The Toast: Fat, Broke, and Stylish: How Not to Walk Around Naked.
The first rule of Fat, Broke, and Stylish Club is that there are no rules. Well, there are some rules. There are nudity laws, and things having to do with hygiene. But any rule that tells you a certain kind of clothing is forbidden for your body type is simply preposterous and should be treated with the same amused incredulity you normally reserve for pyramid schemes.

And I ADORE your owl shoes. ♥

And the owl shoes are teh bomb. They're Alegrias, and super comfortable. They come in a ton of colors and styles. And work with my orthotics, bonus! The owls were actually on sale, but I love them!
