One of my biggest pet peeves is to see a beautifully designed dress or blouse, only to find it doesn't go larger than a 36" bust or a 28" waist. If my sewing skills were better, I would complete devote my time to making more clothes for girls sizes 10/12 and up! I’m excited to read this article on Etsy for the fuller-figured gals!

Traditional wisdom says the longer the skirt hem, the worse the recession. Get those hems back up! Long skirts = bad news on the economic front.

That would be so nice if they became more widely available; then I wouldn't quite feel like such a freak walking around in my *long* skirts. lol!! I love how elegant longer hemlines are!!

I think zara is an incredible company in the way that they do business. And unlike H&M, when I went to H&M i was underwhelmed and wasnt that different from what I'd find at f21 some of the stuff. Zara stuff is actually of pretty impressive quality for an amazing price. As for as stealing style from other cultures, to just put it bluntly, it's something white people need to be careful with. But really regardless of race it goes more on the intention behind it, and that anybody that's going to take something from another culture needs to be mindful of its connotations.

But I've passed up some other long skirts because I just couldn't see wearing them ever and closet space is at a premium.
