i was looking around for malls in the detroit area to visit my friend and there aren't Lane Bryant's around in some of them. i can understand not having Torrid but Lane Bryant is a staple for me!
the thing that REALLY pissed me off was this store. 579. 579 is a national retail apparel chain operating in the continental united states and puerto rico, carrying trendy junior clothing featuring sizes 00 thru 9 WTF! it's bad enough i feel fat! the only store i don't feel fat in is target because the 2xls are too big for me! EVEN AMERICAN EAGLE GOES UP TO SIZE 18 ONLINE! sorry for people who shop there, but i think this store is lame, and is affecting anyone above the size of 9 who has heard of it. this is how we get lindsay lohan skinny and it's.... GRR! u heard mine, express your view. |

^ That's pretty much what I think, minus the walking around naked thing. O.O
And I am not saying this is your case, because I don't even know you, but there are some overweight people who are overweight because they're lazy. If they sit around all day eating and not exercising, they can't expect the rest of the world to cater to them. Not being able to shop everywhere is a consequence of their laziness. Granted, some people are big boned, but if someone weighs 600 pounds, they can't blame that on their bones, and they can't complain that they can't find clothes. It's their fault. That said, I DO think that there should be more stores specifically for plus-sized teens, like Torrid. Because the "normal" stores will never offer a good selection of larger sizes. |
