AFFORDABLE STYLE INSPIRATION // 9 PLUS SIZE WORKWEAR OPTIONS TO SHOP!

I’m going to be honest here — I have had an influx of DM’s about everyone’s disappointment in Loft’s recent “announcement” to discontinue plus size. I share that sentiment, deeply. I think it’s fatphobic and a crock, to be frank. Ha! Most of you are upset because that was your go-to spot for affordable workwear, so my team and I went to work on getting you options from stores that LOVE catering to plus sizes. Here are 9 PLUS SIZE WORKWEAR OPTIONS that I hope you will find helpful!! Let me know in the comments if you love this, and if you want it to become a more regular thing we can! xoxo
