Thanks! I hunt for belts in my size too. I just picked a pretty one with a butterfly buckle at Riverisland today.I also have a few from the site below, but I did not bring them along with me

I love this dress and you have a great body shape too!

Has anyone tried this website
http://myshape.com/
They have a very limited selection though, but some Micheal by Micheal Kors stuff is nice!
You can put in your measurements and the will automatically selesct outfits for you depending on the measurements and body shape. I just created an account got some good ideas from them.

Samia - Thanks for the recommendation on the site, I am checking it out right now. As for my body shape, I think it's the dress. It's deceptive

SOLIDGOLD2 · Apr 27th, 2008, 04:15 PM

would it be ok to help posters with the outfits they post???
i see some pics that in reality are not flattering for a full figures

I know sometimes it hard to see what we are doing wrong and maybe pointing out what doesn't work in a outfit can help

if you guys agree should someone say comments are welcomed?

I wouldn't want to point out a outfit if a poster doesn't want to

It should be okay if someone adds "comments are welcome" to their posts. I hope this is a friendly thread. I know for me, I am in need of help! I will post more pics this week when I am not looking like a bum studying for finals :)

Love,

Okay, don't think this turned out great, but my camera batteries died immediately after getting this 1 shot - so now I have batteries & can post, but hope the details aren't to hard to see.

(Another) Tripp NYC lace back top. Indian patchwork/crochet insert deep blue circle skirt. Small XOXO shouder bag. Carlos by Carlos Santana sandals & Harajuku Lovers Double wrap Music watch dark blue leather as choker.

Got a compliment on the shoes heading back to my car from the mall

Starresky · Apr 28th, 2008, 01:25 AM

galligator - very cute outfit. Love the skirt!
