It is hard to find clothes! Try Lane Bryant they have awsome clothes! You dont need to cover your body up with baggy clothes they just make you look bigger!
Old Navy has some cool clothes too for plus size gals like us!
Dont listen to I love myself! Good luck!

Since you are just getting into feminine clothes, start slow, don't jump into a tight dress and heels.
Somethings that flatter larger women are good knits that don't show all the "humps"
Start by buying some boot cut and/or straight leg(yes people can wear them and look good, just not super high mom jeans :)(just below waist for you size) try to avoid skinny jeans and flare leg, they give larger bodies terrible shapes
sweater sets and layers will be good to start with.
Don't wear thick bulky clothes, they will make you look puffy
Girls can wear hoodies and look feminine just be careful of the size you buy. Hope that helps :)
If you don't want to take my word check out some stores that sell plus size teen/young woman clothes
lane Bryant
nordstroms
gap
old navy.....

go to JC Penny women's section, they can sometimes have nice ensembles put together already for you. Just duplicate what you see and like. Lane Bryant is also another store with pretty clothes. I love the flair jeans, makes the waist look smaller, and I think the peasant blouses that criss cross in the front with kicky patterns also look nice with princess sleeves (makes arms look smaller) Don't be ashamed of your body, show it off! The more you try to hide it, the bigger you look. Dress yourself with elegance, wear nice costume jewelry necklaces and earrings- you will feel so girly and confident! Don't buy clothes that are too small, they'll only make you look "fat". Buy the right size and remember, it's not plus size, it's 'bonus size'!

Start with the basics..
Black is always slimming.
Layers are good for plus sizes, because if you do it right, they add curves. (Like a tailored blazer)
Get a nice pair of fitted jeans. If there is an Old Navy or Lane Bryant by you, they have plus sizes of all different lengths and styles.
And for shoes, start small with the heel until you are comfortable.
It is always fun to play dress up!:)

I am a plus size woman (41) who was just like you when younger... grew up as a tomboy & even today more comfortable in ratty blue jean shorts & a tank top.
However, I have worked in both "Heavy-Duty, Professional Business" & "Business Casual" environments. So something businessness-like & lady-like are more what is needed at work.
Lane Bryant has some great modern clothes at reasonable prices.

Pants that have a straight leg or a slight flair will elongate your silouette and draw attention from your hips. I agree with fitted jackets. Actually, fit is probably the key to every piece you buy. stay away from baggy or boxy. A line skirts that hit above the knee work well. if you want to wear heels start with wedges with a back strap, they are easier to walk in. i would also suggest pieces that flatter your neck line like v-neck or scoops if you've got the assets! good luck!

that's sexier to be mendacity down, staring immediately on the digital camera with a come hither expression. That makes it attractive, with out you having to dress all sleazy. A plus sized woman can look only as solid in stockings as the different woman. the main needed situation is to not coach rolls, so positioned on a suitable that may not too tight when you consider that mendacity down can create fatrolls.

Yes there is don't let anyone tell you any different. There are a lot of ignorant people so don't let them get you down.

Good fitting clothes that are not tight or too baggy. Show off your good assets and hide the flab. Enjoy the new you.
