you should start maybe sewing some of your own clothes so that way you can have clothes that r in fashion but they still fit you. I found some nice wool caprie pants at areopostal. they had some that were my size so you might look for clothes there :D

Get your bra fitted by a proffesional who can help you in a bra shop. As weird as it sounds try looking in maternity shops- I found some really great, nice fitting clothes there! Even stranger, but what is actually quite fashionable, is shopping in mens clothes stores. Generally their sizes are bigger and you can always dress manly clothes up to look more feminnine. If anyone asks what your doing in those shops just say your buying stuff for your boyfriend's birthday or a present for your newly pegnant aunty of something like that. :)

Skinny jeans don't flatter anyones thighs. Try normal jeans. Target and Jay- Jays have cheap ones. :)

I also don't wear tight clothes but don't wear baggy clothes either coz they make you look even bigger. Try wearing loose clothes but layering them with nice belts and accesories- it really helps!

Try opp shops- you can find really nice cheap stuff there, plus everything goes to charity! Jay- Jays and Target are also good for inexpensive clothing.

Never wear leggings or skinny jeans, they make your legs look massive. Try flowing sundresses/ maxi dresses, their great and really fashionable.

I would recommend wearing shirts and dresses that cut just below the bust. Maxi dresses are great too, because they are fashionable but also loose fitting and long. I find that very tight tops are very unflattering on my tummy and so I try to stick with flowy sort of shirts with a pair of jeans. Try to wear clothes that flatter your best features- i.e if you have a flabby stomach but a nice chest wear something loose around the stomach area that gathers at the bust. Also you should try maternity clothing- don't be put off- there are lots of beautiful clothes that can fit really well there!

girls, want to know a great tip on finding well fitting chlothes? i know its emmbaressing, but i found that maternity chlothes fit SOOO much better and are a TON cuter than regular plus size chlothes. i normally wear XL adult, but i fit into SMALL maternity. MEDIUM was falling off me.
