The new, simpering face of Torrid.com.
For those of you who are permitted by arbitrary sizing guidelines to shop in "regular sized" stores, Torrid is the fat cousin of Hot Topic. It's general modus operandi is punk, rockabilly and goth clothes for young fat women. They sell cute stuff, and I have a lot of it.
The website used to be all reds and purples and had a very youthculturey vibe, not unlike the Hot Topic. And now it looks an awful lot like a Cosmo (the magazine and the drink both!). I suspect it's supposed to appeal to the late-twenties folk like me who are the store's big customers, but it just makes me sulky.
