Favorite Clothing Stores



Recommended Posts

Okay, since I am going to be up all night sitting in my hotel room waiting on news about my in-laws I had to think of something to do so here it is.

I decided I would start shopping (online) for some additions to my fall wardrobe and started thinking I should find some more places to shop. I prefer to shop in the stores but still do alot online.

What is your favorite store?

For online shopping, Junonia. Very comfy shorts and I like their long seashell T's. Modest swimsuits too. Unfortunately way too pricey!

In person, for non-sport clothing, I like Catherine's Plus Sizes. Keep in mind that I'm 35. In my 20's I'd shop at Lane Bryant (in person, not the catalog) but nowadays most of their clothes seemed aimed at a younger crowd. Or else I'm just not that trendy. Definitely not trendy, now that I think about it. wink.gif

I like Ebay. At my heavyiest weight I had a hard time finding clothes to fit me without driving almost 70 miles one way. Local merchants only carry up to a 26/28 and I couldnt fit in them. The Avenue has nice stuff too, but they are kind of pricey. www.jms.com and www.roamans.com also have nice stuff.

I like Ebay too. I have gotten all my new clothing through garage sales or traded the old for my size at a used clothing store..

I am ALL ABOUT Avenue (avenue.com). LOVE that store, pretty much everything in my closet is from there. Trick is to wait for their sales and they ALWAYS put things on sale. Plus they also send lots of coupons that you can use on top of the sale price. Yay! alight.com is also a good spot.

Silhouettes.com, AND I think they have free shipping on purchases over $125.00. Their clothes are very roomy and they even have some 12w. Get on their mailing list for email sales and get their catalogue.

Code for free shipment: FREESHP

I love JJill--in person and they have great end of the season sales on line! I find they are generously cut/roomy and stylish without me looking like I am trying to be 20 years old!

I buy most of my clothes from HSN.com, almost all the designers on that site have plus size clothing. I buy a lot of Diane Gillman Designs, and I only buy when they are on clearance. Also, Coldwater Creek Outlet online, they have great sales, Just bot a beautiful red suede jacket, for fall, $109.00 on sale for $29.00.

I love all of them, but especially,

Dillards

Macy's

Gap

Kids Gap

Oh, well, I love to many to list.

I don't do too much online shopping, too much trouble fitting into clothes at the store, so can't imagine trying to buy online.

I shop at Ross every two weeks because they have a wide variety of "disposable" clothes. I get bored easy so I only wear things a few times, and Ross has tons of different designer labels for really cheap. During the holidays I splurge on big ticket items that stay in my wardrobe for life - Nordstrom is my fave, but I also love Dillard's.

I believe you are all making this up. "Favorite clothing stores?" As if. Enjoy going shopping? As if.

I cannot imaging clothes shopping as a "favorite" anything.

Hi All,

Dots is great as they have both plus and regular sizes, and everything is under $20 which is also great when your weight is changing so quickly.

I like Coldwater Creek (check the outlet tab), Lands End, Old Navy (online has a great selection of plus size, if you're still a plus size!), Ebay, and in person, Ross or Marshalls. I love a good deal! Cindy

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
