As above really! I'm crap at buying clothes that a) suit my shape and b) I actually feel comfortable wearing.
I'm too easily infuenced by what my friends wear and end up buying clothes that would suit them perfectly but when I wear then they don't fit right/feel right.
If I was given £5000 to spend tomorrow on clothes I still couldn't come up with a decent wardrobe.
Problem is I don't have that sort of money to spend on clothes so a personal shopper isn't really an option.
I think I'm more of a casual person - I hate wearing heals but at almost 5'8 I can get away with that. I do like converse shoes but find that they don't match the nice tops I keep buying. I'm a size 14 on the bottom at the moment (aiming to lose a bit/tone up a little) and a 12 on top with small boobs - and I am a bit long in the body a so a lot of tops come up short on me which I hate - I need to be able to lift my arms up to a reasonable height without flashing my belly at people!
I've also noticed that my old clothing haunts - new look, H&M all seem to cater for the much younger age group now - either that or I'm just getting a bit old and fuddy duddy - (I'm 35 btw).
So, any suggestions of either styles that might suit my figure or place to look where I might find some nice cool but casual clothes - particularly where tops don't come up too short (like the nice one I just bought from next :( )
TIA
