Plus Size? Yes please!

One tough thing about coming back to Singapore was the lack of good quality, stylish and age-appropriate clothes for my size. The majority of people here are skinny, size 0 skinny, and most retailers only stock for those sizes. When I do find clothes my size, more often than not, they are more suited for “aunties”, being baggy, old-fashioned, and definitely not flattering. It got so difficult once when I was looking for a good business suit, that it took 3 days, and hours and hours of walking and frustration before I found a place that sold American plus sized suits that made me happy to wear them, instead of feeling frumpy.

So it was almost like a miracle when I found this tiny boutique that not only sold beautiful clothes my size, but also designed and made them just for our body types! For once in Singapore, the ladies behind this store understood the predicament of women like me and solved our problems! Their clothings are soooo beautiful and gorgeous, that even skinny women wanna wear them… but too bad! You’re too small! (I can’t believe that I can say that! It’s usually, “you’re too big!” or the ruder sales ladies will say, “you’re too fat.”)

Anyway, if you want cute, fashionable, good quality clothes in Singapore, check them out at:

ATTITUDE PLUS BOUTIQUE
Marina Square #03-232

Their stock is limited, but they are expanding. So I always make sure to check them out once in a few months to grab their new stock while they last.
