I recently got promoted at work and am looking for a few blazers to add to my wardrobe. I'm on the hunt for blazers that: 
- Have some shape, either through princess seaming or ruching at the back
- Has at least two buttons for closure or is opened without any buttons (can't pull off a single-button blazer, I don't have the boobs to fill it out)
- Are 3/4 length sleeved ideally
- Are in fabrics like cotton, ponte knit, or sateen (provided it's not too shiny) and vibrant colors or jeweled tones (green, navy, purple, dark red, etc.)

I've checked Lane Bryant, Talbots, OneStopPlus, Igigi, Torrid, Addition Elle/Penningtons, Nordstrom, Macys, and Bloomingdales but haven't seen a lot. I'm an 18/20, with bust of about 48, waist of 42 and hips of 52". I typically like a blazer length of 25-26".  

If you have any suggestions, I'd love to hear them. I'm in Canada, so retailers that ship north of the border is a must. 

Thanks!

Hi lovely fats!

My job is sending me to San Francisco (from Boston) on Tuesday!

Does anyone know of local plus size shops? I won't have access to a car, but I don't mind taking the BART. If there's a REALLY good store out of the city I don't mind ponying up for a cab.

Ooh I'm so excited! I've been to San Fran before, but only for 12 hours! Now I am staying for 4 days. I hope I get to see more than the uber-touristy spots this time (though the crookedest street made for a good calf workout, since I started from the bottom. Yeesh.)

...I just acquired a lovely pair from Daxon. They sell costumes up to a size 32, though of course their sizing is smaller than, say, Evans's. And best of all, their costumes appear to be intended to actually be swum in! (As I go swimming at least 1km three times a week, this is kind of a big deal for me)

Their delivery was a bit slow, but within 14 days, and I can totally live with that for decent pretty swimwear. Just a heads-up :)

I've been looking at the Lingerie Addict for some time now and despite being a mom soon, feel like I will need/want some everyday luxury. Does anyone know of any etsy shops that sell plus size silk underthings/lingerie? Mary Green stuff is beautiful, but only goes up to size L, as do most of the 'regular' shops that sell silk lingerie. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated. 

I totally dig the Hawaiian/Tiki look and I would love to have a dress with a hibiscus flower print on it, or other tiki styles. but I'm at a loss. I had a look around ebay last night and made an attempt to Google it, but all to no avail. There doesn't seem to be anything plus size that doesn't look really frumpy. Does anyone have any suggestions of places to look?
I'm in the UK, so either UK based or somewhere that will ship to (cheaply!)

Thanks!

Edit: I am a UK 26!

I know a lot of y'all have ordered from Jane Bonbon successfully in the past. I placed an order several months ago (on February 28), and despite inquiring several times, I still have not received my item. The last response I was able to get from her was April 18, when she reassured me my item would be sent shortly. It's now over a month later, and I've sent two subsequent queries with no response.

I'm really disappointed with this situation, particularly given her stellar reputation (and her totally cute clothes). I'm just finishing up school, so the dress was more than a bit of an indulgence, and now I'm out the money with nothing to show for it. I'm kicking myself for not filing a Paypal dispute when the window for complaints was still open.

I've left feedback via Etsy, but I wanted to post here to see if anyone else has had a similar experience and see if anyone knew what was going on. Is she on some kind of unposted hiatus or something?

I'm really upset by the whole thing. I've never had an Etsy seller totally flake on me, and I cut a lot of slack in this situation because of her reputation. It appears at this point, joke's on me for that.

I know slow shipping times are par for the course from eShakti - I've ordered from them before, and while stuff usually takes nearly a month to arrive.. I can deal with that.

But my recent experience has left me a bit puzzled and wary to order again. I ordered a dress at the beginning of May for a wedding in mid-June. Monday, out of the blue... I get a notification that my order has been canceled, nearly a month after it was placed. No explanation, nothing. Just canceled.

To make matters worse, I'm not seeing any sort of refund for the order on my credit card or any attempt to refund the gift card I had used to pay for part of it. Customer service has yet to respond to any emails.

Has anyone else been experiencing this kind of wierd, sketchy service from eShakti lately? Any idea on the best way to get this resolved, since customer service doesnt seem to respond at all? :l

edit: thanks for the help, all! i will be giving them a call today - i'll be sure to update if the situation changes... but i admit seeing the complaints on their facebook isnt making me feel particularly hopeful.
