Putting together a wardrobe that’s on trend and doesn’t drain your bank account can be challenging. Now factor in finding said trends in plus-size and the experience can be downright depressing — but it doesn’t have to be. With more and more labels catering to an extended range of sizes, the offerings for fall are some of the best we’ve seen…
