Cliff Notes: ZM is a pissed off fatty.



WTF Macy's why would you not carry the plus size dresses in your stores? Not one store in the greater Seattle area had any of the 12 dress styles I checked on in stock, regardless of color! Ranting

So out of frustration and a lack of trust in Macy's stock system, I ordered the same dress in three different sizes, hoping one of them will be the right fit.

The two dresses that arrived today were truly plus size and both were too big. Hopefully the last one, which is the smallest of the three will fit. Pray

Guess I'm not as much of a fat ass as I thought I was. Blush

They were mules, dammit! I don't like how I look in pumps.

Uh, I mean, I just guessed on her size! I didn't want to snoop around the closet.
Mules? Really? With your legs? Nono1

Come to Mississippi. I went shopping for a dress tonight and almost everything at Belk and Dillards is size 12 and up. I only found two size 6 skirts, no dresses at all. The "Real Women" and plus size areas of the stores here take up more floor space than any other department.

I asked an associate in Dillard's where the smaller sizes were and she said try "Juniors". Anyone with half a brain knows that the only people that can wear girl's junior clothing are teenage boys and q-tips with eyeballs.

Long story short, if you wear a 4,6 or 8, and you can't afford to fly to New York and shop, you better be prepared to go all Little House on the Prairie and make your own clothes. Annoyed

I've never been able to find stuff in department stores. I'm a 0 so it's either mall stores like express, at, or br or online shopping for me.
