The Frump Effect (Warning: Whiny Rant!)

I have to second what foucault said about a.n.a. jeans at JC Penny. I found a pair there, in a size 20, that fit me perfectly through the waist, thighs, and legs. The only thing is that they're at least 3 inches too long. My mom is going to take a hem on them, eventually. But they are super cute, dark wash, very stylish looking. And I got them on sale for only $7.99!

misschris - Me too! I went when they were having a 50% off sale, and got the jeans at a great price. Mine are also size 20 and a bit long, but I just roll up the bottoms when I'm not wearing heels. Apparently, that's fashionable now, but I didn't know that beforehand. I'm out-of-touch with fashion.

I definately have a similar problem. I am VERY pear shaped and TALL (about 6'). So plus size shirts tend to be like a belly shirt, and too wide for me. Pants are another problem. It's hard enough to find cute plus size pants, but cute, plus size AND tall is even harder.
