I just got back from Kohl's, and was disappointed in their overall selection (it's that in-between season, alas). HOWEVER, one thing that caught my eye that might be perfect, was their Tek Gear fitness dresses! I know, you're asking yourself, "What in the heck is a fitness dress?" And I did, too--except I remembered that Alison was looking for something to wear on vacation. They had two styles, tank and surplice, both with built-in shelf bras, and both in multiple colors. I'm a medium/large in fitness wear, so I tried on the large. I didn't think the bra was terribly supportive, but otherwise the fit was good, and the dress was really cute! If *I* were going on a beach vacation, I'd have snapped one up in a second.
Let's see if this pic works...

I am heading to Kohl's tomorrow, so I'll definitely be on the lookout for it! Did it have anything under the skirt? (Like how running skirts have built in underpants or bike shorts?) ETA: Followed the link... looks like it's just a dress... but I could easily throw something short under it, boy shorts or something... Thanks for pointing this out! |

I will add that I have had great luck with the clearance section at Sports Authority. I picked up some great items over the weekend. They had a lot to choose from in L/Xl, which is my preferred size. For example, I got a pair of Under Armour shorts for $7.99, and several name brand tanks for under $10 each!

JCPenneys carries Xersion and they have larger sizes. I know a couple of people who have bought their workout wear in XL and plus sizes and love it.
Champion (catalog) carries some larger-size workout clothes, too.

Well, I went to Kohl's and had no luck. No fitness dresses at all.
*sigh* Since we leave for our vacation on Saturday, I have no desire to do any more shopping, LOL. I'm shopped out. Perhaps I'll just hit up my local, favorite thrift store tomorrow and see if I get lucky. Thanks for all the suggestions! |
