On sale right now for $29.99. UPDATE: this item is no longer available, but there are similar cheap plus size items on the Lane Bryant clearance page.

Plus Size Cheap – Where to Buy

Tuesday, October 14th, 2008

This site gives a list of the best places online to find trendy plus size cheap women’s clothing.

I often get asked if I know of any sites that carry cute plus size cheap clothes. It seems all too often when we go to the plus size section we only see frumpy grandma clothes!

I’m a size 16 and I feel your pain. It’s hard to find plus size cheap clothes that are also CUTE, especially when you need something dressy. Macy’s is carrying nice stuff but they are expensive. Sometimes it seems as if you want to be in style, you have to pay big bucks. But there are places to get fashionable, plus size cheap clothing online.

Check out the following places online to find cute, plus size, cheap women’s clothing.

Alight and Sizeappeal are both devoted to plus size and have some great sale areas on their sites.

(The images shown here are all clothes from Alight. When you get to their site, click on “Shop by Boutique” and then scroll down to “sale items”.)

And for more fun options in every category of curvy, check out Diva Boutique.

Have you tried Lane Bryant? They have a nice online store, and if you have a mall nearby check out their clearance section in the back — you can find some nice plus size cheap clothes there.

You could try Lands’ End overstock section. They have really nice traditional clothing. I couldn’t call any of it frumpy. It is too nice of clothing.

If you go to jcpenny.com click on “women” then “juniors”.  They have lots of cute plus size outfits for reasonable prices.

Torrid is a store especially for plus sizes.

I love Coldwater Creek cause they have plus sizes, but they are not exactly cheap.  Sometimes they have really good sales and there is always a coupon for $25.00 off a $l00.00 purchase. The coupon is in magazines. Go online to get their catalog. I also love their costume jewelry.

You might also try Ross and Beals, which can have plus size cheap sale items. Also Old Navy, Gap and Banana Republic have young styles in plus size cheap clothes.

And Fashion Bug is an online store with a good plus size section.

Cute, cheap and chic – I am assuming that this is what any ‘Curvy Diva’ would want. Hope this list helps you find some really nice cute plus size cheap clothes.

Keep thriving…

Want to buy some women’s clothes that are plus size, cheap and trendy? Here’s a list of my favorite places to shop online for cheap plus size women’s clothing.

1. Torrid.com – need I say more? Torrid is a store exclusively for plus size women, and they have an excellent selection of plus size cheap clothing and accessories. Both the images here are of clothing from Torrid.  The denim skirt is $38 and the leggings are $15.

2.  CurvyChick.com – you’ll find a ton of shopping links along with a community of thousands of plus size women who can suggest all kinds of great plus size, cheap shopping stores and websites. You can create a profile there and post photos.  Women often post photos of themselves wearing plus size things they’ve bought, so it’s a great resource for seeing how clothes look on other curvy gals.  And check out the fashion and style message board – there’s lots of info there on shopping for items at all price points.

3. BiggerBras.com – check their sale page for plus size lingerie, swimwear and active wear.

7. Walmart has great line of fashionable plus size cheap clothes, including George, Metro7, and Faded Glory. The George and Metro7 lines look expensive but are actually pretty cheap to buy. I like that they have all the fashions the skinny chicks wear in the plus size department.

8. TjMaxx

9. Fashion Bug has a good plus-size section.

Happy shopping for plus size, cheap and trendy clothes!
