6 Plus-Size Brands For Women You Might Not Know About, But Should

@alexmichaelmay / Instagram

I've been wearing plus size clothes for a lot of my life. It can be super discouraging sometimes but it doesn't have to be. There are so many brands that have the same clothes in plus sizes as their typical sizes and some who have even better clothes in plus sizes. Also, there is something for everyone's budget!

Here are six plus size brands you might or might not have heard of.

ASOS Curve

Instagram

This is one of my go-to stores! It sometimes takes awhile to ship because it's based in the UK but it's typically always worth the wait. For formals and things like that I buy my nice dresses here, as well as my casual clothes.

Torrid

Instagram

Torrid is a great brand for plus size girls! There's something for just about everyone there and they usually have super great sales.

Forever21+

Instagram

I've been using this brand for a long time. Forever21+ has lots of casual outfits and more recently I go there for cute tops for going out at night or with friends!

Old Navy

Instagram

Old Navy is just a fantastic brand! I really enjoy shopping there because they typically have all the same clothes in plus sizes as they do in regular sizes which isn't exactly something that all brands carry. Old Navy is my ultimate go-to for clothes!

Eloquii

Instagram

I haven't shopped Eloquii yet but from what I noticed on their website it's a lot of cute clothes. One thing that I have noticed compared to other brands mentioned is that it's a little more pricey but I'm sure it's definitely worth the cost.

H&M+

Instagram

I also haven't shopped this brand but from looking at the website it looks a lot like the other non-plus size clothes that H&M carries. Most of the items are basics and just general pieces that everyone should have in their closet.

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
