Lularoe

On Halloween I wore a red with white polka dots Irma. It was the perfect Disney bounding outfit!
I never expected to get sucked into the LulaRoe craze. Oh my goodness - it's so addicting. Finding the print you want, in the size you need, in the style you want it is exhilarating! Haha. I think my addiction is ceasing to an end since I've found the exact styles I've been hunting for and my wallet can no longer support this craze.

I LOVE polka dots (it's the Minnie Mouse and I Love Lucy fan inside me) and it's hard to find anything that has polka dots on it that's flattering. It's even harder when you're plus size (or TC - Tall & Curvy, as LulaRoe lovingly terms it). So polka dots is basically what started my LulaRoe craze.

So what is LulaRoe? LulaRoe is a clothing company that sells fun colors and prints in a variety of styles of clothing. The styles are consistent, but the colors and prints are constantly changing and they only make a certain number of items of each print. You can only buy the clothes through a consultant (or through eBay). You can host "parties" through consultants and receive incentives for doing it. I'm not personally into throwing those kinds of parties.

The styles are easy to remember by their names. I'll list a few examples - The Randy resembles a baseball T. The Irma is a loose "high low" tunic with fitted mid-length sleeves (this is my favorite style!). The Amelia is a short sleeved dress and has pockets (dresses with pockets? That's the best, right? Haha).

PROS
  • They have a wide array of sizing, sizes to fit practically every body. Which is so refreshing. It sucks to miss out on cute clothes when they don't make your size.
  • Not only do they have a wide array of sizing, everything they carry is flattering.
  • They have an amazing array of colors and prints to pick from.
CONS
  • They're expensive.
  • If there's a popular print you want, you may have a hard time finding it.
  • If you're shopping in multi-consultant groups, you have to pay shipping to each consultant you're shopping from.
I wanted to list some of my favorite multi-consultant Facebook groups... I got approved soon after requesting access to them. Browsing through these various groups made looking for the print and size (which LulaRoe terms hard to find prints as unicorns) I want quickly and efficiently. These groups list their albums by size and style, so it's easy to navigate. Often times the albums have hundreds to choose from! It's fairly easy to shop through as well. You usually just type SOLD and you're email address so the consultant can send you an invoice. Sometimes consultants have different instructions, so be sure to read the caption for the picture.
