Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ July 11, 2022

ANNNNNND I’m back. AGAIN. Last week I was on vacation and I literally wore two things: 1) my nightgown and 2) a nightgown dress with a unbuttoned button-down. It was a delightful week of lovely, lovely nothingness. One evening early on (I love when vacations are long enough that you can say

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 30, 2022

And today, after staying up til almost 3am watching shows, I jumped up before the alarm even went off! I’d left my Korean homework stuff at work yesterday so I wanted to go in a little early to get it done before I punched in at 8:00. It’s such a joy to

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 29, 2022

Ahh, a swishy dress and sleekish hair, whatta time to be alive! After almost a year without, I FINALLY splurged and replaced my old curling iron that threatened to burn the house down every time I plugged it in (so, yes, I stopped using it. as is evidenced by The Year of

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 28, 2022

Lately, my phone alarm going off in the morning means “hit snooze,” not “GET UP.” I mean, I know we all hit snooze over and over and over again (don’t we??), but I no longer think, “oh, alarm, I guess I should get up, no, I think I’ll hit snooze and lay

Plus Size Outfit of the Day: June 27, 2022

So. Back to wearing clothes and sharing them with y’all. What a weird thing to do, ha ha. At work today but the school program is closed the next two weeks so there’s just a handful of people in the building. and OH! You are looking at the proud recipient of a

Week(ish) In Review: The One Where I’m Still Alive

Hello! Yes, I am alive. Yes, everything is fine. Several lovely people reached out to me over the weekend asking if I was okay, if everything was okay and I realized I never even said, “I’m gonna take a little break,” cuz, frankly, there was not even time/energy for THAT.  I haven’t

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 17, 2022

Damn. At lunch I thought of a really clever way to start this post and do you think I can remember that now?? Absolutely not. In other news, IT’S FRIDAY! OF A 3-DAY WEEKEND! And it’s HOT. We’ve had a really lovely spring, dry and on the cool side for the most

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 15, 2022

I’ve mostly worn these mustard linen pants with with the white linen button-down or the navy-and-white striped tee with the (this) blue chambray top. But once again, two things wound up in my line of sight at the same time (shirt and pants) and I went OH. Huh. Hmm. It’s a LITTLE

It’s Just a Break: BTS Update and Thoughts

I know not everyone is in the BTS lane but this turned into WORLD NEWS (??) yesterday, so maybe you’ve heard…and a couple people have messaged me asking if I’m okay, ha ha. Which is lovely and thoughtful, but yes, I’m essentially okay. So BTS had their annual Festa dinner Monday night

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 13, 2022

IT. WAS. A. DAY. Well, a morning. But…thank goodness I wore something easy breezy! The Invisible Black Dress still earnings its keep. The chartruese-that-looks-yellow-on-camera button-down here for Year Two. Sneakers (shocker). Speaking of Bettye Who Only Wears Sneakers These Days, I HAVE been looking for a very specific mythical creature called Fabric

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 8, 2022

Stripey Easter Egg Day. Or something. No interviews today so I got to go back to the normal uniform 🙂 Things are piling up again – it’s a short work week for me, and there have been a couple extra evening things this week and I’m feeling behind again ARGH. I’m feeling

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 7, 2022

It is virtually IMPOSSIBLE to not twirl swirl swish or sway in this dress. It CAN. NOT. BE. DONE. Another interview, another gussied up day (don’t look at the dirty white sneakers), ha ha. This was my new favorite color combination last year and I still love it. I love the green

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 6, 2022

I had to clean up a bit for an (incoming) interview today – I may have a new office partner soon, woohoo! I liked today’s applicant, I got a good vibe. ANYWAY. I put on a shirt with ruffles. Ha. That’s my version of “dressing up” these days. I usually wear this

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 2, 2022

Let’s see if WordPress can behave today. I’m liking this grey striped button-down ever since it softened, wrinkled, and “casualed up” after washing. I LIKED it all crisp and tailored…but I WEAR it more now. It acts as a neutral like the chambray shirts do…but in a different color so I don’t

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ May 31, 2022

And we’re back. How was everyone’s long holiday weekend? I should not assume everyone had a long weekend. I hope you’ve been well since we were last together – how’s that?? I had a little…meltdown over the weekend. I took a little break from All The Things. Sounds good, right?? Nope. My brain

Plus Size Outfit of the Day ~ June 1, 2022

Did I write May 1 on a bunch of things today?? Maybe. Am I wearing essentially the same shirt as yesterday? YES. Fight me. As soon as the outside water gets fixed (a pipe did not survive the winter and I lost my cute outdoor shower), I’ll get plants for the patio.

Plus Size Outfit & Thoughts of the Day ~ May 27, 2022

Friday. We made it. I sometimes hate the feeling of always hurrying to be in some future situation – after work, the weekend, vacation, when I get older/married/finish school/get a job/have the money/feel better/retire. I feel like MOST of my life has been spent that way. “Live in the moment” SOUNDS So
