I just found an app on CDH for a store called Cross-Dress.  They seem to have it all.  Where do you ladies shop?

@marsha68 Mostly in person, usually Walmart but not exclusively.

@marsha68 Mostly Walmart, either in person or on their app. I don't see the benefit of buying girls clothes specifically made for men, especially with the price premium.

@marsha68 I shop all over. Many of my online purchases were not exactly what I wanted. But I have found a few that I use regularly. I no longer wear lipstick, but use a lip stain and gloss from Wonderskin. Some of my casual shoes I find at several discount online venues. Most of my shoes though I buy in person because with my foot problems I need to keep the pressure off my big toes. SO my shoes come from Torrid and Skechers mostly but occasionally Target or Walmart. 

I do get some clothes at local thrift stores, but mostly at Target, Walmart, Torrid and other brick and morter shops. Most of my bras now come from Target because I like the fit and look of thier Auden brand. Love Torrid for thier styles and fit. Sometimes shopping Walmart is great for thier large selection. I love my local Torrid and Target the best because thier fitting rooms are easy to use.

@marsha68 sometimes it comes as a surprise…like yesterday, Saturday, I was out shopping with my wife; I was only underdressed and to be honest not really pay attention to what she was doing. Out of the blue she held up a lovely ivory lace blouse, “This will suit you and it’s your size, don’t you think that it is lovely?” 

I had to agree and before I knew it I was the proud owner of a delightful addition to my wardrobe, a gift from my darling wife! When I asked her what prompted her to buy the blouse for me she responded that she thought that I needed a new top and that I would look good in it!

So….in answer to the question, I get lot of my clothes because my wife selects and buys them for me! Yes I know how lucky I am!!

I have a Walmart+ membership (free shipping), and have shopped almost exclusively online at Walmart. They have a very easy return process if you're trying to dial in your sizes, and you won't spend a lot of money.

I get most of my goodies on ebay.  Just yesterday I got a Maggie Barnes skirt with a $45 price tag for $11 plus shipping.  I'll check out my local Goodwill store now and again.

I only shop online at the moment. I bought some underwear and accessories on Amazon, all my clothes come from Yours Clothing. They have a very wide range of items and they all come in plus sizes, which is a big plus (😜) for me. Even bigger than I need, which gives me a good feeling too.

I buy makeup from Ulta both online and in person. Most of my clothes are from charity resale shops.  That works well for me since I have very little storage space and I don't feel bad only wearing a dress once and donating it back for $6 to $12.  I buy my panties from Laura and Katie although they are a pricy splurge.  I buy shoes online from stores like DSW or from Amazon.  I like Macy's as well and get a lot of sleepwear and other items from them both online and in store. I like Orchard Corset for shape-wear and the Breast form store for my forms.  I hear a lot of good things about Torrid but am just a size 12 so I haven't tried them yet.

@michellemybell Thanks for mentioning Torrid. They seem to have a full line of shoes in womens size 13; still iffy as a substitute for mens 12, but better than you're going to find anywhere else. Reasonably priced, too. One pair of booties destroyed my big toe; but flats and boots have worked well. Even found a more acceptable pair of winter booties there in womens 14; snug, (and cute) but easier on my toe 😉

I like to shop at Macys.  It seems they always have a good selection, and you can often get some pretty good deals, and I really like their in store pickup option.

No place inparticular, but nearly always at brick and mortar stores. I generally do not like shopping, but do enjoy it motpre en femme.

While in the past I did most of my shopping on-line, I now prefer to shop at brick and mortar stores in person.   Generally, Macy's has worked for me the best in general while DSW is a good place for shoes.  In both cases, if what you are looking for isn't in stock, they can get it for you through a store pickup option.

Being a plus plus girl, my options are quite limited.  I have had great success with Torrid and Lane Bryant, which are my go to retailers.  I have occassionally had luck with other retailers, but not much.

I have had good luck at JC Penney. I found a nice size 14 dress and a couple pairs of heels, all on sale like 70% off.

As much as possible, I try to support my local community, be it in person, on-line, or thrift stores. I have bought quite a few things through Wish, so that I can experiment and learn without going broke.

Nowadays, though, my choice will be a bit more restricted because of our US boycott.
