The average U.S. woman is around 5'4" and 164 pounds, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. So what does this mean and what are plus size clothing stores going to do about it? Apparently as of today women's purchases of regular sizing is down 5.1% and plus size is down 9.5%. Is this due to women not wanting to spend? Perhaps there are few choices for women's plus size clothing that does not have quality spelled ALL over it. I think there are many online stores that sell everyday regular clothing that does not hold up to cycles of washing. Fine. Sometimes, I am on a budget other times I am not. Often I get the feeling I really do not want to replace replace replace. Buying quality is an investment and saves money in the end. When you want to look great select smart classic designs. Don't compromise. It's ok to pay less for clothes you wear around the house but not for special occasions or work. Buy a great separate and layer it with a lesser value tank. This keeps you looking updated and sharp! Now off you go!
