Help!! Plus size fifty year old wants to look cool

I am fed up of wearing the same jeans and shirt combo but I’m so out of touch. I need to do some real self care and find some clothes that help me feel good. I am a size 18 and prefer to shop online, but I’m not sure where to look. Previously have used ASOS and TK maxx. Surely there are better options? Please hit me up with your favourite sites. 🙏 thank you

First ten places that spring to mind. Obviously sizing varies and a size 16 in more expensive brands may be the equivalent of an 18 in a cheaper brand, so it’s always worth exploring. Unisex and or leisurewear brands stock the same hoodies, joggers, etc for women and men - but the men’s go up to larger sizes, so I’ve included some shops where you should look at the men’s clothes. I’d definitely say spending more money per item will make you better dressed.

All online.

What's your definition of cool?

Round here for that age it would be eg a cool sweatshirt, baggy jeans, cool trainers or DMs plus some kind of mullet or edgy fringe or v blunt bob.
