Found out tonight that my lovely husband has booked us a few days away as a surprise, I thought maybe it'd be Amsterdam and had lovely ideas of strolling around, museums etc basically being totally relaxed but turns out its to Maastricht with tickets to see André Rieu (apparently I commented on one of his concerts on telly at some stage). Problem is I have absolutely no idea what I can wear, I'm 55, 5'1" tall and a size 14 with bug breasts, I have been trying to find any kind of decent (not plastic) clothing for months and have failed completely, I hate how I look right now, the biggest I've ever been,chronic illness since age 12 has ramped up over the last 18 months leaving me totally exhausted and struggling so being told tonight about the concert did the opposite of what my poor husband intended. It hadn't occurred to him that I'd need to dress up, might have had my hair done etc. To be fair he seems to think I'm pretty no matter how shit I look. I'm so worn out I'm almost in tears at the idea of trying to look good for the concert instead of the relaxing weekend I thought he'd planned. He's the best husband and step dad so I know I'm going to have to try to enjoy it for him but back to my original question, what the fuck do I wear? Can't order online, won't have time, I'm in Ireland and the high street shops cater for much younger slimmer women, I've a decent budget which I've been trying to spend but am sick of clothes made from plastic, I'm also sick of the poor quality thats available compared to mens clothing. I have been looking for a few classic basics and a pair of block heel knee high leather boots over the last few months, I've bought one cardigan/hoodie in the Blarney woolen Mills because its warm, comfy, looks decent and is 100% wool, that's it after months of looking and now I have two days to find suitable clothes for the weekend. Sorry for the long long post, I'm too tired to edit.
