Ali is living proof that a great jacket can make a cute girl even more so.

(This is why I love winter!)

Eli:
I had forgotten how much I hate when girls wear tights as pants until yesterday when I saw so many girls wearing them as such. (I'm am in no way affiliated with this website.)

Fatty, I love your boots. It seems like a headband or barrettes would add to your outfit.

Barmymoo:
I think you look great as you are, but I am not a fashion expert.

I have problems with bras, beacuse most places don't do small enough back sizes with large enough cup sizes, so I have to compromise and end up with uncomfortable and insanely expensive bras

That's a point... any ideas on how to make myself not look top heavy? Particularly dress styles that would suit someone who isn't very tall but has a fairly large bust. Short skirts do not work on me. Not that I'm being picky or anything... I have very few dresses that really suit me (I have very few at all).

Heranje:
Eli, don't get me started on the whole tights-as-pants thing. It's so terrible! Where I live, there's this whole fashion of girls wearing tights with really big, baggy sweaters/jackets and their hair all big and swooshed to one side (and usually dyed (or naturally) blonde). It looks freaking terrible. I don't know this is a purely Norwegian phenomenon or if the plague is in other parts of the world as well?

The worst thing is, my best friend is a sort of... round girl, and she does the tights thing (though thankfully not with the other stuff), and sorry, it just does not work! They emphasize the wobble and it's not pretty. I'd feel mean to tell her not to do it, though. =K I mean, she's all curvy and she can really work it with the right outfit, but the tights just make her look, well, fat, which she's really not. Am I the only one who thinks you should realize what you have and work with that and also realize what you can't wear and accept it? =K How do I tell my friend to stop it with the tights without sounding like a bitch?

Metope:
Haha, wow, I could tell you were a fellow Norwegian even before you mentioned Norway. I haven't seen anyone from another country dressed like that. It's a horrible, horrible way to dress, nobody can pull it off, and too many tries to.

About your friend, I don't think it's bitchy to tell her as long as you do it nicely. It's kind of like telling someone they have something in their teeth... You don't really want to, but as long as you don't they'll walk around for the rest of the day looking like an idiot. It's for their own good, right?

I guess you don't have to say the tights makes her look fat, just tell her it doesn't suit her as well as, say, a nice pair of jeans or a skirt. Good luck!
