I've posted about my love of the UK int he past, particularly because they are leaps and bounde ahead of the U.S. in embracing plus size fashion.
And now I have discovered ladies jeans from Marisota. Readers, my advice is: SPEND THE MONEY on shipping from overseas because the retail prices on these are STELLAR. $40 for a pair of designer-quality jeans? I'm in. Use this handy currecny converter if you want to be sure.
The choices are fantastic. And if they don't fit, returns are free, which is always nice. Eight pages of options! And it doesn't end with jeans because, of course, they also sell bathing suits, lingerie, dresses, shoes... It's an online mall for plus size fashion (up to size 36). It makes me so happy.
Bonus on the shoes -- they do carry wide calf boots. 55 pages of them. Now that's not easy to find. Granted, harder to buy online, but totally worth mentioning. I should also recognize their use of models of ALL ages and sizes. Lovely to see.
I am sure there is some kind of pun I am missing out on. As to why British currency is called the POUND, but it escapes me right now.
It is pretty likely my credit card will find a dent in it today.
Also, if it interests you, you can read Marisota's blog here.

Go forth and shop, my friends. Let me know if you find a Marisota gem!
