Not only are target designer collections a great way to get the look for less but they (since 2015) offer plus sizes in the clothing items; which is typically something the collaborating brand does not offer including Stoney Clover Lane. While Stoney Clover Lane typically does not offer clothing they have in the past offered branded tees and sweatshirts and limited collabs of terry lounge wear but these pieces all maxed out at size 16. Stoney Clover Lane x Target will not only offer branded sweatshirts and a few terry pieces but will include several dresses and casual warm weather items and a lot of swim wear in their bright colors and prints.

Stoney Clover Lane offers bags and pouches that can be personalized with an assortment of patches they also carry. Stoney Clover has what they call their “core collection” that is a variety of silhouettes in solid colors. Prices start at $38 for a luggage tag or clear travel pouch and go up to $208 for a duffle bag. The large pouch, which retails for $78, is their best seller. Of course, there’s really nothing exciting about a solid color nylon pouch so the real fun comes in customization.

As I’ve gotten older (and perhaps a little wiser) there are some things in life I no longer have the patience for. Near the top of my list is uncomfortable shoes. This is an area where I have pivoted to buying quality over quantity. However, it had been a struggle to find a quality, wide width, not too tall heel. So it was really my lucky day when this unicorn of shoes found me and I received an email from Ally Shoes.

Do you ever have an article of clothing ​where you think oh this would look so cute with X, but you don’t have X so it just sits in your closet unworn? That’s how I feel about a lot of my dresses and for me X was a pair of tights in fun colors. To be honest I’ve spend most of my life hating pantyhose / tights because well, they’re tight! As someone who is both tall and plus size I always felt like I was shoving myself into something not really meant for my body when wearing tights. But after following Snag Tights on social media for a while and seeing women in a variety of shapes and sizes in their tights I decided it was time to give them a try!

Unless you have been living under a rock this past year you have probably heard of the brand Selkie, and you’ve probably heard that they are size inclusive and are curious about their plus size fits. I currently have three plus size Selkie dresses (with a 4th on the way) and two plus size Selkie sweaters so I feel comfortable enough with Selkie to give an in-depth review. ​
