I use the word girl loosely btw.
Off to London this weekend, river boat cruise with lunch then a few pub visits after.
What do I wear,?
I'm 5'9", size 16 (with all the weight on my tummy) and don't wear heels

Layers. It's warm in the sunshine but chilly when you're out of direct sun.
Sunglasses, trainers, maybe platform ones. I live in London and out and about this week I'll probably wear flared jeans or straight leg trousers ( I'd like to wear wide ones but they don't suit me) with a t-shirt and thin wool jumper or hoody, new boxy dark denim jacket and a scarf. Also red lipstick. It's not dressy here.

Definitely layers, weather is so changeable and rivers get cold!

If I was doing that this weekend, I’d wear:

cropped trench (Zara and John Lewis have nice ones)
Big enough banana-shaped bag (e.g leather m&s)
jumper (e.g the Devon from With Nothing Underneath)
white tshirt or man-sized shirt
wide legged black or navy trousers, or wide/balloon jeans
Comfy socks
trainers (e.g soludos or air and grace)
sunglasses
take a brolly if it looks like rain
take a hairbrush, deo and kit for makeup touch ups

Have you missed the Style & Beauty board, @willitevergetwarm? It’s a shame to deprive posters there from the fun of dressing you!

Jeans, trainers, t shirt and then a cardie/jumper for when it gets chilly. I'd also take a spring coat and cotton scarf.

No one in London wears heels to ths pub.

I have brilliant knitted cardie/jacket from Uniqlo that is great for days like that.
