I have short arms so I had to tuck up my sleeves.

Shop Plus Size in NYC

New York City is best known as the shopping mecca of the East coast (the world is debatable). What it's not known for its plus-sized fashions. Let's face it although the majority of America is heading toward the double-digit waist size many retailers and designers alike just don't make clothes for women after a certain size.
