Re: Plus sized clothing for women 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
I too shop at all those already mentioned, but also, ts14plus which has a website and stores in NZ, virtushop( virtushop.com.au) is a sister store to TS which is australian and lovely, coming soon to Hamilton ! Sara from ezibuy. If you are a size 18 - 20 its worth checking out some of the (normal) size labels in farmers, plenty of them fit that size and there's nothing wrong with the prices.
Sometimes I think we would be better off doing laybys on more expensive well cut classics than buying cheap clothes just because they fit ! Goodluck out there girls, the plus size clothes stores are opening all over the show, things are getting better all the time for us !

Re: Plus sized clothing for women 1 Year, 8 Months ago  
You are right MrsV. I have found we big girls are being much better catered for now . Now longer do we find we 'just have to take it' because it is the only thing we have seen in our size after looking for days !. We DO have a choice now, and we CAN be a whole lot more selective. Thank goodness for that. I still remember the times when I would go out shopping, really looking forward to buying something nice, that made me feel good, and I would go home again after trudging from one shop to another feeling absolutely yuk because the only think I saw in my size was shapeless, drab, and often really shoddily made. You would have money burning a hole in your pocket and yet not be able to find anything you could get enthusiastic about, to spend it on. Now, it is not unusual for me to have to decide between more than one garment at a time, because I like several of them but money is more limited . It still gives one a great morale boost though to have a successful shopping expedition.

I'm the opposite Lucky 7. I hate shopping especially for clothes but most especially for shoes, which I can never find. Money being tight is a shopping turn off too so maybe that's a positive! Lol.

Yes shoes AJ. I went today to buy a cream a pair of flat shoes for Summer, ...but only those awful ballet flats available.

They look dreadful on women of my age.

No, I am after those that have the sole & shaped all in one heel.

Very comfortable & wearable, so I'll head into K Mart where I bought my old ones from, & see what the buyer has dredged up there!!!

I'm in love with the City Chic store in Lower Hutt - I don't let myself actually go in unless I'm specially after something, otherwise I'd spend a small fortune each time hahaha.
