Bright Horizons at Wallingford

I loved how different this store was from all the other plus-size options out there. I got a beautiful velvet jacket there once and I get compliments every time I wear it. The sales girls were understanding and helpful. I needed to match the jacket to a skirt I had at home and they were okay with giving me a refund if it didn't work. more

There aren't a ton of places to go for plus size clothes! This is a lovely shop for larger women, and the people who want to buy gifts for them. They have lots of scarves, and lots of silver jewelry, which is my favorite! I got my mom a beautiful 100% silk blouse that is machine wash & dry-able! The sales lady was so attentive, I could have sworn she was on commission, but she laughed when I asked about that, and said something like, ""No, I get to tell you the truth!"" Wish I had caught her name...My mom loved the blouse, and I got a pretty scarf that I get tons of compliments on. I wouldn't hesitate to go back here; and the whole store is full of pretty clothes, things you don't see at the mall. I didn't think I'd find anything upon walking in; it seemed kind of middle-aged and hippieish. But after explaining exactly what I needed to the sales girl, she patiently helped me until I found the perfect thing, and a little something for myself :)\r A downside: They don't do refunds, only exchanges or store credit.\r Price-wise, a lot of the tops I looked at were around 75 to 200 dollars, and the scarf I got was 40. \r There's parking, and nearby cupcakes at Trophy. And it's right next to their regular size shop, so different sized friends can go shopping together. \r Overall I really enjoyed the experience here. Pros: Helpful staff, parking/bus line, size choices Cons: No refunds more
