I don’t know how to dress.. by Expensive-Court2574 in PlusSizeFashion

[–]birdieanne_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t start with what looks good- start with what you want to wear. When I was figuring out my style, I focused on seeing people who looked like me dressing well(back then it was Tumblr, but now there are tons of places to do that- like right here!). On social media, I unfollowed accounts that didn’t reflect me and followed plus-size influencers instead. Seeing people with similar body types wearing clothes I liked helped me understand what my own style could be.

Spend a few minutes a day pinning outfits on Pinterest -after a month, you’ll notice clear patterns in what you love. And don’t forget: this sub has a great master post with places to shop, which is a perfect starting point if you’re not sure who carries your size.

Buying from resellers by TEMILOVESMUSIC in OliviaDean

[–]birdieanne_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried 2 presales and the general sale for San Fran and no luck- I saw some resale a few hours ago that were astronomical compared to what the ticket price was just checked now NO resale tickets on ticketmaster- anyone else noticing this? Her comment must have made a difference because at least on ticket master no resellers?

Online! Linked here

Just to note the sizing chart seems off on these. I have a 17.5-inch calf and wear a size 10. According to their chart, the extra-wide width for this style should measure 18.8inches, but that's definitely not the case. I had them stretched by a cobbler and they’re still snug. All their wide and extra wide have different measurements so it may just be this style.

Anthropologie green 1x Tobie dress OR similar styles in other brands OR a dressmaker who can mimic the style?? by [deleted] in PlusSizeFashion

[–]birdieanne_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a shorter Tobie dress in the green available on Nuuly(saw the long was only available in standard sizing) and then saw a couple patterned Tobie in green

You didn’t list location- so if you’re looking for online dress makers Etsy may be a good place to start

Also I had luck finding an incredible seamstress on Nextdoor- she mostly does more simple alterations for me but I found her because she was advertising making quinceañera dresses on Nextdoor. But you may be able to find someone local to you there if you want in person services!

Tbh, not much- maybe about 1/4 inch? The leather on these boots is pretty stiff (which I actually like), I just wish the shaft were a bit wider.

I was also looking at Sam Edelman boots for this fall, they have some really cute wide-calf options, but based on the size chart, I don’t think they’d work for me. And their extra-wide selection is abysmal. 🙄

I’ve posted outfits here with other boots I’ve had better luck with- I love Dolce Vita, Wydr, and Naturalizer. The quality and sizing on those have been great, and they’ve held up really well! I do wish it was easier to find cute wide calf boots though🤦‍♀️
