Hey chicas, I just wanted to let you know that both Apple Bottoms and Dereon are running sales from now until November 19th. From now until then you can get $25 off of any $95 purchase from Apple Bottoms plus size clothing. Time to treat yourself to something from the winter line called Winter Glamourland and any other regularly priced plus size collection items from Apple Bottoms.

The really great thing about both Apple Bottoms and Dereon is they know that their girl is a more curvy girl and she likes to show it off. They design their clothing to celebrate the curves instead of hiding them.

I have been a long time shopper at BigGalsLingerie.com and I wanted to really give my readers an idea of what kind of clothing you can find over there. I have to say that JJ has a huge selection of plus size lingerie and plus size clubwear that you really cannot find anywhere else. I put together a little collage video of some of the styles of clothing that I’ve purchased over the years from Big Gal’s to feature on my fan website and wanted to really let people know that there are alternatives out there and actually what she carries is far better than the competition who all carry the same products as each other. All of the clubwear, you really will not find anywhere else. Also Big Gal’s has plus size corsets and plus size bustiers that run up to size 52 which is a lot larger than most other sites. So check it out…

50 Percent Off Plus Size Clearance Torrid
Torrid is having a one day sale tomorrow on 10/21 for 50% off of clearance items. Usually when they do this stuff goes really low so if you want something now would be the time to scoop it all up. There will be lots of plus size clothes on clearance for this sale and really cute plus size pants, plus size tops and dresses. Also get your hands on any of their plus size lingerie that will be on clearance and any shoes or accessories that you were putting off. I love when they have one of these super clearance sales, the prices can’t be beat!

Forever 21 Is a Plus Size Fail
I do get it that a lot of companies are jumping on the plus size band wagon. I know Delia’s has plus size and some other stores as well. There are top name designers who are now catering to plus sizes up to a size 24 and there are several plus size chains and web-based companies who are exclusively plus size. However, I would like to talk about Forever21′s plus size collection. Forever 21 carries their Faith21 line in select locations and I just happen to live about an hour away from the Holyoke, MA location so I took a drive down about two weeks ago. They have a very limited size range which goes from 1x-3x and those sizes would approximately fit size 14/16- 18/20 (size 20 is pushing it). Over the years I have run the gammut of clothing sizes from 14-28 so I can look at something and know if it’s going to fit me or not, regardless of the size that is on the label.
First of all, I walked into the store which did seem to have a good number of employees yet nobody ever greeted me upon entering the location nor did anyone at any time come up to me and ask me if I needed any assistance in finding anything or if I was looking for something special. I was left to my own devices. It is a very nice store, very large and I can see how people could possibly get overlooked. However, I did observe an employee who was busy folding clothes while he was busy flirting with a guy who was in there chatting up a storm with him!
So if you are on the bottom end of the plus size scale you should have no problem squeezing your fat butt into their clothing as long as you like helping yourself when you go shopping there. I mean for that matter you could just shop online where nobody helps you anyway, at least online you kind of expect it and you know that your money is not getting spent on someone who gets paid to flirt. I don’t know that’s just me. This is just my experience that I had in one store and was disappointed with the whole thing. If stores want to truly cater to plus sizes, they should understand what the plus size market is comprised of. But I fully understand that they are just not ready to have an army of fatties in their stores wearing their clothing. I guess companies are willing to forgo the green when it comes to who wears their stuff.
I am not saying that I should not have to lose weight or anything, however I am the size I am right now and right now I am looking to find the best clothes I can to put myself in the best possible light. The bottom line is Faith21 does not allow me to do that with their clothes so I have to continue to shop elsewhere.
