Plus Size Vintage

[Miss Dottie]

I just got these pant's from Roaman's, in chocolate, dark green and navy.

I love the wide leg cut, but I'm not sure what to wear on top, maybe a beaded cardigan or twin set? For now, I just wear a white blouse with a scarf.

I'm going to buy the black and brown pair. They are so cute!

There are some great links on this page, thanks for sharing. This site has some cute things for good prices:

I just ordered this top from them:

I think I might wear it with a pencil skirt and a matching belt.

Thanks. They have another cute leopard shirt with ties on it that I'm thinking about getting, but first I want to see what the quality of their clothing is like.

I'm a sucker for anything with a puff sleeve and ties on it. I have a red pencil skirt and a pair of hunter green wide-legged trousers that I think I'll wear the gray shirt with. I've been buying a lot of gray lately instead of black, I'm starting to get tired of wearing black all the time.

I just stumbled upon this when working on a USO uniform. Someone may have already posted it:

Those are really cute but I want something in denim that has the big buttons nearer the sides. I don't know what they're called though to be able to look for them.
Anyone have any ideas? I know you all know what I'm talking about.

Crop jeans with turn-ups

For those of us UK girls I'm afraid. Great Universal catalogue have got some turn up cropped jeans in different colours including white and indigo dark denim for £20 between sizes UK 8-24. They also do some nice espradrille shoes too.

Interesting article

Hello ladies! I was reading this thread and it reminded me of an article I found on plus size clothing. The article is from Vogue magazine via another webiste circa June 15, 1936. Thought you might enjoy reading it. It won't let me post it on here, but the webiste is miss-vintage.com in the 1930's general section. The whole site is great. Hope someone might enjoy it.
