Disclaimer

These are personal favorites, not paid advertisements. I haven't seen all of the following on other fat-centric blogs and sites.

Go Shopping!

  • Marisota -- their clothes can also be found at www.simplybe.com/marisota for American shipping, but the line is extended at the UK site.
  • Torrid -- REAL bargain in clearance that have become my favorite clothes
  • Simply Be -- FAB British designs to size 28
  • J. Jill -- a little funky, always comfortable
  • Spiegel -- often overlooked but some tender beauties
  • Cold Water Creek -- classics all the way
  • Alloy -- plus junior sizes that will work beautifully witha sweater or actually have SLEEVES!
  • Victorian Trading Company -- the name pretty much says it all but if you really need to dress up, this is the place. Buy large.
  • Alight -- fab clothes to make you feel 16 years old. The best & most inexpensive black shruggie around this summer.
  • Monroe and Main -- these are young - middle-age professional and casual clothes that run to size 24
  • Southwest Indian Foundation -- some gorgeous clothes, over-the-moon jewelry & a really worthy cause
  • Making It Big (MiB Collection) to size 48W - & models who ARE the parts they play
  • Ashro -- calls itself "Afro-centric," but has some lovely fancy clothes and one or two Midtown lunch outfits
  • Blouse House -- blouses & more
  • Serengeti - a healthy mix of casual, business & dress-up clothes
  • Real Women Want - an eBay store that gathers plu-sizes frmo all over & has some stunners
  • Soft Surroundings has some delicious, slightly tipped clothes to 3 X
  • Casual Living -- some pleasant, casual surpises
  • FairyFairyLand -- GREAT funky tops! Imported from Asia so be sure to buy large
  • Territory Ahead -- some good finds in among the clothes that top out at size 16 -- especially shirts
  • The Pyramid Collection -- gothic & fantasy clothes that can be worn in Reality & large sizes at no extra cost
  • Catalog Favorites -- not my favorite but there's a swingjacket there I want
  • Complete Outfits -- extended sizes; I've bought Power Clothes here
  • Midnight Velvet -- not always but often enought that I consult it when looking for something great, whether it's formal, business or good casual
  • Brownstone Studio -- when I need a Power Suit
  • NorthStyle -- like Monterey Bay, lovely casuals with a touch of the West
  • Montery Bay -- nice casuals with a touch of camp

More reading assignments
