These are some photos from last week’s launch event of Khloe Kardashian’s Good American denim line. I guess she’s wearing jeans from the line, although if these are the best example, I’m not sure Good American is going to sell very well. As you can see from the Pinocchio Butt shot (at the end of the post), Khloe seems to have already gotten her jeans altered to fit her weird, plastic Sad Doll proportions. Which sort of defeats the purpose of making a denim line for every size, and then making that the selling point? Khloe chatted with People Mag about why she decided to do this line and how she used to feel “fat shamed.”
Khloé Kardashian‘s Good American denim line is a total passion project for the star — and it’s been her dream for the past decade. The self-professed “denim junkie” tells PeopleStyle that she always loved jeans but they weren’t always “flattering” on her.
“When I was bigger, a lot of places didn’t carry my size,” Khloé shares in an exclusive interview in this week’s issue of PEOPLE. “I was a 30 or 31 at the time. I didn’t think that was astronomical sizing but people went, ‘Uh! What size are you? Oh we don’t have that here but we can order it.’ I was like, ‘Screw you, you just made me feel like s—.’ And that’s how a lot of women feel. My sisters would wear cute denim, and I felt so fat-shamed. It was important for me to make something women feel good in. It’s a positive, empowering project.”
And she succeeded. Good American, which the star designed with industry vet Emma Grede, offers 20 “trendy, cool and edgy” styles ranging from sizes 0 to 24. The campaign enlists women of all body types as models and delivers a strong message to embrace your curves.
“At DASH, our store, I would always say, ‘God I really want to start carrying larger sizes,’ and it’s harder for a boutique,” Khloé says. “If we owned department stores it would be different, but now I am finally happy I am able to have something to offer real woman.”
Again with the “real woman” bulls—t. I am Khloe’s target demo and even I’m not buying the “real woman” thing. Women who are size 2 are just as real as women who are size 16. Also, I guess Khloe is using European sizing or waist-measurement sizing when she says she was a “30 or 31.” That sounds like her waist measurement, not her American-sizing size. Because she was never a SIZE 30, but she probably had a waist larger than 30 at some point before she became a gym rat. As for saying she felt “fat shamed” because her sisters wore smaller sizes and because stores didn’t carry her size… is that really an example of fat-shaming? I’m really asking. Khloe has absolutely been fat-shamed in her life and I’m not negating her experience, I just don’t think this was the best example of “fat shaming.”
Also: Khloe has learned nothing from Kim’s social media flossing. Khloe posted this IG of her diamonds, along with her boyfriend’s bling.

There are few things more humiliating than asking a shop assistant if they have anything in the store in your size, and getting told no. Especially when it is a fancy store – we don’t do fancy in your size hunny, you just are not our kind of chick!
It will only be hurtful if that’s your sore spot. A shop assistant is not shaming you by saying “Nope, nothing this size in our magazine”. You might be feeling ashamed sure but it’s not the shop’s fault.
qw, society makes sure that being big is most women’s sore spot. I’m 5’10” and a size 40 (in South Africa, have no idea what that would be in the US), and I’ve felt like a freak since my teenage years – never even been particularly overweight, just big across the bum and tall. And yeah, when they don’t even make clothes for you, the message really is quite clear – you’re a freak, we wish you didn’t even exist, we don’t want you making our brand look bad by wearing our clothes, go away fatty fatster, we wouldn’t clothe you if you paid us (literally).
Especially fun when the message is delivered by a little tiny sales person. Quite frankly, there are a hell of a lot of stores I won’t even try to go into any more, and I think its a big part of the reason I don’t enjoy shopping for clothes.
Except, it kind of IS the shop’s fault when they refuse to carry larger sizes because that’s. It in keeping with the “image” they wish to project…
It’s the shops loss in revenue by not carrying larger sizes. The store owners are allowed to choose what they do and don’t provide, and I really don’t think it’s fat shaming. It can be embarrassing but they aren’t actively shaming you for being a different size.
Ultimately shops carry what sells well, and are there to turn profit. They’re not gonna order a gazillion of pants in sizes that wouldn’t sell well. I find it hilarious that she’s complaining at a lack of shops carrying her size while also admitting she herself didn’t sell bigger sizes in HER OWN SHOP. “It’s harder for a boutique” is a code for “It wouldn’t sell well and I have no interest in investing money badly just to make some of our customers feel good”. Which is something that applies to every other shop but apparently they are supposed to only care about her feelings and not their profit.
I just love “shops don’t carry sizes that don’t sell” arguments. Meanwhile the plus-size market is 18 Billion Dollars in US and growing. So, NO shops don´t carry big sizes because they CHOOSE to!

Or when they look you up and down to determine if you will fit into their largest size. This has happened to me and it was a very bad experience.
Yeah, when they try that with me, they usually then say sure, yes, the clothes will definitely fit you, because I am tall and don’t look particularly overweight. When I was younger, I then used to let them bully me into actually trying the stuff on – for the extra humiliation of proving it doesn’t fit. Fun times.
@Cee, same. It was horrible.
There is a local shop that sells clothes I love and I would rather give a small, local business the money instead of a large department store chain. But I refuse to shop there because they don’t carry any size over a US 8, and instead of having to go through the humiliation of them ordering a larger size for me, I just go buy it at Bloomingdales instead.
For the record, I’m generally a medium or a US 10 and nothing in this shop will fit me, it’s all filled with 2’s, 4’s and XS’s. Which is unfortunate because I feel strongly about supporting locally owned shops, but in this case, nope.
This happened to me at my very first store I went into the shopping for a wedding dress with my mother-in-law and my sister-in-law. I was wearing a giant pea coat, a fluffy scarf, and big knee high boots on my 5’11 frame. the salesperson ask me my size, I told her, “ummmm, let’s try a 4 or 6” and she scoffed at me and said “oh, you are not a 4!” I was so pissed, I ripped off my coat, threw it to my sister in law, who was standing there, wide mouthed and astonished, and i grabbed the closest 4, which fit like a glove, made sure the sales person saw me sashay around in, then walked my ass out of there. What if I was a bigger size? So what? Why make a big deal to my suggested sizing? She completely judged me based on the up down head to toe glance. It happens SO OFTEN in these boutiques.
I have to agree that this happens to a lot of us, even when we’re not larger than a size 6. Hell, it happened when I was a 4! So imagine what it must be like for those above a size 10.
The only positive experience I ever had was when I walked into my favourite label, asked for a size and the saleswoman had to talk me into trying a smaller size (and she was right but I though she was taking the piss).
I have been 38-42 all my life. I don’t know the US equivalent but lets say I am a S or M in my country. I once went to this store to buy a pair of jeans. Although I am a 40 generally I have hips (hip bone, not a huge proportion in comparison to my body but it’s there ) so even if I wear size 38 or 40 in jeans the 42 stays better on me and I can move and breath. There was this girl that called me DEFORMED and said they didn’t carry “those” kind of clothes. I was with a friend who got really pissed with her. I didn’t even had the chance to say anything. The owner came and apologize to us a lot. In the end I tried the jeans which fitted me like a glove and I got a huge discount like 50%. I still have them to this day and because they are a little elastic i can still wear them even with my weight gain. Never went back there though, my friend wouldn’t allow me LOL
Beg to differ: Was in Nostrom’s Rack, asked where the size 8 was located. I was told they don’t carry plus sizes.
What?! That’s crazy.
lol oh please they carry up to 12/14 in some brands. You know they do. They misunderstood you or they only know junior sizing. Rack would be out of biz if they only carried up to 6.
I once visited a “Denim Bar” in Khloe’s home town of LA. I’d had a baby about a year before and was happy be ready to get back into jeans at all. This place was reccommended as being well-known for its great selection of jeans.
I was trying stuff on, I didn’t want skin tight, and I asked for a bigger size. I was told they “don’t carry larger sizes” and they I “could maybe try Macy’s” but that the shop girl “really doesn’t know” where a fatty like me could possibly look for my fat pants. The size I was asking for? A 28. Which is the equivalent of a size 6. She was absolutely trying to fat-shame me. It didn’t work because she was not someone I felt inferior to and I am not someone who hates myself for being a size 6. But it was astounding to me in its blatantness and my eyes were opened a little to how larger people get treated on a daily basis…
Dumb.
I’ll give her credit on this one: the jeans go up to size 24. That’s a pretty wide range and much more than most brands, which go up to size 16.
I’m a big girl and I do my research. I don’t have these issues because I know where to shop. When I was a size 12, NO ONE had any clothes because everyone was a 12.
Those jean sizes are waist inches. No account for hips but waist.
It literally makes me sick that she is dating Tristan Thompson. He WAS one of my favorite players and now the Cavs will get the curse of the Kardashians. I wish they would have an intervention with him….seriously. There are many many other ballers whose life she can ruin. Run for the hills Tristan, please!
His dad was apparently not a fan either.
And his ex girlfriend is having his baby. So he wasn’t all that “broken” up when he started dating khloe either.
@Squiggisbig, probably because he left his ex-girlfriend that’s currently 8 months pregnant with his child for Khloe.. I’d be disappointed too.
He left an 8-months-pregnant girlfriend? What a prize.
Any male who would leave his pregnant girlfriend to start a relationship with a Kardashian/Jenner is not a man. Real men provide for their families financially and emotionally. Absolutely shameful that another child will grow up without being with his or her father full time.
100. This one really bothers me since it’s a player from the Cavs. There is no excuse for leaving a pregnant woman, no matter how fat the check is “they” cut for her. He obviously has no heart which would make him a perfect fit for her. He should have a chat with Reggie Bush, Lamar and Kris Humphries. These tricks just chew them up and spit them out. I hate Tristan for what he’s done but hate her more. Reality stars think they rule the world, from Trump down to them. Can you tell I’m pissed.
Story on RadarOnLine that says he has told Khloe to keep her family away. Let’s see how long that lasts!
He seemed like such a low key guy. He’s never missed a game and the City and players love him. I was shocked when I heard he hooked up with her. I know there’s not a baller she wouldn’t be with, especially on a championship team, but it breaks my heart. I didn’t know he left his gf who is ready to have a baby. People are never what they seem to be, except for Khloe, she is exactly how she appears. I hope it ends soon and not in marriage on the show ala Lamar. Wake up Tristan…..
Her face looks beyond weird now
And her hair looks awful too.
just what I was thinking. another nose job? either way, she looks, as one of my friends used to say, like she smelled something bad. ETA: and YES! to Placebo. that “wet-look” to me is more of a “greasy/scraggly look”.
also, if you’re going to take a pic of your hand like that, get a better manicure. you can see her Lee Press-Ons.
Her nose was such that it needed more than one surgery. It’s being done gradually over many months. This is probably her third nose surgery. I doubt it’s finished yet. For someone who is denying any surgery or procedures she sure has had an awful lot of them. Easily as much, if not more, than Kylie and Kim.
And those anus lips. Yuck!
WTF is she talking about? Every line of jeans I’ve ever looked at in store or online carry a size 30-31. That’s American waist sizing. A very common size. Maybe she was in the girls department and was too high to realize.
And way to show off that bling. Cause all the Kardashians learned a lesson from Kim’s robbery. Uh huh.
Yeah, that’s just what I was wondering. Most labels, even the upper-scales one, usually have a standard line all the way to size 34.
Plus, how is she not having problems finding jeans now? I get that she’s lost weight, but she also padded her butt with two pillows. Is there a company that caters especially to that?
No, ‘nice’ jean labels, like AG, Paige, Frame, etc., only go up to 31 or 32, which translates to a 10, maaaybe a 12.
I wasn’t necessarily talking about jeans labels, but clothing labels that sell jeans.
But maybe it’s different because I’m speaking from an European point of view. Labels like Hilfiger (even though it’s an American brand) go up to 34 and even designer jeans like DSQUARED (over-priced in my opinion, but I doubt Khloe was try to save money) include size 36.
yeah, 30 is considered size 10 and 31 is a size 12. not exactly “plus” sizes.
maybe she was at 5-7-9.
(yeah just dated myself with THAT one.)
OMG, I remember 5-7-9! Too funny.
thank goodness, Lorelai! how about Petite Sophisticate? lol
We’ll go to 5-7-9 first and then meet you at Contempo Casuals.
In my experience in the US, the “Premium denim” (I hate that word, btw, but that’s what they call it in most of the upscale department stores here) only go up to a waist size 32.
I’ve purchased jeans at Saks, Bloomingdales and Nordstrom and I’ve never seen anything larger than a 32 in the higher end brands.
Even the 32, which is supposed to be a US 12…well, you’d have to be a “small 12” in order to make them work, IMO.
Jeans shopping was incredibly frustrating for me for a very long time. Even now that I’ve lost weight and don’t have that problem anymore, I remember vividly how upsetting and humiliating it felt at the time. And this was before online shopping was a thing, so shopping involved many teary moments with my mom in various fitting rooms, and leaving store after store empty-handed.
Some brands and styles are better than others. When I was heavier, Joe’s Jeans – the “Honey” style for “curvier” women, specifically – were cut in a way that they still fit me well even though the actual numerical size on the label was much smaller than what I was at the time.
From a business standpoint, I simply cannot understand why so many brands do this because they are literally turning away millions of dollars in sales. There are *so* many women willing to pay for a nice pair of jeans, or want a designer label (and not one with “Kardashian” on it!), but the companies won’t accommodate them by making larger sizes. They’re basically telling any woman over a size 12 to put their money right back in their wallet because they don’t want it. It is nonsensical.
I get that they have a specific “image” they want to maintain (🙄), but they also have stockholders to answer to and they’re missing out on so many potential customers. It’s such a snobbish attitude and really a shame.
Vanity sizing is part of the issue, too.
The US has a huge problem with sizing. I sometimes buy t-shirts in children department stores because the Women’s are too big for me while at some brands like Forever or even H&M I’m more on the Mediums and Larges side.
I try to stick to european sizes as much as I can. It’s easier.
It’s not “shaming” or even bad business. The reality is, when women are overweight or obese, it is extremely challenging to design patterns to accommodate the extra fat. That’s because once the body attains all the extra fat, it becomes misshapen in different areas. So, some women have larger butts, some women gain it all in their stomachs, and some collect it in their shoulders/ back fat. The range of different sizes as well as fitting the clothes on a mannequin to create the patterns and then the garments is very difficult. When people have normal body weights, the body sizes are much more similar. Additionally, the manufacturer has to change everything – all of the standardized equipment, all of the sizing mannequins, all of the pattern making equipment…. As well, they now have to buy extra fabric; the zippers/buttons/accessories have to be changed. Going outside the norm is cost prohibitive. Being fat costs businesses a crap ton of money. It costs over $1 millions dollars to retrofit ONE community hospital to accommodate overweight and obese patients. Who is going to pay for all of this?
It´s also difficult to construct and build houses, yet you probably live in one? But because it is “difficult” to tailor for fat people we don´t deserve to wear clothes? Amazing logic!
I will claw my eyes out if bodysuits come back in style! Noooooooooo!
They already are, boo! I have like, five of them. Wait, more: two from Forever 21, two from H&M, three from TJ Maxx. I have some high-waist, bib-front, sailor-style jeans and I like the bodysuits because they don’t leave a line like shirts do when I tuck them in. For the record, I never ever ever thought my life would go in this direction, but there you have it. Please don’t claw your eyes out.
Shopping with my 16 year old daughter, I learned that everything that was in when I was her age is back. Chokers, matte lipstick, bodysuits, high waisted jeans, etc.
It’s the first season of “Friends” all over again.
Adidas All Stars are back in the game too. I had them when I was 12-13 LOL
Chokers? High-Waisted jeans? Please, god, no.
Next you’ll be telling me that Revlon’s “Toast of New York” lipstick is back! When I was in high school, every girl wore that shade. All of them, myself included!
That has become Khloe’s uniform. Even to the airport, she wears a sheer lingerie style body suit and jeans. I feel kind of bad for her. It seems the sisters pick a “thing” to make them stand out from each other, and it just seems so image based and calculated. Like with Kendall saying having her boobs out is “her thing”.
She’s so damn obnoxious. You’re not a victim, stfu.
Is it bad of to think being fat shamed is not the worst thing in the world?
No.
They think it is, though.
Most people deal with real problems.
Wow, you’re really rude
But it’s so soul-crashing to be shamed for having access to too many cupcakes. The plight of starving orphans in Africa is nothing compared to that.
“See, I’m just like you! Please like me! I’m relatable!”
I’m pretty sure that this whole “story” is just a fabrication to sell her ugly jeans.
This woman doesn’t have a sincere bone in her body.
That ring of hers is ugly and tacky.
Boring, vacuous.
She should get rid of her butt if she wants to feel thinner.
Did she really get butt implants? I thought she was already well-endowed in that dept. to begin with. I am at a loss with the Kardashians body type.
She definitely got implants. Her original body type was more athletic to me. She obviously had a butt although it was much much smaller.
If you dare see it, I’d suggest shots of her when she’s in a bikini. Her ass is levitating.
Oh brother. I must be too old school because I just don’t understand the concept of this “shaming” nonsense. Fat shaming, $lut shaming, etc. Like really? Why do people let the thoughts or comments of others affect them so much. I feel if a person is confident with themselves, the opinions of others won’t bother them to the point where they feel shamed. I’m about 50lbs overweight and if I see clothes that are not my size – guess what? I find some clothes that are my size or I put in the work to lose this weight. What is the point of feeling “shamed” about anything? I feel it speaks more to the dysfunction of the person feeling “shamed” for no reason than them actually being shamed at all.
Just absurd to me… I swear, the weight of words is really declining with this new modern lingo people use on an every day basis. Just like “hating”. If giving an opinion is now considered “hate” I feel sorry for people who actually encounter true hate in their life. They won’t know what to to. SMH!
It’s all a bid for attention! It is so phony, and a lame bid for something else in the media
to add to her scrapbook of clippings. (I know, old-school). Really Khloe, who cares….???
And her nails are horrific and the rings are trashy.
I guess I shouldn’t be giving her the attention she craves….. sigh……
I’m with you. This use of “shaming” to describe any perceived slight is just an outgrowth of the Internet outrage phenomenon. People feel justified in being outraged over the most trivial things which takes away from serious issues. When did we start taking ourselves so seriously?? And by the way Boo-hoo Khloe–you have the money to buy and tailor any clothes you want so don’t complain about sizes.
I’m trying to figure out what it was called before this shaming nonsense started. Was it called anything? There a time once when shaming was not a thing. What did people even do with their free time back then?
To me, this is just another way people are trying to blame others for their decisions and feelings these days. Same with expecting grown-@ss people to behave in a certain way in order to protect your precious snowflakes from reality instead of raising them as a parent should do.
The voice of reason @Prissa…..Thank you for the injection of common sense 😉
I don’t buy it. Finding a 30 0r 31 is not hard….even in small boutiques. Now, if she was a 34, 36 or higher, I can see this complaint being legit. Anyway, I like her denim line, but I think the price point is too high for what you’re getting. I do appreciate her offering up to size 24. More retailers/designers need to do that!
There are speciality shops that only sell plus-size clothing. Perhaps she should have shopped there.
But then her jeans wouldn’t have a designer label slapped on them. She can’t be seen wearing non-designer jeans! *rolls eyes*
Most “real” woman can’t afford jeans at her absurd price point
Her ass looks cartoonish at this point. As does her makeup.
What’s under her bodysuit on her back side? It looks like a diaper was shoved in there? Butt pads?
OMG…I didn’t notice that at first! Depends?? lol
I noticed it too. Does she stuff her jeans like some do their bras?
So her sister was just robbed because she kept flaunting her wealth on social media and Khloe is basically doing the same, begging for the same things to happen to her.
It must be hard being a Kardashian: being so stupid especially.
They feel power only when they flaunt their wealth. It is not about having things, is about showing them to the world and they would rather risk their safety than keep the expensive gifts out of the media.
Kylie, Tyga, Rob and Chyna have been doing the same thing. Also Kanye, who put out there that he bought $50,000 earrings for Kim for a birthday gift. Hopefully they have upped the security also.
In the bottom photo, there looks like a white maxi-pad coming out of the back of those jeans (under that whatever black top she’s wearing). What is that? Butt padding? Luvs Diaper? Depends? Kardiashian Konspiracy…………….
Remember when Khloe was funny? I want to see more of that side of her again
Yep. she used to be bigger everywhere, except her ass. That thing used to be waaaay flatter
@Prissa. You have taken the words directly out of my mouth.
She is complaining about stores not carrying her size yet her OWN store didn’t carry her size ! Lead by example Khloe.
When Khloe refers to “real” women is she including those that have altered their bodies to the absurd proportions that she and a couple of her sisters have?
And as for her being a victim of “fat shaming”… I agree with other commenters. There are worse things. I am a flat chested woman living in a world where lots of people must see that as a deformity considering how many women get implants, but I don’t run around feeling shamed. I don’t care. It’s empowering. Maybe some of these people that feel bad about themselves should try it.
I’m sorry. Not all stores carry all things, or all sizes. It’s not “fat-shaming”. Go to the appropriate store/section for what you are looking for.
@DeltaJuliet I think it’s more an issue of so many girls and women being and feeling excluded because they literally cannot buy things in their size.
A teenage girl who is a size US 14 or 16, for example, might want to wear the same jeans as her friends do, whether it be J. Brand or Paige or whatever, but she can’t because those brands are blatantly showing that they don’t want girls of that size wearing their clothing.
Of course not all stores carry all things. But this is a more specific issue, one of snobbery, IMO.
Unrelated to the jeans topic, I cannot BELIEVE that she posted that photo of all of that jewelry right on her hand.
Clearly she learned nothing from her sister’s recent ordeal.
Morons.
These really are bad times when people are wearing lingerie as outerwear again, seriously, fashion in the 90s was tragic, no need to revive it. And what the hell is that coming out of her lower back?
I actually remember being relieved sometimes that a store didn’t have my size, after realizing that just because the Gap or Old Navy carried something in a 12-14-16, didn’t mean it was cut correctly or flattering. I used to find it equally irritating that mainstream sizing seem to assume that all parts of a person were enlarged equally portionally, and if you had 40 inch hips, you surely had a 40 inch waist and bust.
Yes, this! Some women have big busts and small waists and some women have big busts and big waists. Some women have thigh gaps and some Don’t, just like some women have arses and others have flat butts.
We are all real women
No one brand of jeans or shirts or whatever is gonna fit us all.
Total BS on the 30 or 31″ waist. She looks like she might be that size now. God they lie …
what is coming up out of the back of her pants? It looks like duct tape
It is duct tape, it holds her ass up. If she ever released the tape, her eyebrows would end up on the back of her neck.
A store not carrying your size is not fat shaming. I’m sorry she felt bad about her body. That is a terrible feeling, but not all stores carry all sizes. Not all clothes are offered in all sizes. It is part of life. That is not fat shaming. If it really upsets you when a store doesn’t carry your size, you can always give them a call in advance.
That’s basically what I was saying above. There have been lots of times where things weren’t available in my size for whatever reason. Sorry, but come on.
You and a lot of commenters are equating not being able to purchase any clothes at the mall with that time you really wanted that coat but they were sold out of your size. It’s not the same, and maybe you shouldn’t speak on something you’ve never experienced.
Nope, that’s not what I was talking about at all. There have been times where the size that I was in was not available at a store. Not sold out, UNAVAILABLE. As in, not sold in that store. Don’t assume and don’t tell me what I should and shouldn’t comment on.
HAHA…”gym rat”! That’s funny!
Well I hope they upped security cause this family clearly didn’t learn anything about posting pictures of their jewelry online.
Wait, so she didn’t like it that stores didn’t carry her size, but then admits that dash, her store, doesn’t carry them either? 🤔
She looks greasy and horrible by the back.
Celebitchy- why are you not talking about her man’s pregnant ex girlfriend who he dumped a few months ago for Khloe? She’s about to give birth too.
I have plus sized women in my family. With clothes , they pay more for lesser quality and fewer options. It’s very unfair, especially when statistically heavier people are discriminated against in employment opportunities, promotions and wages, often they have less income. That is a real problem that is rooted in our fat-shaming culture. But really, this sounds like rich girl whining and thay cheapens the meaning of the term fat-shaming for use where it is needed, like when heavier people can’t get a fair and thorough doctor’s exam because the doctor chalks the patient’s every compliant to them needing to lose weight. Like with being forced to buy crappier, more expensive clothes fro! a handful of retail outlets, this is why fat-shaming is a real issue–it effects quality of life. And don’t tell me not being able to buy clothes from LA’s trendiest bontiques is a quality of life issue on level with affordable clothing and healthcare for ordinary people.
I’d never seen the different pricing for larger sizes until I visited the US. I’m 5’9 with big boobs and broad shoulders so I’m often stuck buying XL sizing and it shocked me when I saw I was paying more.
I used to be annoyed at the opposite. I’m a fairly median size now maybe a little over (in Australia anyway, I’d probably be on the smaller side of average in the US) but I used to be very very skinny. It used to annoy me that I paid the same amount for a dress as someone who needed two, three or even four times as much material as me.
+1
Basically, the doctor is always right when he says they need to lose weight. It might not be the root of the current health problem but it’s still a constant health issue.
Who is that? Her face has changed so much. They all need to stop!
Of all lifetimes to live, I have to live this one with these useless people…Will they ever go away?
Sizes 30 and 31 are very available at any Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, Macy’s, not sure what she’s talking about.
So when my grocery store doesn’t carry Starbucks in a bottle, are they coffee shaming? Maybe they just don’t have it!
Or… it´s more like when you grocery store doesn’t sell food to people of a certain size. Because clearly fat people don´t need food/clothes.
Just b/c a store doesn’t carry your size they aren’t “fat-shaming” you. And just b/c a store only carries a certain size range it doesn’t mean they hate larger people. I let my weight creep up for several years. I wore 14-16’s. I still had a nice wardrobe but I found that there were styles of clothing and outfits that I liked that didn’t look good on me at that weight. That was my vision of myself. Stores weren’t “fat-shaming” me. I was “fat-shaming” myself. I could find clothes in my size I just didn’t like the way I looked in them. I decided to lose weight somewhat for health reasons but mostly for vanity/fashion reasons. It took me a couple years as I went the slow and steady route. Now I wear 6’s. But I don’t shop at Forever 21, Abercrombie, Buckle, or Hollister or the junior depts, etc. even though I can fit into their clothes, b/c those looks are too young for me. So maybe I should start bitching that they are age-shaming! 👵🏻😂
I laugh every time they refer to Khloe as a “gym rat” lol, can’t help it!
I feel short-shamed because stores never carry my jean size either. Normal lenght is 32, some stores have also 30 for short and 34 for tall ladies. It’s impossible to find a 28, even though they exist. Same with shoes. No one carries size 5.5 or 6. Oh wait, it’s called capitalism.
People will maybe find this hard to believe but I had huge problems finding clothes that fit when I was tiny. I would get told often to try the kids dept. it felt just as shit. Then I realised that these stores want to make money. If it sells, they’ll stock it. So they buy more of the sizes in the middle range because that’s what most people are. They weren’t shaming me for being way skinnier than most women they just wouldn’t have sold many pairs of pants in my size.
She was only “shamed” because they did not carry her band and that’s the “TRASHY/BITCH LOOK” brand. Size is/was the least of her worries.
She also said she only shopped at little boutiques, you know the really fancy ones that don’t keep a large amount of inventory around . I’m assuming her store DASH didn’t sell larger sizes either ? For some reason , I just don’t believe her . And I’m hoping that her brand isn’t all high waisted jeans like she’s been wearing because they give her little “baby camel toes”!
She is fat shaming herself. She constantly points out how ‘fat’ she was which is a horrible word to use. She has never been ‘fat’ and when you have a huge fake ass it is hard to fit into regular clothes, duh…
