Being a girl is so much fun when it comes to cute clothes and getting dressed up or looking nice. Girls love compliments and feeling good about themselves, but sometimes finding the right outfit can be difficult.
There are so many stores like Francesca's or Dress Up that go from size extra small to large, and even then the clothes might fit too tight or snug. I know certain stores don't order larger sizes for in-store purchases, but customers can go online and buy clothes that may fit them.
It is really difficult for girls who aren't very small, or what the idea of "skinny" is, to find cute clothes that don't make them feel enormous or uncomfortable. Women come in so many different shapes and sizes and the clothes that are available to us are almost desgined to fit one figure or one type of person.
Personally, I hate going shopping and trying on clothes because I know that the clothes I like won't fit me so I don't even want to try.
Of course, there are stores out there that will fit the larger woman, but most of the time the clothes aren't as cute as the extra small shirt in the adorable boutique around the corner or makes a girl feel as beautiful as their smaller friends that can easily buy something fashionable in these certain stores.
Bodies aren't made for the clothes, the clothes are made for the bodies and I wish stores and designers cared more about people who don't fit into the stereotypical small, medium or large.
There are so many beautiful outfits out there and it makes me so angry that I am turned away from certain stores because clothes simply run up to a large. It's unfair to larger women and women who have larger breasts or anything else that may set them apart from the smaller sized women seen shopping in the boutiques.
It's difficult going shopping with friends who are smaller than me. They can easily walk into a store and find something that will look great on them and fit them and it might take me four or five stores before I can even fit a shirt over my left boob, even if it is a large.
Finding the right outfit causes me so much stress and I just wish there were more stores like Old Navy, Gap or Target that made young women like me feel confident in my own skin.
