As a plus sized woman, I've had my fair share of struggles while shopping for clothing. It's too tight, too short, or it just doesn't compliment me the way it should. After lots of research, here are 5 places that are safe for you to go and spend your money at. Now, while I'm here advocating for plus sized women, all other body types should get some recognition: all bodies are beautiful. Every single body is gorgeous and no body should be shamed. Ever.

1. Lane Bryant

Yes, it's expensive, but if you need something professional, nice, or semi-formal, this is the place to go. From tee-shirts and jeans to semi formal dresses you can find anything you need in your size. I've never had any problems finding a comfortable fit in any clothing! Just be careful: you will spend your entire paycheck if you let yourself go. The clearance racks are honestly amazing, though! #PlusIsEqual

2. Torrid

Another place where you could potentially spend your entire paycheck, but damn will you look hot. #LoveYourself

3. AdoreMe

I love by AdoreMe. Their sizes are pretty true and their stuff is comfortable. They sell everything from T-Shirt bras to lingerie, you'll definitely find something for you. If you sign up for their VIP, you'll get your first set for $20. After that, sets are usually $39.95-$49.95, but it's definitely worth the money. Comfortable, nice, and easy to dress up or down. They always have sales and deals, so check it out now! #PlusIsSexy

4. Catherine's

I'm sure you're sensing a pattern: Plus size clothing is expensive. However, if you look around and follow deals, you can save some cash! Catherine's usually has some more casual clothing as well as some "RSVP Worthy" clothes as well!! #PlusIsBeautiful

5. Forever 21

Although it can be limited, it's extremely affordable. Probably the most affordable on the list. It may rip, but the top was so cheap that you don't even mind! #PlusIsOkay
