I know we are in the process of losing weight, but meanwhile, where do you shop? I'm a boarderline woman and its hard for me to find clothes. Most are too small and then some are too big. I NEED to find a cute dress ASAP and I"m stuck! I"m in southern Cali (if that helps).

    Try Torid or JcPenny's. Kind of depends what type of dress you're looking for.

    Additionelle. They have an MXM section for younger women with a little more style like the stuff you find in places like stitches, abercrome etc.

    torrid.com

    they have vintage, sexy, edgy, summer, really anything you could want & usually have a few pages to try from.
    i LOVE torrid & reccommend them for everyone.

    i'm also on the edge of being plus-sized, and i usually wear a 0-1 in their clothing.

    Well Im in Long Beach. Island plus is cool. Its downtown. its a cheap store its good for a one time outfit. something quick and cute. also long beach town center has a nice plus/jr size store. Torrid is expensive and there clothes are huge to me and forever 21 is nice but usually everyone shops there.

    I've been to torrid before and i"m right with you, usually 0-1 but I'm not a fan of their clothing. I can get lucky in there sometimes, but its not a place I usually expect to find something

    Torrid is amazing. I used to shop at Lane Bryant, but I find that the clothes there are often a bit more...mature? Plus, they cost a bit more. I'm twenty-three and need something cute! Torrid is constantly sending me e-mails with fantastic deals, and I find it hard to resist!

    That being said, Lane Bryant is the place to go if you need a professional outfit.
