Fall is in the air, and that means we can all break out out fall clothes. I have been asked many times in my DM’s where I buy my plus-size clothing, so here are my favorite things that are tried and true for a plus-size lady like me! This post is more of a sampling than a guide per se.
To be clear, I never post about what I wear or what you should wear! But so many of my followers have asked me what my go-to items are that it prompted this post. Who knows if this will become a regular post? Only time will tell.

Fall plus size clothing guide
Hue opaque tights: I love all Hue brand leggings and tights. All of their stuff is thick and not see-through. The tights are tights, not meant to be worn as leggings. These tights are made to wear under all those sweet fall dresses you have!
Chooka Wide calf rubber boots: I have large calves! When I found these boots, I was super happy. They are adjustable and have a memory foam insert that is cushy and comfortable.
Sheepskin insoles: Don’t hate me, but I love these sheepskin insoles! I bought them so I could be out in the cold and have my feet stay warm inside my rubber boots. Not only are they warm but they are super comfortable, and you can wear them for a long time.
Levi’s Trucker Jacket: Anyone who knows me knows I love my denim jackets. Currently, I have 7 of them. Levi’s makes one of the best fitting denim jackets out there for bigger ladies, in my opinion. Denim jackets are great for every season, especially fall!
Mustard colored scarf: Everyone loves this scarf! I have taken it around the world with me, and people seem to like it no matter where I go. I love that it is lightweight and extra big so you can tie it in many different ways and use it as a blanket on the plane.
Long Maxi and Short dress for boots: Even though it’s fall and getting chilly outside, I find that I still need to have a dress to wear for different occasions. I have this maxi in 5 different colors and love them all. I also have a few of these shorter dresses that pair well with all of my wide calf boots.
Grace Karen Cardigans: If I had to choose only one thing off of this list, it would be these cardigans. I love them. The fit and colors are perfect, and they are long enough to cover what I want to be covered. Perfect for the plus-size body.
The classic Ugg boot: Say what you will, I love my Uggs. I have worn Uggs every year for the past ten years and will continue because they make my feet all warm and happy!
Knit scarf: I love this scarf as well. It is enormous and looks excellent with a lot of different looks.
Plus-size from Amazon?
I also shop a ton on Zulily (shipping takes FOREVER!) and Mod Cloth online as well as Marshalls and Nordstrom Rack in the real world. Generally, I tend to wear flowy tops with a cardigan or denim jacket.
You may be wondering why all of these items are from Amazon? Well, being a plus-sizes person means that I can’t always shop in stores. I have to buy online and see if things will fit. So, all of these items I wear, own, and love and am passing them on to you!
What are your go-to fall pieces? Do you have any plus-size fall or winter gear that you swear by?

Thanks Melissa! I can’t wait to live in an area where I can buy clothes for cold weather! Also, I have an Anthropologie project I want you to dupe for me – a bouquet diffuser instead of sticks!

Send me the link to the anthro diffuser and I’ll see if I can make it!

I get the sticks, but is this just silk flowers in a vase? Surely not. If it is, it’s just stupid.
