Meeting his parents

Sorry if this is a double post, but TK seems to have eaten my post.

I'm meeting my FI's mom for the first time. We are taking a four hour flight and then a two hour bus to get to his family. I really want them all to like me.

I hate shopping and typically put it off until there are holes in all my clothes. Even then, I just order online. I'm looking for a source other than Old Navy. I normally get all my clothes there b/c they used to carry great plus size stuff. Lately the quality has been pretty awful and they have less and less cute options for bigger ladies.

Does anyone know a good source for cute flattering plus size clothing?

    I like to shop at JCPenney in the Women's section. I also like Avenue and Younkers for Her. I don't know if you have any of those stores where you're at, but they all have websites!

    Torrid and Lane Bryant are a couple of my faves. Also, Avenue, Igigi, and Kiyonna. All have websites.  Good Luck!

    Avenue has some super cute stuff....

    I avoid Lane Bryant because there prices are high and the quality of the material is pretty bad.  I actually complained and sent them a bunch of stuff back because it just fellt apart. 

    Macy's is a great option as well they have some great sales too.

    Another one is Ashley Stewart. Belk also carries plus-sized women's clothes. I also like Avenue and JcPenney.

    The Limited came out with a plus size line that they sell solely online. I haven't bought anything yet, but i've read good things. www.eloquii.com
