mildly curious.

Am fat and scruffy myself, but wondered about the rest of you.

Thin and scruffy. Just not too thin.

I think if you are thin you can get away with being more "scruffy" than if you are larger.

like, you can wear jeans and vest tops and hair in pony tail and look OK still.

Thin and scruffy the way to go. After all Kate Moss has done all right for herself

No, you cannot have Kate Moss under "thin and scruffy" That's cheating! If she's scruffy then I'm thin

Am fat and stylish. Would much prefer thin and scruffy, OBV...

Am fat and stylish too - but quite happy with it (despite teetering ill-advisedly on the brink of that Lighter Life thing - and deciding against it - recently). Spent a lot of my teens eating 2 apples and a diet yoghurt per day and being 6.5 stone - so being fat, stylish and reasonably happy with myself means I've come a longgggg way psychologically!

might be nice to have boobs for once... so I'll go for fat (well curvily plump) and stylish!
I think I'm reasonably stylish (coast, Karen Millen, topshop and Abercrombie and Fitch for mooching around house) and I share clothes with my daughter BUT I am built like a 14 year old, without sounding ungrateful it is a real pita trying to find jeans etc that fit as I'm 5ft4 and 6st12ish
