We all know that pretty, flattering plus size clothes can be pretty expensive. And because buying nice items that will look great is an investment, you can’t always go crazy and buy as much as you like.

At SWAK Designs, you can. Because their summer clearance is going strong, and they have some seriously cute items for seriously low prices. Like the cute-on-everybody Plus Size Perfect Little Dress, on sale for $34.39. It comes is white and pastels to show off your summer tan. Or the Sheer Chiffon V-Neck Tunic (I love it in black), which is on sale for just $21.99.

Also, don’t forget that SWAK Designs offer $5.00 flat-rate shipping and free shipping for orders over $149.

Have you been waiting to buy a new swimsuit until the sales are at their ultimate low? Or have you bought just one, but want to stock up on a few more for next summer? Well, you’ve planned ahead and played it smart… and now it’s you’re turn to shop!

This week at SwimsuitsForAll, their summer overstock liquidation has begun. Now, this isn’t some little “five styles at 20% off” type of sale. They have over 150 styles with discounts of up to 90%! You’re not going to do much better than this no matter how smart a shopper you are.

The suit I have my eye on (an adorable Paisley One Piece by Jantzen) isn’t even at the maximum discount: but at only $25.98 marked down from $78.00, it’s a steal. The best styles are going quick, so you’ll want to stop in as soon as you can.

Silhouettes really wants you to check out some of their summer sales and new autumn arrivals. How do I know? Because they’re offering some incredible deals that will save you plenty of cash on great items for both summer and autumn.

The best one? Until August 31st, you can get 20% off of any $100 (or more) purchase simply by using the coupon code AFF8PC19 at checkout. Plan to pick up a pair of jeans along with the rest of your order? Then you get an extra deal. For a limited time, you’ll get a free (but super cute) denim bag with every purchase from Silhouette’s Blue Couture jeans collection.

Go check it out. You can never have too many pairs of jeans, and a really great pair, like the lovely tummy-tucking Control Fit Bootcut Jeans, will last you through summer, autumn, and beyond. These are seriously flattering jeans. And don’t forget to bring your coupon code along when you shop!

Caught your attention, didn’t I? If you’re drooling over some of the great swimsuit styles I’ve been talking about here, you’re going to love this SwimsuitsForAll contest, where a free $100 gift certificate is up for grabs!

Actually, it’s not even a contest… and even the laziest “it’s too hot to think” of us will be able to do it.  Simply enter SwimsuitsForAll’s monthly drawing, and you’ll be eligible to win. It’s that easy. And since the prize comes in the form of a gift certificate, you can spend it on anything you want. A new suit, a wrap, some cute summer flip-flops… you name it. Don’t miss out!

Ah, a mysterious title, right? What exactly is live action fashion? Well, it’s fashion that you can watch in action right on your computer. At IGIGI, videos of your favorite items are now available. So if you want to make sure this pretty Malibu Print Top won’t cling unflatteringly to your hips when you walk, you can do it. Want to see how the fabric of the Summer Wrap Dress with Pockets moves around you when you turn? Just click “watch video,” and get a real feel for how this dress will look on you. Just look for the little video camera icon in the preview photo of each item.

And don’t forget that IGIGI is still offering $8.00 flat rate shipping on any order you place, and are currently also holding their summer clearance sale! So you can browse, watch videos, and buy all you want. Now I’ve got to get going… I was in the middle of imagining a maxi dress fluttering prettily around my ankles as I turn…

Yep, you read that right. Here in the middle of summer, SwimsuitsForAll is offering up to 70% off on its selection of super cute, super sexy, and of course super flattering plus size swimsuits… including the designer brands!

While I of course suggest you browse around their clearance section to see what they’ve got on sale, you don’t want to miss out on their selection of inexpensive Liz Claiborne suits. These are the suits that you’ll be excited to show off every summer… and that you’d normally pay and arm and a leg (or two) for. But now, even the “most wanted” Liz Claiborne suits, like the South of the Border Two Piece Bandeau Skirtini, are marked way down.

You want to go designer? What are you waiting for? These are some very cute, very sexy, suits, and they’re going quick.

What curvy girl doesn’t love Avenue.com? They have some of the cutest styles for plus size figures on the net. And right now, they also have some of the best prices in their summer clearance.  Some of the cutest summer styles are on sale for up to 60% off… and are going fast.

I am absolutely in love with the Linen Pintucked Button-Down Top. It’s feminine, it’s timeless, and it’s marked down to $20.00 from its original price of $49.99. I’m imagining it now with this Stretch Shell Bracelet, normally priced $14.00 and on sale for $7.00. It’ll be the perfect combo come autumn, too.

While you’re at it, check out some of the other specials going on at Avenue, including 50% off bras and panties until August 7, and buy one, get on 50% off on watches and jewelry.

Bubble dresses. You know the ones. They look super cute on those girls with the approximate size and shape of a stick, and terrible on anybody with a pair of, you know… hips. You like to follow trends, but… why would you torture yourself by putting on a dress with a hemline that only puffs everything out and clings in all the wrong places?

I just visited IGIGI, and lo and behold… they actually make bubble dresses that flatter women with a curvier shape!  Just in at the website is a selection of very trendy (by still very flattering) bubble-hemmed dresses. My favorite? The jewel-toned green jade bubble dress. So pretty. So feminine. So in my shopping cart.

Finally! Just because I’m not Miss Twiggy doesn’t mean I can’t follow this trend.

Enjoy your summer and style! IGIGI is making that even easier for full figured women now, by launching a massive summer clearance sale. Savings of up to 60% can be made, on select summer fashion. Here is a roundup of some pieces which caught my eye, which are also reduced in price:

• Dress with Polka Dots Inserts in Black/White. Was: $89.00. Now: $53.50.

This is going to be one popular sale, so I’m sure the items will be grabbed pretty quickly. So get your hands on your favorite today to avoid disappointment.

When you’re not in the mood for a skirt, capri pants are the perfect compromise. They offer the coverage and convenience of pants, but are cool and comfy for summer. You can dress them up with a pair of pretty heels and a nice blouse, or dress them down with some flip flops and a tank. And even though I already own several pairs, I think I might have to buy another… because at SWAK Designs, their cutest, most versatile, totally functional capri pants are on special!

Normally $32.99, you can get $10 off these super cute, super flattering little pants for a limited time. Just use coupon code PCNA3333 at checkout, and you’re ready to go! I like them in black, as I’ll be able to dress them up for the evening or wear them to work, or go black and white with bright accessories (very in right now!) during the day. They’re also available in khaki. Check them out now, while they still have all sizes in stock!
