22 Things Only Curvy Girls Will Understand

We all know that women come in different shapes and sizes, and not everyone has the skinny legs or handful-size boobs that the stick-figure mannequins have. Some of us have thighs, jugs, and some boo-tay.

For those of you who are luscious and curvy, you’ve learned to dress for your body, instead of changing your body for the clothes. You know the struggle all too well:

  1. The high-waisted jean shorts trend wasn’t made for your body…
  2. Your butt cheeks are just not having it.
  3. You have a love/hate relationship with Spanx.
  4. There is an actual dance required when you put on tight pants.
  5. There may or may not be casualties…
  6. But everyone better get the fuck out the way.
  7. You don’t even look at jeans that don’t have stretch in them.
  8. You can’t stand items that are one size fits all
  9. LIES. ALL LIES.
  10. Rips or holes in the crotch of pants…pretty standard.
  11. When you run to catch the subway, you have to hold your boobs.
  12. A strapless dress requires so many adjustments throughout the night, it’s almost not worth it.
  13. The casual hand-in-bra-to-fix-cleavage move…
  14. Yeah, you invented that shit.
  15. You can make a conservative top look like a sexpot top…unintentionally.
  16. And you’ve popped a button before.
  17. In the summer, baby powder is your best friend…
  18. You know why.
  19. A flowy dress without a waistline doesn’t do good things for you.
  20. And when someone asks what size pants you wear…
  21. Your answer…
  22. “LEGGINGS.”
