HELP!  Im looking for plus size stores for casual and dress clothes. Im lost... I know of Lane Bryant but thats about it.  I know there has to be some other places that dont cost a million dollars per item.

    Torrid, Fashion Bug, Dress Barn for Women, Kohl's sometimes has some good plus size clothes too, but I have found it depends on which Kohl's you go to.

    I'm always able to find something at Torrid. About half of my wardrobe comes from Torrid!

    I shop at Old Navy online...I'm usually able to save a bunch of money and returning items is easy if they don't fit.

    I have shopped Torrid in the past, but they're a bit too pricey for me.

    Ditto all PP, but Maurice's also has some cute stuff too. It's kind of hit or miss for me, but they sometimes have some really adorable things.

    I second Maurice's. Its the only place I shop for pants and tops.

    Don't remember which thread, but someone on this board mentioned eloquii.com a couple weeks ago - it's The Limited's plus size line.  Apparently they have a few B&M locations, but none near me.  They seem to be a bit on the pricey side, but their stuff looks really nice.

    Try Avenue. Great prices and good style. There are Avenue stores all over the place. Also try Kiyonna, mostly online. A little pricey but good stuff.

    I love Eloquii!  They're prices are higher, but they often run sales (40-50% off, BOGO). I find their clothes to be cut on the slightly generous side.  I've had to exchange a few items, but it's been an overall pleasant experience (but slow). I find the quality of their clothing to be superior to LB.  

    Old Navy is good too, but I've been disappointed in their tops lately.

    I am lucky that there is a plus sise boutique here in Milwaukee ( www.boutiquelarrieux.com ) that carries Igigi, Kyonna, Monif C, Anna Sholz, Kristin Miles, SWAK, Lundtrom and other great designers.  I have learned that I look best in tailored (not tight, not baggy) styles and am willing to spend a little more to get great fit, construction, and quality in clothes that will last.

    I don't like the styles of stores like Catherine's, Lane Bryant, etc.  It looks so old and mom-like.  I buy most of my clothes on simplybe.com, dorothyperkins.com, evansusa.com.  Target for basics tees and tanks, underwear and bras, and jeans.

    I have bought stuff from.... Lane Bryant, Kohls (this is where I've been getting most of my jeans), Cato, Dress Barn, Maurices, some JC Penny (but I feel like their stuff runs smaller), and a couple pieces from Torrid.  I used to shop at Old Navy a lot in high school but have found their quality to decrease in the last few years.

    90% of my clothes are from Lane Bryant

    I buy Silvers jeans sometimes at carson's
    I also like Maurices but don't go there often.
