Fat Shopaholic Thrifting Day

Sunday, February 13, 2011

Finally I’m back with a proper outfit post. Yesterday I held a thrifting day here in Chicago. We went to two thrifts stores and had grommet hot dogs at Franks N’ Dawgs. I had a brunch dog (breakfast sausage, sunny side up egg, bacon, an maple sauce), the Kosher choice dog (pork Belly Sausage, black forest ham, sweet and sour cabbage, dill sour cream, and fried beet strings), and truffle fries. Everything was really good. Here’s some food porn.

Here’s a video recapping the whole amazingly fun day. Click the 720p setting for better quality. 


This is what I wore. I ordered this sweat shirt from Woman Within in a 4x (size 36), so it could be really oversized, cut the neck so it hung off the shoulder and cut a silt up the front so I could tie it because it was tunic length. I really like the turn out. I may order more and give them a similar treatment. I paired it with a pair of Evans harem pants. I find that when I order my regular size in the Evans harem pants they don’t have that baggy harem fit, so I ordered them in UK 32. I love my new docs. I wear an 11 1/2 and was nervous about the fit of the size 11, but it worked out. Docs can be a little hard to break in,so they are killing my feet, but getting better with every wear. If you have a new pair that are rubbing up against your heels, but duck tape in the back of the shoe. Thats a trick I learned it high school. I still have my tall black pair and red short pair from high school; docs last forever.

I have been loving playing in make up. I did my eyes for the first time since high school and love the turn out. I had never intended to get into eye make up again, so I only have one eye pallet. I must get some more. After all I can’t wear green every day.
