Someone over on [livejournal.com profile] fruits posted this link: Glamour Hut.

Oh, it's all adorable and stuff, but almost all the clothes are in Tiny Asian Girl Sizes. Not for Bigger Asian Girls or Huge Gaijin Girls or whatever. Waaaaaah! (I guess if I were desperate I could buy a tote bag or something.) Anyway, if your chest is 36" or less, there are a ton of really adorable shirts there. And they have Pucca stuff too...
I haven't even LOOKED at the shoes... I mean, if the largest shirt size they have is S/M, do you think they're going to have sz 10 shoes?

You're clever and creative enough to make your own shirts and stuff. =)

I'm not even going to look, because I get so depressed trying to find clothes that fit. Out here, the most stylish clothes are over on Telegraph Ave., right next to UC Berkeley, and ALL of the stores only stock teeny little clothes for the large population of tiny asian girls... grrr.

By coincidence, I also joined [livejournal.com profile] fruits today.

In Japan, the largest shoe size for women is 24.5, comparable to a US 8½. This meant that I could barely cram my size-nine clown feet into the 24.5 clogs I wore around school. If your feet are size 8 and up, I suggest you look for your shoes in the men's department.

I feel your pain, my sistah! If I'm *lucky* I can squeeze my feets into a size 10... assuming they're not narrow and/or pointy-toed. I'm really closer to the 10 1/2-11 range

I'm also getting really tired of being told by clothing tags that I'm an XL. I'm not XL, dammit!

*cries* I wear a 10.5 (but pretend to be a 10) ultra-ultra narrow (which means that I can't wear men's sizes, even though a men's 8 will do for length - guys' shoes are just WAY too wide).

HOWEVER. I am flat as a board (like, 31-inch chest flat), so I will definitely look into the shirts. Shirts are always really big on me (and I can't sew to alter them), so I'm glad that you pointed out the link - no more baggies! <33333
