hello

hey y’all! i haven’t talked about it much publicly, but for all of january and a bit of december and february, i was knocked out with a truly gnarly sinus infection and the worst bout of burnout i’ve ever experienced.

between that and the store getting royally screwed over by multiple factors at the end of last year, things are pretty rough right now. i’ll go into this more some time later, but the TLDR is that the majority of the garments we were supposed to have in stock for the holiday season sales were so late they only got ready for sale in the past few weeks.

i know a lot of people are struggling right now everywhere and frankly with ICE still very active in my city it feels incredibly selfish to ask for help when i know others have it much worse, but i’m not really sure what else to do. we have a lot of bills due and thanks to receiving the bulk of our inventory four months late, we don’t have the money to pay them. but we have a lot of things in stock now and it would mean the absolute world if y’all would share this.

the clothing in my store is made with certified ethical labor and is designed by a queer, neurodivergent three person team. we carry sizes S-6X in some garments and XS-8X in others. we specialize in mid- and plus-size clothing and pride ourselves in doing extensive fit tests to make sure our clothes fit properly—that we consider and accomodate things many clothing retailers forget, like the curvature of a belly causing shirts and dresses to ride shorter, like sleeves and necklines needing to be widened, like thighs and fupas existing. and our clothes have real, usable pockets.

we ship domestically from the US and UK!

as a hail mary we’ll be running a sale next week, but some items are very low in stock and expected to sell out on the first day.

thank you in advance for your help!

Even without the petticoat the skirt is voluminous and sits well against my body! I bought a 4X and it fits perfectly, and goes well with my fun bandanas and the shawl I crocheted!

The library. Please let that sink in.

They've pulled weapons on legal observers and physically attacked them. They're threatening teenagers and children with death. One woman told a story at my, again, affluent, majority white suburban town's city council meeting this week of being shoved from behind so hard that she fell down by an ICE agent, who then said to her, "Stop touching me." A man, in tears and begging for our city government to do something to help our neighbors, described having a baton pulled on him. They're luring people out of their workplaces with lies about "hitting someone's car in the parking lot" and then abducting them. Citizens and legal residents are being detained. People are being racially profiled and snatched. A teenager (a US citizen) working at Target got dragged out and shoved in a car, then dumped a mile away in a Wal-mart parking lot, beaten up and crying. And all of this is after they murdered Renee Good.

I don't emphasize the demographics of my particular suburb to say "but this shouldn't be happening here, we have money!" but to illustrate that the Trump administration has declared war on a US state. Even if you stick your head in the sand because you're white and won't be directly targeted, ICE is running traffic lights, speeding, tearing the wrong way on one way streets, and causing nasty accidents because they think they're above the law. They think it doesn't matter who they hurt or kill, because they're being told straight from the top that they can do whatever they want to whoever they want.

It's time for the passing year!

✨🌟✨Happy new year!!✨🌟✨

Wishing you the best as always, health and success for you through 2026!

COMMERCIAL bots suck.

This post is important. This is a link to the family of my fiancee Farah. I told her that many foreign friends trust me, but it was too late. I told her that if she knew me before, I would have helped her strongly. I told her that I trust you in supporting her 😅 In principle, she is an artist and she was excellent at her university and many of her paintings were attached to her university.

She also takes care of two beautiful cats (chocolate, tanka ) and was with them throughout the war and displacement, but she is not very lucky. She was able to create a donation campaign link a short time ago and could not collect a lot of money on it, kالآن She takes care of her family, her cats and herself and could not complete her university due to lack of money.
