I have left; it used to have red tulle that poked out of the bottom but I cut that shit off); […]
I’ve been doing quite a bit of shopping-in-my-closet (and, truth be told, on Etsy) lately, as well as revisiting my slightly-embarrassing goth past. Which of these things is invoking the other, I have no idea; it’s a real chicken-or-the-egg scenario. Brown shirtdress is LB by way of AJ Wright; purple cardi is from Torrid; leather […]
Black dress is from eShakti.com; grey cardi is from Avenue (now consumed by Jessica London, a development with which I am not entirely displeased); green and black plaid scarf from Marshalls; shoes by Dansko. Several weeks ago I was contacted by a rep from Marshalls/TJ Maxx asking for a little blog promo in exchange for […]
Another Tuesday, another handful of MODE scans. For the record, anyone interested in these scans is free to take them and do with them as you will; obviously I can claim no copyright restrictions on these materials. On to the scans! Even the premier plus-size fashion magazine had to occasionally cop to the fact that […]
Remember when Emme wasn’t a host on a terrible and depressing reality show? More MODE scans after the jump. Before she hosted More to Love, Emme was a model! She also wrote an advice column for MODE that was often insightful, positive, and smart. In the example to the left, Emme discourages plastic surgery, offers […]
For the uninitiated – MODE was a US-based mainstream plus-size fashion magazine that began publishing in 1997 and ceased in 2001. In my estimation it was the only plus-size fashion magazine that ever had any style. Information on MODE can be hard to find, but this Wikipedia article offers some insights. I loved MODE and […]
