Because I still consider myself pretty young (I'll be 25 tomorrow..ack!), I like to dress trendy, but still mom-like too. I usually wear boot cut jeans and tshirts, either regular old tshirts or what I call "nice" t shirts (plain color, nothing on them, nicer material). I wear scrubs to work which is fantastic. It's like working in your pj's! I have a lot of luck at Lane Bryant, although I think their tops tend to shrink quite a bit once washed and dried. Old Navy has a wonderful "hip" plus size line, and most of their tops run about a size bigger than average. As far as fitted bottoms, they only go up to a 26 (I'm a 28 right now), but their lounge/pj pants in the size 26 are HUGE on me. They fall off me when I wear them, but they are so comfy! I also have a ton of luck on eBay, especially finding high-end designer plus size clothes for way cheaper.
I live in black clothes - either black pants and a colorful top (usually solid) or if the pants have color, I find I wear a black top. Or one of my favorites is black top and bottom with a red or purple jacket.
First time I have been to this board. Clothing is certainly an issue for me. I guess since I have not dealt with the reality of being so overweight I have minimized the need for clothes and buying/trying on clothes. I like to dress casual. Jeans are comfortable to me. Use to wear a lot of t-shirts. Try to wear solid classic style tops. I do enjoy having something that might be "in style" but don't want to appear dressing too young for my age. My stomach is my problem area. Have to wear something that hides the bulge. Sometime pants big enough for my waist look big everywhere else. I like to wear navy blue. Brown is a favorite as well as black. My accent color the past couple of years has been an interesting green( kind of lime,I guess). I have had fun with that! I never wear a dress anymore , rarely a skirt. No heels. I am very short so pant lengths are a concern. Some capris actually hit at my ankle. I have spring winter and summer hoodies. I prefer 3/4 length sleeves in tops. I use to wear some long tops(tunic like) But as I have gained weight I feel they only make me look bigger now probably because I am short.
I JUST ABOUT ALWAYS WEAR BLACK PANTS, OH I HAVE KHAKI AND GRAY BUT I MOSTLY WEAR BLACK AS THEY ARE SLIMMING AND LOOK BETTER TO ME. WHEN NOT AT WORK IT IS JOGGING PANTS USUALLY AS THE JEANS IRRATATE MY BACK AND MY SCAR ON MY TUMMY. AND OF COURSE MY T SHIRTS THAT ARE HUGE!!! AT WORK I WEAR NUETRAL TO COLORFUL SHIRTS, USUALLY SOLID BUT SOMETIMES I HAVE STRIPED SHIRTS WHEN I REALLY NEED TO DRESS UP INSTEAD OF DRESS CASUAL. I FIND MYSELF MORE OFTEN THAN NOT THESE DAYS KEEPING MY WORK CLOTHES ON IF WE GO ANYWHERE IN THE EVENING. LOL
I'm pretty boring, I usually wear knit pants and a tunic tshir or a polo shirt and comfy shoes. solid colors.

If they said black was illegal, I'd be naked!
