Stumbled into this on Metafilter:

Huge spreadsheet of plus-size clothing retailers online, with details about what they sell and "their" sizing vs real sizing.

This wonderful tool is curated by Stephanie, who also maintains the Artist Alley Survival Guide, of interest to anyone exhibiting stuff at a con or art show.

The plus-sized list is woefully incomplete. Neiman Marcus has a huge inventory of high-end clothing, including a better selection of Eileen Fisher than the brand's online site. I didn't see Saks Fifth Avenue either. They both have outlet stores, too. What about friggin' Amazon? Zappos? Walmart? For brands, Nic and Zoe has its own site. So does Citron and Rachel Pally. Hanky Panky. Lafayette 148 New York.

God, I just spotted a gorgeous cotton T-shirt by Marina Rinaldi at Saks that I really want. Except that it's $185. I cannot afford it. Not even on sale.

OT. I can't believe they're trying to foist pastel colored jeans on us again. Eh. I still have a pair from the last go round I can dig out of the back of the closet.

The internet is a constant source of temptation.

OT #2 There are no plus-sized over 50 fashion bloggers. None. I've looked. Only thin, very thin, and extra thin older women. Like size 4.

Thanks for adding to the list.

Size 4? Hah! Did they not go through menopause?

Speaking of pastel pants, my simple desire is a t-shirt that doesn't have folded fabric in it. WHEN WILL THIS STUPID TREND END?
