I’m become more and more interested in vintage clothing lately, I love the idea of pre-loved clothing, the history of the pieces, and the thrill of the hunt. I haven’t actually done it yet for lack of time, but perhaps when I move to Austin, TX, I’ll explore some of the wonderful vintage shops there. Anyway, one of the things that does hold me back from vintage shopping is the fear of not being able to find anything in my size. I know that’s not necessarily accurate, but whenever I do browse some of my favorite online vintage boutiques, the pieces I love are WAY too small according to the measurements (I’m generally a size 12, but my hips are HUGE 
) and since I don’t have any experience with vintage shopping, the task seems daunting.
To make it easier, though, LA Vintage has just added a “Plus Size” section filled with lovely dresses, tops & skirts:

If you’re ever in the NYC we have a great collection of Plus Size Vintage clothing at Re/Dress NYC in Brooklyn. It’s one of the only plus size vintage/resale stores in the country.
It’s so hard to find plus size vintage that’s actually chic! Your post inspired us to write about plus size vintage fashion on Fitsmi.com. The post is called “Secondhand Chic” and we linked back to you. Check it out
