So I'm going to kill City Chic right now..

Okay, so I sign up to receive all these email notifications on sales and stuff for all these plus size retailers because I like to know when there's a good deal. And I ALWAYS get stuff from City Chic, who I love like crazy. And I opened up my email and browsed the site and am like about to cry because they have the cutest clothes in the world.

For once in my life, I don't want to buy a black shirt! City Chic actually has cute clothes that look very nice on plus sized girls that aren't the color black and it is really freaking inspiring. However, the clothes I like are like 60 bucks per shirt. Which is seriously killing me. If I was to buy two shirts, that'd be my 25 hours of work, which isn't fair. I know I've had a crazy obsession with City Chic lately, but I just have been looking at the site and absolutely adoring everything.

City Chic is, by far, my favorite plus size store in the world. I said it, yup! I've never bought anything from there (yet), but I love their clothes so much. Torrid charges too much and doesn't deliver on style, Forever 21+ is just too slow and doesn't go any larger than a 3x which in Forever 21 language is like an 18 and all other stores don't really appeal to me that well. I want to marry City Chic, but they're too expensive for my taste. Someone please buy me a city chic gift card for christmas! Pleaseeee!

City Chic Discounts Yayayayay!

So we all know how poor I am and how my minimum wage job allows me to purchase absolutely nothing. So, whenever there is a good deal, I'm all for using that discount up to its maximum use ;)

SOOOO *drum roll please!*
CITY CHIC, WHICH IS THE BEST STORE IN THE WORLD, HAS A 30% OFF DISCOUNT TO ALL US BUYERS.

Originally an Australian plus size retailer, they have branched out to the US and now are selling their wonderful and totsey totes adorable clothes to us! So, if you plug in the code BM30FS, you can get your 30% off on the best clothes in the world.
Seriously, I have never purchased from them because who knows what size is right for me and if I have to send it back, the shipping would be a pain, but I'm so excited right now.

Being that they are pretty expensive, I'd take full opportunity of this amazing offer because, honestly, it'd be stupid not to.

Click thisss ---> City Chic! <---Click ittttt

They really have some great clothes in there, the only problem is 1. they're expensive (at least to me) and 2. it's like summer in Australia, so they don't really have clothes that can typically keep us Americans that warm, lol.

NEVERTHELESS, go to citychic.com like now. Okay :)

My camera broke..

Excuses after excuses, I dropped my phone in the sink because I went to Albany with my mom and I put it on the little table in the bathroom where the sink is and when i pressed the 10 second photo framing so I could get into position to take a picture FOR YOU GUYS, i tapped it over and dropped it into the sink (and I was too stupid to turn off the water because I had just finished brushing my teeth and am completely stupid). But I've managed, I stole my mom's camera ;)

Cardigan Craziness: Monday

I've been thinking about what to post on here, especially since I haven't been that well of a blogger. Sorry, again, for the lack of posts. So, I got bored and decided I was going to wear cardigans all week - 5 days of school, 5 cardigans. I just wanted to do it to show how versatile they really are and how they really are the best thing everrrr! Hahaha, okay so today is Monday. This shirt, I bought at Marshalls (where else?) for 15 bucks. The capris were 20 bucks, also from Marshall's. My cardigan I got like two years ago at Torrid, so about 35 bucks, I'm assuming.

Now, I really like this outfit because it's actually really simple to do. It's too cold to wear a sleeveless tank with ruffles, especially since I don't like showing my pale arms, so putting a cardigan on makes it available for other seasons as well as makes me feel comfortable.
Tank: Chiffon Flutter Ruffles Top; $17.80 (Faith 21)
Cardigan:
Ivory Lace-Trimmed Cropped Cardigan; $34.00 (Torrid)
Capris: Roll Cuff Capri; $21.99 (Wet Seal)

^^Note: I can't find the exacts, but I'm giving you something. Incase you can't see in the picture, the cardigan has a couple of little ruffles, so that's why I put it with the tank. :)
So yeah, that's for today. Hope you enjoy it! If the cardigan wasn't from Torrid, I bet my outfit would have been like under 60 bucks! Boo torrid ;) Lol, jk, but the Torrid cardigans last me forever, never had a problem with them. Enjoy! See ya tomorrow!

City Chic Tribal Lookbook

Image and video  hosting by TinyPic

So here are the photos from City Chic's new lookbook, I like the pieces but not the looks. I feel like I'm in the middle of Ke$ha's "Your Love is My Drug" music video. The headpiece that is worn in basically every picture is cool, but I could never see myself wearing that, unless it was Halloween or something. I just wish there was a different kind of look so I could actually see the outfits better. But the maxi dress on the top right is really cute. All outfits are cute, I just wish they were done differently.
I don't know, I mean it's really creative and I give them credit. The shots look like they could be on ANTM, but I just don't like them. I like looks that go with the outfits. I can't see someone in a maxi dress standing in the middle of a wheel or whatever. When I looked at the tribal pieces by themselves, I actually liked them. They didn't seem tribal at all! They were regular, adorable, regular City Chic clothes that I love and wish I had enough money to pay for! So, please, can someone just make a regular lookbook once? I guess that takes away creativity or something, but I wouldn't mind something not crazy.
