I have what I would think is a pretty standard "mum" figure- size 12, bit of a flabby belly (added bonus of a section overhang), boobs that are a DD cup and have served two children well for milk but aren't what they were before they did, bits of flabbyness but nothing too shocking. I actually quite like my figure tbh, that makes it sound awful.
Hardly anything fits! Jeans fall down - they sit on the hips, so are already at my widest point. T shirts cling to my belly, then ride up, or are shapeless. Dresses do the same. Blouses gape. Cardigans fall off my shoulders.
My taste leans towards the colourful, patterned, darker colours type stuff. Eg today I wore a 3/4 length dark pink jumper, purple dress with a large flower pattern, black tights with white spots, red flat shoes and DHs tweed jacket. Hmm, that sounds odd, in fact prob looks odd too tbh (esp as I wear a flowery old lady apron to do the houseowrk)
Basically, HELP!
(Also, I am skint as a skint thing and a sahm)(and hate shopping and trying things on)

How do I find clothes that fit, and also how do I not look like my nana?
