What can fat people wear when it is hot?

[AtYourCervix]

Planning ahead to forthcoming holiday at the end of july somewhere nice and hot.

Obviously I can't wear shorts but I have gone right off the 3/4 length linen trews I've been wearing for yonks. I rather like palazzo types but would it not be a bit hot having all my legs covered up?
WHat do you think?

make up? god no. eyes too allergic to bloody everything to put anythingon

Cervix- you need to MAN UP woman

GOD YES
get some hypoallergenic stuff

All make up irritates my eyes, even the hypo allergenic stuff.

ok then well blush etc

dye your eyelashes for the LOVE OF GOD

and do your nails.
oh yesd
and de horn your hooves

how is our hair? #marjoriedawes

i'm trying cyb but a lifetime of being a dowdy hippy slob is against me.

nails are bitten short. feet OK. hair not bad.

Dresses rather than skirts and tops I reckon. One colour/pattern all the way down is better. Liked noddy's. Drapey/ruched jersey is what you want I think.

right go to cheapo nail place
get a file and polish
say " hello id like a file and polish please"
they will put colour on your nails. you WONT bite them then as they will look too purdy.

repeat every week. costs £5 ehre

i will bite them. i know i will. and can't wear colour cos of bastard work.

I tend to wear loose dresses and long line flowing tunics and thin leggings when I am on holiday.

is this everyday stuff od fancy schmancy AYC?

i bet you are wishing youd never started

another

hmm not sure i can do animal print.

nice top.
it's everyday stuff i ned. don't do fancy.

you lot are a bit bloody scary.

This is quite nice but smarter

this with leggings?

I love a lot of the Mantaray stuff actually

this with nice fitted jeans

I'm a Size 22. Just back from having a manicure and pedicure (very natural, nude colours this time - saving blue toenails for hols.) and eyelash tint. Do wear make-up but find it easier to tint lashes anyway. Am going to a party tomorrow, but that would be my normal pre-holiday drill too. Got highlights sorted earlier in week.

I also like my animal prints (probably wearing a Boden blue one tomorrow to party, if I don't wear a tea dress), and wear leggings, and have lots of tops which don't have cap sleeves, eg stripy tops I got at Style 369 - wll try to link. And love interesting accessories to style outfits.

If I can do these things, sure you can too. Some great suggestions for things to try above. Good hunting.

Maxi dresses don't flatter anyone, imho.
Even fat birds often have lovely calves & ankles, make the best of it.
Long tunic style top with leggings is good for that.
But I don't see a problem with 3/4 length, either.

slightly off topic but re: chaffig - use a roll on deodorant. it really works (might have to reapply half way through the day)

i chaffed in egypt in 1993 when i was a size 10. even then my thighs met in the middle. will try deo and some big pants.

On another thread saw Lanacane anti chafing gel recommended - also Avent liquid baby powder - haven't tried either.
