Mine: yep! I wear shorty shorts that show some of my back leg cellulite (it is genetic, nothing I can do about it). I also wear bras that are wayyyyyyy push-up, but I like it.
I do. I have a couple dresses that still don't "fit'. D likes the way I look in them and wants me to wear them, despite the fact that they show off my gut well.

Skorts probably apply, although you all have made me feel better about wearing them.
I also have cargo pants that I wear on occasion b/c they are super comfy. I know they are frumpy and not stylish, but there are days where I just don't care.

Sure! I couldn't really afford new work slacks when I gained weight, so I still ram my fat butt into my smaller pairs. Sometimes the top button starts weeping. I wear long shirts to cover it all up.

I have a couple of pairs of pants that are probably pushing the boundaries of fitting since I gained a bit of weight. I wear them with longer tops so they're not obscene. I have such a hard time finding pants, and I'm trying to lose the weight that I gained.

Not really. My closest example might be wearing jeans when others are dressed up more, but my DH is super-casual so I like us to be dressed in the same arena. Does that make sense?
I love cute little tshirts, so even though they're not always age appropriate, I still wear them sometimes. They always fit properly, so it's not a size thing, it's just that they may have like a picture of Mighty Mouse on it or American Eagle Varsity Track, shirts like that. So basically they're more suited for a teenager.

I have some of these too. I'm never giving up Hello Kitty!

I guess it was mainly surprising to me because the only time I'm ever in a church is for weddings or funerals, and people tend to be dressed well for those.
I wear some pants that I probably shouldn't because I have gained some weight.
And my work manual (but not my actual boss) would say that my shoes 98% are not work appropriate. (To be fair, their policy states no open toe, no open heel, nothing higher than two inches, no "non-natural" color on your toes, and nothing with too much color.) Yeah, I am thankful my boss a) wears the same stuff I do, b) doesn't care, and c) no one else cares.
I wore pants that were practically falling off of me for a few months b/c I refused to buy new ones till I could buy an even smaller size. And I've done the reverse too.
White pants. I'm sure I look like an oompa-loompa.
I bought my first pair of white pants for Vegas, and I wore them in Florida last weekend too. Never mind that my ass/thighs are the fattest part of my body and VS sizes run smaller than NY&Co so they're pretty tight.
You couldn't look like an oompa loompa if you tried!

I wear big jeans because I love the brand and couldn't find a smaller size. They're always sinking down so I cannot go out without a belt. If I slide my phone in the pocket, they will be on the floor in an instant.
