Honestly, it really just comes down to how helpful the clerk is at the counter. I’ve had all sorts of things tucked inside my envelopes before, but when I was the one sending stuff out, they wouldn't even let me include a tiny little note, let alone anything else.

Just type the full number into the post on Reddit, and it'll show you where it was sent from.

Jerry Smith91 said:Hey everyone! Where can I pick up plus-size clothing here in the city—and please, don't suggest Ulla Pompken. In my opinion, it’s overpriced and just plain tacky.

It used to be easy to find those little boutiques scattered around town, but now? It feels like they’ve all vanished into thin air.

Mango doesn't carry larger sizes in-store—it's online-only. I tried ordering from them and was beyond disappointed; the fabric is paper-thin and practically see-through. To top it off, I had to shell out about $10 in shipping just to send it back. The sizing is all over the place too—either huge or way too big—and honestly, the quality of the stuff they ship out seems much worse than what you see on the racks in their physical stores.

Where can I find decent office wear that I can actually try on in person before buying?

Mango has a Violeta line for plus sizes online starting from size 14 and up. I'm not sure what you mean by "huge" sizes—are the cuts just too baggy? An EU 48 is basically a US 16. They actually have some lovely pieces for work, like classic trousers, dresses, and blouses... I sit right on the line between regular Mango and Mango Violeta, and for years now, I've felt the Violeta line has much better quality. I know you can't try it on in person, but maybe check Poshmark? You can often find items with the tags still on, they list the measurements in inches, and the prices are pretty fair.

Mhm. https://www.usps.com/resources/price-lists.page

Is there a link somewhere where I can read more about this?

According to what they're saying at FedEx, this rule should start kicking in on February 1st of this year.

It’s not super formal, but this is the vibe I’d go for: https://shop.mango.com/hr/plus-size-..._57035776.html

No problem. 🙂 Using Asso is the easiest way because the return is free and there's zero hassle—just drop it off at your local HP service center and you're done. 🙂

I haven't bothered looking at their athletic wear—usually, those standard cuts don't offer much more than a C cup anyway. So, what you're saying is—the actual sports bras actually provide better coverage?

That's too bad :/

Mark Bishop2 said:If I’m allowed to post this here, I have a pair of jeans from the Mango Violet collection up for grabs. They still have the tags on them. My mom tried them on and they’re way too big for her, so I'm letting them go if anyone's interested (size 14, high-waisted denim).

I think selling stuff isn't allowed here. You should list them on Poshmark or something, like 🙂

Check out H&M plus size 🙂

No, unfortunately.

I don't think it's even worth hunting through stores that just have terrible or mediocre selections. Nowadays, almost all the "modern" brands have their own plus-size departments with massive variety. For instance, during the sales—which happen pretty often—Mango Violeta has trousers starting from $33, ranging from business to casual styles. Tops, blouses, sweaters up to $50, coats around $300-$$133, and so on. Plus, you can find tons of stuff on Poshmark that’s completely brand new and even cheaper than at Mango.

Their clothes are high quality, colors don't fade, and when they have sales, they have a good mix of both winter and summer items.

Sophia Garcia13 said:As I get older, my lactose intolerance is getting worse.

For those of you dealing with this, which specific types of yogurt and cheese—brands included—can I actually eat without issues?

Mu lactose-free yogurt, 1.6% fat, 500g container, made by Dairy Farmers of America. It’s always in stock at Target, $2.75. I've been buying it for years, and the bad news is it's never on sale. They used to carry it at Kroger, but they don't anymore.

When it comes to cheese, stick to hard cheeses like aged cheddar or parmesan. You'll have fewer issues with those than soft ones, like Cheddar. The same goes for frozen pizzas or lasagna—they're usually loaded with cheap Cheddar that acts like a laxative and leaves you bloated and cramping for two days.

If you really crave something with lactose or find yourself at a birthday party, celebration, or wedding where you just can't resist the food, I recommend these tablets. The pack comes with 90 capsules, enough for 90 lactose-heavy meals. They work on the lactose, milk proteins, and fats. Prices vary, but right now they are $29 including shipping to the US.

The instructions say one capsule is equivalent to one glass of milk. In my case, since I'm totally intolerant, it's not quite that much, but it works great for a small amount of cream, milk, or yogurt, or maybe a meal with cream sauce. Same thing applies to a cappuccino, a small pudding, etc.

Scott Patel53, if you ever need anything from the H&M plus size line, you can always just order through the American site; it usually shows up at your door in about 3-4 days. 🙂

I'm at Walmart!

It’s strange that this thread hasn't seen any activity in two years, especially since this issue seems to be getting more common. Much like Michael Harris7, my digestive issues have definitely worsened as I've gotten older. It's reached a point where even a tiny bit of milk, yogurt, or anything creamy sends me running to the restroom within minutes. Between the cramps, bloating, and general discomfort, it pretty much ruins my entire day.

I’ve tried various lactose-free milk options, but honestly, they don't always seem 100% lactose-free.😠 For instance, I had just as much trouble with the lactose-free versions from Meggla or the organic brands as I did with regular milk, and even the store brand at Walmart didn't help much.

On a brighter note, I recently discovered the free-form dairy-free and gluten-free products at Walmart. Their Pilos milk and hazelnut spread are actually great.👍

All the ModCloth shipping is just SAD...

I'm honestly so happy. I end up ordering something every single month because I’m just that obsessed with their material quality and style. I can't praise them enough.

frozenangler87 said:Hey, what's up!

Anyone here ever picked anything up from Next? I was wondering what their numbers are looking like lately... just curious if they're actually legit or what.
There's no metric system here, just standard numbers... and I honestly have no clue how to convert them. I guess I'm just stuck.

Totally reliable, go ahead and order. They'll have it at your door in 3 days. 👍

Here you go. 🙂 Here's the link: http://www.yoursclothing.com/deliver...rnational=true

A bunch of girls shared their experiences, and I don't recall seeing a single negative one. 👍
