Fly Friends, have you ever had trouble finding plus size work outfits or the perfect look for a job interview? I’m here to help! I’ve put together some outfits from my favorite workwear retailers to show you that dressing for the job can still be fun! You can still show your style and personality in your work outfits. The only differences there should be in the way that you dress are the cut and length of items.
Business Boho – Old Navy
If your personal style has a bit of a boho flair, old navy is the place for you. You can dress these pieces up or down and they come in beautiful earth tones and neutrals that will pair well with any existing items already in your closet. These denim, tassel, and crochet details added to classic cuts make Old Navy the perfect place to get boho pieces that will work for your work wardrobe. This is also a great place to get an affordable capsule wardrobe for work. All of the pieces work well together and with maybe ten to fifteen pieces that can mix and match you’ll have 30+ outfits for work without a big budget!
Werk at Work – ELOQUII Plus Size Work Outfits
If you’re feeling your fashion destiny at work, Eloquii has amazing pieces for you to try. There are some gorgeous staple pieces like this navy blue pencil skirt, but you can mix in some really great statement pieces to bring some spark to your office wardrobe. Eloquii is great at bringing in fun colors and textures to their collections in cuts that you can easily transition from work to the weekend. A lot of these pieces would work for after-work drinks as well! These pieces are also wonderful at making a lasting first impression at an interview! If you want to look and feel your best, maybe even a bit more professional than you would normally dress for a business casual job, an Eloquii outfit is a perfect choice.
Glam CEO Vibes – Fashion to Figure
If you want to bring that CEO baddie energy to your work looks, Fashion To Figure is the place to shop. They carry lots of fun statement pieces that still have a professional vibe, but with a bit of a sexy twist. If you work in fashion, own your own business, are a realtor, anything that allows you to dress a tiny bit out there but you still personally want a professional look, start filling your cart! These pieces are also perfect for showing your personality in an interview and can double as a date night or special occasion outfit.

Business Casual – Target Plus Size Work Outfits
Target is THE place for business casual babes! Target is easily accessible since there are Targets everywhere, carries all sizes in store, and is as budget-friendly as it’s gonna get for business casual clothes. This is also great for work from home babes like myself! Sometimes you just need to put on a cute outfit to get a nice start to your day and feel ready to take on your to-do list. These pieces are comfy and cozy but you can totally run errands or meet a friend or client for lunch or coffee. The best part about these looks is that while they may have a bit of a business touch to them, these pieces can easily be dressed down and integrated into your everyday wardrobe and you’ll get a ton of use out of them!
Vintage Vibes – ModCloth
If you are a vintage babe, this one is for you! ModCloth has the most fun-themed prints, vintage cuts, and Mad-Men-like styles. I love this vibe for my teacher babes out there! I picture my favorite librarian wearing these ultra-cool vintage-inspired fits. & if you sport a vintage vibe on the daily, this is the perfect place to find work-appropriate pieces that are comfy and fun. ModCloth has tons of sales too, so keep your eyes peeled!
Plus Size Workwear
I hope this blog helped you find some amazing plus size workwear pieces! I know there can be a lot of pressure for fat people to look ultra-professional at work because sometimes even dressing business casual has rude people calling us “sloppy.” If anyone gives you shit, remember that you’re at WORK and you don’t need to deal with that mess. 2022 is the year of reporting fatphobes to HR can calling out fatphobic behavior at the office, besties!
One of my favorite lines is, “would you think this outfit was inappropriate for work if (insert thin co-worker here) was wearing it?” Another is listing out exactly what I’m wearing before asking them if those items actually don’t meet the dress code. “I’m wearing a trouser, a sweater, and flats. Are those items really against the dress code?” Because most of the time hearing it back they’ll realize that no, those items are indeed NOT against the dress code.
Happy Fly-Friend-bossing!
