Hello - I am starting new work next week - have been working nights for a while as been studying - and had uniform for that. Daytimes I tend to live in black jeans/loosetops/cardigans. Most of my stufff looks tired and drab.
I am starting new work - only part-time so not great earnings and dont want to spend a lot - but want to look well put together.
Problem - weight gain - i am now size 18/20 and depending on shop sometimes need size 22 top. I am 5ft 9.
I like darker colours - so blacks with purples reds etc. I dont really want to live in jeans but the working environment is casual so that would be ok. Definitely not a job for wearing suits. Cant wear low tops or see through clothing - or short stuff - because of the working envirnment - risks/innappropriate*
My friend swears by leggings and tunics but I dont know if I can get away with it. Happy to buy secondhand (Ebay?) but just dont know what suits me anymore
Would be grateful to be pointed in the right direction. THanks [busmile]
