So I try on all my dresses and they used to fit like a glove and now they are all loose and I look terrible in them.
Fantastic news as this proves I'm losing!
Problem is I hate my wardrobe now. I HATE thrift store shopping. Is there any decent cheap online stores out there?
Thanks!☺

    Buying dresses/pants, etc has been a bad experience after loss
    You never can get your size just right.
    You end up not returning stuff by mail.

    Go to JCPenny on fridays when they have 40% off many things.
    Get the coupon online for 15%.
    Try things on. Have fun.
    They have many, many clearance racks at 60% off.

    I just ordered 4 maxi dresses on Amazon for less than $10 each. Do you want casual dresses or something fancier?

    If you have a Kohl's Rewards card you can find amazing deals online, especially the sale items. The best part is, you can order stuff online, and if you don't like it you can take it back to the store (provided you have one in your area) and not worry about shipping stuff back. And it has been my experience that Kohl's is wonderful taking stuff back, no hassles. Happy shopping!

    Look into schoola.com. They aren't perfect since it is a thrift store but I've been happy with the majority of purchases.

    Also check 6pm.com (subsidiary of Amazon) with lots of clothes. Only bummer is that 6pm.com does not have user ratings - returns are easy. And, Sierra Trading Post - once you place an order, they constantly send coupons, have free shipping days, etc. Easy to use site with lots of filter options. STP has user ratings and returns are easy.

    I work from home now, but if I had to wear business casual I would take my too big work clothes to a tailor and have them taken in.

    ThredUP.com it's an online consignment store. REALLY good prices, lots of brands and they're strict about the quality of clothes they accept. They even have new with tags items and you can sell your old stuff to them too.

    Try ThreadUp. It's online thrift so there's less sifting through junk. Look for some consignment stores instead of thrift. Personally, I'm a total thrift *kitten* and my closet is full of high quality clothes and I don't have any guilt about fast fashion, junk clothing.

    Hmm that would probably change my perspective of thrift shopping if it was online. I hate the experience of sifting through clothes plus I have 2 young kids so that makes the experience extra painful lol thanks for the input!!

    Sign up for Ricki's and Suzy Shier emails. Never pay full price at Ricki's if you can wait. Suzy's usually has a couple of 40% off sales throughout the year.

    I was going to suggest ThredUp too. I order a lot of my business clothes from there and they're always great quality, name brand and super affordable.

    Some of the stuff us trashy, IMO. But there's some cute stuff and the prices are good.

    Mostly hiking, athletic type clothing, but also some nice dressier clothes. If you sign up for their emails, they frequently send out coupons for an additional 20-40% off. They ship internationally.

    ThreadUp doesn't ship to Canada. American stores are no longer quite so cheap with the Canadian Dollar so low right now.

    I don't wear business casual so I don't have much suggestions there. Old Navy is cheap but not good quality for casual clothing, it's good for the in-between sizes that you are going to only need for a little while anyways.

    Could you wear two or three at a time? You live in Canada after all. B)

    Another excellent post from you :)

    Taking your favorite, semi new clothes to tailors is getting the best bang for your bucks.
