Waaah! I start work next week and have nothing to wear!

[Wintersun]

Literally.
I've had a year off and have lost hardly any weight. I look a total frump. Why oh why did I not take dieting more seriously??

Anyway, I'm 12 trousers and 14-16 top. I'm 5'3" (so look massive) and don't wear skirts.

Can someone help me to decide what to buy please? I've lost all confidence

[zippitippitoes]

are you going back to where you worked before or is it a new job and what is it

[Wintersun]

Yes going back to where I was. Am in an office job in the City.

cant you just order LOADS from Next and send back stuff thats no good?
does that make you apple shaped?

[EffiePerine]

do you have to wear a suit?

if not, smart trousers and tops and co-ordinating jackets work well for me (actually now I'm 6 mo pg I wear whatever fits )

also if you are in the City can you do some clothes shopping in your lunch break? If so you'll only need a few outfits to start with
