I was browsing Evans online today and I am totally falling in love with their Beth Ditto collections, you got to check it out!

^^^^Girl me too!!!!

I work by the Marble Arch Evans store and snuck out of work today after breakfast to go wait in line for the store to open at 9am. Since i was there so early, I got a free bag from the collection (the one with the lips that is worth 25pds) AND a free checkered scarf!!!

anywhos, on to the purchases
I dont ever buy things in the UK because they are very expensive with the exchange rate, but the rule I hold to is that if its not available in the US and I really like it, then I can buy it.

So i got the dress in picture 2 with the belt and the dress in picture 3. I tried on the checkered dress in pic 1 but it is just way to huggy on my body and i'd have to walk around sucking it in all day lol

Some of the tops were way cute but just too baggy and made me look bigger than I am.
overall, I am pleased with my purchases! especially because I would never be able to find something like this in the US.

Ladies, I need your opinions please?
Would a chanel flap bag (jumbo or medium) look weird on a plus size?
I love carrying my classic vintage chanel flap but sometime I think I am too large for such a bag, any opinions?

If you do own a chanel flap, would you please post a picture? :)

You are soo lucky!
I've heard that Ditto is designing for Evans but I didn't know when it will ever be released. You are really lucky to get there first, The domino dress I like but guess you are right, I don't have the patience to suck it in all day lol

I don't think so! I bet somebody in the chanel forum has pics though. I thought I was the only plus size girl here when I asked in the RM forum (before I saw this thread) about a MAB and lots of ladies had input!

Thank you hun for your reply..
I looked through chanel forum, but I didn't find a lot of plus size members there lol that why I had a little doubt about it, I am ordering a chanel stud flap bag and having a doubt about it, though I have tried it while I was in Bangkok and liked the shape of it on me, but not sure why I have a second thought considering I am a busty woman. I might as well ask around there :)

Well hello there

Yes, I do own a jumbo caviar flap in gold hardware. It doesn't look weird at all and I think it's the perfect size for me. I love it! I think you should go for it and def rock it out!!!
