I bought this shirt in a 3X from Addition-Elle for about $20 during their Boxing Week sale. I really like it, but like most of Addition-Elle's items, it wasn't worth its original price of around $50. These jeans are the Diva Skinny jeans from Old Navy in Dark Blue and a size 18. They do stretch out after wear but they are great. Maybe it's just my hips and legs but I love the way they fit (I should mention that my hips are 52"). I will definitely be buying these in a few other colours as Old Navy jeans are very hit or miss but when they work they really work for my body. And who can say no at only $40? The scarf is second hand and really fabulous, if a bit itchy (and I only threw it on for the photo).
I wasn't sure about posting this next picture because it really shows of my lumps and bumps but after seeing the following picture on Adipositivity I knew that it was fate of some sorts that I share this fattyfat photo with the online world.
I love that shirt! I'm secretly in love with horizontal stripes, too, fat girl rules be damned. I've never had any luck with old navy jeans - I guess I'm shaped wrong for them or something - but they totally work for you.
ReplyDeletethank you! fat girl clothing rules are made to be broken :)
ReplyDeleteI have always loved horizontal stripes. I dont understand why people would always tell me not to wear them. I dont give a...I think they are awesone!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I love them too, I had a bit too much of them after Jr. high (ha!), but they're back to being totally fabulous IMO
ReplyDeleteI love horizontal stripes! Though I've only got one item in my closet that has them.. love them nonetheless!
ReplyDeletebtw, <3 the T&S arrow bag. Wish I had the chance to see them when they played in the UK :-(

Own it, girlie--you look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI never wear jeans and I recall having a complicated relationship with Old Navy when I did, but those fit you like a dream.
Hey,
ReplyDeleteThere's a picture of you going around on the weightloss tumblr community using one of these photos in a "before and after" photoset.
I recognized you and wanted to make sure it was you.
I just thought I'd let you know
