As a plus-size editor, I know a thing or two about online shopping. It's practically the thing I'm most qualified to do, as I spend hours parsing through online sale sections and scrolling through endless pages to find chic clothing items that are both size-inclusive and affordable. With the holiday season upon us, I'm finding myself with more free time than ever, meaning my late-night shopping sessions have gone into overdrive. Horrible for my wallet, incredible for you all.
During a midnight scroll through Mango, J.Crew, and H&M, I was shocked to see a slew of timeless basics, elevated essentials, and trend-forward pieces available larger than a size 12. Even though these retailers make up the majority of my closet, I'm not going to lie—I get a little bit giddy when I see an item I love being offered in my size.
Below, shop all of the chicest plus-size clothing items, whether brand classics or hot new arrivals, from Mango, J.Crew, and H&M. If you end up buying everything on this list, don't say I didn't warn you!
Mango
This color is goregous.
While this coat is a bit pricey, it's such a good investment for the colder months.
Understated yet incredibly chic.
I've been obsessed with tweed jackets recently, and this adorable version from Mango has got to be one of my favorites.
These aren't just any jeans; they're cool jeans. With an edgy ankle slit running down the side, they're perfect for wearing with statement boots.
This slouchy wool blazer is giving me major Gucci vibes from the brand's F/W 23 show.
If this relaxed sweater is good enough for French girls, it's good enough for me.
This fur-lined jacket is a favorite among models and cool people everywhere.
Can't you tell I love a good Gucci-esque blazer at this point?
Red is the color of the season, and my sights are set on this immaculate tweed jacket.
H&M
H&M's affordable, size-inclusive jeans have to be one of my favorite finds on the internet.
If you're leaning into the rocker-chic look for all of your holiday parties, look no further.
A simple yet incredibly elevated turtleneck knit is always effective in making any outfit feel 10 times more luxe.
The neckline on this sweater has me swooning.
Three words: need it now.
I can never say no to a cozy, easy-to-wear sweaterdress.
Did someone say skinny jeans are back?
The foolproof, easy way to make any outfit look more put together is to swap your jeans for a pair of well-tailored slacks, and this H&M pair fits the bill perfectly.
J.Crew
I have this jacket, and I can confirm it's just as good IRL as it looks online.
Chic!
The perfect winter mini to layer under black tights.
Okay, this brushed cashmere sweater is speaking to me on a deep, emotional level.
If you're looking for dressier jeans that you can wear both on date nights and to the office, this structured pair might be exactly what you have in mind.
J.Crew's latest collaboration with Ukrainian designer Anna October has fashion person written all over it.
Who can say no to a timeless trench coat (that, I might add, is on sale!).
No thoughts, just this Anna October x J.Crew dress I know I'm going to obsess over for the next five to seven business days.
I'll leave you with one of my favorite finds of all.
