Not Enough Professional Plus Size Clothing?


It seems every day I read something that shows me that retailers are SLOWLY getting the point about everyday women and clothing. But last week, I came across an article on PublicRadio.org suggesting that with all of the strides made in plus-size clothing, there is still a lack of professional clothing for the curvy girl. It made me want to take a closer look at my own wardrobe and ask myself whether I own the kinds of fitted, well made pieces an upwardly-mobile person would wear to work. My conclusion is that I do have those things, but a)it has taken me years to collect them and a)I had to do a lot of searching for them when I bought them. I'd love to hear about your experience. Is it easier to find casual or going-out clothes than professional ones? Where do you find the clothes you wear to the office?

Jumpsuits & Rompers: Will You?



On one hand, I love the look of these one-piece creations. So carefree, so youthful. Picnic chic, right? But, when I look logically at a romper or jumpsuit, I think "Now that is for someone who has help getting dressed. Or isn't old enough to dress themselves." Besides the obvious issues of how long it will take you to answer the call of nature while you're wearing a romper and the proclivity toward "camel-toe", is it practical to be a grown woman in a jumpsuit?

Personally, I'll be wearing them a few times over the Summer, but I can't imagine them becoming wardrobe staples. Still, there are some really cute variations that might be changing my tune. I could definitely be talked into these.

What do you think? Will we find out this is a hot trend for warm weather? Or will we rediscover why we stopped wearing rompers in the first place?
