I am 5'5" and quite Apple shaped.
Any ideas what I can wear? I am useless and don't do smart at all except work trouser suits.

I'm 18/20 and have bought a lindy bop dress to wear to a wedding next month- petticoat and all! Can't wait- it looks fab!

The lady V ones re gorgeous, anything 50's style would be lovely

Something like this perhaps?
Or a light colour shirt dress with hair up and well accessorised maybe?
This one is too casual but you get the idea. Minimalist, with pretty footwear and large metallic clutch - shirt dresses can be good for apple shapes.
I hope you enjoy the wedding.

ASOS gave some nice ones in a good shape for apples. There are loads but here are a couple:

Blue with beaded sleeves

Cornflower blue with a nice back

Pretty if you're blonde?

Okay so I've been doing some googling this weekend and found 2 possibilities.
Any comments received gratefully!
