In The Thick Of It
Queer fat femme. Fat fashion bargain hunting. Living in Chicago.
Today ASOS Curve is asking what plus size fashion blogs you read. Don’t forget to include InTheThickofIt when telling them your favorites!
Items I am thinking of for summer. Lace mixed with florals. More of the geometric prints I liked this spring. Dainty cute belts (I was so happy to discover REAL LEATHER belts at nordstrom yesterday). Crochet/woven bags. Oversized cropped tops.
This does not address shoes, but that’s a whole other post.

So I finally received the Asos curve ruched jacket. I’m not blown away by it - i think it’s too big. I just don’t know. Maybe i need to work on styling it a bit - this is it basically thrown on with clothes i was wearing. What do you think?

I’ve just received my latest order from ASOS Curve in the mail - It was kind of a gamble buying this huge jersey dress. It’s kind of too big, but I’m going to belt it and love it forever!
Dress: ASOS Curve
Belt: Addition-Elle
Tights: Marks Workwearhouse
I’ve been debating buying this dress. I wish it were in black - I want an oversized black number so badly.

I don’t have opportunity to dress up very often - but I really like styling evening outfits. Here is one I’ve called “First Lady” - slightly inspired by Michelle Obama’s style, but it includes pieces available in plus sizes.

I finally received this Gaga-rific top from Asos (curve) yesterday. It is SO amazing. The sleeves are stiffened with boning and make me feel powerful. I cannot wait to wear this out and about.

i think simple narrow bottom half with a really great statement shoe is the way to go

I got this BIG, it was hugging her hips so I ordered a size up, would have gone two sizes but the second one was sold out, didn’t want to…
Well i’ve wanted that ASOS top for ages and it was only $16 so I just bought it! I can’t wait to wear it.
