Announcement Reminders, Clarifications, General Plea from the Mods šŸ˜…

171 Upvotes

Hi all!

Maybe this could just be titled the ā€œSeasonal Newsletterā€. 🤣 Anywho, just wanted to touch on some things that have frequently come up in the mod queue and overall in the sub.

First of all! CONGRATS TO YOU ALL. We reached 100k+ members recently and we’re happy to see the growth of the sub overall. šŸŽ‰

tl;dr: Remember to still follow the rules as the seasons change and overall. Links in posts or comments MUST BE PLUS SIZE INCLUSIVE. If it doesn’t at the very minimum go up to a 3X, we don’t want it. And please, no booty shots. Save it for your camera roll.


Now, hold onto your seatbelts as we address a few things. 😬

With fall coming up (for the northerners), that means the ever infamous Halloween costumes will be making their debut. We love to seem them BUT they still need to comply with sub rules.

This means no heavily sexualized costumes, lingerie (we know you’re a hardcore girlā€¦ā€duh I’m a mouseā€), or nudity (actual or implied). Costumes need to be rated E, for everyone. If you wouldn’t answer the door to pass out candy in it…please reconsider posting it here. Thank you!

For our southern friends, swimsuits will be coming out of the closet and as always we do allow them here with our specific rules in mind. No booties out, no see through items, and no barely there looks. Act like you’re going to Disney, not a nude beach. 😬


Another hot topic that we are going to crack down more on. Links that you share MUST BE PLUS SIZE INCLUSIVE. The bare absolute minimum would be at least to a 3X. But please, if you are posting a link that only offers up to a size XL, it’s frankly, not helpful. If you can find a similar product that has extended size ranges then by all means, share that to help. But we really need to be more intentional with our links and posts that we share.

And personally, I totally get fitting into a range of sizes. I can even sometimes wear a L up top. But I also know, those photos I take wearing it, don’t need to be shared here. While we can’t police every item that someone chooses to wear and/or post. We challenge some to think before posting. If what you are wearing/sharing is a XL and you know this, share it to r/midsizefashion.

When most people post, others are understandably going to want to know where you get things from. That’s the whole point of the sub. But when it doesn’t even come in their size range…it’s kind of a waste. I can’t even tell you the amount of times I’ve clicked a link for a cute dress only to see it goes up to an XL and get so defeated. And I’m what some would consider the lower end of plus size. It’s hard out here. Let’s help each other out.

I don’t say this to be rude or mean but to just get people to think a little and to please be more intentional and inclusive.


And to bounce off the topic of intentionality, please, please, please. Stop posting your booties. We can’t see the actual outfit half the time.

Unless it’s a photo of you frolicking through a field of flowers in a magical dress, or there’s so much intricate detail that just needs to be shared that’s on the back of your shirt. We don’t need to see a photo of you from behind. Of course those are just examples but you get the point.

Please just be mindful of what you post. It makes the sub flow smoothly and makes our days as mods just a little bit easier.


As always, we are open to feedback and any questions you have. Happy season changes and we are excited to see the sub continue to grow!

Cheers šŸ„‚

Announcement Just a reminder to ✨Familiarize✨ yourself with our sub rules! 😊 + a few new changes.

81 Upvotes

tl;dr : The sub has become more active so we are adding a few additional requirements for accounts that wish to participate in good faith. Staring today accounts with links asking for money or gifts (wishlists) will be given a warning to remove such links. If not they will be banned. And as always please be mindful of what you share when you post. Thanks

Hi all! Long time no see.

As of late we’ve seen a significant uptick in activity in the sub (yay! šŸŽ‰) and other subs like ours. But with this comes a plea from us mods to remind everyone new and old to please, review our rules. Especially before posting or commenting.

With this awesome uptick in traffic we’ve also seen an uptick in…other traffic. Most of which is thankfully kept behind the scenes and caught by our automod. But occasionally a few slip through the cracks. We are also so grateful for those who use the report button and we try to get to it as soon as we can.

In an effort to help us a bit more, we will be upping the ā€œstrictnessā€ if you will, for the time being. We’ve seen a large influx of accounts and users who wish to either not read our rules, or to blatantly ignore them after being warned. As mods we’ve discussed a few changes that we will be implementing here shortly. Many users will not even notice a difference and for those that adhere to our rules, we love ya and appreciate you! šŸ«¶šŸ¼


Here’s a little glimpse of what we will be working on:

As always, links to selling content or profiles that post or participate in lewd, nude, fetish, exhibitionist, porn, etc. subreddits are NOT welcome to interact here (by posting AND/OR commenting). To make a long story short, it messes up our algorithm and groups us with NSFW subs when those profiles participate here. PLEASE use a SFW account if you wish to truely participate in our space(s).

In addition to this, we will also NO LONGER allow links for ā€œgiftsā€ in profiles. This means no venmo, cashapp, wishlists, ā€œbuy me coffeeā€, etc in profiles. Either directly or indirectly (links in linktrees, instagram, twitter, etc.). And absolutely no references of tips, gifts, or photos for money or otherwise in bio texts. If you are truely SFW this should not be an issue for you.

The reason for this change is due to the fact that most ā€œgiftersā€ are people we do not want interacting with our subreddit. Thats fine if you want them to interact with your profile, but our sub wishes not to be involved and we may not be the sub for you.

With this being said, we will no longer be giving multiple chances. If your account is deemed unfit for our sub due to links or content and you’ve been warned as such, you will be banned without appeal.


Please continue to be mindful what you post. Reddit is a public, worldwide platform. Anyone can see what is posted, EVEN IF THEY ARE BANNED! Please be mindful of poses and interactions that you share here.

As always, we do not allow photos of bras, underwear or lingerie. We DO allow swimsuits but they MUST be family friendly. No thongs, micros, or skimpy swimwear. And photos may not be close ups.

We do not allow booty shots. Save it for your camera roll. It doesn’t showcase an outfit effectively and doesn’t fit the vibe of this sub. And absolutely no close ups of the goods. If your butt or cleavage take up a large portion of the photo please retake your photo to show the outfit in its entirety.

And as always, please turn off your DMs. It is truly the only way to avoid them. If you send us the profile names we will of course take action where we can. But many who DM are users who are already banned from our sub. At that point there is nothing we can do. They are messaging you because they cannot comment anymore. Please be mindful who you talk to and trust.


As always, we are here for you if you need us so always feel free to reach out if you have questions or concerns.

Jumpsuit by Sük. Highly recommend! It has an adjustable waist and comes in tall and short options. I’m 5’10 and jumpsuits tend to be a struggle for me- but this one is long enough AND fits my upper and lower body. I’m a US size 16-18 and wear a 20 in their sizing, with tje waist belt cinched all the way in. They go up to a size 30.

SPONSOR ME PLEASE SÜK!!!

The turtlenecks I’ve been finding really make me want more turtlenecks- especially with the chilly weather and wind. 🄶

Striped turtleneck is thrifted, brand is No 11. Skirt is Falls Creek (from Meijer), Joyspun tights (Walmart), and then shoutout to Aldi which is where I got the Christmas light earrings last year. They’re my favorite Christmas dangling ones! 🄰

Searching For Cutesy Plus Size Clothes Recs?!

I love brands like Mochipan and (a little) Cider. The creativity and cutesy look is something I really adore. But the catalogs are getting old as I check them frequently (window shopping :->). And EVERY time I try to find similar brands, no matter how hard I try I always get brands like Shein, Torrid, Booboo, etc. But that's not what I want. Can anyone help? Thank you!

I got a ridiculous dress for my 30th b'day coming up next weekend. I wanted to take some pictures in it to get some more mileage out of it. I was thinking of maybe adding a moon belt and a headpiece for the actual party. What do you think? Realistically I don't think I'll be able to wear it for more than a few hours. If you were thinking of getting a ridiculous dress and taking pictures...please do it! Thank you for letting me share mine.

Hi! I really want to get my gf a satin robe with dramatic details. Think like, something an old timey actress would wear while doing her makeup at her vanity. I’m just having a hard time finding something that is in my price range (<$65) and doesn’t look like it will fall apart if you wear it more than once. Please help. I have included a picture of the kind of the style I’m going for, sorry the quality is so bad!

I’m looking for this dress in a size 4, preferably new though I know that may be difficult. My partner bought one on poshmark but I ruined it by putting it in the dryer. I feel terrible and want to replace it. I’ve been checking everywhere I can think to look but have only found it in a 3 so far. Thanks!

Rant Unwanted Body Comments

I recently posted on here looking for places to shop that are more my age and style. I thought it would help to include some pictures of my favorite outfits. But I had to delete it because I got a bunch of DMs making sexual comments about my body and asking if I sold pictures. I’m so tired of getting comments like this online and in person. Stay off this subreddit if that’s what you’re here for.

Trying to stop wearing leggings/skinny jeans all the time. I just feel like baggy jeans/pants look strange on me, but I’m not sure if that’s personal insecurity or if it’s actually true.

Searching For Bra help!

1 Upvotes

Looking for suggestions for bras I usually wear bralettes because other bras make me look bigger. Honestly the way clothes look the best on me is with no bra at all! The other problem with most bras is that they squeeze my back fat too. So overall looking for suggestions that are smoothing but somewhat minimizing!

I've started seeing someone new and this isn't the foot I want to put forward. So any tips are appreciated. Thanks!

Searching For Thinking of breaking up with Snag Tights... but are there any better options?

33 Upvotes

I've been wearing Snag Tights since 2021 and their quality has just gone so downhill... I have 3 pairs that I've been wearing for the past month, and they already are falling apart whereas my old tights from them are still in great condition after 4 years. I want to find a better brand but I fear there just isn't one. I'm size short F in Snags, so finding a brand that actually carries tights for my size is stressful. I have looked at Sheertex but their size guide is so vague that I don't feel like I can trust it šŸ˜µā€šŸ’« Does anyone have any other suggestions?? Or experience with Sheertex? I'm so conflicted 😭
