National Poetry Month is in the past, but as long as there is a moon in the sky, lesbians will be priming their purple pens to write poetry to whoever they love, or hell, even just like a little bit. I say this as a lesbian poet myself, we are the kings and queens of yearning. Nobody writes like a dyke. Lesbian poets are also kings and queens of style. Despite what you’ve heard about how lesbians dress poorly, a lesbian poet wearing 50 rings and three gold chains will have the girls throbbing.

If you’re a lesbian poet looking for your next fit, look no further, I’ve got you covered. Most of the featured retailers carry up to size 3X-4X so this is friendly for some plus-sized babes. As always, these looks are just guides, if you find something similar in your right size or in a better price range, grab it!
