Given this is a holiday week here in the US, and I’m expecting an influx of out-of-town family for most of the week and into this weekend, I don’t anticipate having time or energy to post much of substance for the next several days. So I’m re-sharing a video that was among the first things […]
Only the one this week. See previous post. 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.
Hello, my loves, and apologies for my prolonged silence; my husband and I were out of town for a short vacation last week, and, unsurprisingly, my blogging has suffered. In other news: This is Rufus. Rufus is one of a pair of abandoned cats my husband and I adopted from the Northeast Animal Shelter in […]
Tomorrow, the long-awaited and much-buzzed-about (not to mention awkwardly-titled) Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire opens in theaters, and unsurprisingly, the reviews are overwhelmingly effusive thus far. As much as I’d love it if Hollywood felt compelled to send me a screener of every movie with a fat protagonist (c’mon Hollywood, it’s not […]
I had reason today to thumb through the archives on this site, something I do embarrassingly infrequently. It’s as though the archives are a cluttered attic and I keep finding shit waaay in the back I’d totally forgotten about. In my time-travels I ran across a few seasonally-appropriate posts that may appeal to some folks […]
A couple of interesting points about this. First of all, it’s on Style.com, the internet version of Vogue, and a site hardly known for their thorough and exhaustive reporting on plus-size-accessible fashion. It’s actually on the front page of the site today, which is pretty fantastic. More than that, however, I love Ditto’s candor about […]
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, […]
In the absence of my own content as of yet this week, here is a delicious link buffet. First: Why Fat Studies (and All Identity Studies) Hurt Higher Education*: The author argues, in a nutshell, that when it comes to identity politics and academia, ne’er the twain shall meet. Or at least that when they […]
There’s a quaint little shop that’s opened up in my ‘hood that I’ve discovered I enjoy. Though it has no knowledge of two whole cakes it does carry whatever my fellow hoodlums sell or trade in. In bright green and annoying font I passed by grudgingly, surely they’d have nothing for me. I had just […]
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 […]
