That's Noice!

Finding great clothes in sizes larger than 14-16 can be a struggle at times. Major retail chains are catching up and stocking designs in larger sizes but can still be a struggle, especially for younger women (and those that are young at heart ;) ) lets face it, some of it is down right horrid!

We still have a long way to go here in Australia, as usual we are well behind other countries in the products we have here on offer. There are still some gaping holes in what is on offer for the curvier chick, and if you do manage to find something it usually costs a small fortune.

Here I have put together a list of some Australian retailers selling plus sized fashion online.

Australian Plus Sized clothing

• Sara / Ezibuy
  
• Entitled
• Dream Diva
• Plus Sized Clothing
• City Chic
• Kivalin
• Under cover wear (mail order but you can order online)
  
• My Size
• Postie (mail order)
  

Some other great sites that aren’t Australian but you can still pick up some great deals in their sales.

• Evans (UK)
  
• Torrid (US)

Would love to hear any other sites/brands you may know of, let me know in the comments.

There’s not really very much to say about these colour-in dresses, but – WANT!

Also: how children’s clothes should be designed.

I am a bit of a tshirt junkie, love buying and looking at cool shirts.
Teefurry is a great t site showcasing fantastic artists. They sell one shirt every 24hrs, get in quick before it’s gone. The shirts are $9US. A new days shirt goes on sale 3pm AESDT.

Usually, the designs are a surprise until it goes on sale, but the folks at Teefurry have given us a bit of a sneak peak at 2 awesome designs coming up this week. I.MUST.HAVE ceiling cat shirt!!!!!

Available at Teefurry for $9US

City Chic, has launched it’s brand new website and online store. To celebrate they are offering 20% off all items online.

They have a great new range, with a lot more now available online. They are also offering international shipping to USA, Canada, UK & New Zealand.

City Chic is a fashion forward retailer bringing the latest trends to the size 14-24.

Holy cow, look at this thing!

The Bra Dryer is a device which is based on the presumption that the best way to dry bras without ruining their fabric, wiring and padding is to dry them on a shape which resembles female breasts. That’s why Bra Dryer is shaped like a female torso.

An infrared heat source helps evaporate moisture from the bra fabric while silent fans inside the appliance help remove this moisture.

At the moment Bra Dryer is still in the development phase and production is expected in 2010.

At first I didn’t think this would be my type of thing. But thinking about all the nice bras I’ve bought over the years through Intimo – it’d be nice to be able to look after them better and make them last longer.

So the Bra Dryer would help protect your beloved bras while drying them – but what about washing them? I was mine in my front-loader in a lingerie bag and I know some friends who wash theirs in the shower.

How do you prefer to wash your bras?

Johnny Cupcakes is having a Bakesale a with up to 45% off selected items.

I have a bit of a T addiction and would love nothing more to add a Johnny Cupcakes T or 2 to my collection.

But sadly, Johnny Cupcakes is another store that needs to work on their international postage charges. Postage for one shirt is about $26US !

Come on people, you can’t tell me it costs THAT much to post a little t shirt to Australia. Threadless charges half that for 4-5 shirts.

I guess at least they actually offer international postage. It still surprises me the amount of online stores that do not.

Sorry, end rant. Check out the sale if your in the US or can afford the postage.
