Bonus: Plus-Sized Models

Plus-sized clothing is finally beginning to catch up with timely trends. And thank god for that. And I totally want a poncho. Why is it that they look so ridiculous on me?

Big Fat Deal

So what's the Big Fat Deal? Well, at the risk of getting all mission-statementy, I think it's important to call attention to issues of weight in the media, pop culture, and society. If we can convince at least one teenage girl that Ashley Olsen isn't "the fat twin," we will have done our job.
