As I’m in my “Mimi getting healthy” era, I am so appreciative of all you do. I have lost 60 pounds so far since April, and you have helped me find “next size down” clothing that doesn’t break the bank as I continue on this journey. I too am in Houston, so I know how important cool and comfortable is in our long summer heat. Thank you for all you do!
Mimi- I am so proud of you!!! 60 pounds since April is an amazing accomplishment!! It is such a challenge, but we got this ❤️❤️. Take care of yourself out there, it is just miserable out right now!
I am a secret lurker by not commenting, but I have to comment. I love love your attitude. I have been in my happy phase for over 20 yrs, ïts the best. I am a black British/America girl. I have traveled the world most times alone, because my friends don't like to travel. I don't worry about my size I am 5.5 180lb, and I am not on a diet. I eat what I want, but as long as my blood pressure/ sugar and lab work is good. It's full steam ahead. I am also a hospice nurse, so I understand to live life without worrying about what anyone outside of my job think.
I did not or would not wait until I am a size 2 to dress how I want, go where I want or do want I want, The time you spend sometimes yrs waiting until you are a certain size, to do the things you want. You can never get these time back. All I care about is to stay as healthy and well as I can. At 61 if I die today I know I have lived a full life, and still going. Thanks for your lovely message.
This was absolutely beautiful- thank you for sharing with us! I wish that I had this attitude when I was younger, but boy am I embracing it now!
I have known two hospice nurses in my life, they helped someone that I love dearly and brought so much comfort to our family - you truly make a difference in the world- thank you!
❤️
Beautiful message. Stay blessed @2525besty. Safe travels. If we were friends, I would've traveled w / you.
@@BigonStyle You are very welcome.
@@alciraproenza-collazo Thanks.
I don’t like jumpsuits myself but those jumpsuits looked stunning on you! I think both are work appropriate.
I agree, she looked super cute !
I'm so excited that you did a Halara review! And I disagree with whoever said you should avoid the wide leg pants (as a girl who comes from a long line of women with disproportionately heavy hips, thighs and booties), the wide leg is incredibly sophisticated and slimming. Everything looked so cute on you, not a negative in the bunch!! 🤩🤩🤩
Thank you, Amy!! I am a huge proponent of wearing what we like- I keep trying slimmer profile pants, and just have not liked them on. One day- but until then, wide legs are here to stay!
@BigonStyle I do love me a wide leg pant!! And they look fabulous on you. You've inspired me to go for it with some happy colored pants, instead of my old standby black or navy! ❤️
Loved the black dungarees on you Meredith ,great haul and great video as usual!As a happy girl on my own journey,you are really inspiring me to broaden my horizons with colour and fit,thank you 🙏
Cute outfits
👍
I absolutely love this! Thank you for all the reviews you do. I never would have tried or thought to try Halara. I didn't really expect them to be plus size friendly. I absolutely love the the black overalls, the blue flowy jumpsuit and the waffle pants on you. I'd love to see a video featuring the items that you didn't feature in this video, as well.
Nothing in my closet fits as I'm working on reducing my size for health reasons. My husband gave me a budget and told me to get some pieces that would work for me now and over the next few months. They currently have a sale on the website with mix and match possibilities at different price points. I ended up ordering 3 tops, one pair of pants, one long skirt, one jumpsuit and 2 active skirts. All for under $225. Can't beat that!!!
The pink pants are quite flattering. My least favorite is the high low skirt. I like everything.
I feel the same! I was surprised that the high-low was my least favorite, considering I actually quite liked it 😅
“November through the end of March…” I had to laugh out loud at that one, Meredith! I absolutely felt that one. 😂
right- it was a long winter!! #same!
🤣🤣🤣. Girl, it happens to the best of us!
I love it all!! The silver jumpsuit was fabulous and the green slacks were great. I loved the pink slacks, too, because of the color. Also the black jumpsuit was amazing. I'll stop now, but it was a great haul!! Keep smiling that sunshine smile, Meredith. Love ya!
I watched @HangWithHopescope try on the full range of Halara dresses and while Hope and Anna looked great in all of them, the mostly short and body skimming dresses were intimidating to me. I am so glad you did this video to see more of their range. You and Hope help my happy girl era! Thank you so much!
I will see if I can do dresses next time- some of the backs on those dresses are very crazy!! I love Hopescope, I know which video you are talking about!!
OMG those pants and that shirt are adorable and look so comfortable. I autistic and am completely over making myself uncomfortable. Jeans, stiff non stretch or non drapes fabrics, and button fly pants are the bane of my existence. I’m just concerned about length since I’m a shorty at 5’4’’
Unrelated…I think you should do a JessaKae haul. Her dresses are so romantic and pretty and seem to really fit your style. Silke dresses might be another option
The waffle pants aren't in sale. 😢 And they didn't have the black shirt available.
Did that stop me from ordering $200+? Not at all. Lol
Oh no, on the waffle pants and black
Shirt! I wrote them about the top today! It has just disappeared from the site. I hope that you love your new items!
I loved this haul! I immediately went onto the site and bought a bunch! 🎉 I love to see work appropriate clothing that is comfortable and fits plussize bodies nicely.
I really hope that you like everything that you chose! I liked the activewear on their site, but it doesn’t excite me nearly as much as these do! Comfortable work pants? Yes, please!!
Im so into the Happy Girl Club. Thank you for that. IMO the pink pants looked amazing on you, the olive not so much. The last jumpsuit is also great on you.
I would keep the whole box..
Exchange the one jump suit for a smaller size....
Wow, the gray jumpsuit looks so good on you. Once you size down it will be perfect. The belt really pulls it together!
Thank you! I think you are right- the belt really made that one seem so professional!
Again, you have introduced me to brands I never knew I couldn’t live without. Everything you showed was so beautiful on you. Keep them all! (You look glamorous in the icy dress with the narrow black belt)
Thank you so much, Cat! I really was impressed with that jumpsuit, as well!
OMG I literally got the same pair of pants and colour as that pink is beautful I was so surprised how nice they fit being a bigger girl myself I got an XL and they are so comfy will be buying more as also fav type of pant the nice wide leg
That is awesome, we are twinning! I agree on the comfort- I would never have thought to buy dress pants from them!
Love the gray jumpsuit on you. I’ve been impressed with Halara for a while now and might have to try them. Thank you for making such great content. Always a happy spot in my day. You are a fantastic communicator.
I need to get on the happy girl bandwagon. I love how real you are. I have learned so much about plus-size clothing.
Very successful haul. Everything is so flattering on you.
The green pants wins! I like the black jumpsuit for fun too.
Those were both so great!! Those green pants feel so awesome!!
I have been looking for some summer pants. My office is VERY casual so I could get away with everything here!
Okay. Now I’m mad at you! I had to go order the first pair of pants (basic black) and the overalls (dark blue). I’m retired, or I may have ordered the other jumpsuit. Thanks for making me spend money😂
I appreciate this haul because I have been wondering about Halara. Loved this haul and your comments about the plus-sized beautiful body! I really want a jumpsuit, and this one looked great on you! I loved the dress, though have never had great luck with crossovers...loved how it looked though. Loved all the things you showed!!! Well, I will order from them now!
Hi Meredith, I just wanted to thank you. I placed a Halara order for sensible classic looking work pants using your code and when the items came I loved 80 percent of them, returned the rest for a slight size issue. I opted for a gift card instead of a refund, which will work great now that I have figured out my best style. I have really really wanted to order a pair of white pants for summer but didn’t, because I thought they might make me look bigger. I came back to this video to get an item name, watched the video again, and this time the words you said about loving yourself as you are while working on yourself finally sunk in. I have seen you wear white and you look lovely. I’m getting my white pants, and feel excited and happy about it, I think I will look darling. Thanks so much for your positivity, sensibleness, and your style. Sometimes we just need a friend to remind us we deserve nice things.
I was worried about the pink pants, but they were cute. I would wear all of those… they looked so comfy. I think I could definitely size down. I do remember the FedEx man. 😂
Fun hall. My daughter has a couple halara leggings and loves them. On you, I didn't like the skirt/shorts item. The band around the belly just hits you wrong, IMHO, and the last item is gorgeous on you, love it with the belt but I'd maybe rethink the "stitch" as you may need the room to get in and out of it. How about a tiny snap?
lol! Yes I remember the fedex man. I had a similar issue back in the day, when LALaw & Susan Dey blouses were all the rage. I flashed in a restaurant with coworkers present, but they missed the show and I was so embarrassed. ❤
Ps I loved those pink pants and everything else too.
Regarding the wide-leg vs skinny-leg vs anything-in-between pants debate, I honestly think you look quite good in any of them, as long as they fit properly. I'd love to see you play with silhouettes and experiment with different cuts and styles, especially as you've come quite a ways in how you see your body. (I selfishly want you to enter your shorts era so I can see how some wildly different styles sit at different points, but that's a separate matter. pants of many styles are fun!)
Wondering if you would do a video on the best fitting jeans? As an apple shape, I can't seem to find a pair that fit comfortably. Thank you. I really enjoy your content and style philosophy.
I don't think I've ever seen a hair style on you that I wasn't a fan of, this one looks mighty similar to my own atm 😁Who could forget the FedEx story?! 😂 Never opposed to a retelling if it turns out there's people who missed the first telling though!
I liked the first pink pants and black blouse. Thought it looked chic and made you look thin. I looked at Halara but not for me. Thanks for sharing different shops.
Excellent choices! I think you should send the light blue jumpsuit back & get your proper size though because it looks like it's too big.
Taller individuals can get away with wide leg pants but for me who is short, they look dumpy.
Really liked the black top, but I would have put a contrasting lace camisole underneath.
I didn't expect to like the slacks but they looked great on you!❤ and you could definitely wear the overalls to the office! Great haul.
So far we are at bib overalls and I have not seen anything that I don’t like. I think the bibs would really look cute with black and white stripes. Fun to know you can pick choose what you like by what looks best and not by 😊 you can fit into. You’re looking great! 😊
I love your reviews and your positive attitude! Thank you for the detailed descriptions.
I love the black overalls the most. Just looks very comfortable as well as good on.
Thank you- I really appreciate you watching ❤️❤️
Some interesting pieces. I like the unexpectedness of some of them😊😊
I don’t see the skirt as athletic wear! I see date night & girls night out.
lol yea I remember one of those embarrassing moments that became funny
Every thing you have today was absolutely amazing and everything looked so very great on you , you rocked it all . Can’t wait to see what the next order will be. Have a great week and wear everything you have there too work and play .
This really was surprising, who knew! And yes I laughed so hard when you told the fedex man story.
Canadian fan here. I just love you! You look beautiful in everything but I do wonder how those pants would look on your tummy if you sat down. I have never been a fan of pleated pants. Those jumpsuits! Wonderful. The last one could totally be dressed up. I did not like the skirt. I have come to dislike uneven hems and cold shoulder tops. I think because the market was flooded with them. Love to your sweet doggie.
Love the haul everything looks great ❤
I really like the pink pants on you!
That last jumpsuit looked much better on you than it did the model. I would definitely size down and keep that one.
Well, I will take ‘that looks better on you than the model’ any day!! I really considered sizing down initially, but being right between the sizes, and them carrying activewear, I was concerned that the smaller size would do some serious clinging. Not the case with this one!
Honestly I loved them all on you❣️
Especially the jumpsuits❣️
How did I miss the FedEx story?😂
I need to reshare it, but I’ll give you the ‘in a nutshell’ version!!
I was wearing one of those wrap tops from Bloomchic that started crossing over at the bust, where it had a snap, and then was open to the waist.
One day, one side of the snap decided to come unsewn and join the other, making my shirt gape exposing my entire bra and upper belly. I didn’t realize this until my FedEx man asked to use the restroom after talking to me for a few minutes!!!
So, I’m exposed, and he is in the restroom! I put a paper clip on my shirt, he came out, and we have both done a delightful job at pretending it never happened for over a year now!! 🤣🤣🤣
Like the green with black floral. Don't care for black top. Like black overalls but the blouse you paired with it.
Thank you, Susan! I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!
Are you keeping everything? I liked it all. The flower top did change looks. Loved it all, especially the black jumper. 💝💝
I am keeping everything for now! Halara let me choose the clothes that I wanted for a video. I may end up culling the skirt at some point, but it depends on how I feel about it on a walk!
Hahaha I blurted out FED EX man when you put this last jump suit on .. my husband thought I was insane ❤... I'm going shopping now . Thanks for another fantastic video.
Hahaha!! I love it, Bren 🤣
Hi Meredith! 🙋🏻♀️
I'm not an active wear fan. Thank you for showcasing another side of Halara.
I especially liked the Rayon blend slacks. (Hope they come in lots of pretty colors) I'm a hot bodied woman and need the breathability of natural fiber clothing.
Thank you, Brenda! I am going to work with them again, but I think that comfy clothes in disguise is so much more fun than activewear!! I hear you on the hot bodied- it is so rough in the summer!
I am going to try those overalls!
Hi Meredith hope you are well, luv watching all your videos in England and for a plus size woman Wow wow wow! you looked absolutely amazing in all the clothes you tried on today especially the grey V neck jumpsuit Halara is definitely suited to your style the materials flow over your curvy figure just seamlessly. Personal question were you wearing shape wear in this video? Coz you just looked amazing in everything. Kind regards Lynnie x🌻x
Hey Lynnie, thank you! The shapewear answer is pretty much yes- I typically wear high waisted shorts/shapewear by Yitty/Fabletics daily, but right now I am not able to wear that. I had hernia surgery at the end of May and have a little complication that is supposed to remedy itself. Because of that I am wearing this abdominal binder and nylon shorts over it to make it not look lumpy at the Velcro.
I hope that wasn’t too much information! It just wasn’t a simple yes!
First time commenting, but I love all of your videos! We don't always share the same taste (to each her own) but we DO share a body type (I'm 6' tall and size 20/22). Seeing how things fit on you is super helpful, especially with length. I have to say this was my favorite haul you've ever done - I thought everything looked so good on you. I went on the Halara site as soon as I finished the video and bought several of the pieces you modeled. Keep doing a great job, Meredith. Love you and your positive attitude.
Janet, thank you so much! I really appreciate you taking the time to comment and share your thoughts.
We are very similar in size! I always feel like it is refreshing when I see a model that reflects my body type on a website because I don’t have to imagine what things will look like on me - that is one of the biggest reasons that I have continued doing this (and, I really like trying on clothes!).
Not having the same taste is natural- if we all liked the same stuff, the fashion industry wouldn’t be as vast and amazing as it is!
I really appreciate you!!
Thank you Meredith for another uplifting video. Really appreciate you ❤
Thank you for watching, Michelle ❤️❤️
The pink pants are a winner, they looked great. I wouldn't have thought to look to Halara for clothes like this, but I'm always looking for good looking clothes that are wicking for travel. I have to do a lot of "sink laundry" when I'm traveling, so quick drying is always great--good looking, even better.
Oh, Jill, I hadn’t even thought about that as a perk of sweat wicking!
You wear that light gray jumpsuit to the office and FedEx man will come to the office everyday of the week! And that is my favorite outfit and that belt totally finished it off. I’m not a green girl but really, I liked everything you tried! I’ve shied away from this brand before but I’ll look again! I hope your day is as amazing as you are Meredith! 😊😊😊
Hahaha- you crack me up on the FedEx man!! You know, I think their activewear is pretty good for low impact exercise, but struggled with it rolling at Pure Barre. That said, I was so impressed with this stuff all around!! I think they need to branch out into more super-comfy workwear!
Knowing that you are 5’10” I can see that everything would be very long on me. Since I don’t sew hemming is an extra expense. That being said you’ve convinced me to try
Halara.
Susan, they do carry petite sizing, but it looks like it is about 2” shorter (26.5” inseam, I believe)
I remember the FedEx man story! Lol 😄 I loved this haul! I’ve seen Halara but wasn’t sure. Watching you makes me want to order! 🤗
🤣🤣 on my FedEx man!
I am so happy that Halara is branching out, these were really comfortable and stylish, but I never would have thought to look at them for jumpsuits or dress pants!
I have worn several pairs of their workout leggings- after a good amount of time, I really think that they are great for walking or low impact activity. When I wear them to Pure Barre, they will roll down. That said, the ones that perform the best at pure Barre (Athleta, Lululemon, and this Amazon knock off pair) are really tight and not comfortable walking- so they all have their place!
I love love your attitude. You inspire me. This haul is amazing, I thorough all of them were keepers. I don’t wear pink but the pants looked awesome on you.
Thank you so much, Michelle! Pink likes to blend in with me, but I always try it. It seems to work better on bottom!
Keep wearing those wide legs!
How do you think that waffle jumpsuit would fall on a shorter lady? 5’2”
Hey Dana, thank you! I know that the regular would be too long, they do have petite sizing, but it looks to be only about 2 inches shorter. It looks like they have a 26.5” inseam. I wish that I could tell you more definitively! halara.link/s/12jcY74oYa
I thought all of these looked great on you. I really appreciate your descriptions of the design details and the way you described the fabrics. I’ve watched other reviews yours actually answered all the questions that were keeping me from making a purchase!!
Glenda, that is awesome to hear! If I ever do not answer a question, please ask me!
My only comment is that you need to up your game with shoes. The right shoe makes the outfit. So many things just don’t vibe due to the shoes you wear. However, I still enjoy you so very much.😊Keep up the great job you do.
I struggle so much with shoes. I wear a 12 and it cuts out a lot of options. I’ll work on upping my game!
Nov to March is a thing ! Thanks for the smile and the haul review. A lot of your videos content just resonates with me.
With that said May /June was my weight loss month. 6 pounds and only my wrists got thinner!!
Thank you so much! Congratulations on 6 pounds- those bracelets and watches are probably feeling so free!! ❤️❤️
Great choices
T hanks❤
It's not up to me but I really really loved all the outfits you looked beautiful but I didn't like the skirt. The pink pants wow. Love watching you
I really appreciate you sharing your opinion!!
I just went to the website looking for the black top. I did the plus + curvy tops and couldn’t find it.
I just checked using my link and it isn’t showing up, let me write my contact there and get back to you! Thank you for letting me know!
I hope they still have some of those pieces in stock. I can’t wait to try them. P.S. You are looking fabulous 💗
Thank you so much, Kathy!!! ❤️❤️
❤ I really loved the black jumpsuit, but was wondering how well it handles when going to the bathroom 😂 I have to go more often these days and don't relish the struggle. It seems like it may be able to slip off the shoulders and past the hips without unbuttoning the straps. 🤔 Please let us know, thanks!
Ooh, I wore it this weekend and unbuttoned one shoulder- but I didn’t try to slip it off- I’ll try it this evening and let you know!
Great video! Really liked them all just not the black jump suit as much.❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much, Delores! I really appreciate you watching and letting me know your thoughts!
I really thought that the black jumpsuit was nice you looked really nice in several others, too.
Thank you so much, Kathleen!! I wore the jumpsuit this weekend and it was really comfortable!
I love the jumpsuits 😍
This was a great haul. Meridith it was all very good and office appropriate imo. Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much, Susan!
Ok that last jumpsuit really surprised me. It looked really great!
That was fave on her, too.
Love the black overalls. Please size down in the icy blue. You will be happier.
I think you are right, Sandra!
Loved your Happy story
I love the wide leg style but at 5’ I feel like a fire plug lol. Also bathroom visits make me feel like I’m stripping.
Kerry, I hear you on the bathroom trips, I have gotten less uncomfortable- but having just a bra on on top is a little awkward!
I love your dog...style consultant with a beard.
Ha!! Thank you!!! Lulu will approve any fashion choice as long as it comes with some love and playtime!!
I like your videos!! Your energy is great! Keep up the good work girl!! ❤❤
Thank you so much!!
Another happy girl here. Thanks for sharing your journey.
I love it!! Keep up the happy, my friend ❤️❤️❤️
Just starting to watch this video, but I had to take a break and say how extra pretty you look today. 💝💝
Thank you so much (I’m responding to comments in reverse order- so I got to your first one last!). I really appreciate your kindness!!
Luv the haul today!
Great haul. I’d like to try the jumpsuit. I’m short though
Judy, they do carry petites, I think it only shortens the length by 2”, but I did not mention that while filming.
You are teaching "happy girl era" to us, your viewers. Thank you!
Thank you, Linda- we got this, Friend!!
IYKYK…LOL. love the fedex story..😂
🤣🤣🤣
The blue skirt is fun and flowy. Love it!
Thank you, Annaleigh! I thought that one was so much fun, too!
Great Clothes!
I am in love with the dress you have on throughout the video. Where is it from?
It is from Bloomchic, let me find the link- I think that one was around Easter… ok, dang- I just looked and it is sold out. It is from this video: ruclips.net/video/KzR--2AJyww/видео.htmlsi=m3bnlz9Su69qZXvf
Love your energy😊 You looked great in all the outfits
Thank you so much!!
What kind of puppy dog is it a labradoodle 😊
Close, Lulu is a Sheepadoodle- standard poodle/old English Sheepdog. Just full of life and silliness!
Very pretty outfits and love the dress
Thank you so much!
I love the pale blue jump suit. It’s so classy on you!
Thank you, Bettina! I was surprised by how nice that one was!
Your introduction was superb!
Thank you so much 😀
Keep them ALL❣️ You look great ❤
Thank you, Sherry!!
❤❤❤
