I'm a Plus-Size Editor—Here's What I'm Eyeing From Mango, H&M, and Nordstrom
With springtime slowly approaching, I'm itching for a new wardrobe. After turning over my closet and donating older trends and styles that didn't fit my lifestyle, I'm on the hunt for low-cost, high-joy pieces that speak to a fun, youthful challenge— somewhat of a challenge when you navigate the world as plus size.
While some retailers still have a long ways to go, more and more trend-forward labels and stores are expanding their size ranges and offering styles that go beyond the normal pair of structured jeans and white T-shirts. As a shopping editor, there's nothing more I love than buying something I find while researching a trend story, and thanks to places like Mango, H&M, and Nordstrom, it's easier than ever.
With size ranges expanding up to a 4XL or US 26 in most options available online from my go-to shops, it's more important than ever to keep stylish women of all sizes at the top of our minds. If that sounds like you— I've got you covered. Below, browse my personal shopping paradise of size-inclusive picks from Mango, Nordstrom, and H&M.
Madewell jeans rarely go on sale, so snag them up at this incredible price before they're gone.
This tweed jacket looks 10 times more expensive than it actually is.
Every time I shop online at Mango, I'm instantly drawn to these elevated pants.
No joke—I hiked in these pants last year and I've never been more comfortable.
This geometric printed dress would go so well with a pair of knee-high boots.
There's only a few sizes left of this skirt, but it's too good not to share.
This oatmeal-colored sweater would pair so well with some dark-wash denim.
Spoiler alert: This on-trend jacket is sold out nearly everywhere minus H&M's plus-size section.
This eggshell biker jacket is a lighter variation of spring's rising sleeper trend, and I'm here for it.
This leather jacket has never looked this good (and it's on sale, too!).
