I’m plus-size and did an Aerie haul – the crop tops and shorts are chunky girl approved
A PLUS-SIZE woman added to her summer wardrobe with her favorite finds from Aerie.
She was pleasantly surprised by how flattering the crop top and shorts set was, calling the haul her best one yet.
After seeing the adorable outfits other girls found at Aerie, fashion lover Taylor Pullan (@taytayymarie) gave the brand a try to see if it was “chunky girl approved.”
“I keep seeing everybody talk about how good Aerie is lately, but I haven’t seen anybody try on that has a chunky body like me,” she began in the clip.
“So, let’s try on some pieces that I ordered and see what’s chunky girl approved.”
The first set she tried on was a $20 pink crop top with $32 matching shorts that flared out to flatter her legs.
“I’m working on getting out of my comfort zone this summer, and this is not something I would normally wear.”
Taylor admitted that she would typically throw on a denim jacket or additional layer to hide her body, but she wasn’t going to do that anymore.
“This is freaking cute. I love this print, I love the fit of it, it’s adorable.”
She shared her words to live by: “Must remember that style is not a size. Wear the damn outfit.”
Sticking with pink, she slipped into a comfortable $50 bubble gum long-sleeve T-shirt and $20 shorts.
“This would be so easy to throw on with anything, and I love the shade of pink they have.”
Although she liked the shorts, she noted that they weren’t as roomy as she’d want.
“I’m not in love.”
Her third outfit, however, got her back on track.
Although the $30 athletic skirt and $26 crop were “way out of her comfort zone,” she said the soft material and flirty silhouette made it a win.
“This skirt! Oh my God this is so good,” she admired.
The shorts under the skirt made it easy to spend the day in, with Taylor noting that she was going to “wear it all the time.”
