I'm a size 18 waist, 16 hips, and L-XL top depending on the chest cut. Finding clothes that aren't hideous is a nightmare. 18 is also one of the most popular plus sizes, so if I do find something that isn't so horrifically ugly I would need paid to wear it, the store probably is out of everything other than 14 or 24. The only times I can find pretty/dressy things is if I am willing to spend an arm and a leg on each item, and we are talking around $50 a pop here. Less than a month ago, I started shopping to build my professional wardrobe since in around 2 years I will need to start interning and whatnot. 19 stores and I bought one pair of pants for $42. The blouses were around $45, the dress jackets were over $50, and two piece sweater sets were over $60. I also have to take into consideration that all these things must cover about 98% of my tattoos as well, so no scoop necked things or even V-neck. And yeah, it is too damn hot in TN to layer although the buildings generally are cold enough that I could

I *completely* understand the desire to loose weight simply to be able to get more clothes to fit! I've had the same thought for some time now, but I have to admit, I've not had quite the struggle you have! I am sorry to hear that
