As for your poster: frequently check the fashion clearance sections at Evine.com and HSN .com. Both carry sizes up to 3x.

* Elbow length sleeves on tees. Some have a turned up cuff. I snip the threads and make that sleeve length FIT.
* Smooth cotton knits rather than polyester. No cables or nubby sweaters.
* Slip-on Keds instead of sneakers that say, “Little ole lady in tennis shoes.”
* Sandals with buckles or Velcro straps rather than a mule and lower heels than we used to wear on pumps.
* Try a skirt. I wear knit denim skirts instead of jeans sometimes, just past my knees.
* Longer, flat knit vests instead of puffer vests that add bulk, over a button-up blouse or shirt dress.

Go look at Saks 5th Ave, Neiman Marcus and other upscale stores online to see their plus-sizes. Find similar styles at moderately priced vendors like Norm Thompson, Appleseed’s, Macys, JC Penney. Then wait for markdowns and special sales to get quality garments at a lower price. It takes some watching, but you can get seasonal sale items for a fraction of the price. I’d rather have a lined cotton dress that was originally $119 at the same price as a $39 dress at half price. Patience pays.
