tesser85 38 Posted January 22, 2014 Hello Colorado peeps! I am hoping someone can help me find a good resale shop in the Denver metro area? I need some nicer clothes (pant suits, blazers, etc.) for a conference that I have to attend in late February, and I really don't want to buy anything new since I'm still losing and I have a long way to go. I am between 14-16 right now, so I need a shop that has a decent selection of plus sizes. I'd appreciate any ideas that you have! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I will say I, unfortunately, had to get a size up (eating WAY to much after quitting smoking and prior to surgery) and found that there are some pretty good after holiday sales out there...I got a pair of dress pants at Target (size 16) for $6 and dress sweaters for $5-$7. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've gone to one called "My Best Friends Closet", they have a store in North Field and another in the Orchard. I've also had great luck at Mile High Thrift Store for work clothes. I started in a 22 and have found Cold Water Creek and LB slacks and jackets in 16's and 18's. Edited January 22, 2014 by yjt45 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M2G 1,836 Posted January 23, 2014 I really like Unique in Aurora, I give myself at LEAST an hour to go through everything. The only downside to Unique is that you can't return anything. Goodwill I believe their policy is 10 days with tags and receipts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NisceeB 5 Posted February 11, 2014 I love in the Westminster area. I was sleeved in Tijuana on January 10. My surgery went well but because of a doctor directed medication order I ended up with a major clot and dead intestine. Has anyone else had extra complications? I get very down that I can't go to the gym. I can't wear a pair of jeans because I have a wound vac on. Anyone else in Colorado been through something similar?

They carry all sizes but generally their inventory is mostly comprised of S-XL however, they do go up into the plus sizes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bludtkr 21 Posted February 13, 2014 Hello, I was sleeved by Dr. Brown on Monday February 10, I would be more than happy to help in any way.
