Hello!

There used to be a lovely what are you wearing today? thread(s) on here for people who were plus size (circa 16/18 and up I think).

Could anyone tell me if they've seen one lately please? If there isn't one on the go, would anyone be interested in joining me on here?

I'm size 16/18. Today I'm in a New Look floral dress and DM boots. Pic attached (hopefully).

Welcome @loveislouderthanwar Smile! I love your comfy outfit and also your username ❤!

@WanderingTrolley1, is there no end to your lovely dresses?

I am not dressed yet Blush. Lazy morning. We might hire bikes and go for a ride later today, so I'll be in my jeans I think. 🤞 it doesn't get too warm!

Hmmm. Drizzling today but need to wear shorts for my pedicure. Going to look a bit odd walking down the road in shorts, sandals and a raincoat...

sonjadog · 15/08/2020 11:53

Today’s outfit. Going to a birthday party otherwise I wouldn’t usually be so smart on a Saturday.

Enjoy the pedicure @StCharlotte! I'm Envy of you getting lovely feet, even if you do have to walk in the rain with flip flops on!

Here I am in jeans by only carmokona (or whatever it is) and a Junarose top.

Ooooo love that colour @StCharlotte! I now really want a pedicure EnvyGrin. I should book one, just in case we lock down again. I feel like that about everything atm.

Hey ladies. What are we all wearing today? Its surprisingly humid in the East Anglia today so I'm in Missguided plus dress. I feel like a milkmaid.

Must add this is size 22, a bit big for me as I'm normally 18/20 but a few hot washes has helped!

StCharlotte · 16/08/2020 12:24

That's very cute @LordOfTheOnionRings.

The weather is undecided here. I'm catching up on the housework that I refused to do ehen it was sunny. Wearing denim crop leggings (no idea where from) and a pink 3/4 sleeve long t-shirt from Evans.

LadyPrigsbottom · 16/08/2020 12:34

Oh I like that @LordOfTheOnionRings! It's very cute and summery.

I am in a very boring outfit for a lazy day...seem to be having quite a lot of those recently Blush.

V neck top - XL, Uniqlo
Jeans - 44, only carmonika? Carmikona?...whatever it is!

Hi, have been lurking for the past week but finally have the courage to join in.
Knee length shorts are current from Simply Be. T-shirt Tesco (but a few years ago).
Hate how I look but trying to learn how to dress to suit my horrific body shape.
On the back of this thread I won a sea salt dress from eBay, just waiting on its arrival now.

IslaMann · 16/08/2020 12:51

Oops forgot picture.

@IslaMann you look fantastic!

LadyPrigsbottom · 16/08/2020 13:40

@IslaMann, welcome Smile!

I think we are a really similar shape! You look lovely.

I got a Seasalt dress from eBay while on this thread and I think it might be my favourite dress at the moment. Hope yours is a success too!

That’s a pretty dress, Lord.

@LadyPrigsbottom Really? You certainly don’t look as rotund and dumpy as me. I am v v envious of your legs! I have extremely fat thighs and knees, and a massive c-section x 2 & multiple abdominal surgeries shelf.
5’2” and size 20.
@LordOfTheOnionRings you are very kind.

LadyPrigsbottom · 16/08/2020 17:10

@IslaMann, ah right, I also had a c section, (just one). Tbh, I can't even blame that though, as my shelf existed pre dcs Blush.

I am a 16/18.

Another lovely dress @WanderingTrolley1!

I've enjoyed reading this thread and picking up ideas. Please can I join? I'm a size 16. On holiday by the sea this week. Currently wearing Tu skinny jeans and a William Morris H&M tunic, finished off with a red, wind-burned face!

LadyPrigsbottom · 16/08/2020 20:12

Welcome @brimfullofasha Smile! It is a lovely thread. Everyone is very friendly and I love seeing the pictures every day!

I like the colour of the Asda dress!

Lots of great outfits these past weeks. I have been busy with stuff so not had much time to comment, but I have been looking at the outfits. I love the DMs up thread! I really need new ones for this autumn, but I can't face the thought of breaking them in. I also haven't found ones that I really love yet.

I got a new dress for work yesterday. I also got it in a size smaller than usual, which made me happy. I was a size 18/20 for years and years and then the last year my weight has creeped up to size 20/22, so I want to get back to the 18/20 again. Things are definitely heading in that direction now. :-)

sonjadog · 16/08/2020 22:30

I forgot the photo.
