There are lots of clothes that I don't buy because I'm looking forward to buying smaller sizes at the end of my weight loss journey.
Among others, I'd want to shop at Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, and buy a couple of pairs of really nice skinny jeans by Levi's. Right now, I'm mostly rocking the Old Navy size 14 "skinnies" and t-shirt look.
I'd especially love to wear a cute romper like this one by Forever 21:
What are the clothes and brands that you look forward to wearing at the end of your WL journey?
This snooty looking little shop I always pass by, I know their sizes do not go past a 10. I would love to strut in there and know I will fit in one of their dresses
Also Topshop, I love their clothes but they are a bit pricey to have as temporary clothing.
I can shop in most places, I just don't look good in some of it. So for me it would be a case of what kind of clothes I want to be able to wear, not where I'll by it.
At the moment I wear a lot of black, maybe some blue, just to mix things up. Its not a conscious thing, I just seem to have worn black ever since I started gaining weight now I think about it.
I'd love to wear skinny jeans and not worry about my thunder thighs. Little strapless dresses and not feel huge, clothes that don't cover my arms, color and patterns, and the big girls enemy...a string bikini and not worry at all.
I just want to be able to walk into any store and buy a pair of jeans. I've only bought jeans from Old Navy for the last couple years. I hate how they fit, but, they fit and they're cheap. I'm still a size 18 though...so it might be awhile.

I did the EXACT same thing! I absolutely hated how their jeans fit, but I always just assumed that it was me and would wear them anyway! I would buy basically all of my clothes from Old Navy becuase that way I didn't have to go to the "plus" section of the store. I still absolutely hate how their jeans fit me, even though I'm grabbing 8's instead of 20's. Honestly, I don't even bother trying on pants there anymore. I do a lot of second hand shopping and I have to try on millions of jeans to find ones that fit me. This has really helped me see how much variation there is between brands, how much sizes vary and how certain ones are cut so much better for my body.
I want to be able to buy designer clothes. High quality designer labels. I've only ever bought cheap ($20 max) clothes... and I want to be able to own say... a dress or two... or a jacket... or something.
That... and I want to be able to walk into every store and not have to search around for the biggest size they carry.
Though... I'll still have a decently hard time with jeans... stupid freakishly long legs!
I limit my wardrobe to clothes that suit me, which isn't a lot. I can't wait to see comfortable in my own body where I can walk into any shop, see something I like and just know that I will find a size that will fit me no matter what.
As long as I'll get a chance to redo my wardrobe, I'm gonna try to make it concise, flattering, and good quality. I'll probably fill in a few classic basics at Jcrew, add some of my personal style with shops like Shopbop, H&M and Urban Outfitters, and fill in some of the cheaper necessities at Target. But really, I want to shop all over and find *just* the right pieces, instead of settling for whatever I come across in a few stores.
Mostly a the places I already shop at, to be honest: J.crew, Zara, H&M, and TopShop. But I always dread going into them because I feel like I look so out of place. I can't wait to just walk right through the door and beeline for some fabulous (and small) dress or top or pants or whatever, and just know it will fit and look great!
I want to shop at Charlotte Russe, Victoria's Secret, and American Eagle. I can shop at AE a little now but I have to find just the right size and type of garment.
Riestrella, same here. I just want to know that when I walk into any store, I'll fit their clothes.
I'm petite (5'2) and would love to be able to shop at ASOS. They have a petite line of clothes and I can't wait to buy a few dresses and pants that aren't a foot longer than they should be on my body. I love a lot of brands carried by Karma Loop, but I can't fit any of the dresses that I like from there either, so I'm definitely looking forward to being able to buy a mini dress and look great in it.
Where do you want to shop when you reach your GW?
Anywhere besides the Plus Department
