I know there are lots of house of colour experts on here but I'm really struggling with the clothes and my colours.
I'm 31 and a bit heavier than I'd like to be (aiming to lose a stone and a half before real summer, you know that week in sept when it's warmish!). Am currently a size 12/14 and am 5 ft 8. Have largish boobs although am carrying my weight on my stomach at the moment so don't want to accentuate that too much. Am leggy rather than long bodied tho and have super white legs.
My hair is a shoulder length bob with a fringe (which I like) am going quite grey so have coloured it to match my own cool very dark hair. My eyes are deep green and skin very pale.
I am totally stuck. I love make up and have lots that all very me. No problems there at all but clothes are a disaster. I have totally lost my confidence. Feel like I have a wardrobe that doesn't work at all and is unflattering. I work for myself, partly from home and have a ds 12 and a dd7. I feel like I'm letting them down a bit.
Have also been single for nearly 4 years and am fed up and want to look approachable. I don't feel like I do at the moment at all. Obviously don't want to spend a fortune as would like to lose the weight then invest in some more expensive jeans etc however would like to at least look reasonable in the meantime. I would actually push the boat out a bit and say Id love to look a bit more funky really.
Please help am feeling a bit at rock bottom today and am having a massive clear out. Sorry for the epic post but didn't want to not put info info for people to work from if they'd like to help.
Thank you.
