I am being made redundant whilst on maternity leave after being in the same job for 14 years :-(
I am an accountant in a commercial environment at the moment so feel a suit would be inappropriate.
I am a size 12/14/16 depending on the shop/style and have NO idea where to start!
I have mulberry bags in brown and black that I would use so I guess my taste is quite traditional.
I am 5'3" with light brown hair, and green eyes.
Any ideas please lovely people?

Thanks to Mumsnet I have discovered Hobbs Outlet great clothes that I have a tiny chance of being able to afford.

Thank you! Will have a look at Hobbs - I saw some lovely nude heels at lk Bennett outlet, so am on the right track I hope!
I'm curvy so wonder about how flattering pencil skirts are on me?
