    Signed up to take a look, but I'm afraid it's not my thing either.
    A waist is a terrible thing to mind.

    FREE MAGAZINE FOR PLUS-SIZE WOMEN!!!! :T

    The subscribe link appears to be to subscribe to a website - how do you get hold of the magazine? (is it like metro and only available in cities or something - if so, there are obviously no fatties in smaller towns!)

    Are there any other 'seriously big and beautiful' (ok, maybe I'm not the next plus size model......) girls out there?

    I'm a size 30/32 round the 'bottom' and a 48F bust (which means I wear a lot of seperates)

    I love to wear trousers and bright coloured tops/jumpers. I'm a country girl at hear, and used to enjoy walking my dogs, keeping quite fit until about a year ago, when I was struck down by a mystery virus - this lead to me going from a 28/30 to a 30/32 :(
    Please forgive me if my comments seem abrupt or my questions have obvious answers, I have a mental health condition which affects my ability to see things as others might.

    You are right, it's not clear if subscribing to the website will also mean that you get the magazine. I receive the magazine by email, as a PDF attachment.

    I suggest emailing them: [EMAIL="subscriptions@justasbeautiful.co.uk"]subscriptions@justasbeautiful.co.uk[/EMAIL] (I wont' be able to access the forum for a few days, so it makes more sense for someone else to do it and post their answer here).

    PS. last issue I received:

    You can download the back issues in PDF format from the site there are about 3 years worth on there.

    Roman originals do plus size clothing (12-22), found out about them when another thread about a cheap party dress was posted the other day. It was delivered quickly and wasn't bad at all for a tenner.

    Hi all, i have been busy busy busy so not been on for a while, so i hope you are all in good health and spirits(not the 40% ones!). I have had a bad experience with 'yours clothing' the other day, seeing that sequins are big for xmas i thought i would get a sequined jacket therefor enabling me to add a little glam when i wanted to. I purchased one from yours for £50... It was such poor quality when it arrived and i wanted to wear it the same evening! The sequins were cut short, so were not round and scratched, there were threads hanging off in many areas and there was no shape to it at all. I looked up how to return it.. You must pay for this and will not get the postage paid to receive the item...unless its faulty.. Mine is..but still have to make a scene in the post office as proff of postage and costs must be sent inside with the item?! I won't use them again and just wanted to warn you of the postage costs. On a lighter note i have been sent the new fashion world catalogue and there are a few new pieces that are really nice.
