Answer
Forever21 has a plus-size section, although it is fairly limited and F21 clothes are cheap in general. Aside from there, you could try department stores like Macy's, JCP, Sear's, etc; or, stores like Target.
Personally, I loove ASOS, and they also have a huge plus-size selection! They're UK-based, so keep in mind size conversions, but shipping is free in the states. Seriously, their clothes are super cute :).
Your best bet would be to look up stylish plus-size blogs! Plus-size fashion bloggers would probably have great recommendations for wear to buy cute clothes.

would i be a plus size model?
Q. i wear a size 4 in dresses, size 5-7 SOMETIMES 9 jeans (depending where i go) mostly 7.
and i'm 5'7
i think plus size models are larger, but models are a lot smaller. haha
i'm kinda stuck between the two. what do you think? i'll add pictures later.
I'M NOT GAINING ANY WEIGHT!!! haha
i'd DEFINITELY want to "regular" model before plus size model, but I'm too big to do that so I'm just slightly considering plus size.
i do NOT want to gain weight though, if anything lose.
i'm 13, and EVERY one of my siblings is 6ft+
i'm sure i'll be growing, hopefully slimming down a bit.
i don't have large boobs. lol

Answer
Plus size models that are booked through the top agencies are between sizes 8 and 16/18 (with some bigger girls doing fit work).
You're a little short for modeling, though - the bare minimum is typically 5'8", and you really need to be even taller to be truly competitive.
When models are in that limbo between sizes their agents sometimes list them on both their straight size and plus size boards to see where they fit in best. I know of a handful of models who are a size 8 or 10 who are marketed as both and get booked for both straight size and plus size jobs, although the work they get is usually more catalog and commercial work than pure fashion work.
You are in the middle, and you need to get in front of an agent who, if he/she has interest in you, can tell you which market to target. No one here on Yahoo can tell you if you are going to make it - that's up to an agent or booker.
You mention "regular" modeling - do you know what that means? I think you are talking about commercial modeling, where people don't have to be ultra-thin or especially big or amazingly beautiful. There are commercial agencies that book people to do tv ads, commercials, advertisements, etc. Think of the Lysol lady or the "where's the beef" lady - they are not gorgeous models but they are "real people" models and can make a few bucks. That might be where you're headed - you don't strike me as fashion model material.
Good luck with whatever you do!
