OrangeBear

Do you know OrangeBear? I found it on YesStyle a while ago but never bought anything. I think I will soon. They carry plus sizes bigger that also go well beyond my size. I think I'll order one size up for my first order, just to be safe. It's not like I don't have a sewing machine to make adjustments.

Take this 2-fer for example. Good luck trying to find this in my size locally. It just oozes "comfy" all over the place, too. I am on a shopping break for the next month maybe (personal goal of self-budgeting). I may not be splurging anytime soon, but I'll be getting this top sooner than later. Now that I know my dress code at work is stupid, I'll be dressing more casually.

(Seriously. You can't wear flip flops, but you can wear sweat pants/shirts. According to the "non-slip soles" for footwear, I could rock slippers to work if I wanted. What sense does that make?)

Anyway, I want that top and many others. The end. Now, eye candy:

Note to all my fellow big gals: Just because they make it in your size doesn't mean it's flattering and you should wear it. DRESS FOR YOUR SHAPE!

I Wannabe Like Mel B.

I'm sure this won't come as a surprise to anyone, but when I was a teen I was a HUGE Spice Girls fan. My nickname in school was Crazy Spice. I wanted Mel B. to be my big sister. She's such a good role model and inspiration for me. Also, and not for nothin, she's absolutely gorgeous. The funny thing is that one would think I'd have stopped being a fan once Spice Girls was over. Nope. I saw her in some mediocre-to-good-but-not-great sci-fi/horror flick called LD 50 (Lethal Dose). I enjoyed it though.

Anyway, I'm watching her reality show now and it just reinforces my belief that we are very similar in both behavior and the way we analyze things. I know there's a lot of editing in the world of TV, but some things are obvious. Now I just wanna have her over to play dress up and drink yummy liquor! She may not be gyaru but I don't give two craps about most celebrities, especially not models. They're just people. Some I think would be fun to hang with. Mel is at the top of that list. She's my MILF motivation, but beyond that she is a goof ball and I know I'd actually have fun on a number of levels with her. So yes. Mel B. FTW
