ThePinkSlip offers the best of the best in trendy and sophisticated merchandise with great brand names like Cosabella, Hanky Panky and On Gossamer.

The Pink Slip was born out of a genuine love and passion for fine lingerie and comfortable loungewear. This love and passion grew into a successful business beginning with the first Pink Slip store opening in the heart of New York City, Grand Central Station, in 1999.

Convenience is the niche that The Pink Slip first captured, offering busy travelers access to intimate gifts and forgotten “must have” items. Within months, The Pink Slip became “the” place to shop by the savviest and most discernable of shoppers-New Yorkers. Backed by industry recognition and a reputation for quality, selection and price, The Pink Slip sought to expand and share its unique approach to convenience and overall shopping experience-to those outside of New York.

You may be passing through a terminal on a layover in one of many airports and notice your favorite lingerie store right in front of you. Perhaps you prefer to shop from the comfort of your own home, either way, we at the Pink Slip want to ensure that you always have access to those all too important “must have” or “just want to have them” items.

With decades of experience and large merchandiser buying power, The Pink Slip is able to offer customers the widest selection of brand name intimate apparel, loungewear and accessories at the best prices. So, whether you’re a busy traveler, enjoy the occasional vacation, prefer cotton over lace, need advice about what to wear or how to wear it-we’re here for you.

We all want to look our best, whether we’re short and slim or tall and heavier. Here are a few tips I’ve collected for plus size women that will help us look our best.

Pants

Choose pants that are long enough for you. If your pants are too short, it visually cuts the length of your legs. The longer your legs look, the slimmer they’ll appear.

Also choose pants that fit you well, not too tight or clingy. Fabrics that are too thin tend to cling to your legs and reveal bumps we’d rather keep out of sight.

Choose pants that are either boot cut, wider legged or flared at the bottom. The boot cut is slimming, while the wider cuts also add a slimming effect by keeping a visual straight line from our hips to our ankles. The worst choice would be a tight, tapered pant leg bottom as this enhances the width of your hips and thighs.

Capri pants are very slimming as well if they’re the right length. Choose a style where the bottom of the pant ends a few inches above your ankles but below the widest part of your calves.

Skirts

Choose skirts that rest just above your knees. A mid-calf skirt cuts the length of your legs and draws eyes to the thickest part of your lower legs. Read the rest of this entry »

Whether you’re in the market for one custom jacket for yourself, enough for an entire team of little leaguers, or a company 1,000 employees, one thing remains the same: you’re in need of a quality jacket at an affordable price. Jackets will fall into dozens of price categories within scores of quality types, so being confident that you are getting the most for your dollar is essential.

After deciding on a generalized price point per custom jacket, you’ll need to decide on a jacket style. From “Letterman” styles of jackets, to full zip fleece, to “coaches” jackets and everything in between, you have a lot of choices to contemplate before making your final decision. If you are uncertain in any way as to making this important decision, you will need to contact someone who knows the ins and outs of the custom jacket industry.

And while you’re looking for such a contact, look for a company that stands out amongst the masses- one in which each and every employee is trained in each and every aspect of the business at hand. Having one person who knows you from the first phone call until your custom order is in your hands is a bonus, but make sure that your person isn’t too specialized, for if they fall ill or take a vacation, you want to make sure your questions and concerns are answered to in a timely manner.

Just ten years ago plus size women were limited to clothes shopping in the two back corner racks of the local department store. We didn’t have a lot of selection in style and fit and really–we didn’t enjoy shopping for ourselves all that much. It’s hard feeling good about a wardrobe full of cartoon character t-shirts and too short stretchy pants, and it was disappointing to shop for more of the same.

Our choices in fashion were basic polyester stretch pants (remember those thick elastic waistbands ladies?), plain oversize t-shirts, and flowing, flowery polyester house dresses. Anything that was somewhat nice was stocked in limited quantities and at an exorbitant price.

Ladies we felt & looked frumpy and dowdy because that’s all we had to wear!
