Before listing my picks from the site, the team very kindly let me wax lyrical about Big Girls Browse and why I started it, and it was lovely to see some of the reactions from the Etsy community.

One comment in particular really stood out to me. Niftyknits said "I've been trying to pretend I'm still a UK14, not 16...but this gives me the courage to say heck - I'm a 16!!!"

I was so touched when I read that, because it sums up the exact reason I started this site. We live in a world where there's so much stigma attached to a stupid number printed on a clothes label, and there shouldn't be!
