>>252001I wear any of these two, either a comfy jumpsuit or a short dress. You will want short stuff because changing rooms can turn into a disgusting mess, so long dresses/pants will be a bitch to put on. You will also feel too tired to deal with denim anything, buttons, fliers, or scratchy fabrics, so make sure it’s cotton clothes and with drawstrings or something you can just put on without struggling.
It’s better to go to the beach with a swimsuit in white or light colors because exposing yourself to the sun wearing dark colors can be harmful for your skin
or at least I read that once and now I’m schizo about itWear sandals, they’re more comfortable than anything with socks, keep a cap or hat around, lots of sunscreen and water. Also don’t forget to pack extra underwear or even extra clothes and towels, I think it’s better to keep a claw clip around instead of hair ties because putting on a hair tie with wet, salty hair makes me want to kill myself.
I hope you have a good time,
nonnie.

Dress it up with a nice pair of heels or sandals, a small crossbody purse or clutch and nice jewelry and you're all set.

>>252331Other than the dress, you could buy the pieces for these outfits basically anywhere. I see a gray plaid mini skirt, black shorts and skinny jeans, red flannels, and plain sweaters, turtle necks and t-shirts. Even the jewelery and shoes are literally things you could find at target or on amazon.
>>252276It sounds like you're overthinking it nona. The most important thing is that jewelery should match the other jewelery you're wearing. If you want to bring in colors or design elements from your outfit you can, but you don't have to. The only other thing I can think of to watch out for is making sure necklaces don't clash with the neckline of your top.

I remember it was like my first time on the internet and all of the clothes looked so pretty and aesthetic. I really wanted to dress like a cool american/californian girl but i was too young to buy my own clothes and pick what I wore.
Now I'm old enough to choose my clothes, I really want to wear like
>white converse
>'boho' clothes, like tassled cardigans/boots and tatty denim shorts
>skater dresses with long cardigans

>>252331Solid dark colors instead of the plaid/tartan patterns. More structured pieces instead of the slouchy jacket. Longer skirts that hit above the knees instead of mid thigh. The dress is cute, but I’d forgo the lace and perhaps either get one with a longer skirt or longer sleeves. Go for items with good quality material, something that looks thick and heavy rather than artificial and shiny.
Why not ask your moid what he’d be interested in seeing you wear and use that to gage if he has any fashion sense or an idea what you like. If he doesn’t, disregard and wear whatever, he may not even notice the outfit change. If he does it could be fun to dress each other up.
Ultimately it doesn’t matter, wear what makes you happy and what you can afford and ideally if you can the best advice for a wardrobe that looks mature/put together: get your things tailored.

>>253373I think there are a few aspects that help people avoid this.
>Fit. Clothes should flatter your body and not look like a pile of hand-me-downs you threw on. Be picky about how things lay on you, have something tailored if you love it but it doesn't look right at first. Loose/baggy styles are fine so long as you can still tell you have a body underneath them.>Accessories. When you're wearing a loud outfit, to avoid that being the sole focus wear jewelry that also draws attention to the hands, face, neck, etc. >Makeup. I'm never going to say women have to wear makeup but it can help make your face pop where it may otherwise be washed out. You can choose just one feature to emphasize and pair with your outfit like eyeshadow color, lipstick, blush. >Hair. Don't let it be an afterthought and think about how it pairs with your outfit. Wearing your hair down when a major focus of your outfit is your top's collar, for example, can take away from its effect.I feel like Indian fashion is a great example of this. A lot of Bollywood stars wear extremely colorful, vibrant, busy prints and patterns, and while it's a lot, I think it usually works. They typically use a lot of makeup and accessories, but even when they don't, they tend to look good because everything complements their body and they look well groomed/put together. Just remember that whenever you wear something unconventional it will always lead to strong reactions, many positive but others not so much. If an outfit makes you smile and feel confident that's all that really matters.

>>253373I'm like 1 foot tall so this is a big problem for me. Keep in mind I am a very casual dresser, so this is relative. I hate Kibbe but I learned about how important fabric weight and draping can be through Kibbe. I've found that I look best and least overwhelmed with very drapey fabrics. Stiff and structured garments seem to "wear me." Also as soon as I am uncomfortable with any aspect of the outfit I know it will be "wearing me." If I am fully confident in it then I wear the fuck out of my outfit.
Another thing that helped me personally but by no means is a hard rule, is dressing for the area you live in/are going to. I tried a few things that I saw online that looked really cute and not out of place but when I tried wearing those fashions in my life, I was uncomfortable with the look. Think t-shirt and denim cutoff shorts paired with high heeled sandals (same vibe as picrel). This probably works for a lot of women but in my middle-to-lower-class area, I stuck out like a sore thumb. I mean I knew I wouldn't exactly blend into the background at the grocery store in heels, but I felt very, very uncomfortable which was a sign that the shoes were wearing me. It's taken a bit of that embarrassing trial-and-error but that's the nature of personal style and I try not to get too cringed out by it. If you have a more confident and boisterous personality, the heels might not be an issue for you as it was for me, so it's very personal. The way I remedied the situation was by toning it down a bit & buying a pair of like 1.5 inch sandals that give the same feel of grungey outfit + feminine shoes without making me feel self-conscious.
I'll post a pic of the first pair of heels vs. the second pair if I can find them bc the contrast between them is kind of hilarious. I feel like it's very difficult to gauge how I am going to feel in a particular LEWK or style until I try it irl, as opposed to being able to gauge it just by looking at photos, if that makes sense.
This isn't going to be true for everyone obviously, but this is how I've learned over the years not to let clothes wear me. I still deal with this issue every time I get dressed but it gets easier and easier over time.

>>253532LOL this is embarrassing but here is an example of the types of shoes that I thought I could wear casually (I was young ok?? And spent way too much time on Tumblr. This was a huge lesson learned kek) vs. what I can easily wear and feel cute in. I didn't really know that the first pair were like, clubbing heels, (I really like bright green kek) because my perspective was a bit skewed from looking at too many fashion bloggers who wear crazy shit regularly. The contrast of the two pairs is admittedly hilarious though. Now you see why I try not to cringe myself out of existance for wearing the green ones to the grocery store lol but it's a learning process and every failure is a new lessin learned. Eventually you will know from experience what kind of clothes you can wear and vice versa. This turned into a blogpost, my lord. I'll shut up now but that was an interesting question,
>>253373. This was part of my personal styling ~journey~; if you want to wear outlandish shit I say go for it and see how you feel! It's the only way.

Recently had an interesting experience ordering clothes online.
Found this brand that sews its clothes in Ukraine (
https://www.lipinskaya-brand.com/en/) and was a little intrigued. Debatable whether a Ukrainian sewing operation is any better than a Chinese one but I'm Ukrainian living in Norway so Slava ukraine and all that. I ordered a dress and a body totalling about 70USD.
(
https://www.lipinskaya-brand.com/katalog/platya/koktejlnye-platja/sinie-oblegayushhee-plate-mini-little-art-382/ this dress specifically - love a little over the top eastern european number. )
Then the war broke out and I just sort of assumed that those $70 ended up being a donation to the UKRAINIAN RELIEF FUND and I'd never see the goods, fine by me. A month goes by and I get a notification on my phone that there's a package waiting for me from Odessa, from some man named Alaksander. Don't know anyone in Odessa, but okay.
You can see where this is going. It was my order, sent from a private person, with the addresses written by hand. The clothes fit like they were made for me and have great stitching. Hate to say great customer service 5 stars would buy again but great customer service 5 stars would buy again.
Reading this back it sounds like a sponsored post but actually I wouldn’t recommend ordering anything yet, considering how Odessa just got its shit handed by Russia… Wouldn’t want Aleksander forced to fulfill orders under duress.

My uni is in a big city so looking like a freak there is not a problem at all and I feel confident. Commuting to it is a different story, since I live in a small boring town. I feel like a freak when I'm walking to the train station kek. The feeling of sticking out like a sore thumb subsided over time but it took a while.

Can any fashnonita help me find a dress almost exactly like this if not this one? I'm not an avid clothing shopper and I'm going insane trying to find one like this that's of high quality not Amazon bootleg quality. I'm looking to spend in the $300-600 range preferably but I could go higher for the right one. It doesn't have to be the same color (though I wouldn't mind if it was or even if it had a nice nature-y print on it) but I really want this exact style of dress for my music festival wedding. It looks like it would flatter my body, be easy to not ruin it in a porta potty because I could just take it off, and it has the sort of hippie vibe that I like. Plus it doesn't look so fancy that I would feel the need to baby it all day long while trying to dance and party and I could even wear it again as a duster or something, but I could still dress it up nicely for my wedding pics. Feel free to laugh at my taste because I know this style is out of fashion right now but if anynonny could help me find something like this I would be so grateful! I searched for this image but all I could find was the photographer and model's names, no information about the dress.

Looking for crit on a wardrobe I'm building. I already have some of the shoes, tops, and one of the dresses but most of it I haven't bought yet. I'm aiming for a wardrobe where I can mix and match a lot of different clothes and shoes. I've had a problem my whole life with buying so many non-matching clothes or just items I can only wear in one specific outfit. I split the clothes into neutral lights, darks, and atheliesure/basic girl shit: I hope that reads okay. I'm really new to this and I feel like it needs to be worked on. Any advice is appreciated!

Anyone feel like their fashion choices don't match your facial/body aesthetics? I can't explain it well, but my face is very round and I have big but deep set eyes, kinda like Shelley Duvall and curly short hair. I could almost say I would look good in vintage styled clothes, but what I feel most comfortable in is really baggy black clothes and alt style makeup looks. But my appearance just doesn't work with what I want to go for, instead of that 'sharp' look I want I look awkward, like a deer in headlights. I also like extravagant clothes but I never feel confident enough to pull them off, which I know you'll look like you fit your style if you wear it confidently, I just don't want to look frumpy

>>258415Gosh I was thinking about this the other day when I was wondering why is it that I can't wear shirts with bold, curvy or floral patterns on them (the attention goes immediately to the pattern instead of my face and I sort of…disappear in a way? Idk how much sense does this make). As I thought about this, I got this idea (and sorry if this is obvious kek I was happy with my revelation as a person with zero spatial awareness and no attention to visuals) that if a person's body and face contains a lot of straight lines (straight eyebrows, thin lips, long face, tall, or just thin body), geometrical patterns and stripes look better on them because they match their natural features. And the same goes for the opposite, if a person has a lot of softness and curvy lines in them (big, round eyes, big lips, fleshy body) then they should look good in floral prints. Obviously this is simplified and there are a lot of exceptions but you get the idea. Picrel is a fellow straight liner drowning in a floral shirt. I wonder if there is a subtype of alt style that has 'romantic' elements like lace or puffy sleeves or things like that that would harmonize with the roundness of your features?

>>258415Yeah. I like cutesy clothes and frills but it clashes with my sharp facial features. I feel like I look prettier in sexier clothes so I just try to mix the two. It's hard to find cutesy clothes with sexy silhouettes that doesn't look like gross kink shit so I try to accessorize in a subtly cute way or choose cute or romantic colorways. I don't really care if other people think it suits me, but I do care about what I see in the mirror. No matter how cute something looks on a model, if I wear it and look dumb I just can't enjoy wearing it. I look like a freak in something like picrel for example.

>>258433We sound similar anon, I have defined features more associated with a sexy look and while I haven't minded leaning into that sometimes I just want to look sweet and innocent. I think you can get away with cute clothes if you style yourself elegantly. Either a sleek bun or flowy hair. Makeup can also soften a lot by enlarging eyes, dewy blush, a pouty lip. You obviously won't transform into an uwu j-pop starlet but you'll come across more like a refined princess or mermaid which is still nice. I think Fanny Rosie is a great example, her looks are really not cutesy at all but she's beautiful and her more "womanly" features still work due to styling.

>>258722Not sure how strictly you wanna stick to the labels of emo or lovecore but here are some ideas I had for incorporating lovecore into your wardrobe, esp with an edgier twist. First just add more pink and red even if in the form of smaller accents. Both pair pretty well with black. It's easy to find a striped sweater with those colors. Also maybe opt for a cute heart sweater paired with something edgier like ripped/fishnet tights. I think the key for making this work is the juxtaposition between cutesy elements and edgy ones in the same outfit. Slips, esp with a lace trim, feel very reminiscent of old valentine cards for me and it's easy to find them in red. Red velvet skirts/dresses would also work well with this aesthetic. Heart shaped anything. To keep it simpler, you could just have a basic solid dress or plaid skirt but have heart shaped accessories like a bag or locket. There are also a lot of tights with heart designs. Just some ideas I had, hope this helps

Any way to wear swing dresses (vintage remakes) without it looking like a costume? I barely wear mine and when I do it's with combat boots and a baggy jacket. Thought I still feel (and probably look) like a teenager in that.
No. 259300
>>25923390% of the time the costume look comes down to hair and accessories. Avoid pearls, pin curls and kitten heels and you'll be fine!
You might find it hard to style with flats because of the signature length, which looks awesome with heels but does read vintage. Try taking up the hem to just above the knee and it'll be a much more versatile piece. You don't have to cut it, just tack it with a few stitches and iron flat to see how it looks.
Swing dresses came back in the 70s and 90s so you could draw from both those eras. For 70s picnic vibes you could do sandals, wear your hair down, straw hat, loose crochet cardigan and long beaded necklaces or stacked bangles. Besides your 90s boots and baggy jacket, you could do a fitted sweater that shows the collar and Mary Janes, maybe a burgundy lipstick.

What I don't like is just dressing a certain way because it's trendy at the time and wasting clothing and resources to fit a trend that's over in a couple of weeks and then tossing that clothing for the best and latest. Sustainability in fashion is being thrown out the window when zoomers consoom every new trend that pops up off of tiktok and get a $200 shein wardrobe to match it.

I don't really have experience with proper office wear so apologies for being stupid, but I've been trying to find blouses/buttondowns for a new job and I'm wondering if it's common for all of them to be so insanely boxy and unflattering? I see so many tops like left picrel where the shape is literally a rectangle when I want something like on the right. They make me look like I've gained 40 lbs and have no waist. I've tried tucking them into my pants to essentially cinch them around my body, but if the pants sit on my hips then the shirt remains shapeless. If they're high-waisted then the fabric still sticks out at odd angles and looks sloppy. I'd really prefer not to have to wear bodysuits all the time to look more sleek but is there any other option for me? Should I only be looking for "fitted" blouses? This is ridiculous

I've been wearing babushka scarves pretty much every day (with my bangs and sometimes braided hair out) for the past month and I love it.

Especially when it's just tied in the front and has two Dutch braids plus my big earrings sticking out, call me ratarded but I love it! I have been wearing all black for so long and this helps me look more cheerful also it helps protect my braided hairstyles I sometimes wear so I can wear them multiple days! I can incorporate more colored skirts and general clothing items in my wardrobe too which I have never been able to, it makes it so easy!

>>260118Aritzia is honestly just fast fashion with some nicer designs and a higher markup than somewhere like Zara or Mango. There’s no shame in shopping from there if you like their clothes, but it’s definitely not built to last, and is on par with any other fast fashion brand for the most part.
It might be helpful to learn what good quality clothing looks like in terms of construction (checking the seams and how it’s put together, testing the buttonholes with a gentle tug), which materials are most durable and which ones work for different purposes (a linen sundress vs a crisp cotton Oxford vs a silk camisole top vs a thick heavyweight denim) and go to stores in person to feel the variation in quality with your actual hands.
That makes it easier to shop secondhand or thrift nicer pieces, and vintage or luxury consignment is always an option if you are able to spend more, so that you don’t have to dig through pounds and pounds of cheap polyester garments that will fall apart at the seams in the wash.
It’s easier to find brands you like when you know what decent quality, durable or investment pieces look and feel like, what the composition of materials should be, etc.
If you want to buy secondhand luxury or designer, I would go with Grailed (decent markdowns on less coveted pieces that have been up for a while, some sellers will haggle with you, within reason) or eBay sellers with good feedback who only sell those types of pieces over a greedy and frequently deceptive scalper goblin market like Depop.
Department stores can be a good place to scope out different clothes of varying quality. Their stuff ranges from cheap and poorly made to decent quality with decent construction.
If you are a college student and don’t have a ton of expendable income, well made and versatile basics that can be dressed up or down in different contexts will never steer you wrong. It’s better to get something boring like a cream knit sweater, button up or blouse that can both be worn when going out and in a dressier professional context, and pair of trousers or jeans over something flamboyant that is difficult to wear and plan an outfit around.
A couple of pairs of decent quality shoes in a neutral tone that can pair with anything, and you can cheap out on most accessories.
You don’t have to become a minimalist or build a capsule wardrobe, but people who do live that lifestyle tend to have good pointers on building a simple and interchangeable wardrobe that is a little bit higher quality, and they have their own favourite brands to recommend depending on their personal taste and their use case for their wardrobe.
If you window shop in some department stores or wherever else, you can take lots of fitting room pictures and see which cuts and silhouettes you like best on yourself and your frame, save a little folder on your camera roll so you know what to shop for when you do want to drop the money on something.
Sometimes two pieces of clothing look identical on a mannequin or a shelf and look wildly different on you for reasons you might not pick up on. Drapier tailoring vs darting at the waist, a lower seat on jeans or trousers, different blends of similar materials.

A young professional working an office job, someone who is a bit masculine, or someone who likes luxurious materials and glamorous silhouettes, someone who wants to look normal but put together, with nice details such as good tailoring and a subtle accessory.
Let me know what you like to wear and where/how you will be wearing it, and I’ll drop some recs.

>>260297Haha thank you, it does looks a bit muslim/babushka-y but so long as you leave your hair out I don't think it's too bad. Wearing a somewhat modern outfit with it helps a ton! I usually wear crop tops with high waisted baggy pants and cardigans, chunky boots and a lot of chunky accessories. If your style is a bit more feminine or covered up it can give muslim/babushka vibes. But honestly I think that's a super cute look too, try it nona!

All my clothes are super plain (mostly just the same things in different colors) so I try to dress them up with colorful shoes/jewelry. Can you give me some advice about how to do it better? Like, say with this jeans and top, what kind of accessories would you wear?
My other idea was to wear black flats and dangly earrings instead of a necklace, with my hair up?

>>261204There's a saying "black makes color look cheap, and color makes black look boring" so try stay away from mixing black and color in one look. A pair of brown trousers or mid wash jeans would update your picrel outfit a lot.
If you feel comfy in black, pairing it with white always looks fresh and classy.
As for jewelry, minimalism is really in right now as is layering. Combining dainty pieces like picrel is pretty common.

Sorry for the shitty pic, I can't find any more of this particular style, but how are these types of drawstring supposed to be secured? I've been seeing them lately in athletic wear and I don't understand…

I have a maxi skirt in navy blue, like picrel but with dark green and red stripes throughout (very subtle, it just looks navy blue unless you get very close). I find it very hard to style though because of the color, the only color I can think of that would look good with it is a dull orange but I need dark colors around my face in order to not look like a corpse. I have worn it in the past with black tops/cardigans but I don't think it looks good together, it clashes and not in an interesting way. Suggestions?
No. 261287
>>261283Forgive my autism but why would light colors make you look like a corpse? I think this color would look great with a white blouse, and white usually makes your skin tone look darker and warmer. Even an off-white or light beige if you don't like paper white. I also agree with

I'm going to a family thing, it is a birthday and we're going to a semi-nice restaurant so I'd like to look a bit more modest and put together. I'm thinking a fitted top, long cardigan, nice jewelry/hair and some cleaned, nice looking combat boots are alright but is picrel too casual? Should I go for a midi/maxi skirt instead? Maybe this is a retarded question, they are nice quality pants though (no stretchy jersey material, nice cotton) and don't look old and beat up like most other clothes I own. They're also high waisted and will be very covered by the cardigan so maybe? I usually dress like a slob when going to family things so they're used to it lol, just want to look okay because we're going somewhere nice. these are not the exact pants btw, just something that looks similar

I have broad shoulders and big boobs, but want to achieve a look similar to picrel. What tops could I wear? Large jumpers or oversized shirts make me look obese because they hang off my boobs, but I don't like wearing fitted tops that accentuate them either.

>>261691A few things. Look at the sleeves on tops, is there a seam at the shoulder? That's called a set-in sleeve. This helps to visually minimize the appearance of shoulders and present a more "polished" look. Compare shirt on the left with the one on the right. See how that helps to lean out her frame? Go for that. Don't just go for the huge blousy shirt, go for relaxed shirts that still have some structure to them.

>>261691I question if the chill and comfortable look with loose shirt and skirt can across the same way by larger busted women. It's a common look in Korean fashion I'd think because women on average have smaller busts there. Maybe layering an open longer sweater or shirt of a thicker fabric over a shirt with a neckline, keeping the skirt and boots could work. Also could wear lighter fabric button up with top button or two undone. Higher necklines can make your bust look larger. Try to look at silhouette and if they have darts.

I'm also quite pale, I will turn red and then I will look like I haven't washed myself in weeks.

Surya was a gymnast who switched to skating and she refused to adjust and play by the rules. She got shit because she willingly performed an illegal move and was not a good skater. Good acrobat, perhaps, but not a good (competitive) skater.
Also the "amazing move" can be performed by literally anyone who can do a backflip and skate somewhat OK. The only difference is you just rotate yourself a bit less and land flat, on 1 foot if you can. There's a scrote who learned how to backflip on ice in a day.
That's not to say it's not a cool move, it just doesn't have a place in competitions and not that big of a deal as people make it out to be (probably going by the fact only a handful have done it, which is more due to the rules rather than ability). You can do it on shows to your heart's desire but it has no place in competitions.
+figure skating will always be elegance and skating skill first and athletics second. There's a reason why it's also considered a performing art.
>I wish ice skating stayed a more athletic event, instead of being obsessed with underage girls and forcing them to become anachans who need to retire as soon as they turn 18.kek
>>263616>Iirc, Surya was the only person to ever do this in the Olympics.Because it's an illegal move. She literally only did it because she had no way to win anyways. Competition was too great + she had a injury so her jumps were really bad.

>>263627Anon, I really don't give that much of a fuck about ice skating or
why she did the move. I'm aware that it was illegal, but I still think it was great and that she had to be talented to do it, that's all. I don't think it's that big of a deal.

I really want a long skirt, they’re so comfy and cute, or at least a midi skirt. I would pair it with some sped sandals and a comfy t-shirt, maybe add a sweater.

I think midi skirts are better for travelling though. My skirt today hits my ankles and I have to hold some of it up when walking up/down stairs and dealing with my skirt length + luggage seems like a nightmare. Midi lets me have the length I want but without as much of the nightmare (but I still prefer the look of long skirts over them).

I have literally ZERO clue about fashion. I just want to look like an actual adult, but also not melt in the heat. Yes these are men's clothes, but apparently a men's xxs/xs fits my shoulders perfectly, with the seam actually at the shoulder, instead of a few inches too close to my neck. I'm not going to battle with women's clothes again, when you try a bigger size, the shoulderroom just never seem to get bigger, just the waist and I like big pockets and I cannot lie, you other nonnas can't deny. I'm not looking to be convinced to not wear men's clothes, it doesn't feel assuring, it's just really annoying. I'm just wondering whether this looks absolutely retarded or not. I've mostly been wearing cargo shorts and t-shirts due to the heat, but that made me look a bit too immature.
No. 263736
>>263713Yeah, that particular outfit looks stupid. The colors go together okay-ish, but every single item is at a different level of formality, and it really clashes.
If you like the shirt, wear it with khakis and boat shoes or something. If you like the shorts, wear them with a polo or t shirt and sneakers. If you like the shoes, wear them with long pants. Please.

As a soft summer toned ballet dancer, I really wish all of the gear was muted like tiktok girls seem to think but most of the stuff available at actual dance fashion stores was bright and usually tacky as hell.

It's fine if you want to wear feminine things, amazing if that makes you happy, but it's just not for me. I'm not looking to be convinced to grow my hair out, wear make up and buy ill-fitting clothes from the women's section. The names of these sections aren't laws and or prescriptive, it's not illegal anymore for women to wear men's clothes!>>264361Still better than Honter or teenage boy

No. 264409
>>264407>and since you are a woman the cuts will fit your body better most of the timeMost clothes at the women's section are made for women with tiny shoulders, who have at least some boobs and hips, not inverted triangle. When you go a size up, only the waist gets bigger and the garment gets longer, the shoulderroom never gets bigger. How often do I have to explain that? You can suggest different masculine aesthetics, I'm just not interested in feminine aesthetics, because that is what has been pushed onto me all my life and I've been beaten for not wanting to conform. Why do I need to explore something which is already being forced on all of us through female socialization? If I want to hear this bullshit, I can just go back to conversion therapy. I'm sick and tired of this pressure to "do both", because wanting to be exclusively gnc or masculine is just sooo taboo. I don't feel comfortable in feminine shit, it makes me look like an AGP. I don't fucking care that there is oversized crap at the women's section nowadays, when the shoulders still have no fucking room and oversized shit just makes me look like a teenage boy. When I buy men's shirts in size XXS-S, the seam actually hits the end of my shoulder without being oversized, instead of being bunched up halfway to my neck, strangling my upperback and being a tent around the waist. Call shit ugly all you want, but why the fuck do the suggestions always have to be "please perform femininity for me, please get back into the box of acceptable amounts of androgyny, please do both!".

I can't help it that somewhere between the 80's and the 2010's the industry decided that women cannot have broad shoulders.

>>264497I never even mentioned height as a problem? Most women in my area are around 6 foot tall and I'm short in comparison, so that's not the issue. I just have a ridiculously big ribcage and very wide shoulders, I measured, I know it's fucked and out of range of what is normal for women. /fit/ would be jealous of my frame. I've decided to embrace it and started lifting, but that also means everything has gotten even broader. Since when does off-the-rack women's clothes take into account whether someone is a powerlifter or bodybuilder? There's a reason a lot of female bodybuilders and powerlifters who have no problem being feminine just live in stretchy bodycon stuff, the rest just doesn't fit.
>>264502The shirts generally have a feminine collar, are thinner fabric (requiring you to wear a bra or pasties at least), the formal shirts don't fit my shoulders, arms and upperback and swim at my waist, I got a faux leather jacket from the women's section which doesn't fit my shoulders and strangles my upperback but fans out at my nonexistent hips, it looks comical. I don't like to wear the oversized trend either, because that makes me look like a teenage boy, I want to wear things that actually fit well. Why is it so difficult to understand, that things have to fit right at the shoulders? The seam has to hit the end of the shoulder, otherwise everything looks bunched up. Women's clothes is shaped like a trapezoid. If you go a size up, only the waist and length gets bigger, shoulderroom stays tiny.
>You don't look like a man no matter what you wear.Nice that you and other RFs have that opinion, problem is that when I had longer hair and tried to fit in a woman's blazer and shirt, I was asked at work whether I'm an AGP a couple years ago. The ill fitting clothes, in combination with my features, makes people think they are "clocking" me. I've heard enough of it since puberty (people would constantly ask me whether I'm intersex) and I really don't want to deal with it, especially not in this climate. Women's clothes also have fake pockets, shallow pockets, no inside pockets, worse thinner fabric for a higher price etc. I swear you can go to the men's section and the women's section at the same shop and you will notice that either the men's is cheaper or will be higher quality at the same price. Short fashion cycles are created by retailers to drive purchasing of cheaper, shoddier clothes for high price. Maybe some women are amenable to this because they enjoy adopting new looks rapidly, but it completely swamps out availability for quality clothing at a fair price for the not insignificant number of women who want quality staples. I don't want to run around like a headless chicken or spend extra just to find something good at the women's section, when I can just go to the men's, since I'm privileged to be flat and have straight hips so I can fit. Even women's workwear (for manual labor) has this problem, you wear it for safety, but as soon as you get the women's version it's suddenly a worse quality and not as durable. The differences are so vast, that you really cannot convince me, unless it's the women's section at a secondhandshop, because the 80's knew that women with broad shoulders exist and vintage clothes have better quality than whatever you can get new at the women's section for a fair price.

>>267426Why, are you a scrote? It looks like it's solely targeting coomers or trying to groom women into becoming the next OnlyFans cow. Picrel literally looks like a still from a porno. I agree the old photos were bad but it's not hard to create images that are sexy but in a more fun, fresh way that appeals to women instead of looking so greasy. Even Victoria's Secret is nowhere near as porny as this. Reminds me of how American Apparel used to be with its nasty pedo owner and photographers

>>267162Thrift, thrift and thrift. Are you in the US? I've gotten to the point where 95% of my clothing is thrifted, with the other 5% being basics/shoes I've owned for years. I think it's good to learn how to op shop. It's good to know exactly what you're looking for when going in.
I usually have a couple pieces in mind that I always want to add to my wardrobe, and whenever I go to op shops I look out for them. Have an idea of what colors you like to wear, what shapes work for you. I say colors because a lot of op shops here will organise by them, so you can gravitate towards sections that appeal to you.
And if you're thrifting, make a trip of it! It's going to take a while to comb through everything a store has to offer, it's not nicely arranged like regular stores. Get a coffee, spend a few hours on a day off plucking things from the rack. If you have a Savers in the US I'd definitely go there. They aren't a charity shop per se, they're for profit but do take second hand clothing and sell it pretty cheap.
I've managed to build a whole wardrobe from all sorts of second hand stores and vintage shops by first looking on pinterest to see the styles I'm after, then going out with that in mind.
Oh and lastly, always look at the fabric tag of what you're about to buy. I do this to avoid too much polyester in my wardrobe, opting for natural fabrics like cotton/linen. It also gives you an idea of if the piece needs extra care and could possibly be a hassle to look after down the road.

Im convinced department stores are a psycop to get women to buy ugly clothes. Everytime I go to a store like Dillard's, JCPenney, stage etc the women's section is full of literally the most unflattering shit possible. Bright, hideously colored shirts with terrible material in unflattering cuts that make you look bulky and short, pants/shorts in unflattering cuts that will make any sort of ass you have look flat, bright and hideous pastels which look like shit unless that's specifically your color season. Even the underwear/pajamas is evolving to exclusively shapeless old lady stuff and bras are becoming flimsy and unflattering. Skirts are shapeless and boxy, dresses are the same way.
Of course the juniors department is better but I want to wear women's clothes not just jean shorts and cheesy crop tops every day. It almost feels unfair since while men's fashion has changed, you can easily go into the men's department and find multiple timeless, figure flattering pieces that you can find in colors flattering for all color palettes
>Inb4 but you can find some good stuff
I'm not saying it's all terrible but if you go into these shops I vaguely remember easily being able to pick out multiple flattering pieces, now it feels like a weird hunt for a flattering piece
>But these stores are shit anyway just shop here
Yeah you're probably right, but I can't say I don't miss the fact that shopping for new clothes in department stores use to be fun, now if you're lucky there's only 3-4 women's clothing stores at the mall that actually have flattering things for women who don't dress like strippers or old ladies eating at cracker barrel after church
No. 267481
>>267468agree. frankly, i stopped giving a shit about the "fast fashion is so bad" thing i hear all the time. sorry but i'm not going to dress like shit in the hopes that i save the world from unfair and
abusive business practices, it's just the truth. it's like getting an ego about recycling when that doesn't do shit either. i am constantly disappointed when i go to a department store; thrift stores can sometimes be better but it can also be a huge waste of time.

Otherwise get on eBay/Etsy and search for any combination of 60s 70s hippie soutache embroidered velvet vest. They were very popular like other anon said so are relatively easy to find. Expect to pay around $75-200 USD depending on how intricate it is.

No. 270269
>>270162It would be helpful to know the general dress code around your office or workplace. Or the basic industry you are in.
A blazer and decent pair of trousers can do a lot as far as looking authoritative. Wide-legged trousers are on trend right now, so you wouldn't look like you're wearing your mom's clothes.
I used to be weirdly averse to wearing jewelry (probably because my mom wore a lot and it looked bad imho). But now I see how a simple necklace or small pair of earrings can help an outfit look dressier in a subtle way. I don't worry about getting anything expensive - people who care about that aren't worth my time or energy. I pick inexpensive things that somehow add a little bit to my outfit: a delicate chain with a small, interesting pendant; a small pair of sakura earrings; a choker with deep red stones for a dress I wear in the evenings sometimes. You don't need much. If you are torn between spending on clothes/shoes or jewelry, spend on clothes/shoes. Those are far more important.

Any advice on a good quality but affordable a-line petticoat? All the affordable ones I find are just meant for costumes or parties, made of that scratchy tule.

Pants are not so kind, but I think picrel is something you could do and look well put together and not frumpy. I personally would go for a more tailored look, with a lot of straight lines to balance out the round shapes that fat creates. When going for blazers, coats, jackets etc go for longer ones, short jackets will make you look stumpier. Wearing sleeves that goes to your elbows will also elongate your figure, that's why picrel and

Hello nonnas, I need some fashion advice. I have a beach wedding to attend in a few weeks with a casual theme and I'm completely stumped on what to wear. I'm very short at 5'0 and stumpy, obese but not deathfat, and my fat distribution is android. Pic related on the left is very close to what my body looks like if you add the boobs and midsection of the right. I want to blend into the background as much as possible and avoid looking stupid. I know to avoid dresses since they're guaranteed to look bad and I'm hesitant on maxi skirts because of my height but I'm not sure. I was thinking of going for a dress shirt and trousers, but I'm worried that'll Gru-ify me or make me look like a barbecue dad. I doubt there's any way to make myself look good, but methods on looking decent and hiding my body type would be appreciated.

>>272305Usually apple shapes have relatively slim arms + lower legs, so maybe a midi dress that’s floaty and loose through most of the body or a trapeze dress? If you’re worried about looking like you’re wearing a potato sack, make sure the dress comes in a bit at your narrowest point (probably over/underbust based on your description). Avoid super heavy or drapey fabrics imo.

So, I’m trying to be more “on trend” in my late 20s because I don’t want to look like a granny yet, but gen z is bringing back these fashion trends that look like shit on my body (imo.) I went to a festival this past weekend and EVERY younger girl I saw was wearing extremely wide leg pants and a crop top. They looked good and proportionate. I’m flat chested and thin, but pear shaped, so I have a lot of fat in my butt and thighs. I tried to draw on a model what this fashion looks like on me, but it’s not ugly enough because I’m also short, so my legs also look shorter in these pants. What kind of trendy shit can I wear to look up-to-date without looking so bottom heavy and chub? I’m very obviously not overweight, but pants like this make my legs look like I have fucking elephantiasis or something.

Anons, what kinda fashion do you like i a guy? I realized I know what I like face-wise in a man, but I have no idea about their fashion. If I'm being honest, I don't even have a real idea how men dress in day-to-day life, because I always ignore their existence in public. If I think of "man", I think of a solid colored t-shirt and cargo pants, and all I know is that I don't like this combo.

>>273664First, a flattering fit. Depends on the build of course. But they should be able to pick clothes that are tailored for their type. Too many don't even consider this. But it's crucial for looking good.
Second, I like men who know how to accessorize. A nice belt, a fancy watch, male jewellery like leather bracelets etc. It just gives that extra oompf.

I just bought myself this nice pair of black trousers that don't show the panty line
too much so I don't have to specifically buy no show panties to wear them (I'll still need to wear my boyshorts though, fucking hell). Now I just need to buy a couple of pairs of shoes to wear this with.
Finding cheap women's trousers with thicker fabric and/or that aren't too skinny/tight at my local stores is so fucking hard, that's why I don't even bother shopping for clothes unless it's absolutely necessary. But I would love to have more formal clothes, or stuff that I can wear when going out that aren't just boring t-shirts, polo shirts, blouses and jeans, or knee-length skirts
because I don't shave my legs and I've got a lot of scars on them so they looks hideous At this point I'm
seriously considering buying men's clothes, if what
>>264511 said is true about prices and quality, but today I only found some shorts that were small enough for me and that was it, and I live in a place where men are below average in terms of height. If I don't find men's clothes that fit me I might just learn to make my own kek
Anyway I didn't realize that these pants don't have actual pockets until now. Is it too hard to fix that by oneself? Because I've got a bunch of shorts and pants with fake pockets that I've been wanting to fix for years, too. I suppose I'd have to go to the sewing thread for advice on that.

If you wear a blouse underneath, there are traditional blouses to choose from (something like that

I'm going to college in a month but I'm worrying about my outfits the first week already (I know that's not the important part but I'm sick of being the bullied kid, I'm there to learn in the first place but I hope to make some friends). I'm thinking wearing what I usually wear (baggy pants and fitted top) minus the overload of accessories I usually wear. I don't want to stand out in a bad way but I'm scared of being made fun of again for my style, I want to look approachable but still like myself. Anything else you anons recommend? I'm trying to minimize accessories, wear more color and not do any 'out there' hairstyles.
I usually wear baggy fabric pants, harem pants or a maxi/midi skirt with a tight top, a long cardigan and 5 million accessories like necklaces and scarves. Think mori kei. I love how it looks but I want to look somewhat normal since it's not art related at all. And yes I know I will look nice for the first two weeks and then wear the same outfit anytime I go there lol, but first impressions you know>>276187Thank you, I'm half German but don't live there (sadly). I'm thinking if I would wear the dress with some more modern accessories like belts and earrings it could be kind of cool for special occasions. I don't want to look super touristy so making it my own (perhaps wearing skirts under/over it) might do the trick. I will think about it for a little longer. I think old jewelry is so beautiful but I feel like I would look a bit weird and out of place on me. I'm used to dressing a bit unusual but the amount of stares would make me uncomfortable kek. Thank you for the tips, I think I will buy it (it's not very expensive) but add some modern accessories to it to make me look a bit more casual so I can wear it outside lol. I love the silhouette of dirndls, the vest part especially is so cute!
No. 276437
>>276384Hi, I live in Europe. I'd suggest leaving the dress/vest of the dirndl alone (don't put skirts over it). Instead play with the shirt you wear underneath it, and tights (if it's cold). If you want to make it your own, consider what shoes to wear with it. It really depends on your style, but I could see this working in a variety of ways. One would be to wear some combat boots and funk up the rest of the outfit to contrast with the traditional look of the dirndl.
I'm not Bavarian or Austrian, but I got a dirndl as a kind of souvenir from my time spent there. I got a pretty one and wear it to uh…Kirtage… like little festivals for churches and stuff in Austria/Germany? You drink outside, it's basically an excuse for drinking outside and playing bad music. We got a lot of those. Dirndl is always ok for that, doesn't have to be Oktoberfest.
btw the shirt pictured with this one is very very modest. I don't show cleavage in my dirndl but probably 80% women do, including old women

>>276384double post but you can search for modern interpretations of dirndls, it's popular to play around with the style, and women can also have fun with lederhosen if that's interesting to you. Just don't fall into some weird right-wing shit like Gabalier (Austrian "folk rocker" who is like a demigod for extreme right-wing voters).
Krüger is an example of a modern dirndl company and you can see how they have traditional styling but also mixing in some other influences
https://www.krueger-dirndl.de/en/women/clothes/dirndlLimberry is traditional but also trying to update styling (look at the difference the shirt and shoes make):
https://www.limberry.de/ esp Cocovero brand
If you want to show cleavage, there are special dirndl bras for this. The shirt underneath is called a Dirndlbluse. There are special ones designed for wearing under the dress but you can also use cropped stuff. traditionally, a dirndl is laced or tied tightly around the waist and fine dirndls have corset-like support there (but of course anything modern will be pretty comfortable, just don't fear tying it tight if you want to)

>>275858>>276384Anon, this might be a bit unpopular, but I think you should be able to wear it everywhere: grocery shopping, park lounging, and and afternoon strolling. I don't think it looks that strange. I think your picrel might difficult to style because it doesn't look that versatile
and it looks like a wannabe dirndl, which is why it might come off as "meh" costumey and not "wow" costumey. Personally, I love, love, love costumey, retarded clothes, and I think you should wear this everywhere now more than ever because of how visually boring everything is. I'm not Euro so maybe there's some kind of local nuanced cultural LARPiness you're conscious of, but even then. Who cares. If it suits you you shoulder wear it.
Lena Hoschek's work has a lot of dirndls, and it's very beautiful and looks suitable for wear everywhere. It's high fashion so it's very expensive, but it's good inspo and it should give you an idea of how to wear one.

I didn't want someone else to reverse image search and buy it lol it's why I didn't post pictures. Little house on the prairie blouses are a really common thing in fast fashion stores here actually so if I'm bored with the one that comes with it.

>>276452The one I have is actually way more subdued, see picrel lol. I think with a jacket over it it wouldn't look that weird, I have a hat with flowers on it so maybe it could make for a cute summer outfit! And in my town, it's pretty much a boring city so it takes kind of a lot to get looked at lol. I don't need to look like a normie in my everyday life, I just want to not look like I escaped a mental asylum kek.
I still have no idea if I should get it but I'm on the edge, thanks to everyone who replied ♥

>>276458I've lived in Bavaria for years and was also in Salzburg and Vienna for some time, you see women in a Dirndl all the time, not only around September/October. You also see guys in Lederhosen many days of the year. Especially young people don't want to wear their traditional costumes only on one occasion, most quality Dirndls are way to expensive to hang in the closet nearly every day of the year.
>>276466maybe a nice belt instead of an apron, a leather jacket and yes, combat boots. If you choose accessories that aren't made of grey felt or with big hearts, flowers and stuff like picrel, you won't look out of place. Buy it, if you like it, the fabric is nice, the sewing quality is fine and it's cheap, go for it, you can always sell it again if you don't find a way to make it feel comfortable for you.

Maybe this will sound retarded but if you have a big, full maxi skirt and a fancy blouse would you need a belt with it? The skirt is a lot less fancy than the blouse (got it from my grandmother, don't know how old it is but it's beautiful and has some frills), the skirt has a kind of cheap looking gathered waistband which I don't think suits it very much. It looks much like picrel except fuller. I don't think it would look 'finished' without some kind of waist accessory but maybe that's in my head. Thoughts? I hate wearing belts around my waist because it's uncomfortable, it's why I'm making a big deal out of it kek

>>276961Most likely yes; the blouse will probably get untucked at some point and make you look like a box, and most bodytypes need some sort of waist definition with big, flouncy outfits like that. If you want inspo, look up traditional peasantwear for women (picrel is from Hungary). Historically, big fancy blouse + long skirt combos either cropped the top high at the waist, had a similarly cropped vest/bodice over top, had an apron tied at the waist, or a belt/sash to give more definition.

>>276961It really depends on what the blouse is like and where the skirt sits. These kind of skirts were popular on tiktok for a bit, just search pinterest for tiered skirt outfits. Pic rel is a preppy example, but there are plenty of boho fits if that is more your vibe.

I'm looking for my ideal trousers: tapered, high waisted, wide waistband, pleated at the hips but narrow along the legs. Not too form fitting along the belly so there should be a little room with the pleats. Like pic related but I'd prefer a nice button fastening instead of that bow. And breathable material like wool or cotton, not polyester. I've been googling around and looking in shops for months to no avail. One day I will find you, perfect pants

nonnies, what’s the verdict on graphic skirts? a couple different skirts from this seller have really piqued my interest, but i have no idea how id style them. what would you wear with it? would you throw it out altogether?
No. 278330
What makes an outfit overdressed? I wear flowy skirts with graphic tops and sometimes flowy tops (long cardigans if it's cold), people say It's too much but to me it's just showing I put effort in. Maybe it's just not trendy enough to be considered cute instead of overdressed.
>>278326I think this one in particular looks kind of cheap (as in material) but I think skirt of thicker fabrics with embroidery/appliques are super cute. Don't make the mistake of having it as a 'center piece' though (aka wearing the one skirt with boring clothes of the same shade). It depends on what style you're going for but I'd say in general, try to find a top in a color that matches (or has a print/details) the skirt. If you can't, colorful accessories like necklaces, bags and belts can do wonders too. If you just want a simple, cute outfit tie up a graphic tee and wear it with some combat boots, nice purse and a cute hairdo. I don't particularly like this on it's own but if you style it the right way it can definitely look cute! You just have to have some confidence in yourself, it will look cool if you just stand up straight I'm sure it'll look nice.

If anything it's teens that shouldn't be wearing "cute" things considering how often that involves oversexed clothing. But you can probably see how that's very convenient for a certain group of people and why this "age limit" on clothing is pushed.
If you want to dress like a normie because you lost interest or you can no longer be arsed because you're busy or whatever that's totally fine. But being 28 or 32 or whatever is the perfect time to wear cute styles or alt shit or whatever because you're a young and adult woman.

>>280788I have pale skin and a yellow undertone too! I usually stick to warmer "autumn" colors(browns, reds, some shades of orange, darker and muted colors; no super bright neon colors or pastels though or pastels only if they're muted) because they compliment both my hair and my skin and don't make me look sickly pale since my hair is so dark. It's like it enhances the warmth in my skin despite the paleness. Blue usually looks weird on me, I guess it's too cool for my undertone. The only shade of blue that I can wear is like a darker muted teal (like in picrel).

I'm starting law school in the fall and I really want some more professional, nice looking clothes that also aren't hideously ugly or basic. I buy basically everything from thrift stores so right now my wardrobe is mostly old sweaters and weird t-shirts. I think it's cute but I want to look older and more professional.

You can totally overhaul your warderobe but don't think you need to convince your fellow students of your professionalism while you're still in school.
Anyway most of the clothes pictured are basic items, certaintly the tops, you should be able to find them at local stores. Make a list of what you need, for example 3 bottoms, 6 tops/blouses and 1 coat in neutral colours that can all be mixed and matched with each other and go shopping with that list. It's good to have a plan when you're completely changing to a new style all at once.

But among friends in my free time just hanging out or when I'm just chilling at home, I do like to wear short summerdresses.
I love how short dresses and skirts look but wearing them always means sacrificing a degree of my comfort and freedom of movement. It's funny though because I went through a phase of the exact opposite where I felt like I was an ugly troll if I wasn't wearing ultra girly skirts and dresses. They basically served as a self assurance that I was pretty and good enough. No jeans for me back then.

but im finding some bad reviews online that the stitching isnt good, or that the boots have other problems. is this a common problem or am i overthinking it?

>>283130Go up a size, their lasts are narrow. If they end up being a bit big you can wear thicker sock. Always go up a size with shoes, it's a lot easier to make them fit better.
I've heard they have qc issues here and there, but I wouldn't worry too much. Their customer service is great and I have seen people return boots easily even after months of wear. I don't think you can find better quality in that price range. If you have $$$ to drop get something else but otherwise I think they're solid.

>>282374Before you buy t-shirts, hold them up to the light and stick your hand in. If you can see your hand, the shirt will show your bra when you wear it.
Otherwise, Uniqlo has the best bras and undershirts if you’re worried about showing through shirts. Terrible selection for big boobs though.
>>282477Why not just go with actual vintage? If you like simple/basic pieces like your pic you can find high quality versions on eBay and Etsy. For example with that skirt I’d search “black straight midi wool/silk” and maybe add on a decade or brand (I like vintage brooks brothers a lot). Just use Pinterest or whatever for inspiration.

>>283135>If they end up being a bit big you can wear thicker sock. Always go up a size with shoes, it's a lot easier to make them fit better.Nta but I'm gonna have to disagree with this. If the size discrepancy is no more than a few centimeters, the leather will stretch with wear or anon can do a few things to stretch them out a bit. I've spent too long wearing shoes that are a half size too big, it's annoying and affects your gait and the proportions are off. I highly suggest measuring your feet on a piece of paper (make a hoeizontal line at the heel and a line at the big toe and measure the length, you can look up instructions) and compare to size charts if that info is available.

>>283283Ayrt, I think the bunching is inevitable. Possibly lacing them tighter at the ankle might reduce the bunching but that is the nature of leather boots. Fwiw I think it looks good when leather ages and bunches up and softens. I think they are not sitting flush with the skin in a lot of pics because the boots are not worn in yet. I did notice that Doc Martens specifically made for women have a narrower ankle (top left men's boot, top right women's), that might help negate bunching. I also read that the Pascal leather Doc Martens have a more pliable leather (picrel top right - style 1B99). You can try looking for boots of a different brand with a thinner leather if the thickness of the leather (not sitting flush with the skin) bothers you. The brown boots in picrel are an example (Vintage Foundry Co. Women's Sadelle Boot).

Hi nonnas, I am looking for a specific brand of sweaters/knitwear that sells something like pic rel.

>>284739Oh, I can go either way. Putting both in one outfit might be a bit too complex for my brain. Right now I'm operating on the level of "ok the silhouette looks good, the colors complement one another and don't wash out my skin, these two pieces are harmonious".
Also, as for the model body type…it's more that my ribcage, especially the upper part, bulges out. From the side, it looks like my upper half is obese/chunky especially if I wear certain clothes. My body fat % is low. I've seen people roasting mtfs with similar body types here so I don't think I'm imagining things. Granted, I do have very nice, feminine long arms, hands, skin, etc., so it isn't terrible.
Also yeah I noticed those pieces in a thrift store before–aside from the boots, which are very specific. The other things are very basic and can be found easily.

>>284754Ebay; filter for "condition: pre-owned," & sort the results by "lowest price + shipping." If you like oversized t-shirts they're even cheaper to procure. On the down side, sellers are privy to the popularity of vintage tees so a lot of the cool shit like band shirts, movie shirts can run hundreds of dollars. I would avoid usi g the term "vintage" in the search query for that reason but YMMV. If you are good with random shit though the prices are pretty good. Bottom picrel is an example. Good luck

Tips or resources for dressing when you're tall, but have sorta wide hips? Like specific clothing pieces, silhouettes, etc? I'm very insecure about my hips, they're not wider than my shoulders actually so maybe it's my overall size/shape I need to work with accepting and dressing. I'm not overweight so I suspect unfortunately my natural bone structure is like this. I'm so jealous of the tall girls whose size is the same as short girls (same waist and hip measurements, very thin silhouette) but that's not me, so I struggle a lot dressing myself trying to not seem gargantuan. Should I be in the body dysmorphia thread instead lol, feels like part of this is struggling to accept having a feminine figure

They are a little expensive but good quality and maintain a classic 'art - gallery' semi-stylish curator look.
