Plus size in Supre!

SUPRE! I gave up looking in Supre years ago when it started stocking only sizes 4XS-L. A handful of things went up to a XL, but not much. I think that before the last few months, I’d bought one thing (a scarf) in the last 5 years. With the oversized trend though, I started looking in the more ‘straight’ sized stores. My sister picked up some great oversized tops for $15 & I decided to venture in to have a look.

This top, which has been in a few OOTD was the first thing I picked up. It’s an XL, but recently, they’ve also added some XXL things in! I’d been eyeing the leggings for awhile, but could never find an XXL in my local store, so last week while in the City with Caitlin, I ducked in to try a pair on and BINGO! Hello my lovelies, you are coming home with me!

One of the good things about the leggings, is they come in a ‘high waisted’ option, which for someone with a belly, works better for me. Add to the fact they were on sale that night for $15 and I couldn’t refuse them. The black and white striped ones (which you only have phone cam pics of cause they are in the wash) seem to be not as stretchy as the cosmic print. I think it’s due to the way they are dyed.

MOONLIGHT PRINT HIGH WAISTED – $20 | B&W STRIPED HIGH WAISTED – $20

I should probably apologise for looking like a mess, I spent the morning moving some stuff to #thedarlingden. I’m also working with limited wardrobe, so this isn’t probably how i’d style these pieces, but I wanted to show of the items while they are still available!

I’m actually doing something I don’t normally do in these photos, which is show off my arms. It is one area that I still don’t feel comfortable on show. While I accept my body and have learnt to love myself, I feel much more comfortable and confident with a shrug on. Oh, and that skirt is actually a singlet :P

I LOVED the pattern on this top, which is actually a ‘swing dress‘. It’s supposed to be super oversized so you can show off your fancy neon bra or swimsuit underneath. I went to pick up the L, but when I got home realised I’d picked up the M, so ladies, here it is in the medium. This was $22, and I figured it’s about the same price for a plain printed tunic top for Big W or that.

It does however have a low back. It works well with my favourite bra, however that was in the wash, and my others didn’t work. So yes, these pictures are of my boobs in their ‘natural’ state. It’s light and airy for summer and I was planning to wear it as a tunic over some of my leggings as it covers enough butt.

OUTFIT DETAILS: Purple singlet – K-mart | Mesh top –  TS14+. | Shoes – Wanted | Skirt – Actually a singlet from Target | Shoes – Some store in NZ | Bangles – Lou & Chow

    Hot looks Nat! I really like the way you’ve styled the dress and skirt (/top haha!) – you look great :)
    If you’re worried about the bra thing though, you could always head back to Supre and grab some of their cropped tops/bandeaus for layering – I do that anyway with their basic crop in white so I don’t have to change my bras for lighter tops XD
    haha that’s probably t.m.i BUT point is it’s an option!
    Also, I don’t know if they still have them but the highwaisted “essex” legging has an extremely high waist unlike their other leggings that is as a result crazy comfortable (think pajama) and I’d recommend them also… yay for Supre! xx

    Love that you got some cosmic leggings! It all looks great. Those stripeys will go with everything. Stripes are the new neutral:)

  • abearmadethis

    thanks for the heads up on the Supre leggings, I nearly bought some recently but just wasn’t certain the XXL would fit. Maybe I’ll give it a go now :)

  • Michelle

    Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! There is something about your smile that makes me smile back!!!

  • Stacey Cash

    Those leggings actually look really awesome! I tend to avoid Supre because their sizes are always super tiny, and I haven’t been happy with the quality of their stuff in a long time. This kind of makes me want to give them another try though!

    Oh, they aren’t the highest of quality, but I’m pretty happy with them for $15, or even the full $20. I think the cosmic ones will last longer then the b&w stripes, they feel different. I think because the cosmic print is the actual fabric, but the white on the stripes are like a paint.

    Aw, thank you!

    I was the same! I was tempted to buy a pair online in the XXL as I couldn’t find them in my local store, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it. That’s why when I found them in the city I tried them on straight away and would share! The cosmic leggings are realllly stretchy and would fit someone a bit bigger then me.

    I am so excited about cosmic leggings! I LOVE striped, I have this outfit in my head of these, with a long singlet, my oversized sheer top, creepers and my beetlejuice bow!

  • http://extralargeaslife.com/ Natalie Mulford

    Yeah you do *strikes a pose*

  • http://extralargeaslife.com/ Natalie Mulford

    Stripes always remind me of Beetlejuice and hey, I was a teenage goth!

  • http://extralargeaslife.com/ Natalie Mulford

    Thanks Emily! I keep meaning to pick up one of those bandeaus, but they are always at the register and by the time I’m served I tend to only find M as the largest! Oh, shall have to check them out, I think I’m going to try and pick up another pair or two, I can’t resist some fun leggings at a good price!
