Izzy Votsis I’m sure you can relate to the frustration of trying to find clothes that are comfortable, cute and affordable. Many times, I have ventured to shopping centers in the hopes of finding something but often I am left disappointed. The unfortunate reality is that malls and shopping centers tend to be limited in their clothing options for us. So where do we find our plus size wardrobe essentials?
Sometimes, we try and squish ourselves into clothes that aren’t made for us, feeling like there aren’t any other options. But there are other options! Fortunately, online shopping exists and I have spent the last few years of my life scoping out where to get the best clothes for unique bodies like my own. Not only online shopping, but there are emerging plus size boutiques to shop at, in person… We will leave this for another day, right now, we are talking about online options to play in. Below are some new places for finding plus size fashion for any occasion!

I thought this was plus size clothes. (?) Plus size to me is clothing that goes thru sizes like 30 or a few sizes higher. These clothes only go to size 3x. What is a woman to do if she (me) is a size 28 or 30 top? Help.
