This is for the plus size fashionistas...

Okay, so I know some of you ladies will feel me on this. As much as I have loved Lane Bryant for the past decade, I am very happy to be saying "Sayonara" forever to her. She has been good to me,

Sorry, pressed send prematurely. Anyway, she has been good to me, but I hated the fact that if I was going to an event, I knew there was a real possibility that me and the other chubby girls might be able to pass as a singing group because we are all wearing the same 2 or 3 outfits. Granted, I know there are other options for plus size ladies, but LB was my safety net. I recently bought a couple of pieces there, but I am just about sized out of the store.I am pleased to report that I just bought a bunch of outfits from OLd Navy and Macy's in size 16 and XL. Not bad from 24-26 and 3XL. All my bigger stuff is in bags ready to give away. Feels good. But it feels weird not to have to shop in one or two stores (Torrid was my other fave), but I am rediscovering my style since I have options. So so long, old friend. I may miss ya a little, but I WON'T be back!

I love being able to go into a 'reg' store & be able to shop... i dont have to go to the 3rd floor or basement in the far back were all the over sized clothes are hidden...

Lynn - I feel you! Congratulations on your NSV! Lane Bryant and Catherine's are the only plus size stores in my area (and Catherine's doesn't often appeal to me). I am scheduled for surgery on the 10 th and the preop diet has loosened me out of the 24 pants (not shirts - long way to go on the top! I'm planning to wear alt of maxi dresses over the next few months so I can get away with not buying a lot of clothes until I'm close to goal.

I found a lot of nice plus sized clothes at dress barn. They have larger clothes on one side of the store and normal clothes on the other. My goal is to go back and shop on the other side and say so long to the plus sized clothes.

I just found Torrid!I totally love that place. They have size 1 and 0 and I don't consider that plus size, considering I was wearing 3 and4x. Since I am only 5ft tall it takes somewhat larger clothes than taller women,but hey, I am down 101 lbs. I am addicted to Torrid, their babydollcami's buy 1 get 1 free on the clearance rack
