Modest summer work clothing for a short and fat gal

[androgenie]

I feel like I'm asking for a miracle here!  I've gained weight (about a size 20 right now) and moved to a warmer climate, so I'm in desperate need of summer weight clothes!  At least half-length sleeves on shirts, neckline can be dealt with using tanktops, not really fitted.  Either pants or long skirts (I'm short, so 34 inches is ankle length

I don't know what your price range is, but I'd recommend the stores on OneStopPlus if you're on a budget. I find it easier to go to each individual website, but ymmv.

Seconded! I also really like www.Roamans.com. JC Penney online has a great clearance section, too.

I am a big fan of: http://www.silhouettes.com/
http://www.modestapparelusa.com/plus_size_dresses.html (some of the things on this website are too dowdy for my taste, but there are some nice things)

I'm also all about Old Navy. They're XXL size is very forgiving (I range in size between 18-20, depending on what the outfit is and how soon it is after lunch! **LOL**) and I find I can things that fit. Plus, a lot of their material is really lightweight, which makes it friendly for warmer climates.

Good luck! Let us know how you make out!
