Please help
I am going back to work next week, been out three years.
Need a whole new wardrobe.
This is hindered by the fact that I have put on about a stone in the last month!
So 5 ft 5, so not tall.
And size 18, so no tight fitting blouses, or tops. I am thinking blousey tops!
And trouser suits
need some help with new boots too. Brown and black pair, not too high and comfortable but a bit trendy.
I am thinking classy, expensive looking(but not)
please help me, I had to look so hard for this section as I have never been here.
I am so unstylish

could afford a couple of really nice classic pieces, but looking for cheaper options on the blouses
thanks

Oasis have some lovely smart work tops in at the moment...

What shape are you? If you are curvy, for example, you would be far better off in dresses than suits.

Monsoon have some great work wear, including dresses, and Wallis will ahve lots of blouses

I like Phase Eight for smart work clothes they seem to have both drapey and fitted. And seem to be well made. Good hunting

ah shite, only size 3 left online

ooh, thank you all very much
blinks, i love those boots and I like that ASos site
Really like the dress idea but don't think I could pull it off, maybe when I lose the spare tyre. It's that I am trying to hide.

I'm ok for trousers
I looked in Phase Eight but all seems to very sparkly and dressy and the moment.
Monsoon had some nice tops, but I can't spend £50/£60 on a blouse!
