Some lovely items, but that final sequinned dress is an absolute showstopper! The skirt is also very nice for a holiday.
Thank you, Pamela! I really like the sequin, too!!
Well, the first two dresses are spot on. The black pantsuit is cute on you. The sequin dress... FIRE! Girl it is smoking on you 😍
I think the red top and the wrap dress was beautiful on you.
I loved the wrap dress but my favorite was the dance with Lulu.
Thank you, Rita!! Lulu is better than any outfit ❤️❤️🐾
The black sparkly dress looks amazing on you!
Thank you so much!
That second dress (the blue one) and the sequin dress looked amazing on you! Such fun things to try on!
That black dress looks really nice on you
Thank you, Debbie!
My favorite is the sequin dress. Marlene
Thank you, Marlene!
Your doggie is the cutest. & You too 🐕 💜
Thank you!
The burnt orange Grecian dress and the black jumpsuit are both fabulous. They are my favorites by far!
The first burnt orange dress was a YES and so was the black sequined dress. You came out in that and I said "wow", it just fit so well. What I saw on the screen , the colors were changing as you moved, it did not look all black.
I LOVE the halter glitter dress.
Thank you!! Me, too!
Now, you may not have a place to wear that Sequin Maxi dress now, but sister.... that should go directly into your closet for some special occasion! It looks great on you!! The first 2 dresses are so comfy looking and who doesn't love pockets? I mean... seriously! I so enjoy your videos! Thanks for sharing!
I love the sequin dress on you. It really slimmed you down & you looked so beautiful in it.
Totally agree with your choices and your least favorite. The black jumpsuit really looked fabulous!
Thank you, Shelley!
OMG!! The sequin dress!! Wowser!
The last dress looks amazing on you ….. and the 1st few dresses
l would agree with you on your choices. I actually liked how most of them looked on you (except for that leopard print). I enjoy your videos and appreciate all the work you put into them. And that black sequined dress looked absolutely gorgeous on you, not that you need it. LOL
The sequin dress looks stunning on you! It would work for a summer outside dinner in a vacation place... Anyway, you look good on almost everything you tried today.
You bring sunshine into my cloudy days. I’m glad LuLu joined you today. ❤️🤗
Thank you, Marianne! Oh my goodness, I was filming by my back door last night and Lulu was just in and out and in and out! She is such a sweetheart and a mess rolled into one!
Red top looks great on you!
Oh thank you!
Good Morning Mr. Darcy! I love how you narrate everything. Each piece of clothing have a little story to tell.
Thank you, Yvonne! Mr. Darcy bids you a goodnight!!
You look fabulous in the wrap dress and the sequin dress!!
I loved the rust colored dress and the white top with neck detail the best. Nice choices all around
Blue dress suits you best! Pretty!❤ Love the sequined dress!🤗
I totally agree….the blue gauzy one is a great color on you! And I totally love the sequins! ❤❤
Thank you, Vicki!!
I liked the burnt orange. The red dolman top looked great on you! I need pockets in my job, because I have to care keys, so this content is helpful. Great video.
Thank you so much
Great show. Loved the blue dress, black jumpsuit and the purple dress. Just wear a tank top underneath so you are covered. Thank you for making us plus size women feel good about ourselves and that we deserve to wear nice clothes too. 😊
Love the last one.
The black jumpsuit looks phenomenal on you , the best one you've shown us yet!!!! Can't wait for the next vlog Meridith xxx
Thank you, Vicki!!
Loved this video. Look forward to seeing your comments on all the dresses. I really liked the black jumpsuit
Thank you!! I always appreciate you taking the time to comment!
The sparkle dress is giving Jessica Rabbit vibes. Does it come in red?? lol It's STUNNING on you. You and hubby need to find an excuse to wear it out lol. Loved the black jumpsuit on you too. The orange skirt would be great for vacay. I love both of the first dresses but I think I like the cut on the first one more. BUT the color on the second compliments your skin tone so well. I LOVE your personality and your style. Your videos are always so much fun to watch!
Hi, Meredith, The slit on the second dress looked torn because the liner wasn't attached at the slit. I think your idea of sewing the slit higher would probably solve the problem.
My favourite is the black jumpsuit, definitely.
You picked out some nice items. My favorite was the wrap dress.
You really suit the first two dresses, the black pant suit and the purple dress lovely.
The sequin dress...wow!
Thank you so much, Susan! I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to let me know your thoughts!
Your videos are very helpful. They introduced me to new sites. When you describe things can talk about sleeve openings. I find they can be an issue on long and 3/4 sleeve tops or blouses
Love the purple dress!
Slits are easy enough to stitch to make smaller.
I have done in a few dresses, I am alright with a slit, but sometimes they are just too deep!!
Lace camisole or lace bralette under any of these low cut options. A brooch would add a little bling to a closed plunge neckline
Okay…
Love the sequined dress! It looks amazing on you.
The black jumpsuit was super pretty! I think that my favorite jumpsuit of all that I’ve seen on you. Definitely have to keep that! And you could absolutely wear that to the office with a cami or tank top underneath.
The first two dresses were great! The blueish one is a really flattering color, so I might like it just a tad more 🤔.
I be like the short black dress, but you didn’t love it. So, enough said.
The orange skirt was so cute! I’m 5’2, so it’s hard for me to wear stuff like that without it dragging the ground. But it was a great length for you!
The two dolman tops were both nice, and one was even red! 😁
And the wrap dress was a terrific fit and color. Very flattering.
I wasn’t crazy about the printed jumpsuit. I was getting a little Dalmatians cosplay vibe from that one. 🤭
Thanks for another fun video! (And keep the sequined gown. You don’t ALWAYS need to be practical)
The orange skirt partnered with the white top is super snazzy, i imagine wearing that to a warm Mediterranean vacation. But i loved the teal colour of the second dress, but the shape and length of the first orange dress looked very comfy. Amazing haul!
Thank you so much! That is what I thought when I initially saw the skirt!
The orange skirt is SO flattering on you! The entire outfit is so great! The sequin dress is obviously gorgeous!
Ohhh, the Crisscross Dress is in my favorite colour and really mine. The black Jumpsuit fits you the best. And the Halter Sequin dress is sooooo elegant, you look georgeouse in it. I love your videos so much because you show us dresses for Rubensgirls. I enjoy every minute with you! Greetings from Austria
I loved the burnt orange when on you and the black jumpsuit they were very flattering on you. But it's how you feel in them that's important.
I completely agree on how you feel being the most important!
The sequined gown is absolutely stunning on you. I'd keep it and search for events to which to wear it! 🤣 My jumpsuit days are over...I go to the bathroom too often for that now. In my opinion, the notion of struggling with them in public bathrooms is straight out of a horror movie 😱
First dress I love it. At first I thought you said the first 2 were Goddie and I finally heard Gauzie. Sorry heard of hearing. Second dress is beautiful. And OK to wear to work add cardigan. WOW three in a row! You may need to buy a new bra for these outfits, a plunging bra. Not crazy about dolman it doesn’t fit quite right everything else looked so flattering. Here comes the judge…. White on the inside means it’s sublimated, heat transferred on polyester cheap. Yes. To burgundy,you love it. Skirt is cute top too. Ok back to pretty dresses! Much love and fun! I’m finally caught up, I’ve been watching older vlogs. I find that even watching ones I’ve already watched can be fun 😊
The sequins long dress was so cute and I really liked the orange skirt
The tag on the bottom of the dresses and tops should be on your left side when you put it on. Then you’ll always know which side is the front 😊
Ooh, I never knew that- thank you so much!!!
The sequin black dress looks FANTASTIC on u
Thank you!
The last dress! Love it! Love the first two too and the first jumpsuit. Good haul! I’d love a jumpsuit like that.
For the purple wrap dress, throw a slip under it, a simple tube style would cover all bases.
For lower cut neck lines and high cut slits, sew them shut! If you don't sew, a seamstress or tailor can do those alterations very quickly for almost no money. If you're in a pinch and need it done immediately, a few safety pins applied parallel to the seam will close it up, fashion tape works if the seam isn't going to be pulled too much.
The coverup skirt is adorable! And yes, the top is really versatile.
The red top looks good!! And gotta love a good soft piece of clothing!
I agree with your favourites. The sequinned gown looks amazing on you!
Thank you, Stella!
I love flowy gauze dresses in the summer time.
Beautiful haul!!! I agreed to your ranking!!! I always love your videos!
Love the blue dress and the black pantsuit. I think I need them in my closet! Thank you for your videos show plus size ladies don’t have to wear moo-moos! You are beautiful!
Thank you, Mary! We have so many awesome options available (but they are harder to find!)
I like the first 3, but would def need to tack a lace panel or something on the front for more coverage. Love how they look and flow on you though. They look extremely comfy cozy too.
Ok I loved the purple dress and the sequin dress for New Year’s Eve. I like the UT color midi and the red blouse but I would size up because I think the dolmans should look a little oversized. I would order the black jumpsuit in the royal blue. Definitely pass on the leopard jumpsuit and the body con dress. That dress wasn’t bad but compared to the purple it doesn’t compare. I didn’t care for the orange skirt and the white tee was ok. 😊😊😊😊😊
Lovely clothes. The dresses were great. I'm not a jumpsuit gal, but you look great! And that gown...WOW!!!
Love the twinkle lights sequin dress! It would be perfect for a dressed-to-the-nines Christmas event or a black-tie 4th of July celebration on a yacht - cue Carly Simon's You're So Vain. 🎶The dress looked gorgeous on you and it would rival the fireworks! 🎆When you mentioned the dress length was perfect on you at 5'10", I realized it would be eight inches too long on me. I'd have to model it on a ladder! 🤣I liked the first flowy dress but in the second blue dress color. The black jumpsuit looked fab on you, too!
Black jumpsuit possibly turn it around one side was cut higher
Thank you, I’ll try that this weekend!
The leopard print looks like it's too short. Love the first two dresses! The wrap dress is sexy! And WOW that sequinned dress! Damn, Meredith! One thing I wonder about is how do you find jumpsuits that are long enough in the torso? I'm almost 5'10" and I can never stand up straight!
Hi Meredith I pick same favorites as you did. The sequin dress look Fabulous on you, the color, the fit. Find somewhere to wear it😅. Love your videos, all of them.❤
❤😊 I’ve never heard of CurveSoul but I’m loving what you’ve chosen!! Hint for your low necked garments: Do u have a seamstress friend/shop? Bridal shops r THE best people to ask for referrals. That navy jump suit would be easy to add a gorgeous, sophisticated piece of chiffon or wearable lace in the same shade of blue. Soma also has some much lower yet fuller coverage bras for low cut clothes. I’m not real comfy that way so the seamstress would be for me. Much better than trying to stitch it shut, garment tape it, etc.
💦 I have always loved the art of laundry from start to finish!! 😊 With anything gauze, I suggest using the delicate cycle, cool or cold water, and only washing extra- lightweight clothing with it. U r spot on w drying on low heat for just about 20 minutes! Then lay it out on a body size or beach towels to fully dry.
Suzan, thank you so much for the laundry tips- I need all of the help I can get in that department!!
My mom used to own a pattern making/sewing company. She made smocked dresses. She is retired now, I am going to ask her if she can help me with that this weekend.
Meredith!! You can do dishes in that stunning sequin evening gown! 😂❤
I love that idea!!! My new dish-dress!!!
That sequined dress is stunning! The halter style is feminine without being fussy. It is very becoming on you. Come up with an event and wear it!
Thank you- I am always on the hunt for a good event! I really think halters are growing on me!
The purple dress is very flattering. Did not like the leopard print jumpsuit. I liked the red top and the sequin dress. I also thought you really looked great in the black jumpsuit.
Bra looks fine on the first one.
I always wash stuff and dry almost everything in the dryer. My theory is that if it shrinks then it needs a new home.
That is exactly my theory! It has to be a pretty dang special garment for me to dry clean!
I mostly agree with your ratings, except for the wrap dress. That dress looked gorgeous on you, and I also really appreciated the sleeve length on that one!!! I have chunky upper arms with a weird little fat roll at my elbow like an extremely overfed 9 month baby 😂 I definitely think it needs to move up toward the very top of your list. And for what it's worth, I'd buy that sequin dress just to feel amazing while I stay home and watch Netflix
I love the sequin dress for Netflix!!!
Do you think you would consider getting your colors done? I think you look beautiful in so many of these dresses, especially the first one. I like the color of the second dress the blue one, but the first dress fit you very nicely I think even better than the second one.
I have had several people recommend that I get my colors done- I’m going to look into it- I have done it with an app, but I think there are professionals out there who do it!
Love the video. I would love to see you do a color analysis video ❤
I really need to do one- I will look for someone who does it!!
@@BigonStyle oh wow!!! I’m so excited!!! Thank you
The wrap dress looks stunning on you!
But does it have pockets?
the wrap dress is igigi or kiyonna knock off. edited to add: its super cute though! also adored the burnt orange & black bling full length - gorgeous!
I’m going to have to look up those brands, those were my favorite pieces
I agree with you totally! Those first two dresses are so pretty and flirty. And the wrap dress is very nice. My least favorite by far is the leopard print jumpsuit. The print has a pattern to it that creates a band of smaller spots that causes an awkward look. And I love the sparkles!! As always, I'm wearing my "Meredith makes me smile" face. Love ya!!!
Those dresses look so good on a plus size body.
For a plus size store, they have an odd take on sleeves. The first dresses are totally open on the side, the next shirt is a bat sleeve, the black jumpsuit has weird over-sized sleeves and the white one has no sleeves... These are not for me. (I you ever have had under arm chafeing, you know what I mean.) The sequin maxi is gorgeous, though!
Wrap dress I would call mulberry. If you’ve ever seen mulberry stains, you’ll know.
It's Aubergine Colour!
Aubergine! Thank you! Purple did not feel right!
Personally I hate jumpsuits but it is pretty!! Definitely don’t look nekkid. Cami under to fill the gap? And you just said that! 😂
Ha!! I love it - great minds think alike!
Sometimes you need to size up. It doesn't make you a bigger size. Don't pay so much attention to the size number, go by the garment measurements. Sizing is all over the place and ever increasingly so, with as many different clothing manufacturers who have their own idea of sizing as there are. It does nobody any favours if they stick rigidly to "their" size and the item ends up sticking rigidly to their bumpy parts, making them look bigger than they really are. A good fit is a bigger boost than a smaller number on the label.😊
I loved the first orange? or rust colored dress. It looked beautiful on you. The light blue dress that came next, road up on you at the waist and made everything look off. I liked the sparkly dress, but how would you clean it? Probably dry cleaners which I don't do.
I wonder that on sequin dresses! It has to be something super special for me to dry clean!!
I’m new to your channel but I have watched a few of your videos and really enjoy your presentation. Just wondering if you have any thoughts on this. After years of dieting I get that we use phrases like “this makes you look thinner.” I’m trying to make peace with my body and have decided no more dieting. There is much more to the story but I want to stop thinking in terms of looking thinner. It seems like most plus size influencers talk about weight loss. I want my clothes to look flattering and feel good. But if it’s not slimming but I like it I’m going to wear it. Just curious if you have any thoughts. Thanks for your channel. It’s so much fun!
Hey, Grace- first off, hugs to you for taking the time and caring enough about yourself and me to send this message. I really appreciate you voicing that and boy do I have thoughts! I have also dieted since childhood and I am personally in this nuanced place of ‘finding things that make me feel beautiful right where I am’ (and that can mean so many different things!) but also working on losing weight.
My reasons for losing weight are very broad, but my chief concern is my health- I am diabetic and know that weight loss is something I need to keep my A1C in line.
With that said, I can understand how associating ‘looking thinner’ to ‘feeling beautiful’ is cultural and can be harmful. I also have had amazing viewers on here tell me that they have ‘lost the weight’ but still suffer with body issues- hating extra skin, flappy arms, etc. I know that weight loss is not the answer to being happy. I love myself despite wanting to change things about myself. I think both things can exist at the same time.
I commend you for taking your mental health into your own hands. I will make a solid effort to be more careful with my language, but I do want to assure you that I would never want my content or words to negatively affect you.
Grace, thank you for the comment and for watching my channel.
LOVE the blue color. I never dry clean anything except 100% wool. I do NOT put in the dryer, though. You can really pop some color with a pretty scarf under those very deep v necks. Really don't like that black ruched dress. Leopard jumpsuit does look too short. The purple dress is actually pretty. What happens when you sit down or a stiff breeze. Hate the orange skirt. Makes your stomach look massive. Would never wear that top with it.
May I suggest, as you have my body shape as I do, same size almost inch for inch. And, you know how dresses do not transplant in our bodies. Please try LIGHT IN THE BOX. The6 have some cutting edge fashion. I like Jo’s but, we’ve seen you do it a couple of times. It’s getting wedding season, so folks like you and me, need guest dresses.
Please?
I just wrote them to see if they would work with me, if they don’t respond, I’ll place an order! Thank you for the suggestion!
❤ I don’t think your links are working. When I press on them, I go to the same dress, not different pieces
Oh no! I will check- thank you!
Sorry Meredith, I didn't like anything this go round.
Maxine, that is A-OK!! I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to give me feedback!
The orange skirt outfit is not flattering . It looks like an ice cream cone gone wrong. The wrap dress was gorgeous on you.
Ha!! Thank you Donna! I appreciate your feedback and fun analogy!
Doesn’t your husband think the burnt orange dress is upsetting.
Hahaha! Those Aggies can be pretty territorial! He will be alright with it in the context of niece-support only 🤣
I love your channel so much!❤❤
Thank you, Stephanie ❤️❤️
Love the first dress. Like the back on it better than the blue. LoL on the cardigan camisole. You have to move a blouse that mashes you want to pet yourself! ❤
Funny that when you put your hands on Your hips in that black dress at the very end, the silhouette was magnificent!
I’d pass on the leopard print too. I wouldn’t want a jumpsuit as pajamas even though it does give pajama vibes to me. . Though you’re much younger than me and don’t have to do 4 am bathroom runs. 😂
Wrap dresses were a thing decades ago. I had a Diane von Fürstenberg wrap dress in the very early 80s. I love yours and loved mine too.
I’d love the skirt over a swimsuit! At the Y I always wrap a towel around my hips as I walk to and from the locker room. This would definitely work though the fabric might not work well when wet. 😊
That sequin dress looks great! Party time!
Great haul. I agree with your impressions with each outfit. I've never worn a jumpsuit but that black one almost makes me want to try. Loooove the sequence dress!
That you could get it on and off on your own was a huge selling point! I really loved the wide legs, but I would want something to cover my bra!! I’m keeping the black for sure!
You can buy little plackets that can fill in the V, they just attach to your bra. It looks like you're wearing a camisole without adding an extra layer.
Thank you, Rachel! I just put some in my Amazon cart! I really appreciate you pointing me to them!
Oh! No pockets?! Eh. Maybe in a size up on the leopard jumpsuit. It looks good but more of a staying at home and having folx in kind of way if that makes sense. And again, you say what I’m typing. Honestly? PJs was my first thought! As in what cute pjs!
Love burnt orange dress except when you raised your arms, I might have been worried my bra would have been showing? But that color is GORG on you. The teal is also pretty, but I think the first dress's cut was better. The last dress--you need that one!!! SO pretty! the black jumpsuit was nice, too.
That’s a big no from me on the leopard. The Dolman dresses are very pretty. Maybe even the jumpsuit, but I’m with you on the bathroom issue.
Very fun haul! I got 2 of the dolman style shirts! Also, thank you for the sweet discount code. I was able to get a total of 7 items for a little over $100. Have to love that. Also, Lulu needs her own channel. I said what I said haha. Much love to you, Meredith!
Loved you in the first two dresses, the plain jumpsuit and the long evening dress. Your dog looks adorable all clipped and ready for summer. Benjamin is now just 8 months and his adult fur is coming through and causing some problems.His grey coat on his back and tail is really thick and wavy and is not full of knots. However the white on his head, chest, belly and front legs is full of matted hair and knots. My husband bought a swim cap and covers it with doggy peanut butter to distract Benjamin whilst he cuts out the matted fur.We have clippers but it is difficult to use them as he puts up a fight.We will just take our time so he doesn't get traumatised so we have to fight with him all his life. The joys of Old English Sheepdog ownership. He is a gorgeous boy though and so good natured. Wendy
The little black dress, I don’t know. I think it’s something about the way it fits around and under the bust. Not bad but I wouldn’t pull it off the hanger to wear.
Whaw! While I did not really anything from the previous haul Insure like most of this haul. Your choices are my choises too. The black jumpsuit is amazing. I loved the last dress too but would add a chiffin wrap to it. Also loved the first two dresses and you looked real goos in the plum wrap dress. I don’t care for the orange skirt but did like the red and white top. Leopard jumpsuit was hidious ( to short in the body part and too much leopard)and so was the short black dress. But overall one of your best hauls!
The sequin dress looked fantastic on you. Keep it for a special occasion. The black jumpsuit was perfect and so was the rust dress. For deep v-necks you can take a piece of fabric and add snaps to hold fabric in place across the opening to perfectly cover cleavage and make the neckline work appropriate. The shadows in the back were a bit distracting, but you were great.
