    I don't care about fashion so as long as something nominally fits I'm wearing it. I do plan a Goodwill run for clothes when I hit goal however.

    Oh yes and check out "Capsule closets" on Pinterest. How to make a whole bunch of outfits, usually a month's worth, out of a few basic, inexpensive pieces.

    I wear a lot of skater and maxi dresses for work. I have a small collection of tanks to help account for deeper plunging necklines as I lose. I also have a few belts I can throw on around my waist to tighten up the look of a dress if the elastic starts to get loose. I stick to stretchier jeans and tees for casual wear, which both can last me thru multiple dress sizes. I know that my unisex tshirt size near my goal weight is a large and I can't really go smaller without them being too short or tight in the shoulders (I'm 6'). I shop thrift stores and sales as much as possible.
    There are also often local swap/sale pages on Facebook where people are sometimes looking to switch out parts of their wardrobe for different sizes.
