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

i really don't think that's a very good idea unless someone specifically asks for help.

Great outfits ladies.

[Samia]

I am open to comments. But I think just stick to me, this is a friendly thread and we would like to keep it that why.I am confident about myself and if I have made mistakes I would like them pointed out, and i do make loads. But please don't be rude for this threads sake.

Question, are you a plus size too?

[SOLIDGOLD2]

Oh of course posters should be nice when posting help if someone asks

im a size 9-10 so yes i think im a plus size

I just thought it might be helpful. When i look at old pictures i think to myself...omg i can't believe i went out looking like that....why didn't anyone tell me something...lol i think i still have those days

^^ please go ahead and give me your opinion, I would like to know my mistakes, I need to figure out my US size, what would it be for UK size 14?

[galligator]

American : British
2 : 6
4 : 8
6 : 10
8 : 12
10 : 14
12 : 16
14 : 18

(From a quick internet search)



Also, US S-M-L generally cover*:
XS = 2-4
S = 6-8
M = 8-10
L = 12-14
XL, XXL/1X, 2X etc start to vary by brand

*Does. of course, vary by brand & cost, designer/non-designer.
If I were a US 6, I would be asking 'Please sir, could I have some more?' All bones.

[Samia]

^^ Thanks for the size conversion!

Come on gals let see some more pics!

This might be a little bit of a fashion crime outfit. But it's finally SPRING! Last week it was just above freezing. I'm not usually a leggings with sundress type - But its 71 degrees with 30 mph gusts blowing my skirt *everywhere but down* & I simply had to submit to the whims of the gods of modesty.
Anyway, an olive green batik dress with dragonfly pattern with bronze tone watch & jewelry. I wasn't sure about the wedges, but I figured my skechers would be worse

Probably gonna wind up in jeans & T's much of the rest of the week. T-ball's starting for my girls & thats all about casual walking comfort to me.

galligator - i adore that dress. As for the leggings, you gotta do what you gotta do :)

Blue Camisole with Beige Lace - Peacocks Gold Top- Peacocks Jeans- Marks & Spencers Pearl Necklace- Yargici (Turkish Brand) Bag-RM Night Blue MAM Shoes- No brand from Turkey All the above except the Orange top from Mango and A no name Charm Barcelet Same Jeans as above Brown Velvet Jacket- Yargici Bag- Linea Pelle Shoes- Gold Aldo Ballet Flats

I love your bag!!!! I don't know that much about Rebecca Minkoff, could you please tell me what style your bag is. I see you put down Mam but is that the real name or is it abbreviated for the real name. Thanks for any info you can give me.

9-10 is NOT plus size a 14 up is plus size. I used to work in a plus size store and sizes 12 and under would come in and look around and ask why don't you carry our size we would say to them sorry but your not plus size they always looked relieved. Before anyone goes to ask YES I am plus sized. I will post pics later of cute outfits.
