I'm a plus sized teenage girl and I need to go shopping for some new clothes soon. Its just that I am embarrassed to go to the plus sized clothes section of Target or Walmart. Im afraid that people will look at me or something. What should I do???

Don't be afraid! You are not the only plus sized person on a planet and definately not in your town! People are not gonna look at you buying clothes from the plus size section, they will be more concerned with their own shopping! Just hold your head high and buy some clothes that you feel beautiful in, just because you are plus size, doesnt mean you can't look better or dress better than anyone else!

Not to be rude at all by any means, but if you are shopping in the plus size you obviously have some curves ! People are going to realize that whether you buy plus size clothes or not. Half the time the workers don't even look at sizes, so just continue shopping and don't be embarassed.

I go there and they don't look at me it blends in with the womans section.

You should just ignore them. It would be even worse if they saw you be a big person shopping in the smaller clothing sections. You can't hide your size by not shopping there. That's what i would do...
