5 Stores To Shop At If You're A Plus-Size Woman

As a plus sized woman, I've had my fair share of struggles while shopping for clothing. It's too tight, too short, or it just doesn't compliment me the way it should. After lots of research, here are 5 places that are safe for you to go and spend your money at. Now, while I'm here advocating for plus sized women, all other body types should get some recognition: all bodies are beautiful. Every single body is gorgeous and no body should be shamed. Ever.

1. Lane Bryant

Yes, it's expensive, but if you need something professional, nice, or semi-formal, this is the place to go. From tee-shirts and jeans to semi formal dresses you can find anything you need in your size. I've never had any problems finding a comfortable fit in any clothing! Just be careful: you will spend your entire paycheck if you let yourself go. The clearance racks are honestly amazing, though! #PlusIsEqual

2. Torrid

Another place where you could potentially spend your entire paycheck, but damn will you look hot. #LoveYourself

3. AdoreMe

I love by AdoreMe. Their sizes are pretty true and their stuff is comfortable. They sell everything from T-Shirt bras to lingerie, you'll definitely find something for you. If you sign up for their VIP, you'll get your first set for $20. After that, sets are usually $39.95-$49.95, but it's definitely worth the money. Comfortable, nice, and easy to dress up or down. They always have sales and deals, so check it out now! #PlusIsSexy

4. Catherine's

I'm sure you're sensing a pattern: Plus size clothing is expensive. However, if you look around and follow deals, you can save some cash! Catherine's usually has some more casual clothing as well as some "RSVP Worthy" clothes as well!! #PlusIsBeautiful

5. Forever 21

Although it can be limited, it's extremely affordable. Probably the most affordable on the list. It may rip, but the top was so cheap that you don't even mind! #PlusIsOkay

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
