I've moaned on here before about how I'm struggling with my wardrobe having gained weight (2 stone / size 12-14 to size 16-18) following medical treatment. It may take a while to loose it again.
Having been off work - sick leave then made redundant - for the best part of six months, I'm starting a shiny new senior job next month.
Hardly any of my old clothes fit and I had a disastrous shopping trip today. Got good underwear but nothing else.
My top is 14-16, my bottom anything from a 16 to 20, depending on brand and style. My stomach is disproportionately big (think pregnancy bump!) and made worse by a serious c-section overhang. I'm a good 5' 9"
I have some decent jackets, black and navy trousers and a couple of skater style dresses that are ok. I need tops, would love a couple of skirts and dresses that aren't jersey because they cling and make me look 100 times worse
Need to look fairly formal - one decent suit would be nice then skirts / trousers / dresses that work with jackets or a cardigan to dress down.
Help please!

None of my clothes fit, starting a new job in two weeks and shopping trip today was a disaster!
