Being Plus Size has it's advantages and it's disadvantages - on the negative side, shopping can be a nightmare because not every website has a plus size section, but on the positive side, I can eat all the pizza I want and I will still be plus size. RESULT! A lot of the websites mentioned are UK based but a few are available worldwide too.
I've been plus size all my life and so I have found some amazing websites to give me the fashion fix I need! Here's my top 10;-
1 - Asos Curve.
When Asos first stepped on the scene, I always remember being so jealous of the thinner girls being able to wear their lovely clothes and I used to pray they would bring out a plus size Fashion range and they did! Enter Asos Curve! Asos have catered to sizes 20-26 which I think sends out a really positive body image - so many brands nowadays are classing a size 14 as plus size when in fact the UK average is a size 16. Asos have released a whole load of on trend fashion and also work with other brands such as Little Mistress Curvy and Paper Dolls.
2 - Simply Be.
Simply Be always shows glamorous models in their adverts wearing fashionable affordable clothing and I always used to imagine I was in one of their adverts when I was walking down the street - LOL! Simply Be is one of my favorite websites for plus size fashion because they offer something for everyone. Whether you're 22 or 62 years old, you will find something on there to suit your taste. Some of my most popular outfits on here have been from Simply Be.
3 - Pink Clove
Pink Clove is pretty new to me! In fact until about a month ago I didn't know it existed but I am SO glad I do now! Everything is available in sizes 16-32 and there are so many different things available, from jumpsuits to skirts & dresses you will not be disappointed.
4 - Just Curvy
Just Curvy is another new one to me! Everything is available in sizes 12-26 and is well priced. There isn't a huge selection of products (in comparison to Simply Be or Asos for example) but the items they do have are really nice and I think there's something for every curvy girl here.
5 - Forever 21+
Forever 21 is an American brand that has low priced fashion but is bang on trend. A few years ago, they launched the F21+ range which is for us lovely plus size ladies. There is so much to choose from and with prices starting at £5 you can afford to experiment with different styles.
6 - Fashion World
Fashion World has been on the go for quite some time now and has the misconception that they only cater to middle aged women, however this isn't true at all! Fashion World not only have gorgeous styles for all ages, they also work with brands such as Ax Paris Curve and Angel Ribbons to bring us all the best fashion.
7 - New Look Inspire
New Look have hundreds of stores across the UK but by shopping online with New Look, there are online exclusive products which means you get to wear what a lot of people don't see in stores - little sneaky trick for you there!
8 - Yours Clothing
I have worked with Yours Clothing for a while now because they are a brand I truly believe in. They use real models who look like real gorgeous women without looking 'untouchable'. Hayley Hasselhoff is the new face of the brand and she is an absolute babe! Make sure you check out the latest collection at Yours.
9 - Boohoo+
Boohoo recently released their plus size collection which has a lot of 'curve' adapted clothing - by that I mean a lot of the clothes in the standard collection have been adapted to suit curvier figures which is fantastic because there is nothing more annoying than seeing a dress you love in the standard collection and then getting to the plus size section and seeing it's not available in your size! I love this collection and as we all know, Boohoo is youthful & classy
10 - Ebay
Last but by no means least is ebay. You have no idea how much stuff I have bought on ebay that is all brand new and comes from a plus size ebay shop. It can be really affordable if you browse properly and 9/10 you will find exactly what you're looking for on Ebay. Definitely a firm favorite of mine for non designer stuff.
There you have it! My top 10 favorite plus size fashion websites!
Do you have any recommendations? I am always looking for new fashion websites to obsess over!
All My Love...
