Where To Shop For Clothes



Recommended Posts

It's that time again, I've gone down another size and I have none of this size in my closet so I need practically everything. I have a few options here in my home town but was wondering if anyone else had any tips or suggestions on buying clothes...on a tight budget.

I ebay a ton for clothes and also goodwill. I hit up thrifts too.

For work I had to give in and buy special pants but I found them at Walmart for 13 bucks.

I am entering into same phase. I just hinted to my husband that all of my smallest sizes are now too big. He told me I should just tighten my belt...I wanted to slap him. Anyway, I will be hitting Goodwill, consignment shops, and sale racks at Target and Walmart. I am also considering taking some of my nicer things to the taylor at the local drycleaner. I was told that you can have jeans, pants, dresses etc taken in for very reasonable prices. Also, TJMax ad Marshalls are good bets, especially the clearance racks.

Yes, I always hit TJ Maxx and Marshall's, I can easily find shirts for $5 on their clearence racks. I also have been going to the cheaper stores such as dots, rainbow, ect. There u can find pretty cheap and trendy clothing, the clothes don't last long, but I really can't get much wear out of them anyway. I have 2 pair of work pants dark neutral and I wear them all week, and just switch up my shirts. Good luck.

I am at the same point.. No more shopping in plus size stores!!!! yayy!! I just got into my first pair of size 16 jeans from New York & Co and Old Navy(but only bought the NY&Co ones)... soooooo excited! I am only buying one pair of jeans/pants for work at a time.. and I am going to try and skip a size.. so instead of buying 14's next.. I may try and go for the 12s!! ahhhhhhhhhh could 12s really be next??? yaHOOOO!!!!!!

I have actually found that buying a couple of dresses and skirts are working better and longer than the pants for work. I particularly like the faux wrap dresses. I can still use alot of my tops with a plain a-line black skirt. I have shopped alot on line- there are great bargains there at places you wouldn't think of- like Wal Mart and Target. And Penneys has done a complete makeover and their prices are quite reasonable.
