90% of women agree that “what you wear can affect how you feel.”
My friends at ModCloth are celebrating the year anniversary of the launch of their plus size collection! The popular retailer best known for retro inspired fashion full of whimsey (and a little kitch) is one of my favs.
Aren’t options great? I think that the more retailers who “take a chance” on including plus size fashion not only quickly see that women are waiting for these options and are excited to shop with them and they also provide proof of concept for other brands wanting to dip their toes into their industry.
Without options, it’s a heck of a lot harder to look great! As you can see I’ve worn ModCloth quite a bit on the blog. Have you ever shopped with ModCloth? Here’s your chance! I’m giving away a $100 gift code so that you can snag something dandy.
For a second chance to win, follow AndIGetDressed on instagram! I’ll be giving away a second $100 gift code there.
All you need to do is leave a comment with how wearing something you love makes you feel. Leave your email address so that I can contact you. Best way to avoid spambots is to do this:

Being a size 4+, there were many years of my life spent in jeans and plain tshirts. Having so many options and wearing things I love allow me to discover myself in a new way, which is exciting and fun. Theplussideofme at gmail dot come
I'm sure my story isn't unique however the first time I was able to find a piece of clothing designed with my shape in mind was nothing short of revolutionary. Fashion and fatshion have been my entre into a whole new world of self acceptance, self care and love and in turn have made me a happier and more fulfilled person. When I wear something I love I feel special, I feel cared for, and I feel that I present my best, most confident self to the world! Thank you! Please reach me at abby.roo0 at gmail dot com

Wearing something I love makes me walk a little taller and prouder through the day. If I'm not feelin' it, I'm not wearin' it. Easy as that! And it can be excruciatingly hard to find perfect pieces available in plus sizes, so I feel like it is a huge victory when I find something worthy enough to put in my closet and to be worn. 🙂

Wearing something I love makes me feel like I can handle whatever the day is about to throw my way! I know an outfit will be in major rotation when it makes me feel like the best version of myself – feminine, fierce and a little bit quirky. JuliaPancakes at gmail dot com.
Wearing something I love makes me feel like I belong on the cover of a fashion magazine or any magazine for that matter. It makes me forget about life's negativities when I first put it on, and after taking a look in the mirror I know I'm ready to change people's lives and the world. I become disney princess meets super woman.

When I wear something I love, it makes me a happier more loving person. tarin dot tellez at gmail dot com
I totally dress to help myself feel a certain way sometimes. Today, I have a tough meeting this afternoon, so I'm wearing a pinstripe sheath over a linen, peter pan collar button down. I feel cute (especially with the red lipstick I used to top it off) and like myself, as the shirt is vintage. But I've got a business-like, I-know-what-I'm-doing with the pinstripe. I can picture my closet in my head and flip through the rack according to how each makes me feel. The dresses that I truly love make me feel special and confident!
Wearing something I love makes me feel like myself, because I would never wear anything that didn't compliment my body or personality. Who you are is much more important than what you're wearing, but I find it really empowering when my outward appearance can reflect who I am.

Wearing something that I love makes me feel super confident! And that goes for clothing, a hairstyle, and makeup!

I could write a novel, especially since this post includes ModCloth. Like a lot of bigger girls who grew up in the '90s, my wardrobe consisted of whatever "came in my size," which was usually stretch pants, sweatshirts and boys t-shirts. I never felt confident and I never loved anything I owned. Combine that with being made fun of in school, not only for how I looked, but how I dressed — in clothes I didn't even like!
My interests and passion have always been in the music, culture and FASHION! of the 1960s. But there was never anything that came in my size that reflected the mod, paisley and stripey patterns on my heart. I graduated to Beatles t-shirts and jeans, which was close as I ever thought I would get to somehow translating what I loved into clothing. Even when ModCloth first came on the scene, my heart broke when I saw it only carried "straight" sizes.
But, happily, ModCloth's plus size expansion has finally helped me on the road to building the wardrobe of my retro dreams. (Plus a lot of style tips and encouragement from all of the amazing plus size bloggers I've discovered.) Now, when I wear something I love, I want to show it off. I love how my clothing can finally reflect who I am on the inside, and the things that I enjoy. My confidence is through the roof when I wear my favorite ModCloth persimmon party dress I bought for holiday events last year. Every time I rock it, I'm showered in compliments. A far cry from school days and bullies.
(I swear I didn't mean for this to be an ode to ModCloth, but it's seriously changed my life!)

When I wear something I love I tend to hold my head a little higher, my smile is wider, and I feel like I have not a care in the world. I posted a photo below of me feeling amazing in my ensemble 🙂

Wearing something I love makes me feel confident and like an individual – not someone who follows trends! chicstripes@gmail.com
Wearing something I love makes me feel different things. Sure clothing keeps us covered but it tells a story as well. When I wear lace, I feel ultra feminine but I run around and can get messy in my converse all-stars. I wear jeans to be comfortable but if I wear red, I'm in the space where I'm ready to get down to business. Clothing can reflect or even elevate mood and give the outside world a glimpse of who you are because when you feel good, you'll look good.

Let me start by saying I absolutely love everything fashionable and I love to look good : ) Wearing something I love makes me feel fierce and fabulous. It makes me beam and exude confidence. I am so comfortable in the skin that I'm in and I want that to radiate when I step into a room. Wearing something I love makes me feel yummy. prycless2 at aol dot com
I feel like I could do anything when I'm wearing something I love. Granted it's not skydiving and I'm wearing a skirt. 😉 anoldstoryblog at yahoo dot com
Before I really understood fashion and style, I struggled immensely trying to find clothes to fit my plus-sized frame. Thank the lord for style blogs, chile, because learning how to dress your shape, and pulling inspiration from bloggers who "get it" has helped this girl come a long way. When you wake up in the morning and pick anything from your closet, because you know whatever you pick, will ALWAYS flatter you, is the best feeling in the world. Not to worry about shirts hugging on rolls, or jeans that give you muffin tops. It's just like freedom. And to walk into work, or into a party or hell, the grocery store and know you look good?! Not to sound cliche, but the it's quite priceless. Love your blog and your fiercely sophisticated style! besos! Kaye (cookayemonster at yahoo dot com)
For me, it's quite simple, wearing something that I love and feel comfortable in instantly gives me confidence! This is why i love modecloth!! (Lauramathieu at hotmail dot com)
some outfits are better than others, but all outfits should give you that extra boost to get out of bed and tackle the day. yesterday was a rainy day and i wanted to stay in bed but because i had recently bought a trench coat, well, i was so excited for the opportunity to wear it. i felt so sophisticated and posh.. love how clothes can transform your attitude! (starjuice13 at gmail dot com)
Wearing something I love makes me feel good and that confidence makes me look good. But most important in that is the confidence. I go out into the world believing that I can make anything I want happen for myself. Just putting on something I love can translate into positive experiences and changes in the rest of my life
Wearing something that makes you feel good can make you feel sexy, poised, respected, flirty, comfortable, edgy, confident, strong, unbeatable & ready to take on any challenge.
I love dressing everyday, I love picking who I am going to be today. And I think that what I love most about dressing, is that I may not be the same me tomorrow or the same as who I was yesterday. I'm always evolving and choosing who I am and what I want to say to the world.
It's a tremendous freedom made even freer by more and more retailers, like ModCloth, that are making options for people of all sizes!!

As a big woman, living happily is an act of rebellion in this society. I love just being able to stare at myself as I put my favorite colorful pieces on and be just happy for being big, bold, beautiful, bright & blessed! Confidence is the key to radiance! I can conquer the world with faith and strength when I believe in me. I wish that for all woman.

Wearing something I love makes me feel svelte, beautiful, sensual, confident, and sexy! I adore when I take pictures for my blog and the look translates the way I envisioned!!!! I feel as if the world is my runway and I've been told I do a sashay-walk on days i'm feeling myself. I have always wanted to try Mod Cloth & this would be the PERECT opportunity!

When I wear something I love, I feel more at ease, happy and more pretty. Like today :), when I´m wearing my favourite maxi dress.

Wearing what I love makes me feel happy and beautiful it lets me be myself.When i wear something i love i can express my personality through it and flaunt my confidence with it as style speaks for itself.It dosent matter if its a ripped pair of jeans or a well tailored dress,as long as i love it it will always keep me satisfied and make me feel comfortable in it anytime anywhere.I look good and feel good by wearing what i love.!
Wearing what I love and look good in makes me feel secure. I've always been fat; there's not a time in my adult life when I haven't had lumps, bumps and folds. Fat is the one thing everyone feels they can make fun of, no matter what. There have been times when I've been ridiculed, mocked and even had a personal attack on my weight on social media. But when I get dressed, all those concerns float out the window. I feel bold, beautiful, stylish, confident, classy, and chic when I get dressed. I feel I'm an inspiration to others who believe they have no fashionable options when it comes to being a larger size.

Thank youxx
When I wear something I love, I feel like nothing can stop me! I'm confident, determined, sure of myself and not to mention super happy! There's a smile on my face all day. People don't think that wearing certain clothes can do that but believe it can :o) lapecosapreciosa (at) gmail (dot) com
Wearing something I love makes me feel beautiful, smart, sexy, desirable and confident. It transports me away from all the negative thoughts that creep up from time to time. It's a wonderful feeling to put on an outfit you love and tell yourself that today is going to be a great day and it actually is! A guy may approach you, the barista at Starbucks might give you an extra shot of espresso… The possibilities are endless! Wearing something I love makes me feel limitless! 🙂 LeskimL8 at aol dot com
I like to feel good in everything I wear (bummed out or glamorous) but nothing and I mean NOTHING makes me feel as good as a dress! Femininity is expressed in many forms but dresses just make me feel like THE woman. Casual, fancy, even racy…How can you not strut while wearing one?
Wearing something I love makes me feel confident and comfortable. There's not another feeling like that! angela at angelakurtz dot com
in a 3rd world country wearing what you love and expressing your individuality is not only risky, it becomes expensive too. i love mod cloth, but have never been able to afford their stuff. debiparna_chakraborty at yahoo dot com

I'm a bit (ok, a lot) of an introvert, and sometimes it's almost painful for me to be in social situations. When I wear something I love and I know I look good in, I feel strong. I feel powerful. It's like wearing armor that I know will give me the authority to let my personality come out and shine through.

Dressing up and wearing something nice affects my whole day, even my week! I feel most powerful in very feminine clothing. There is strength in femininity and strength in feeling my personality and gender reflected in my clothing! Let's get dressed!
I feel good when I wear my suit for work because I know I look sharp and ready for business. It also helps when I spend time on my hair and make-up. I've been enjoying your blog! mocat46 at gmail.com
Wearing what I love…. makes me feel better when I look in the mirror. Maybe my eyeliner has smudged or worn off, but if the overall package still looks how I want? Then I'm okay with the "Monet" effect at the end of the day! Wearing what I love doesn't change throughout the day.

Wearing an item that I love makes me feel good. Or, in some cases, you just can't tell me nothing. When I feel good and confident in myself, all that matters is…myself and how I feel. Easy.

I love to wear scarves!! I use them as necklaces, head-wraps, belts or as stole thrown over t-shirts, dresses. Scarves -dare I say it- make me feel pretty, feminine and sophisticated.
Wearing clothes for me is all about the memories I create in them…whether hanging out with family and friends or special days like graduation or birthday celebrations clothes are not about the label… They are all about the life experiences that you never forget. ? stopwaitinglivenow at gmail dot com
Usually as a single mom, the majority of the clothing I purchase is not for me. But I've leaned that a great fitting skirt or fabulous shoes can be versatile and chic, a feeling that doesn't come often but helps me feel as tall as long leaf pines.
Wearing clothes (especially the ones that I love) means that I can finally feel confident in my own skin– probably (admittedly) to the point where I can get cocky about it haha. But I deserve it! Nothing makes me feel better than accepting myself in my own skin, and wearing something that makes me look good makes me feel good.

I bought a white and navy polka dot maxi skirt. This turned in to a life changing purchase. It was the first thing I bough because it was how I WANTED to dress and not because it was how I SHOULD dress. I wore it today and got complements from strangers. It made me feel so powerful. And I've vowed to dress to stand out not to fade in to the background from now on. cpietrosh at me dot com.
Wearing things that breaks the "plus size rules" makes me happy. I've only recently started wearing tank tops in public. Every time I put one on I get butterflies in my stomach! missbusysworld at gmail dot com.

Thanks for the giveaway, Kellie. When I wear something I love, I stand a little straighter, I walk a little taller, and my strut is definitely sassier!
