Plus-Size Clothing Sales

By Meieli Sawyer, About.com

Being budget conscious has never been more important, but we still need to shop for things like school clothes, work items, and casual gear. If you're a family person, you might need lots of comfortable clothes for staying at home (which usually need to be replaced quickly), and if you're a professional in an "image focused" field, you'll need to update your look frequently.

1. Macy's

Don't forget that Macy's has plus-size dresses, tops, and lingerie. It's not uncommon to head onto the website and find discounts of 50-70% off. When I shop at Macy's, I've found that the best way to find the best deals is to perform a simple search on their website and scanning for sales.

2. Missphit

Missphit discounts previous seasons, and sometimes you can find a sale that's really impressive-- 50% off. I like to mark down "optional" purchases and then buy them when they go on sale after purchasing your must-haves.

3. Alloy

Juniors shops with plus-size divisions often have the best sales. Don't forget that basics can be purchased from anywhere, and nobody has to know that you get a major markdown from teen shops-- even if you're forty. Isn't that the beauty of shopping online?

4. Svoboda

Looking for premium plus-size pieces? This is the place to go to score great sales around 30% off. While this isn't the deepest plus-size markdown you'll see, it's worth it if you have the savings: you'll wear your pieces more often, and they'll stick around longer, too.

5. Igigi

Shirts priced at 70% off? Sale accessories? This is my top stop. This store comes highly reommended to me from plus women who are on the higher end of the plus spectrum (26 and up). You can often get your size 32s for a steal at Igigi.
