I've been to this event in the past and in my first year after WLS it was a life saver.
Be prepared to dig for clothes and they only take cash but it's a great way to make your $ go further & get some great clothes.

The Fat Girl Flea Market is next Saturday!!!

Saturday April 4th
11am - 8pm
$8 entrance fee
LGBT Center -- 208 West 13th Street, 3rd floor, Manhattan, NYC

Hey Teresa!

Don't mean to sound dumb, but are the clothes at "The Fat Girl Flea Market" only plus sized?

I'm wearing 8's +/-.  I've been super lucky with my sis giving me great quality coats, some tops, and lots of jeans.  It is so expensive to keep replacing your wardrobe .  I mean, it feels good to look nice and not have the potato sack look.

Last weekend I went to the cheapest stores (Danice & Pretty Girl) and moved directly to their clearance sections.  I got about 20 tops for $1, $2, $3, & $6.  Of course they are not of great quality - suprised that 1/4th of them were actually made in the USA,  BUT they look nice and will work for now.  I'll wash them gently.

I've spent so much money and now I just do not care where my clothes come from as long as I look nice.

Best,
Leila
