Her outfit looks better than Katie’s. Her top is better and her jeans aren’t corny.
Sturino launched her Squeaky Clean Hand Sanitizer via Megababe back in January 2020 because, in her own words, she wanted to create something that killed germs but didn't crack your hands.
"By March, the product sold out twice and the waitlist reached 15,000, but we were able to speed up our production to launch a bigger size as well as restock. We also launched the #MegababeCares initiative. We asked healthcare workers what would help most with long shifts, and sent anti-sweat, chafe, and odor products to provide comfort to these healthcare heroes. At the end of December, we launched our Squeaky Clean Sanitizing Wipes."
What's more, Sturino has continued with the Make My Size series. "It has been interesting to see how the media has covered weight gain and loss in quarantine. I always share that this is not news!" she said. Sturino added that she loves collaborating with Stich Fix and "their commitment to helping every woman find her personal style."

Sturino also had a straightforward but fundamental tip for anyone who's struggling with their self-confidence or is worried about their style right now: "I always say, put your confidence on first!"
She aims to empower women of all sizes, make them more confident, help them celebrate their style, and to raise awareness of size inclusivity. Her Instagram page already has over half a million followers who are raring to get her newest updates, looks, and insights about the beauty and fashion industry.

The length of the jacket and dress should be the same. That’s what makes the outfit on the left. Otherwise you’re just wearing a sundress and jacket.

Lily Collins
The New Yorker also runs her own weekly podcast called Boob Sweat which, like you could've probably guessed from the no-nonsense name, tackles taboo topics. From divorce to dating in your 30s and more.
Back in June 2020, Bored Panda spoke to Sturino about her campaigns, movements, and her plans for all of them. “Though size inclusivity in the fashion industry has made a lot of progress in the past few years, it is clear that there are still some brands that will never extend their range. We have a long way to go,” the activist told Bored Panda.
She explained that she, like many other women, feels frustrated when she can't find any fashionable clothes in her size while out shopping. “And I'm a blogger! In NYC!”

Simone Biles
Kendall Jenner
The jacket on the right isn’t form fitting enough and the lapels are tooooo big. Her shoes are cuter than Kendall’s though.
Fortunately, she's been able to make some changes to the industry, having partnered up with Veronica Beard and Diane Von Furstenberg, whose pieces she described to us as “fashionable and inclusive for all women.”
What's more, Sturino collaborates with Stitch Fix which she said was a “total ‘pinch me' moment.” With how many different projects Sturino works on, we sometimes wonder when she finds the time to get her beauty sleep.

It isn't french tucked! Tan is wearing something without a French tuck! The apocalypse is nigh!
Yara (يارا) Shahidi
Isla Fisher
Emma Roberts
That looks like a super comfy outfit. Proof you can be comfy and still cute
Kate Middleton

Honestly, slavishly following celeb looks does nothing for her different type of figure. She needs a more structured hourglass cut, she' needs to balance her top-heaviness.

Mindy Kaling
Alessandra Ambrosio

Does anybody else think she looks a bit like Kirstie Alley from a few years ago in this one?

The one on the left looks like a painters overalls without sleeves, where as the one on the right also looks like a painters overalls without sleeves.

First of all everything looks like she pulled it out of her dogs mouth. Iron / steam those clothes at the least. Second buy a size up being a stuffed dove is not cute. Third this is just a slap in the face of woman like mindy who has hard time loosing weight but does her best. And again there are clothes and shapes of clothes that suit different body types.smh
LOl "stuffed dove". I'm a size S small woman but sometimes i buy size M ou even L tops or shirts, depending of the shape of the clothes. Looking squeezed in an outfit is far from classy. In french we call it "saucisson" or being "saucissoned" for obvious reasons if you click on the wiki link with saucisson picture: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saucisson#/media/File:Saucisson_01.JPG

The reason most of the celebs looked good was because they chose clothes that were flattering to their size/shape and the clothes were ironed. She looks untidy with ill fitting clothes in most of these and therefore her message didn't translate well. Also the material of her clothes looks cheaper and the not ironing thing made it look even worse.
I read in some magazine (InStyle? Vogue?, IDK) that not only do celebs have stylists, but most of their "photogenic" clothes are custom tailored so they fit well. Almost nothing is just off the rack.
