Torridble :(

Armed with a xanax and some excitement I planned a shopping spree for my lunch hour.  That's right dear readers, I was making my first trip to a plus sized woman's clothing store (xanax was needed because what if they thought I was too thin to be shopping there?  Or thought I was just the right size?  I wasn't sure which made me more anxious!). I picked Torrid because I'm drooling over their new retro line- so very rockabilly which looks magical on women with curves.

Sure I could have ordered it online, but I'm fat and I'm proud and I wanted to try a real store.  I knew there was Torrid in the mall near my office. Imaging the new sexy capris and tattoo top I would be buying once I got there as I walked over on this beautiful early summer day.  Excitement overcame me that I might be a "small" again, if only in the plus size range!  

Only to find that Torrid  had gone out of business in that mall.

Devastated, I hit the Hot Topic sale and got an XXL tank top of the bride of Frankenstein for $9.99

What are your favorite plus sized stores?  Any that offer nice alternative, rockabilly or punky looks? thanks xox
