I'm feeling a bit bored with my wardrobe so would love some other peoples views on what i should be wearing.
I'm 5ft, size 12 with 32E boobs.
I'm not scared of colour and like to look a bit different from everyone else.
There are photos of me on the profile (my hair is red again) and my face looks squashed in the final photo-not really like this in real life(honestly).
You look lovely! You are the same size as me (but I am 5'2 - same size boobage though).
I like flippy, just under knee length skirts with fitted-ish tops - I usually wear the colour in the skirt and then a plain top, to draw less attention to the norkage. I wear them with DM Mary Janes or Fly wedges, or flip flops in summer or boots in winter. Shops that fit me well are:
Next Petite for trousers - but I hate most of the stuff in Next; Gap for jeans; M&S Ltd Collection; Principles petite for trousers.
If you like colour, you might find some nice stuff in Utam or Urban Outfitters.
i thinkvolour is your best weapon tbh and jewllery god there is some REALLy gool weird stuf fin princples of all places atm big silver neckalces in straight liens....
They are all great ideas. Thank you for the input and links. I love the kaftans and will definitely go to Principles. I have a few skirts like you have suggested and wear them with pumps or wedges (what are fly wedges?). Its so nice to pinch other peoples ideas,keep them going please.....
Thankyou. I have just had it cut a bit shorter though just as red! Thinking of going choc brown with electric blue slices through it. Those fly shoes are spot on for me but a bit pricey.....will have to start saving.
oooooooh thanks cod Am still dithering but I may just get you to do that.... as I say though , might be able to get sis to do it as she's in London for 3 weeks then returning to NZ. She's taken a near empty suitcase with her in order to overdose on shopping. My mother rang me the other day adn said 'I'm really pissed off'. Oh god, what now thought I, but then she continued 'caroline has gone to John Lewis, I am SO JEALOUS'
