HSN

The first time I looked at HSN, I was pleasantly surprised. However, the selection changes frequently and there weren't that many great items today.

Cotton Eyelet Sleeveless Blouse

Fashion Bug

I have mixed feelings about Fashion Bug. There are some nice things, especially in their 1940 Studio line but most of their other items are a bit conservative.

I was really excited when I found Casual-Plus and ordered several items, without realizing that they were Junior Plus sized.

It's still a good store but just pay attention to the sizes when ordering.

Alloy

Most items at Alloy are too "young" for me but I love their selection of jeans in extended sizes and inseams. I dress them up for work and everyone always asks me where I bought them. Little do they know! ;-)

$39.50-$42.50
Sizes: 1-25; inseams: 30"-37"

alight.com

Mixed Bag Top
by Blue Plate at Alight
$39.00

Gap back cross jeans

These jeans are super comfy. The legs are a bit too straight for me (I'd prefer it if they were a bit more flared) but they are still very nice.

They're a nice wash too, not too blue, so they go with everything.

Store: Gap

My favorite jackets

I wear this denim jacket from Eddie Bauer with everything. It fits very nicely. The sleeves are fairly long which I like but I'm tall so they may be too long for some.

Store: Eddie Bauer

I also love this jacket from Land's End. I have it in black and it's extremely versatile.

Store: Land's End

Floral tank with tie at the waist

I bought this top last week and it was much cuter than I thought!
