Fashion Bug here is one of the less expensive stores. We have so many
choices in larger sizes that they have to stay competitive and since
they have even less selection than the other stores they do that by
lowering prices below the other places. I guess it's all location.

It really is though. At Catherine's we had the same thing come in thise
past spring and summer. We're finally getting our fall merchandise which
is just beautiful this year. Keep your eyes open where you shop because
this is the time for fall merchandise to be coming in just about
everywhere. No pastels! :)

here called "Hills". I don't know if it's in any other area but I have had it
with that store and refuse to shop there any more. As soon as you walk into the
plus size section your eyes are assaulted by pastel EVERYWHERE. Where is it
written that overweight women will only wear sky blue, salmon pink, sunny
yellow and mint green?!?! All the spring & summer clothing for larger women are
items that I have seen my grandma wear on her way to the Bingo. Egads this is
sooo irritating. I am 28 years old & will not dress like someone 40 years my
senior just because I wear a size 20. Now don't get me wrong, there is nothing
wrong with these colors, but come on this is all they have for larger women!!
This is a well known department store in this area so you'd think they'd have
some fashion sense when purchasing clothes for the plus size woman. I refuse to
wear lemon yellow polyester pants with a matching yellow and white shell top.
K-Mart is a little better but not too much, everytime I go there I am accosted
with pictures of Miss Kathy "Any day now my eyebrows will grow together"
Ireland. Yuck.
I think this is such a shame, I'm on a tight budget & I want to be able to walk
into a store & buy something that I wouldn't be embarrassed to be seen in
without spending a ridiculous amount of money, like I'd have to if I were to go
somewhere like Lane Bryant. Hills and K-Mart have the lower prices but they
sure as hell don't have the selection or the style!!!

I'm from Toledo, Oh, and they have Hills, and I know what you mean! Buying
clothes is a truly frustrating experience when you're on a tight budget (and
maybe even if you're not). I occasionally find something decent at Target,
although that is hit or miss. For shirts, I've been known to buy mens,
although mens pants don't fit very well, since I have the waist-narrow-
relative-to-hips shape.
We have a store called Fashion Bug that has recently expanded its Plus
size sections. Their selection isn't great, but I find things there now
and then, and it's even better if they have a sale. Mind you, it's nothing
tremendous, nothing I consider really stylish, but for the most part, I've
given up trying to wear things I consider really attractive and just hope for
something that I don't hate. It's pretty depressing. I've considered
buying a sewing machine and learning to sew, but that's a big investment when
I don't know if I could do it.
Any suggestions, anyone?

Oh yes, silly me I forgot the damn flowers. Just what I wanted - to be attacked

I also forgot their sweatshirts in the winter with birdhouses on them. Don't

I think it may depend on what part of the country the shop is in. The Fashion
Bug down in Lewiston ID is very reasonably priced. I was peeking at a
gorgeous dress the other weekend that was only $40, and it wasn't even on
sale. I was able to pick up a nice half slip in a 26/28 for about $9.00
(several dollars less than Wal-Mart and it was actually my size). And there
was hardly any pastels in sight (even on the clearance rack). Now that my
dear darling is going to be getting a steady paycheck, I hope to be able to
fill in my wardrobe some. In the meantime, the sewing machine is set up full
time and my hubby gets to listen to the new creative ways I use swear words
(I love to sew, but it drives me bonkers).

The irritating thing is how much better one Fashion Bug is than
another (I've seen a simnilar complaint regarding Lane Bryant). In
Decatur (IL) I've found GREAT things, including one absolutely stunning
white denim jacket that laces up the back and has lace panels under the
laces and at the top of the sleeves. However, I no longer go to school
there, and the FB in Champaign stinks. I haven't seen anything there I
really *wanted* in wuite some time, except a couple shirts that were made
according to some arcane sizing system that placed everything three sizes
smaller than any other company's clothes ina any store I've ever been in.
It's really hard work finding good stuff, and I swear it's getting
harder. Sigh.

both advertise that they carry plus size clothing. One store goes up
to 28 and sometimes has 30, but the other one doesn't go above 20!

LOL! This is so true! There are a ton of LB's where I live (so Calif) so I do
shop there once in a while, but the styles tend to not be very sophisticated or
businesslike.
What makes it even more challenging is that until just recently there weren't
many plus-size petite styles either. (It still seems to be mostly limited to
jeans.) Try wearing something that's cut for a woman about 5'6" to 5'9" when
you are only 5'3". Talk about some LOW cut cleavage! It adds to the effect
that I am wearing my mother's clothes. Attractive AND professional, not.

I have found that Fashion Bug's sizes run small. Also they don't carry much of
my size (26/28) to begin with.

That seems to be the colors for the summer season, and I'm like you - I
hate it. Unfortunately, every store in town follows the same fashion
mavens, so that's pretty much all you have to choose from.

Is there an Avenue around? I found a lot of stuff there that I liked - and
none of it in pastels. I've gotten to the point now that when I find
something I like, I'll buy 2 or 3 of the same shirt in different colors.
If you have the option, I'd highly recommend buying a sewing machine - and
see if the store will throw in free lessons with your purchase. Some of
them will do that. Its worth it to get clothes that will fit your figure,
instead of an approximation. After all, not all size 22's have their
curves in the same places; a shirt will look completely different on a
long-waisted person than on a short-waisted person, etc. I buy a lot of
separates at stores, but all my dresses are handmade, and they fit better
than most of the store bought clothes.
The best thing about sewing for yourself is that, if you know what you're
doing, you can size up a Vogue pattern (if you have to...they're even
getting more open-minded about sizes) so that you can wear "designer
clothes" in a size 14 or a size 28, in whatever color or print you like.
Donna Karan doesn't want to design for fat woman? Tell her to stuff it
and make her dress in your size! :D

yeah, I generally wait for the sales....I can't remember the last time
I bought clothes that were actually in season :) I'm always buying
sweaters in May and June and shorts in September. :) I do not want to be

which leads me to a question....I've been thinking I ought to learn to sew.
Is this something a person could teach herself to do? I'm on a budget, and
so don't want to spend a lot on classes. And how about buying a used
machine, is that possible? Suggestions, anyone?

Black never goes out of style and I don't think there are enough clothes in black around!
What I'd really like is a silver pair of pants.... but alas, the only pair I could find
was a size 8... maybe if I buy two and sew it together... hmmm.. haha.

No mint green is a blue toned green (if we are talking about fashion colors),
and was popular in the late 80's. I have not seen mint green in a single store
this season, but have seen many variations of lime green. I know that the
Avenue did not carry a single variation of mint green this year, but carried
many variations of lime green. Mint green is most definetly not a sickly
color, but lime green will make most women (and I do mean most) look as if they
have a terminal illness of some type.
99% of Brunettes look awful in lime green, and about 20% of blondes look o.k.
in it and maybe about 30% of black women look good in it. I have never seen a
single customer look great in it, and am shocked at the number of women who
will buy it anyway.

Interesting . . . because lime green is literally my FAVORITE color . . . in
all its incarnations. I have to stop myself from buying things in this color
because otherwise my whole wardrobe would be in it.
I am a brown-eyed, fair-skinned brunette with rosy red cheeks and I think I
look decent in the color--but I can't explain my strange love for the color,
which I know a lot of people HATE.
I did try on one darker (more olive) version of this color and
discovered to my surprise that I couldn't wear it at all. Go figure . . .

Stacey K.
Rain,
FWIW, I've seen LOTS of beginning sewing classes around here. You might
check at your local fabric/quilt stores, and if they don't have them,
they could probably direct you to someplace that does. Also, I've seen
some community recreation programs that offer beginning sewing classes.
One of our local fabric stores offers all sorts of sewing classes from
beginning sewing to advanced quilt-making. The also sell machines-- new
and USED. (I've seen a new (very basic, but utilitarian, White) machine
for about $200, BTW. They also have trade-ins, so if you bought one of
those very basic machines and decide that you want more advanced
features, you could trade in for a credit toward another machine.) In
their sewing classes, the students have the option of using one of their
machines, or bringing in their own, so you could conceivably learn to
sew without ever owning a machine. You might look around for something
like that, if you're interested in learning.
Also, if you have a friend who sews, you might be able to ask them to
teach you some basics so you could at least try it out on their machine.
Re: getting a seamstress... I've had a couple occassions when I've had
(two different) seamstress make dresses for me, and I've been charged
$150/dress (NOT including the fabric and notions, which I provided).
Easier, certainly, than learning to sew, but it could be pretty
stressful on the wallet!

>sure as hell don't have the selection or the style!!!
I live in the Trenton, NJ area - have you tried Avenue Plus or Sizes Unlimited?
I know these are chains, cause I've seen stores in my travels - from Milford,
CT to Houston, TX.
Best time to buy is when they start putting everything on sale for 2/$39 - much
better quality than anything I have ever bought at Lane Bryants.
Kristin Satterlee
They sure do - check out local fabric stores, a lot of them have
sewing and other craft classes. :) Good luck! I begged for a sewing
machine for Xmas several years ago, got it, sewed some pillow cases and
then moved to a great but tiny apartment with NO ROOM for sewing projects.
Loaned my machine to a friend and she still has it. But when I move....
The first thing I ever sewed - on a friend's machine - was a
homecoming dress. Black taffeta with one of those skirts where the back
is floor-length and the front is knee-length (I'm sure there's a name for
that), lined with red satin. It was gorgeous. (Kirsten sewed in the
zipper for me, but....) Even a beginner can do impressive things with
some expert guidance. Have fun.

I love lime green too, and I think it goes well with my coloring. I am
black with a golden undertone. I even have a pair of lime green jeans
and pumps.
<RANT> Oh, and a thing that jerks my chain...in most color and make up
